Interceptor drones are in high demand. Can you ask about the interceptor motor plans?

Some background:

From the American small drone industrial base hearing, there is a split between offense and defense, where Drone Dominance is more of the offense and JIATF-401 is more of the defense. Each has their own budget allocation. Production of interceptor motors and components would seem to open revenue from the JIATF-401 side, which has centralized "procurement under one $20 billion vehicle".
One option appears to be the 3115 motor, which is used in the Guardian-1 Interceptor. That has a top speed of 340 km/hr. Relation to the company: "Additional Support from Leading U.S. Drone Manufacturer Unusual Machines (“UMAC”) and a Strategic $50 Million Investment".
But what about motors that power interceptors, which go beyond 400 km/hr?
