It's "go time" for Anduril after defense-tech hat trick

"Over the last eight years, Anduril has been consistent in our view of modern warfare: The physics of the battlefield have changed, permanently. Projecting power increasingly demands the ability to amass tons of effects over long distances,"

"We are not celebrating views shifting towards our way of thinking. The proof is whether you can build, whether you can scale. It's go time."

"I'd be having some really hard meetings with my investors, who had been insisting for quite a while that this seemed to be the continuation of me having a pissing contest with Meta over who can build better head-mounted displays."

Anduril holds that the physics of the battlefield have changed permanently and that projecting power increasingly requires amassing large numbers of effects over long distances. Superior software combined with massive quantities of hardware is described as indispensable to that capability. Recent contracts include a $1.1 billion deal for Australian Ghost Shark extra-large autonomous submarines and a $159 million prototyping arrangement for the U.S. Army Soldier Borne Mission Command effort. Anduril also secured a contract for conceptual designs of U.S. Navy drone wingmen while competing firms pursue related work. The company plans rapid delivery and scaling of these systems.
