Anduril has talked about bringing startup attitude to the defense industry. July 2026 for this factory to begin limited production seems pretty slow (easy for me to say). We need thousands of Barracuda 500m’s with Red Dragon capabilities by 2027 to deter China.

Palmer Luckey simply amazes me. He will eventually be viewed as our country’s hero. I’m sad to say it will take a global conflict for that to happen.

Palmer must get a very good security team as he’s put himself on a target board for foreign adversaries. He’s emerged as a very credible and serious threat with his tactics of fast manufacturing processes.
