With Anduril’s help, Australia has done what the U.S. Navy has struggled to accomplish: transition an extra-large undersea drone from white board to under contract in just three years. Anduril announced Tuesday that a fleet of its XL uncrewed undersea vehicle (XLUUV) “Ghost Shark” will begin operations in Australian waters next year under a massive AUS$1.7 billion (US$1.1 billion) contract. The five-year award structure is the defense-startup holy grail; it’s a program of record that essential

Dynamic Duo Zuckerberg and Palmer Luckey Reunite for Army Combat Goggles Contract

gizmodo.com Aj Dellinger 2025-10-06 19:20:20

Despite spending billions of dollars to make it happen, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Oculus founder Palmer Luckey were never able to make virtual reality a profitable consumer product. Teamed up again, the pair have found an audience that is more comfortable with spending lots of money for slow development timelines and little return: the US Army. According to a report from Bloomberg, Luckey’s Anduril Industries and Zuck’s Meta Platforms were among three companies tapped to produce prototypes fo

This article features first-ever photos taken from inside Anduril’s R&D facilities in Costa Mesa, California. All photos by Ryan Young.

techcrunch.com Aria Alamalhodaei 2025-11-02 11:11:37

Blue Origin and Anduril have landed new study contracts with the U.S. Air Force to explore how their technology, including rockets, could move military cargo around the world. The contracts under the Air Force’s Rocket Cargo program are relatively small — Blue Origin’s comes in at $1.37 million and Anduril’s at $1 million. But they could be the first steps in revolutionizing how the Pentagon transports cargo. Study contracts like these are also a strong signal as to which players will later c

Trump Wants Border Surveillance Towers That Only Palmer Luckey Can Build

gizmodo.com Aj Dellinger 2026-01-23 04:35:56

Part of Donald Trump’s One Big, Beautiful Bill—the massive spending bill that will make permanent tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans while gutting social services like Medicaid—calls for new surveillance towers for U.S. Customs and Border Protection to use on the northern and southern borders. That’s pretty standard procedure, except for one catch that The Intercept picked up on: the description of the project basically only fits the work of Palmer Luckey’s Anduril Industries. The provision

"We are running this company to be the shape of a publicly traded company." He added that there isn't "really a path" for a company like Anduril to win significant trillion-dollar defense contracts without going public. Luckey did not detail an IPO timeline. Since its founding, Anduril has risen
