Founded in 2017, Anduril has rapidly scaled to a global workforce of 7,000 employees operating across 35 offices to manufacture autonomous defense systems like the Ghost Shark submarine and Fury aerial vehicle. The company leverages an iterative R&D model and dedicated facilities in Rhode Island and Sydney to transition from rapid prototyping to mass production of AI-enabled battlefield ecosystems. Led by CEO Brian and co-founder Palmer Luckey, Anduril focuses on building a cohesive command network that integrates ground, air, and soldier-borne compute nodes to execute large-scale military contracts.
Anduril CEO Brian Schimpf on $1B+ Revenue & Still Doubling
Anduril, now a $30 billion company employing 7,000 people, is capitalizing on a shifting global security landscape by deploying its Lattice software platform to manufacture autonomous systems at commercial scales for land, air, and sea domains. Through a meritocratic culture that rejects legacy cost-plus contracting, leadership prioritizes fixed-price deals and localized supply chains to accelerate the delivery of affordable, high-volume technologies like the "Ghost Shark" drone in Australia. With US procurement spending lagging behind historic defense needs, the firm is positioning itself as a primary engine for the international transition toward rapid industrial production and software-driven warfare.

Anduril is rapidly scaling its autonomous defense capabilities through massive manufacturing expansions in Ohio and globally, driven by a strategic shift toward industrial speed and affordability over traditional technological edge. Key programs like the Fury autonomous fighter and Ghost Shark underwater vehicle demonstrate the company's ability to outpace legacy contractors such as Boeing and Lockheed Martin while addressing critical capability gaps for allies like Australia. By redefining the defense industry as a product-focused enterprise, the firm aims to transform the U.S. production base into a decisive wartime asset capable of mass-producing systems that integrate AI, optical camouflage, and distributed command structures.
