4 claims in “defense, technology”
Anduril has developed the X-47 collaborative combat aircraft (called Fury or FQ-44), an autonomous fighter jet that flies alongside manned fighters, extending their weapons and sensor reach while engaging in high-risk missions, and achieved first flight in 556 days from contract signature—the fastest new fighter development since the Korean War.
Anduril's XL Uncrewed Underwater Vehicle (Ghost Shark in Australia, XL UUV in US) is a fully autonomous submarine with no humans on board or remote control, capable of being programmed with waypoints and mission objectives including payload drops and autonomous surfacing.
Drone defense is difficult because you cannot defend against 10,000 drones with a single $20 million missile; you need counter-drone technology and hacking capabilities.
Drone development extends beyond air: underwater drones, land drones, and drones in all environments are being developed, along with swarm autonomy and AI-powered coordination, representing a complete redefinition of warfare.
