PET YOUR PUSSY! SHUN WAR!
Two years ago I came up with the vision of Drone Warfare in my James Bond book ‘The Royal Janitor’. This morning I read that Anduril was given $20 billion dollars of taxpayers money to STOP the rise of oil prices – for one thing – thanks to Trump. I see The Devil using money he took from Seniors on Medicaid.
I was going to give away MY PEACE PLAN……FOR FREE! No way! I am asking..
ONE BILLION DOLLARS
My Peace Plan will be revealed at the end of my Bond Movie. So, Jeff Besoz, get to work. Send a team to my apartment with a movie contract.
Note the date Anduril bought Blue Force. Did I psychically detect this? Cross my palm with silver, and I will tell you!
I AM JOHN
“Cross my palm with silver” is an idiom meaning to pay someone money, historically a fortuneteller, to receive a service or have your fortune told. It stems from an old practice of placing coins in a gypsy’s hand and is sometimes used today to refer to tips or bribes.

Anduril CEO Palmer Luckey
At a time when the world is witnessing a war between the US and Iran, the US Army has announced a contract with defense tech startup Anduril Industries, essentially cementing the role of Silicon Valley-style software in modern warfare. The Pentagon has recently used AI models by Anthropic as well as technology provided by Palantir to support US military operations in Iran, and announced a partnership with OpenAI.The 10-year agreement begins with a five-year “base period,” with an option for the Army to extend it for another five. The deal could be worth as much as $20 billion over the next decade, however, “this amount represents the maximum potential value, not an obligated amount.”

The deal covers everything from Anduril’s hardware and autonomous drones to the complex software and infrastructure that connects them.
‘New contract consolidates 120 procurement actions’
For years, the Department of Defense (DoD) has had multiple bureaucratic buying processes. This new agreement fixes that by consolidating what were previously 120 separate small contracts into one single, streamlined “enterprise” deal.The U.S. Army awarded Anduril a new enterprise contract to consolidate the procurement and management of the company’s commercially available technologies. This strategic move will streamline operations, reduce administrative costs, and accelerate the fielding of critical capabilities to Warfighters and other stakeholders across the U.S. Government.Previously, the Department of War managed more than 120 separate procurement actions for Anduril’s commercial solutions. The new enterprise contract consolidates contracts and agreements into a single contractual framework, eliminating pass-through charges on subcontracts. This streamlined approach reduces procurement timelines, ensuring Soldiers have rapid access to cutting-edge software platforms, integrated hardware, data and compute infrastructure, and a full range of ancillary support services.It also provides detailed strategic, operational, and tactical capabilities to the Army through existing data integration with hundreds of Joint and Army systems.The reason for the change is simple: the nature of war has changed.
“The modern battlefield is increasingly defined by software. To maintain our advantage, we must be able to acquire and deploy software capabilities with speed and efficiency. Enterprise contracts are a key part of our modernization strategy, allowing us to consolidate software agreements, eliminate redundancies, and accelerate the delivery of critical tools,” said Gabe Chiulli, chief technology officer for the Office of the Chief Information Officer.The US Army also said that to ensure ongoing innovation and optimal performance, it is evaluating emerging technologies.

Anduril acquires Blue Force Technologies, the company behind the Fury unmanned fighter jet
Date Published:March 13, 2024
Venture-backed defense giant Anduril Industries is acquiring Blue Force Technologies, the advanced design and engineering firm behind the “Fury” unmanned fighter jet, as the company looks to build out its suite of autonomous systems for national security customers.
The new acquisition positions Anduril to take advantage of what chief strategy officer Christian Brose called “the most important space with regard to autonomous aircraft.”
Autonomous fighter jets have “the attributes that you’re going to need to be relevant to what everybody is focused on right now: the pacing threat of China, competition in the Indo-Pacific theater,” he said. In those theaters, capabilities like long-range, speed and greater payload capacity — capabilities of a fighter jet — are key.
Manned fighter jets, like Lockheed Martin’s F-35, are enormously expensive, exquisite systems: Last year, Lockheed inked a deal for 398 aircraft at a cost of $30 billion. Anduril is envisioning something different for Fury — and for the rest of the unmanned systems in its product line. That vision includes lower-cost systems, built at a high volume, with zero human operator on board.
“[Fury] doesn’t cost what an F-35 costs,” Brose said. “Not even close.”
Once it eventually starts flying, Fury will run on Anduril’s Lattice AI-powered software, as do all of the company’s other systems (and many third-party platforms). As the name suggests, Lattice acts as an overarching orchestrator for unmanned system operations; the company said earlier this year that its Lattice for Mission Autonomy platform will enable a single human operator to coordinate autonomous assets at the same time.
The new acquisition also provides Anduril key expansion into North Carolina’s Research Triangle area, where Blue Force is based, and access to their around 90-person team. While the Fury jet is one of Blue Force’s centerpiece technologies, Anduril will no doubt also benefit from the company’s composite manufacturing, tooling and production capabilities.
“We as Anduril intend to really pour significant capital and investment into the company,” Brose said. “Our thesis on acquisitions is, we don’t buy fixer uppers […] We are looking to acquire teams and technologies that have the ability to do additional great things for the company and the country moving forward.”
The terms of the deal were not disclosed. The new acquisition comes a little over two months after Anduril announced it was buying solid rocket motor company Adranos. Acquisitions are clearly a key part of the company’s growth strategy: Other buys include Dive Technologies, an autonomous underwater vehicle developer; passive sensing company Copious Imaging; and unmanned surveillance drone startup Area-I.
