Anduril Would Consider Building Its Next Weapons Hub Outside the US
Anduril CEO Brian Schimpf told Bloomberg’s John Micklethwait that the defense company would “absolutely” consider building a future weapons manufacturing hub in an allied country outside the US. Schimpf argued that allies need a more predictable way to buy and receive weapons, and said Europe has manufacturing talent Anduril could draw on. His broader case is that defense production depends not just on factory space, but on designing weapons, supply chains and assembly processes that can scale and localize more easily.
