Positioning

Anduril is a privately controlled U.S. defense-technology company combining autonomous aircraft, maritime systems, weapons, counter-UAS products and the Lattice command-and-control platform, with reach across the United States, Australia, the United Kingdom, NATO, the UAE and other allied customers. Its 2025-26 trajectory includes $2.2 billion of 2025 revenue, a $5 billion Series H at a $61 billion valuation in May 2026, first completed Fury production at Arsenal-1 in July 2026, a Golden Dome space-interceptor consortium, and a September 2026 warning that Fury production contracts require FY2027 appropriations. The distinguishing point is its attempt to become a vertically integrated, high-rate defense prime; the open question is whether production, profitability and government-program execution can keep pace with its valuation and expansion.
