Anduril, a defense tech company, secured a $2.9 billion contract with the U.S. Navy shortly after co-founder Palmer Luckey was named to a Pentagon warfare study group. Despite concerns about Luckey's Republican ties and donations, CEO Brian Schimpf emphasized that contracts are awarded through competitive, merit-based processes. The company recently valued at $90 billion, is expanding defense production and plans to eventually go public, focusing on advanced autonomous defense technologies.
