557 days ago, Arsenal-1 didn't exist. Today, the first YFQ-44A built in Ohio rolled off the production line.

New test footage: first missile shot from YFQ-44A. YFQ-44A executed an end-to-end, beyond-line-of-sight strike against a simulated target. The test, executed out of @EdwardsAFB, represents an important step in turning CCA into an operational capability.

Turns out the "Heart of It All" is a great place for business! Nice to see the rankings catch up. Congrats to @GovMikeDeWine, @JobsOhio, and the many public and private leaders who've spent years making Ohio a place to build. It's time to build some robot fighter planes.
In 2010, @CNBC ranked Ohio as 34th in the nation for business. Since then, Ohio has strived to create the most competitive business climate in America, and we've steadily climbed in the rankings since I've been governor. As America's Top State for Business, Ohio offers a strong economy, great quality of life, low cost of living, and countless opportunities. #OhiotheHeartofitAll Read our news release➡️bit.ly/4yknKU3 @JobsOhio @LtGovJimTressel @OhioDevelopment

Ohio built the American arsenal once. It can do it again. The workforce is here. The industrial base is here. The mission is here. Build faster. Scale harder.
To rebuild the arsenal, we must hyperscale manufacturing. Shorten the Build Chain. Close the Kill Chain.

Double tapping on hiring for Barracuda in Ohio: anduril.com/open-roles?searc…
Many people don't understand the scale @SecWar is demanding. The United States has built less than 40,000 cruise missiles, ever, since the Army asked the Dayton-Wright Company to manufacture an Aerial Torpedo in 1917. The more time passes, the fewer we make and the more they cost. Leaders like DepSecWar Feinberg and @USWREMichael are actually responding to foreign threats and giving clear demand signal that is bringing billions of dollars of private capital into solving this problem. Now America will manufacture more cruise missiles in the next three years than the last 30 years combined, at a fraction of the cost. We are in the middle of hiring for Barracuda production at Arsenal-1 starting later this year, please hit us up if this mission is one you can be passionate about.

Today we’re announcing the AI Grand Prix. The fully autonomous drone racing competition inviting the boldest engineers from around the globe to compete for $500,000 and a job at Anduril. No human pilots. No hardware mods. Identical @neros_tech drones. Software is the only path to victory. If you win, it’s because your autonomy stack is better. Full stop. Season 1 kicks off this spring, leading up to the AI Grand Prix Ohio.

Had a great time visiting and talking with students about what we’re building at @anduriltech's Arsenal-1 campus in @pickawayohio and the different paths into tech and defense. Thanks for having us! @P3Progress @PickawayWORKS @CBUSRegion
We welcomed members of Anduril's Fury Launch Team yesterday. Students had the opportunity to learn about the innovative defense technology products Anduril is developing and hear about the career opportunities available to them, including pathways that begin out of high school.

A meaningful example of what it means to build WITH a community, not just IN it. Connecting @TV_HS_ students to real opportunities at @anduriltech's Arsenal-1 is how we strengthen the local talent pipeline here in @PickawayCounty, @CBUSRegion.
Some of @anduriltech's production team visited Teays Valley High School near our Arsenal-1 site to see some very cool engineering projects and talk about career opportunities with Anduril... Exciting progress in Ohio!

Think of Radical Candor as basic maintenance, like brushing your teeth. If you do it every day things will progress much better than if you avoid it for weeks, months or years. #RadicalCandor #TheMoreYouKnow #FeedbackFriday #RootCanal
