The head of this company was on Rogan a few weeks ago. He was an interesting guy. It was worth dragging through Rogans usual BS.

One of the things he tries to do is build his products using machinery and materials that could be used in any major manufacturing facility. He pointed to how GM and Ford changed their manufacturing from cars to war material in WWII. This would be critical in any kind of longer conflict where we are not just burning through inventory.

I am pretty sure he wasn’t referring to THESE drones…but to the mid level arms that his company makes.

two years too late to “compete” with Anduril and General Atomics ...

“Boeing announced earlier this month it was designing a tiltrotor drone wingman to support the Army’s helicopter fleet.”

“designing” ...
