"The autonomous boats built by HD Hyundai with Anduril autonomous software will be assembled in the former Foss Shipyard, just east of the Ballard Bridge. Anduril said it has invested "tens of millions of dollars" to revamp the retired shipyard, which will serve as the initial hub for HD Hyundai and Anduril."
""The Pacific Northwest, home to the wartime legacy of Kaiser Shipyards and the original Freedom’s Forge, offers the infrastructure, supply chain depth, and skilled labor to expand U.S. shipbuilding capacity," Anduril said in a November news release. "The region provides the ideal conditions to re-energize American shipbuilding and grow the maritime workforce.""

qwant news | How Silicon Valley and Private Finance Are Reshaping War
AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
The article exposes how Silicon Valley’s venture‑capital and private‑equity networks have become tightly intertwined with the U.S. military‑industrial complex, reshaping modern warfare through a flood of private capital into Pentagon budgets, senior defense appointments, and new DOD innovation units that fast‑track start‑ups into weapons contracts. It details the placement of tech executives and investors in top military positions, the creation of financing programs such as the Economic Defense Unit and the Office of Strategic Capital that channel billions of dollars to VC‑backed war tech firms, and the adoption of streamlined procurement tools that bypass traditional regulations. This financialization has turned the Pentagon into a lucrative “slush fund” for investors, redirected venture capital from consumer tech to military hardware, and driven a paradigm shift in how war is funded, developed, and executed—linking profit‑driven finance directly to the planning and deployment of U.S. military power.
