TL;DR
Defence tech start-up Anduril doubles valuation to over $60bn Anduril Raises $5 Billion in Funding and Is Valued at $61 Billion Anduril Doubles Valuation to $61 Billion With Latest Funding Interestingly, as much as Anduril is the clear-cut winner among VC investors, the Department of Defense is already giving signs that it won’t lock itself into any one rising-star startup. Shield AI, another U.S. drone company, recently had its software selected by the Air Force to work with Anduril’s “Fury” autonomous fighter jet, rather than granting the whole hardware and software contract to either one of them.
