#245 Trae Stephens - Inside Anduril’s AI Superweapons: Eagle Eye Helmet and Autonomous Tech

And then it would just go and conduct a mission and then report back to you when it was seeing things that were interesting.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#245 Trae Stephens - Inside Anduril’s AI Superweapons: Eagle Eye Helmet and Autonomous Tech

And these are now deployed all over the place.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#245 Trae Stephens - Inside Anduril’s AI Superweapons: Eagle Eye Helmet and Autonomous Tech

They're deployed with U.S.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#245 Trae Stephens - Inside Anduril’s AI Superweapons: Eagle Eye Helmet and Autonomous Tech

forces abroad.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#245 Trae Stephens - Inside Anduril’s AI Superweapons: Eagle Eye Helmet and Autonomous Tech

They're also deployed in Ukraine.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#245 Trae Stephens - Inside Anduril’s AI Superweapons: Eagle Eye Helmet and Autonomous Tech

So it's become kind of a core product line for us.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#245 Trae Stephens - Inside Anduril’s AI Superweapons: Eagle Eye Helmet and Autonomous Tech

um and then we went from there into counter drone we started building uh interceptors for you know small drones we have a product called anvil that is uh the first version was not explosive it would just fly like a bowling ball into a drone and then we've continued to level that up into roadrunner which is kind of like a reusable interceptor um barracuda which is you know uh like a a missile more like an interceptor cruise missile

and kind of expanding that out over time.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#245 Trae Stephens - Inside Anduril’s AI Superweapons: Eagle Eye Helmet and Autonomous Tech

But the goal is really like all domain.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#245 Trae Stephens - Inside Anduril’s AI Superweapons: Eagle Eye Helmet and Autonomous Tech

Like you want to do, you know, work in space, work in air, work on ground, work on the surface of the sea, subsea.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#245 Trae Stephens - Inside Anduril’s AI Superweapons: Eagle Eye Helmet and Autonomous Tech

And Palmer's new obsession is subterranean, which, you know, not a lot of details that are shareable on that front yet.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#245 Trae Stephens - Inside Anduril’s AI Superweapons: Eagle Eye Helmet and Autonomous Tech

What are you guys doing in space?

The Shawn Ryan Show
#245 Trae Stephens - Inside Anduril’s AI Superweapons: Eagle Eye Helmet and Autonomous Tech

Actually, all of our space stuff is classified.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#245 Trae Stephens - Inside Anduril’s AI Superweapons: Eagle Eye Helmet and Autonomous Tech

So that's like the one domain that I can't really say much about.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#245 Trae Stephens - Inside Anduril’s AI Superweapons: Eagle Eye Helmet and Autonomous Tech

Yeah, so we have a whole platform called Dive, so different sizes.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#245 Trae Stephens - Inside Anduril’s AI Superweapons: Eagle Eye Helmet and Autonomous Tech

Dive LD, which is the largest diameter dive, is like the size of a pickup truck, basically.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#245 Trae Stephens - Inside Anduril’s AI Superweapons: Eagle Eye Helmet and Autonomous Tech

Again, same software.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#245 Trae Stephens - Inside Anduril’s AI Superweapons: Eagle Eye Helmet and Autonomous Tech

You send it out on missions, and it can do everything from pipeline inspection to, in theory, you could do kinetics.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#245 Trae Stephens - Inside Anduril’s AI Superweapons: Eagle Eye Helmet and Autonomous Tech

You could drive it into the side of an enemy warship.

The Shawn Ryan Show

We started a joint venture with the Australian Navy to build an extra large version of Dive that's called Dive XL, a really clever name.
