    Another ghoul-run ”defense” company with a Tolkien name? Totally not grifting.

      I hate it so much, and I’m dreading one of them using my kid’s name for some unimaginably barbaric techno-weapon.

    For the uninitiated, Anduril is a wunderwaffen DOD grift founded by boy wonder Palmer Luckey (yes that’s his real name, he’s named after two cigarettes), who became a billionaire in his early 20’s after inventing the Oculus Rift, because the simulation knows we are aware of it and is mocking us.

    If it’s anything like Anduril’s other drones it’s almost certainly a complete lemon

    glazing it with language like “unmanned fighter jet” instead of “drone” as if I’m supposed to jerk off about how Top Gun the murder bot is

      They probably named it like that to avoid the ridicule that is accumulating around huge and complicated US drones that are being destroyed in interesting ways, like Iran shooting it down with 60’s Soviet missile, Ansar Allah downing one every now and then with i guess Toyota Hilux or Russian pilots pissing some fuel at it causing it to fall in the sea.

      Also it’s totally not a drone, it’s fighter jet! Meaning mostly price will be 3 times more.
