Interesting 30min item on Palmer Luckey's Anduril and how he is planning to disrupt the (US) Defense industry. In my opinion, In the past few months Anduril had been launching some game changers in CUAS like the Roadrunner-M and Pulsar EW platforms. Anduril is in my opinion already disrupting the defense industry.Go Anduril! 🔥 #Anduril #CUAS #GuardFromAbove

Fun interview! Palmer Luckey def likes the same cool geeky things the rest of us out of the box thinkers like! It's probably why we have some of the same investors. ;) DreamHammer is also a native Southern California company. Maybe this innovation comes from a gamer, SoCal mindset. I worked for the Defense Department as a GS civilian that managed ACAT 1 programs, so I knew from the inside the issues with the DoD's acquisition process and its inability to acquire innovative, commercial tech and get it to the battlefield. Palmer had some interesting points I agree with on how the defense department and venture backed tech have not worked well together like they did in the past and shunned commercial tech innovation until more recent wars have proven our advocacy for commercially developed tech correct. I remember getting a call from a Navy Admiral in 2014 apologizing to me that there were no programmatic requirements in the US Navy for this type of drone innovation, even though they needed it badly and wanted to field it. In other words, there was no way to buy it! The Pentagon themselves pushed hard to help advocate funded requirements for innovative technology by spending millions demonstrating of our technology with major drone systems across all the armed services as well as with Defense Industry leaders such as Lockheed Martin, General Atomics, Boeing and Northrop Grumman and US Congress. The brilliant leader Lt. Gen David A. Deptula (ret.), ISR Chief of USAF at the time, saw the need immediately but the Air Force at the time was too busy focusing on remotely piloted aircraft, rather than swarms of autonomous drones controlled by single operators that could overwhelm enemy defenses or collect ISR extremely cost effectively. Well this type of Drone tech is winning battles in wars today but it didn't come from America. DreamHammer spent millions of dollars of its profit to create its commercial drone software tech that enabled the Pentagon and the defense industry to break silo's so any/all their autonomous systems can work together. WIRED covered it in 2012 (https://lnkd.in/e2cjSfcN), Bloomberg News covered it in 2013 (https://lnkd.in/eTV-mQ4E) and CNBC covered it in 2014 (https://lnkd.in/e85DqE-m), (https://lnkd.in/enwr6pWM). Today they call this Joint All Domain Command and Control. Even though it has taken more than 10 years, I am happy the DoD is finally moving in the right direction in its thinking about autonomous systems with commercial innovation and DreamHammer is excited to be working with the U.S. Defense Department to help give them the competitive edge they need for the future. Congrats to Anduril Industries and Peter Thiel for their work in helping to move the needle forward and joining the fight!

Legion versus Phalanx: The Epic Struggle for Infantry Supremacy in the Ancient World. Get the book UK at https://amzn.to/47xaa1x Get this book USA at https://amzn.to/47ReMPX From the time of Ancient Sumeria, the heavy infantry phalanx dominated the battlefield. Armed with spears or pikes, standing shoulder to shoulder with shields interlocking, the men of the phalanx presented an impenetrable wall of wood and metal to the enemy. Until, that is, the Roman legion emerged to challenge them as masters of infantry battle. Covering the period in which the legion and phalanx clashed (280-168 BC), Myke Cole delves into their tactics, arms and equipment, organization and deployment. Drawing on original primary sources to examine six battles in which the legion fought the phalanx - Heraclea (280 BC), Asculum (279 BC), Beneventum (275 BC), Cynoscephalae (197 BC), Magnesia (190 BC), and Pydna (168 BC) - he shows how and why the Roman legion, with its flexible organization, versatile tactics and iron discipline, came to eclipse the hitherto untouchable Hellenistic phalanx and dominate the ancient battlefield.
