Palmer Luckey is sandbagging the US Military's ability to roundhouse kick Russia's army into a woodchipper, in terms of drone production.
Ukraine makes a drone for $250:

Palmer Luckey's is hailed as the Messsiah of US Defense manufacturing.

He sells an equivalent drone:

For twice the price:

The only reason the US is losing the Ukraine war against Russia is because scammers in the defense industry like Palmer Luckey are giving inflated numbers to politicians about how much it would cost to win the war in Ukraine.
Here's a 3dtech drone that costs $721:
https://www.3dtech.com.ua/en/catalog/khyzhak-reboff-10-lite-10km
Anduril doesn't even make a fiber optic drone
Palmer Luckey was also supposed to make an American made clone of the $20,000 HESA Shahed 136 Drone used by Russia and Iran.
https://www.twz.com/air/army-absolutely-needs-shahed-like-drones-pacaf-general
Iran makes these things for $20,000 per unit. Anduril sells their equivalent, the Altius 600-M, which performs worse in range, warhead size, loitering capacity, and speed, for $1,000,000 per unit.
https://thedefensepost.com/2024/11/01/taiwan-attack-drones-us/
The US is not ever going to win any war as long as we are getting scammed by these fucking companies. And in all of this, Anduril is somehow celebrated as "the answer" to all the other even more wasteful defense companies.

Anduril is a VC wedge attack on existing US defense capabilities. They aren't the defense industry and aren't as capable as the actual primes in terms of ability to produce products with superior performance at scale.

But they are winning contracts and sinking talent from the primes, so they should be expected to close the gap with the existing primes eventually.. though they lack the real IP to compete with the big boys on immaculate stealthy platforms.

>So, a report from the UK estimated that the Ukrainians are burning through about 10,000 drones a month, and it just goes to show the incredible dominance of small drones in this war, how quickly they become useless, either because they are knocked out of the sky, they are lost, or in this electronic warfare environment, the drones just stop working. So, they are just turning through these drones incredibly fast, and that means that stuff that is cheap, a few hundred dollars, in the case of the homegrown Ukrainian drones, a lot of them around $400, a couple thousand dollars for the Chinese drones.
Everything the US defense industry is building is twenty times market price.
DEPORT DEFENSE INDUSTRY CEOs.

>>522074248
a couple thousand dollars for the Chinese drones. That's the price tag they need if they're going to be often using these just once. The American drones can be tens of thousands of dollars more than that a piece. You can't do that and throw it up in the sky and lose it. That's one of the many problems that the Ukrainians have encountered with the US drones that have been sent over there.
FIFTY TIMES OVER BUDGET MINIMUM

Oh you can hear me, grandpa? The lead in the gasoline worked its magic and gave you psy powers. Try to channel what little neuroplasticity you have left and give an opinion on Anduril or Luckey. Or do you need to wait for the media to give you your opinion?

$1,000,000/$20,000=50 times more expensive than the Russia/Iran equivalent

They charge so much that in theory anyone could undercut them and get the contracts and yet decades pass with no one doing it. Why? What is the barrier to entry here that no one steps up to charge the government a paltry 25 times what a product is worth instead of 50?

It seems like everyone on 4chan took the last 15 years to get over calling themselves autistic for realizing they were just smarter than everyone else for seeing through some really conspicuous lies that were sold to the public by pretty much every big company.
I saw reddit posts for like ten years saying you were a crazy retard for mentioning chemtrails for like ten years. Now I know reddit was run by Ghislaine Maxwell and Palantir (new name for Ghislaine Maxwell's Chiliad Inc) just got caught using cloud seeding to send a flood to a children's summer camp.

So in order to not just be a sheep, you have to do cognitive reframing excercises every morning for like an hour to remind yourself to see the world the way you want to see it, that you are a great man and you are going to take that profit and make it yours. And that you are going to have to be one of those people who reads books instead of going on social media for fun. If you meet someone who has a reddit mindset, or a doomer, or someone jewing you, you have to able to recognize that and totally cut off that person's ability to influence you, or they'll warp your mind back into sheep-mind.
You might need business partners. So maybe your entire job will be creating a "start up culture" that defies the scam artist, sheep-minded, doomer, shabbos goy paradigm. Maybe that's what it means to be a great man.

I used to love the song it sampled when I was bluepilled
I was just about to listen to it again for old time's sake when I found this new one
Now I can listen to the same instrumental with redpilled lyrics

Yep, Russia produces comparable weapons but much cheaper. USA is taking out the competition

This is why I support Trump.
More Trump means more Netanyahu. More Netanyahu means more war in Israel. That means Jews in Israel have to fight a war themselves, instead of having the US fight a proxy war in the Middle East for them. It also means US zionists have to face the fact that the US left is anti-zionist, so if they support Israel, they have to also be anti-immigrant and support closed borders for the US. Yeah it's 4d chess and I can also imagine the apple spinning in my head.
