DEFENSE

Palmer Luckey, founder of Anduril Industries, argues that the U.S. can reduce defense spending by billions by focusing on output rather than costs. He made these statements during an interview at Singapore's Airshow, highlighting that measuring military strength in dollars is misleading.

Luckey's comments follow President Trump's proposal to increase the military budget to $1.5 trillion by 2027 to enhance U.S. military capabilities. Anduril Industries, founded in 2017, specializes in AI-driven defense technologies and is valued at $30.5 billion.
