Oh well if the CEO says so

Edit: To be clear, you have read what’s not being said: no agency is funding this or taking delivery of anything. With internal R&D you can make any outlandish claims and no one can call you out on it. (Under contract R&D, your outlandish claims are tied to a statement of work.)



You are simply wrong. Multiple US military customers have been taking delivery of Pulsar for years now. Why make things up?


Multiple, you say? Do these customers have names? Contract vehicles? You know, the normal stuff you put in a press release when there’s a new delivered capability?


As I told you hours ago in response to your other false claims, some of Pulsar's contracts are publicly disclosed and go back years. This isn't a "new delivered capability", that is just another instance of you making something up that has nothing to do with reality.

Doubling down on this is really dumb, Anduril obviously wouldn't be publicly stating that Pulsar has deployed to combat if it wasn't true. Your critique isn't just wrong, it doesn't even make sense.


The press release certainly implies new. Announcement! Dateline: yesterday! First of kind! Doesn’t sound mature or established. Not “USAF selects for phase 3 follow-on USD300MM IDIQ“.

And they don’t actually state it’s been deployed to combat. Did you notice the careful wording? They’ve been “developing it to support operational combat” etc. Not that a DoD customer actually bought and deployed it in combat.
