Anduril Eyes $60B+ Valuation in Major Funding Raise, THRIVE IN AUTONOMOUS DEFENSE

Anduril Inc. (ANDR) is in advanced discussions to raise billions in new funding at a valuation of at least $60 billion, according to The Information, citing知情 sources. This would roughly double its $30.5 billion valuation from last June’s $2.5 billion round and provide greater capital to construct its first major weapons-manufacturing facility and advance development of an autonomous fighter jet. The funding would support expansion into large-scale production and next-generation unmanned systems, amid heightened interest in low-cost, autonomous defense solutions. Anduril, founded in 2017 and backed by Founders Fund, develops a range of sensors and drones and has gained traction as traditional defense spending seeks modernization.
