Palantir and Anduril reportedly building a tech consortium to bid on defense contracts

Two big defense tech players, Palantir and Anduril, are talking to tech companies including SpaceX, OpenAI, Saronic, and Scale AI about forming a consortium to bid on Pentagon contracts, according to a report in the Financial Times.

The goal, the FT says, is to challenge the dominance of “prime” defense contractors like Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, and Boeing. One unnamed participant described this as an effort to “provide a new generation of defense contractors,” while another said this will be a more efficient way to sell the government cutting-edge weapons and other tech.
