Anduril Industries CEO Brian Schimpf says the company is open to building its next weapons manufacturing hub outside the United States. Speaking at Founders Forum in the UK, Schimpf told Bloomberg that Anduril would “absolutely” consider relocating or establishing a future manufacturing hub in another country. He pointed to the availability of manufacturing talent beyond the US, noting that skills and capacity exist across Europe. The company’s remarks do not specify where a new hub could be located, nor do they describe timelines, government partnerships, or changes to its existing operations. Anduril, a defense technology startup, is known for producing military-related systems and components, and its manufacturing footprint is closely watched by industry and policymakers as defense demand and procurement requirements evolve. Schimpf’s comments frame the discussion as a potential expansion or relocation option rather than a finalized decision, with the focus on leveraging manufacturing talent in regions outside the US.
