Anduril Founder Palmer Luckey on China’s Hidden “Ghost Fleet”: “China has 350x more shipbuilding capacity than the United States.” “Because in China, the law says that all commercial vessels have to meet military standards.” “They foresee a world where they’re going to nationalize their entire domestic fleet in a...

Blinken finally said the quiet part out loud: The United States cannot defeat China alone. So his solution is not to outbuild, outproduce, or outcompete China. It is to assemble Europe, Japan, South Korea, India, Canada, and Australia into a larger anti-China bloc—then disguise containment as “alliance coordination.” That is the entire strategy: America alone is no longer strong enough, so Washington wants to weaponize everyone else’s anxieties. But here is the darkest joke. While Blinken dreams of mobilizing the world against China, global opinion is moving in the opposite direction. Pew polling now shows China viewed more positively than the United States across many countries. Even in Europe—America’s traditional alliance base—China’s favorability has risen above America’s. So Washington has a structural problem: It wants to lead an anti-China coalition at the exact moment more of the world trusts China than the country demanding that coalition. Blinken calls this “working with friends.” China calls it what it is: An empire that can no longer win alone asking its clients to supply the missing weight. America’s alliances were supposed to prove its leadership. Now they increasingly reveal its dependence. China is competing with the United States. The United States is recruiting the world to compensate for the fact that it cannot compete with China by itself. Yet the funniest meltdown did not come from American rednecks. It came from overseas Chinese opportunists who built their entire identity around hating China. Blinken merely admitted that America cannot defeat China alone, and they immediately accused him of being “brainwashed” and spreading “Chinese propaganda.” Their problem is not China. Their problem is that China’s rise has destroyed the psychological mechanism they depend on for survival: the belief that America must always stand above China—because without that hierarchy, their entire borrowed identity collapses.

Anduril Founder Palmer Luckey on China’s Critical Threat Against the U.S. Military: “They’re building weapons that are sometimes better than ours, for a tenth of the price, and 100x the scale.” “The real power of the Chinese military is their ability to manufacture… unfortunately, right now they are very much on the right side of the equation.” “Anti-ship missiles are a huge concern… it’s very hard to defend against them. Even if you can defend against one, can you defend against 10? Can you defend against 100?” “When our aircraft carriers cost billions of dollars, you can justify throwing a lot of missiles at it and it still makes sense, from China’s perspective.” “I don’t think China’s gonna go for a Pearl Harbor. But what they probably could do is deny the U.S. Navy the ability to operate in any area that they make a priority… if [China] makes enough hypersonic anti-ship missiles.” “What happens is, not the destruction of the U.S. Navy, but the neutering of the U.S. Navy. We realize we can’t actually use [our ships], so they sit somewhere else, watching Taiwan get invaded.” “The United States has a lot of missiles that are excellent… but we don’t make enough of them.” “This is the Anduril mission problem… how do we do these things cheaper, better, and faster?” “This is why [Anduril] is investing in building missiles and missile systems. We need something like 100x more capacity than we currently have.” Rebuild The Arsenal. 🇺🇸

Anduril President Chris Brose on Critical Lessons from Ukraine for a Future War With China: “Most of those [FPV drones] are not gonna make it a quarter of the way across the Taiwan strait.” “For a generation we’ve been planning, as a nation, that we are going to fight short wars.” “So we’re not gonna have to shoot a lot of things, not gonna lose a lot of things, not gonna have to replace and replenish a lot of things.” “[But] if you look at the war in Ukraine [and] most wars that the United States has been involved in over the course of our history, they do not follow that logic.” “Those are the lessons that need to transition into Indo-Pacific.” “The challenge then becomes… the geography of that region is wildly different than the battlefield in Ukraine.” “You have a lot more water than land, enormously long distances, a far more capable adversary.” “I see a lot of folks go awry, which is like: ‘We’ve got these amazing first person view drones… we’ll lift and shift from Ukraine to the Indo-Pacific.’” “[U.S. weapons against China], they’re gonna have to have a lot more size, weight, and power. They’re gonna have to traverse much longer distances [and] remain on the battlefield for a lot longer.” “[At Anduril], we are putting to work literally billions of dollars to build the capacity to do this. This is exactly what the Arsenal-1 production facility in Ohio will be doing.” Rebuild The Arsenal. 🇺🇸
