.Hadrian founder Chris Power says every U.S. war game ends the same way: we exhaust our munitions in 7 days and require 2–3 years to replenish. America’s enduring edge is scale and velocity. If we channel that into manufacturing with flexible factories, software automation, and attritable mass, the 7-day... show more

"We don't have enough machinists. We don't have enough quality inspectors. We don't have enough welders in the country." Hadrian CEO Chris Power on how a modern software-driven factory works differently from traditional manufacturing: "At that task level, we have to get them 90% more productive." "If you want to train a Navy welder today it's going to take you a decade. So we have to augment the skills with software." "The flexibility to constructing something like a submarine demands is incredibly what we call high-mix, low-volume." "If you're building a Toyota Camry you're making 20,000 of them a year... You can easily automate a million iPhones." "What the software enables is running at that level of factory productivity but with the flexibility that something like a submarine demands." "So it's really the velocity and agility and reducing the amount of people because we just don't have the people in the US." "We have to get this productivity uplift with software and a new workforce." Chris Power Hadrian David Ulevitch 🇺🇸

China Has Mass. Can America Catch Up? If a Taiwan war were to break out, the US would run out of high-end munitions in about 8 days. Currently, China is far outpacing us on raw scale. They have more personnel, more missiles, and more than 200 times the shipbuilding capacity. We sat down with Anduril Industries CEO Brian Schimpf and Hadrian CEO Chris Power to talk about what it’s going to take to make the American defense base the best in the world once again. 00:00 The myth of technical superiority 03:31 The erosion of US manufacturing 08:31 The skilled labor crisis 17:57 Supply chain vulnerabilities 36:49 Financial engineering vs. industrial policy 46:55 The Taiwan scenario & war gaming 52:55 Demographics, economics, and CCP strategy Brian Schimpf Chris Power Erik Torenberg benahorowitz.eth Marc Andreessen 🇺🇸

"One of the smartest things we could be doing is... a single accountable person that just runs this, instead of 20 people trying to contribute." Chris Power on what changed when the U.S. started moving faster on defense manufacturing: "I would say three years ago, it was incredibly difficult." "And now honestly, to pull something like this off for the last six, seven months… compared to the size and scale of something like this, if you're in the commercial sector, is pretty fast." "Congress, both Senate and the House, the Navy, the Department of War, has really hit the go fast button and removed a lot of these blockers." "There is now a single person in command to control the entire enterprise." "They can make fast decisions, take risks, place multiple bets." "That's not possible unless there's a single man or woman in charge." Chris Power Hadrian David Ulevitch 🇺🇸

Why doesn't Hadrian pivot to AI infrastructure? CEO Chris Power says it would be a "disservice to the mission," given the scale of demand to reindustrialize. "We have so much demand across submarines, munitions, drones, the industrial base, and energetics that any market pivot would be doing a disservice to the mission."

BREAKING: Chris Power CEO of Hadrian says “Everyone should tell their kids to quit college & get welding degrees” "The country needs you." “The next 2 decades is blue collar.” Hadrian is also bringing back Pepperidge Farms & baking. “All the white-collar jobs are going to get automated.” “We’re gonna see massive hyperinflation in blue-collar salaries.” "I think one of the greatest opportunities for private capital — apart from public-private investment alongside the Department of War (Department of War 🇺🇸) — is to build Chick-fil-A’s & bars around all of our factories. That’s free alpha. Please come set up franchises around all of our factories. We need to eat so we can work harder for the country."

What does Hadrian actually do? Chris Power explains: “For our core manufacturing business, it’s high-precision machining. We work with America’s largest scaled primes. Anyone you’d see building fighter jets, drones, munitions, weapons platforms, missiles, commercial aircraft.” “We are fastly becoming their fastest-growing and most important supplier.” “For our government business, what we’re primarily focused on is naval applications where there’s a huge scarcity of a skilled workforce and we just can’t get submarines or ships in the water fast enough.”

Anduril CEO Brian Schimpf with Hadrian Founder Chris Power on The Taiwan Invasion Scenario: “America has a very hard challenge.” China has invested in technology that pushes back the U.S. and creates an impenetrable bubble around Taiwan. They have space-based sensing and “Carrier Killer Missiles” that put U.S. carriers and warships at serious risk. Xi Jinping has stated that he wants his military ready by 2027 and will reunify by force if necessary. To deter the CCP the U.S. needs to make it clear that Taiwan is prepared to counter an invasion. The U.S. must focus on counteracting China’s space-based sensing while manufacturing large amounts of attritable systems until China’s population collapses.

The future of manufacturing is expressive. We’re building elastic factories that think, learn, and create. Factories where design freedom meets production speed. Where AI and robotics form metal with precision and intent. No tooling. No limits. This is what we mean by Expressive Manufacturing: Production that adapts to design intent on demand and on location. Reindustrialization 2.0 is rebuilding manufacturing in the U.S. in a way that empowers creativity, adaptability, and imagination at scale.

Anish Acharya: We're going to see a "YouTube moment for software": "If you think about YouTube 20 years ago—we had lots of video and lots of television, and it was high production quality, and it wasn't clear that we needed more and 20 years later, YouTube's a $550 billion enterprise that would be one of the biggest companies in the world if it was independent." "I think the same thing is going to happen for software. People want to make software, and for the first time they can—and they can distribute it and they can consume it." "Sometimes it's going to be important software. Sometimes it's going to be totally trivial. It's going to be software for a bachelor party weekend, software for a joke, software for a prompt. We have this sort of seriousness about software that we had about video and television 20 years ago." "Now it's like—I just took a video on my phone. It's going to be like—I just made an app on my phone. Same energy." Anish Acharya on BILLIONS with Guillaume Moubeche

From The Moynihan Report: "I place people, mostly military veterans, into manufacturing and shipbuilding jobs...In shipbuilding alone, we have to hire 14,000 people a year for the next ten years just to replenish our fleet now...There's just no way to do this with Americans."

Sen. Chris Van Hollen traces his worldview to growing up overseas in a U.S. diplomatic family, and to witnessing firsthand the consequences of American power. He recalls traveling as a young Senate staffer into Kurdish areas near Iraq’s border after Saddam Hussein used chemical weapons, at a time when the U.S. had backed Baghdad. “I believe in the power of America’s example, not just the power of our military,” Van Hollen told Breaking Points, warning that U.S. hypocrisy—then and now—has lasting consequences.

"If you rank a Toyota Camry through to Starship and what the hardest thing to make in America is, nuclear submarine is easily the first."

"There are a million welders short. You couldn't go hire a million welders today to catch up on that hours deficit, it's simply a math problem." "Because we're highly automated we can actually produce labor using autonomy and a new labor force paired with AI and robotics." "It's about 1/20th of what we actually need to catch up."
