Anduril, a U.S. defence‑technology company, announced that it will build submarine components at a shipyard outside Baltimore, with the federal government expected to hold roughly a 40 percent stake, President Donald Trump said on Tuesday.
The move marks a departure for Anduril, which has traditionally focused on software‑driven weapons systems such as drones and autonomous platforms.
Details of the partnership remain limited, but the company will operate the facility in a region that has long been a centre for naval construction.
According to the statement, the government’s stake will provide a significant share of the investment and oversight for the project.
The announcement comes as the United States seeks to expand its domestic submarine production capabilities.
