Anduril has selected Columbus, Ohio as the location of Arsenal-1, our first hyperscale manufacturing facility.
We are investing nearly $1 billion of our own money and will bring more than 4,000 direct jobs in the largest single job-creation project in Ohio history.
Arsenal-1 will redefine the scale and speed at which autonomous systems and weapons can be produced for the U.S. and its allies.
This is a monumental step toward rebuilding America’s defense industrial base, strengthening its warfighting capabilities, and enhancing deterrence.

Congratulations to Jacob Block and the entire @AmericanNitrile team! Today was the ribbon cutting for their new facility that manufactures critical PPE right here in Ohio! They are currently producing about 3 million gloves a day for our hospitals, industries, and food workers!
I was thrilled to join @AmericanNitrile on their ribbon cutting in Grove City with @GovMikeDeWine, Mayor Ike Stage, and many others today!
Hundreds of good paying jobs will be added to our region, all while being the largest American manufacturer of critical PPE nitrile gloves.
Today we joined @GovMikeDeWine & others to celebrate the ribbon cutting of @AmericanNitrile, which will produce 4 billion medical-grade gloves annually & employ 400 people. It’s crucial for our hospitals, economy & national security to bring this manufacturing back to the US!
WATCH: @GovMikeDeWine calls the new American Nitrile facility in Grove City 'vital to our national security.'
Join us tonight for more of our conversation with the city's mayor and community members about the economic impact of the facility. @wsyx6@fox28columbus

Honored to be celebrating @AmericanNitrile at their ribbon-cutting ceremony today. 👏🎉
Today's ribbon cutting at @AmericanNitrile was another step to ending American's dependency on foreign suppliers. This Grove City corporation makes 3M American-made nitrile gloves per day for healthcare and other necessities.
Listen to my @SmallBizEdge podcast with @JacobLBlock, the 30-year-old Founder and CEO of @AmericanNitrile. It is an amazing story of entrepreneurship!
