Terafab approximate size comparison between Giga Texas, the Pentagon, Apple Park, and the Mall of America.

There has never been a building this large. Elon Musk says it will be the most valuable building by far.

Just to put this into perspective Lockheed Martin is investing the equivalent to the Czech Republic's entire defense budget in the next 4 years or almost 3 years of Slovakias entire defense budget.

Just in modernizing factory's and scaling munitions output.

If this moves forward, it would be another indication that Anduril isn't just expanding production capacity - it's expanding into entirely new manufacturing disciplines.

Building autonomous aircraft, underwater vehicles, and surface vessels requires different expertise, facilities, and supply chains. That's a bigger undertaking than simply producing more of the same product, but one that could generate compounding advantages if executed well.

SPACEX: According to local reports, the final stages of a deal are in place for SpaceX to build the new spaceport on Pecan Island in Vermilion Parish, Louisiana, and Governor Jeff Landry is expected to make an announcement this month.

SpaceX would gain control of the land through a coastal lawsuit settlement in which ExxonMobil turns over property it has owned since the 1950s. Included in the deal are coastal restoration provisions.

The sparsely populated site offers Gulf and Intracoastal Waterway access for barges, a midpoint location between Starbase and the Florida Space Coast, and natural gas supplies. Only a fraction of the over 130k acers would be used for actual launch infrastructure, with the rest as a buffer.

If this is true, the project will undoubtedly create thousands of jobs. Louisiana has passed liability protections for aerospace operations, and the FAA recently proposed waiving more than a dozen environmental laws for launch licenses.

The location will support orbital launches and is the perfect spot for SpaceX to launch Starmind AI Datacenters to sun-synch orbit.

At its peak, a four-engine heavy bomber rolled out of this factory every 63 minutes.

Eighteen months earlier the site had been a soybean field. The assembly line inside ran for a mile, and the plant needed its own airport with six runways just to fly the finished bombers away.

[Special Kherson Cat 🐈🇺🇦 @bayraktar_1love]

Ukraine’s Security Service launched a new wave of long-range drone strikes on Russian military and logistics targets overnight on July 25.

In Rostov-on-Don, the strikes hit an S-400 Grave Stone radar, destroyed a Tor-M2 air defence system and a Pole-21 electronic warfare system, and struck two FPV drone warehouses.

In the Caspian Sea, SBU drones hit the Filanovsky oil platform, the sanctioned cargo ships Port Olya 2 and Begey, and a Project 12418 Molniya missile boat.
