Proud to be part of such an incredible team delivering real, fielded capabilities to the warfighter at scale and at lightning speed. We’re just getting started. 🇺🇸
We’ve reached another milestone in the @DeptofWar's race for American Drone Dominance.
Just weeks after the conclusion of Gauntlet II, the Drone Dominance Program has selected the top five performers in both Deep Strike and Close Quarters Battle mission areas. Each will receive orders from a pool of 60,000 drones – 3x the scale of Gauntlet I.
These drones are also cheaper, more capable, and sourced from a supply chain more closely tied to the American industrial base.

Derek is exceptional, working alongside him to advance Drone Dominance has been incredible, and few people understand the future of unmanned systems more than him. This is well worth your time.

If you are a service member with FPV experience or interest, this is an incredible opportunity.
We are building a deep bench of operators at varying levels of experience across the joint force for future Drone Dominance Program efforts.
If you know someone in your unit who should see this, send it their way. Apply now at https://t.co/SnOVj32yUM
Are you an FPV pilot? We want to hear from you!
The Drone Dominance Program is recruiting service members with FPV experience who would like to be considered as pilots for future Gauntlets and related efforts.

After so many years and so much hard work, New Mexico has finally reached the stars!
With today’s successful @virgingalactic launch, New Mexico is now the third U.S. state to send humans to space.
SpaceShipTwo Unity and VMS Eve have landed at the Gateway to Space, Spaceport America, New Mexico. Read about the next steps for Unity's flight test program. https://t.co/EYrFhjmrKd
A new opinion piece from @CNN on why we need nuclear:
"There is no perfect energy resource... but nuclear power has some incredible benefits that make it a choice well worth considering."

Can the U.S. meet its climate change commitments without carbon-free power that reliably runs around-the-clock?
Why @Ken_Silverstein says shunning nuclear energy is "irresponsible" in his latest @Forbes piece.

Andrew Yang: "We've automated away millions of manufacturing jobs and we're now going to do the same to millions of retail jobs, call center jobs, truck driving jobs, which will be an utter disaster for hundreds of thousands of Americans."
A new generation of environmentalists are embracing our country’s number one source of #cleanenergy– nuclear energy.
Why more are advocating for nuclear as critical in reducing our carbon emissions and preserving our planet.

VMS Eve lands at @Spaceport_NM. Time to settle into her new home. This completes the relocation to New Mexico of our first flight vehicle. It also brings the total number of flights for Eve to #266!
Major milestone coming up: next week we're relocating our carrier aircraft, WhiteKnightTwo, to her new home at @Spaceport_NM. She will be the first of our flight vehicles to relocate to the "Land of Enchantment."
Although the Apollo 11 mission launched from Florida, it was in the desert of New Mexico that NASA rocket tests allowed the Apollo 11 crew to orbit Earth, and then the moon. https://t.co/3XApnENN7H
“If all those [nuclear] plants shut down, estimates suggest, carbon emissions would increase by 6%.”
Why we need new nuclear technology, like these #SMRs from @NuScale_Power, now more than ever.
