Military drone outfit Anduril partners with Qualcomm to build laptops on US soil with new BlueChip venture

Defense contractor Anduril, known for its military drones, just announced that it's building laptops in the U.S., with the company saying that it will begin taking orders in 2027. According to its press release, it will call its laptop product line BlueChip and will use a Snapdragon X Series SoC for its core computing capabilities.

Domestic Supply Chain

The defense contractor aims to fully bring back laptop manufacturing on U.S. shores, with its first BlueChip laptop prototypes having 90% procurement cost coming from suppliers in the U.S. and other allied countries. However, it's also aiming for a fully domestic supply chain in the long term.
