Palmer Luckey’s defense tech company will make next-gen military aircraft with Archer

Electric aviation startup Archer Aviation signed an exclusive deal with Palmer Luckey’s defense contractor, Anduril Industries, to jointly develop next-generation aircraft for the military. Archer also announced a new funding round of $450 million to help propel its defense ambitions. The first product will be a hybrid propulsion vertical takeoff and landing aircraft that will serve as the basis for the companies’ bid for a contract with the US Department of Defense.

'The first product will be a hybrid propulsion vertical takeoff and landing aircraft' Archer also announced it will be the recipient of a fresh capital round, with $430 million coming from preexisting investors such as Stellantis and United Airlines as well as new funders like Wellington Management and Abu Dhabi investment holding company 2PointZero, a subsidiary of the United Arab Emirates’ largest listed entity, IHC. Archer says it has raised a total of $2 billion to date.
