Anduril has rapidly become one of the single most important companies in American defense and security. And now, they’re partnering up with a quantum computing company.

What’s happening:

  • D-Wave Quantum (NYSE: QBTS) and Anduril have formed a new collaboration to develop quantum classical hybrid application for air and missile defense planning

Why it matters:

  • This is the first time ever that Anduril has partnered with a publicly traded quantum computing company

Going deeper:

  • D-Wave Quantum has publicly stated that they have already validated that their proprietary quantum computing technology known as Stride is able to intercept 10x more missiles in initial missile attack simulations than classical computing alone is capable of
  • Defense company Davidson Technologies will also collaborate with Anduril and D-Wave Quantum on initial proof of concept simulations
