This is happening today. If you’re in Austin and you don’t show up it’s like you’re betting against Reindustrializing. It’s like you’re betting against America.
Mark your calendars because NEXT Friday we're doing another ACS Engineering Happy Hour in Austin RSVP: partiful.com/e/q0NLbBUaiSuf… RSVP: meetup.com/austin-enginee… RSVP: eventbrite.com/e/austin-engin… If you don't RSVP we can't give you free drinks. Bring friends, come talk shop.
@LilElseCaller Part of a layered defense you’ll need both. But yes obviously we are the best at pointing and tracking so we will win that market.
Since you asked so politely
@allencontrol @flir Me waiting for ACS to release a promo video with a target that’s not hovering or flying straight at the gun
World’s first ai piloted vtol fighter jet 🤝 number 1 defense tech vc-backed podcast
@BalaSelvam Come on the podcast and talk product management at shield!
Lethality starts here. Last week, at Aberdeen Proving Ground, the Army showcased the next generation of capabilities built for one purpose: ensuring our warfighters dominate and destroy the enemy on any battlefield. @SecWar made it clear that autonomy is not just the future of warfare. It’s how we win.

Since you asked so nicely: a custom built racing drone moving faster than anything on the battlefield today (no payload drag), a top tier FPV pilot twisting and turning, at a great distance (sorry, can't share) Bullfrog killed it on the first burst
@StevenSimoni @allencontrol Now post a video that isn't a slow moving non-incoming linear trajectory.
@Moneymamba Be like “when James and Jax got in a fight on vanderpump over lala. This is basically that”
Mid market verticalized ai token account exec has to be the best job in the valley the last 3 years. Just caking beyond belief. It’s 2013 all over again but with new toys to hawk.
Real btw
@Moneymamba @Sterling_DB Idk I think everything is just cutthroat - capitalism. Fintech might have more smile fucking
Spotted: @lukeallen1138 acs cto visiting @PerseusDefense - is he cheating on me? Xoxo
@ZoltanSEC @Marc_Compere @allencontrol We do take safety very seriously. Mechanical hard stops and a variety of other technology and procedures. Also the camera angle is a bit misleading for where the people are
Hot news: If you're a qualified purchaser, you can actually buy yourself a Bullfrog, RIGHT NOW, from cuas.mil
@Not_beachbmBrad @litcapital Not in this case you could easily operate this by yourself
