Today, Santiago & Josh interview Ethan Thornton, Founder of Mach Industries, to discuss the future of warfare, drones, and what Mach Industries is building to prepare the US to win the next conflict.

The future of warfare is mass-scale unmanned drone & hypersonic missiles. 

Total victory depends on the ability to build the most, the fastest, and the cheapest. 

Ethan Thornton dropped out of MIT and raised ~$90m at 19 years old to tackle this problem. 

This is the first look at Mach Industries: America’s next-gen warfare factory.
