Anduril and Qualcomm Plan BlueChip Military Laptops

Oct 27, 2026
Anduril and Qualcomm are developing BlueChip laptops for government, military and other customers with strict security requirements. Orders will open in 2027.

DefenseScoop reports that Anduril and Qualcomm are developing BlueChip laptops for government, military and other customers with strict security requirements. The companies have built functional prototypes and plan to begin taking orders in 2027.

The laptops use Qualcomm Snapdragon X Series chips for processing, graphics and AI tasks on the device. They support Windows and two Linux versions used by the United States military, and can run Anduril's Lattice software locally.

Anduril plans to manufacture the laptops at its Arsenal-1 facility in Ohio. Qualcomm CEO Cristiano Amon said the chips will be produced at a TSMC facility in Arizona. About 90 percent of the current bill of materials comes from the United States and allied countries.

The systems are being designed around military requirements for security, shock and vibration resistance, and local AI inference. Anduril has not disclosed production targets or pricing.

Tensordyne Napier: What If One Rack Could Do the Work of Nine?

Tensordyne

This Tensordyne whitepaper presents Napier, an inference-focused AI processor and rack-scale system based on the company’s TDN Math logarithmic number system. It examines infrastructure requirements for large mixture-of-experts and agentic models, compares major inference architecture approaches, and details the TDN AIP processor, TDN72 pod, TDN Link fabric, and Napier Ultra configuration. The paper reports simulation-based performance, cost, and accuracy-validation results, including Tensordyne’s projected comparison of one Napier rack with a nine-rack Nvidia Rubin plus Groq deployment; the chip is reported as taped out and in fabrication.
