American Dynamism 🇺🇸

“How people become rich in your society is one of the most important things to understand about it. You can't let your beliefs about this be determined by ideology, or movies, or historical examples that are centuries old. You must look at the world around you and see how it's actually done. If you want to do it yourself, obviously you'll be forced to understand how it's done. So I don't worry too much about you. The ones I worry about are the future prime ministers. You need to remember this talk.”

“He's now teaching his three kids, including his 16-year-old daughter, how to invest based on what he learned owning SpaceX stock. His daughter is already a stakeholder in Meta and a handful of other companies.  If given the chance to talk to Musk, Hernandez said he'd thank him for helping him realize a dream he didn't know he had. ‘He made it a possibility for somebody like us, you know, the cook or … electrician. He's making all these lives much better and meaningful for their families as well."

When pushed, we'll do what it takes to win.

“We’re always going to support our government. We’re a company of patriots, and we want to make sure our government has access to the leading technology and the best stuff. And I think we provide the best stuff.” 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Within ~5 years, probably ~5 times as many satellites as rest of world

Many people are saying!

If you can dream—and not make dreams your master;  If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim;    If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster And treat those two impostors just the same;    If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools, Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken, And stoop and build them up with worn-out tools.

Never. Give. Up.

You did what countless people said was impossible, and you did it time and time again.   Today is your day. You deserve this. May it be a glorious one.

“It is certainly hard to believe that a little company that started in a warehouse in El Segundo is now going public with the largest IPO ever.” Only in America. Congratulations to @elonmusk @SpaceX. This is the American Dream 🇺🇸💪🚀

The ability to project force, at scale, across a number of domains is the bedrock of American security. Today, I’m excited to publicly announce our partnership with @Saronic to enable an affordable approach to do exactly that at sea. Demonstration coming in 2027.

We're excited to join forces with @Castelion to integrate the Blackbeard hypersonic missile with our Marauder MUSV, demonstrating a first-of-its-kind maritime hypersonic launch capability. By pairing autonomous maritime platforms with hypersonics, we are advancing a more distributed and survivable approach to deterrence. Together, we're working to increase capability and capacity by combining autonomous maritime and hypersonic strike capabilities that are more affordable, scalable, and faster to field. With a demonstration targeted for 2027, both companies are investing in the production infrastructure needed to deliver these systems to the warfighter at greater scale and speed.

“The world offers you comfort. But you were not made for comfort. You were made for greatness.” - Benedict XVI

The U.S. military confirmed that a Saronic Corsair was used in the first-of-its-kind rescue operation following the downing of a U.S. Army helicopter. At Saronic, we build autonomous vessels to extend capability into the most demanding and dangerous environments. Knowing Corsair could play a role in helping bring our service members home safely is exactly why we build. Proud to support the men and women of the U.S. armed forces — and grateful to the team that made it possible. 🇺🇸

Go @Saronic 🛥️🇺🇸

Two U.S. Army AH-64 Apache pilots were rescued near the Strait of Hormuz after their helicopter went down near the coast of Oman on Monday evening, according to U.S. Central Command. ABC News' Martha Raddatz reports. Read more: abcnews.visitlink.me/H3I3n4

According to the Washington Post’s @DanLamothe, the U.S. Navy drone that aided in the rescue of two U.S. Apache helicopter crew members was a Saronic Technologies Corsair unmanned surface vessel (USV). First deployed in the U.S. Central Command AOR in March of this year, the USV reportedly picked up the two soldiers and then took them to a secondary location where a waiting helicopter hoisted them up. Such a rescue would be the first time that such a system was used in this role.

Two US aviators went down near the Strait of Hormuz. DoW used an autonomous @Saronic Corsair to find and bring them home - the 1st drone rescue at sea in military history. This is why we build: to keep our troops safe. This was science fiction. American builders made it real 🇺🇸.

American Dynamism at its best. @Saronic is remarkable.
