Factories are all the rage in defense tech: Anduril announced a billion-dollar “megafactory” in Ohio earlier this year, while Saronic said last month it’s planning its own factory to mass-produce autonomous warships.

Now, Anduril is considering building a factory in the U.K. as it expands beyond U.S. defense contracts.

“If we get enough orders, absolutely we are planning to open a facility in the UK,” Rich Drake, Anduril’s general manager for U.K. and Europe, told Bloomberg.

Anduril would use the factory for drones and R&D and might choose somewhere near Oxford and Cambridge, Sifted reported earlier.
