The “Anduril Relic” was originally part of a collection of merchandise being hawked online by the defense contractor Anduril Industries. Founded by Oculus designer Palmer Luckey in 2017, Anduril is an “AI-powered” attempt by Luckey to apply the disruptive lessons of Silicon Valley to the defense industry. A big part of that project is making the defense industry cool again.

At the end of last month, Anduril opened a gear store that sells clothing and “relics.” The relics are a “recovered crash component from an Anduril Research & Development test.” For just $120, anyone can own a piece of a broken loitering munition or a busted drone.
