Palantir and Anduril are collaborating to develop the core software 'glue layer' for the Pentagon's $185 billion Golden Dome missile defense system, integrating sensors, radars and interceptors into a unified network. Testing is slated for this summer, positioning Palantir alongside partners such as Lockheed Martin and RTX. Designation of Palantir’s Maven Smart System as a Pentagon Program of Record secures multi-year defense funding and deepens military integration, boosting visibility into future high-margin government revenue streams. With average revenue per customer approaching $900k and strategic partnerships like GE Aerospace expanding its enterprise footprint, Palantir underpins a $255 per share price target, reflecting confidence in both defense and commercial growth.
