Anduril and Qualcomm unveil BlueChip, a rugged U.S.-made laptop for government use

Anduril, together with Qualcomm, introduced the BlueChip laptop, a rugged computer designed for harsh environments and government security requirements. The first generation will contain roughly 90% of its components from the United States or allied countries, including a Snapdragon X Series CPU manufactured at TSCM’s new Arizona plant. Founder Palmer Luckey said the long-term goal is a completely domestic supply chain covering displays, metals, magnets and more.

While a consumer version is not planned initially, the device will be available for preorder in 2027 and will support Windows, certain Linux distributions and legacy government software. Luckey estimates the price will be about 20% above typical high-end laptops, positioning it as an anti-surveillance option with a fully auditable bill of materials.
