About

About Fury

Fury is an autonomous jet aircraft developed for collaborative combat missions with crewed fighters and other uncrewed systems. Its airframe is intended to combine near-fighter-speed performance with mission endurance and a lower operating and production burden. Modular payload spaces allow the aircraft to carry sensing, communications and mission equipment for different operational roles.

Anduril’s Lattice software provides mission planning, sensor integration and autonomous behaviour, enabling Fury to operate under human command as part of a distributed formation. The aircraft is the basis of Anduril’s YFQ-44A Collaborative Combat Aircraft programme and is progressing through development, manufacturing and flight-test activity for the United States Air Force.

Timeline

  • Anduril completes first YFQ-44A Fury at Arsenal-1

    2026-07-27 - Production Milestone - The completed airframe was rolled out at Anduril’s Arsenal-1 manufacturing site in Pickaway County, Ohio. Fury is Anduril’s aircraft for the US Air Force Collaborative Combat Aircraft programme and remains in development and flight testing. The milestone establishes a completed Arsenal-1 airframe, not an operationally fielded fleet.

  • Anduril and Rheinmetall partner on Barracuda, Fury, and solid rocket motors for Europe

    2025-06-18 - Partnership - Anduril and Rheinmetall announced a strategic partnership to co-develop and deliver autonomous air systems and solid rocket motors for European defense markets. The partnership covered Barracuda, Fury, and propulsion work rather than a narrow integration project. The deal extended Anduril's manufacturing and distribution reach into Europe through an incumbent defense prime.

  • U.S. Air Force designates Anduril Fury as YFQ-44A

    2025-03-03 - Market Signal - The U.S. Air Force designated Anduril’s Collaborative Combat Aircraft as YFQ-44A. Fury originated from Blue Force Technologies before Anduril acquired the company. Use this as a historical product-continuity signal only if the Blue Force profile remains public; otherwise bind it to Anduril/Fury.
