- Warhound announced $200 million in funding from investors including In-Q-Tel, Sequoia and 8VC, valuing the company at $1.2 billion.
- According to Warhound, more than 80% of working dogs used by the U.S. military come from Europe, while fewer than half are service-ready.
- Colossal plans to edit genes from Belgian Malinois and German Shepherd cell lines; Anduril is to provide protective equipment and software.
- Warhound’s first group of dogs is expected to be born in early 2027 and ideally enter service within the next two years.
The idea is, if we make the dog safer, make it healthier, make it perform better, it’s going to perform better in the line of duty.— Ben Lamm, discussing Warhound's mission in a TechCrunch interview
