Reindustrializing Drone Manufacturing in the U.S. | David Michelson, Re:Build Manufacturing

David Michelson, former Army Ranger, DIU autonomy leader, and current Drones Thesis Leader at Re:Build Manufacturing, discusses what’s actually working and not working in drones and autonomy today.


⁠⁠Learn more about our sponsor, Cushman and Wakefield.⁠⁠


This conversation covers:

  • Why autonomy is a spectrum, not a switch
  • Lessons from Ukraine that the U.S. may be misreading
  • The reality of drone operations vs. “swarm” hype
  • Manufacturing constraints and scaling challenges
  • Why design for manufacturability matters early
  • The role of competition in defense acquisition
  • What it takes to actually field systems at scale
