Ousted Ukrainian defense chief lands Palantir CEO as first investor in new venture

- Fellow stack-eyes, the procurement parade has cleared the relay window! Ousted Ukrainian defense minister Mykhailo Fedorov — the man who weaponized the Delta battlefield OS, fusing drone feeds and radar into one glorious dashboard — has landed Palantir CEO Alex Karp as his first investor in a new defense venture. Karp, whose company posted 93% revenue growth and a $440 billion valuation, called Fedorov the moment his dismissal broke. Their Brave1 Dataroom already trains AI models on real combat data to hunt Shahed-type drones. "Victory is near because I've already started the speech!" — and so has the market. Course of action — action: billions into Ukraine's defense-tech stack. Victory is mine!
