00:00:00.000 You know, a lot of times we, the weapons that we have, you know, timeline-wise, 30 years, you know, you kind of see something like, whoa.
00:00:09.180 And you typically see it first in a movie, right?
00:00:13.400 And you say, that looks a little too realistic, right?
00:00:18.420 What was the movie that Will Smith did with the robots?
00:00:21.540 iRobot?
00:00:21.920 iRobot.
00:00:22.440 Yeah, you look, ah, was Musk the executive producer iRobot?
00:00:28.480 Obviously, no.
00:00:30.000 But iRobot came out when?
00:00:31.980 2004.
00:00:32.420 21 years ago.
00:00:33.460 Holy shit.
00:00:34.840 20 years later, Musk is talking about that they're going to be deploying robots and making $10 million, $20 million, $30 million at $30,000, right?
00:00:45.140 With the robots.
00:00:48.560 What is in store?
00:00:50.000 What's being built that's just an insane thing DARPA's got that the rest of us don't know about, that maybe it's been leaked?
00:00:55.460 There's a couple of really cool toys that they're working on.
00:00:58.980 One of them, it almost doesn't look cool, but it's probably the thing that scares China the most, which is the Typhon launcher.
00:01:06.220 It looks not cool at all.
00:01:09.600 It looks like a truck from Walmart going down the street.
00:01:15.520 But this thing fires a friggin' Tomahawk cruise missile, and you can basically bring it wherever.
00:01:21.360 It's terrifying because you can just roll up a truck somewhere in the Philippines, which, by the way, they've now stationed these.
00:01:28.580 They have a range of over 1,000 kilometers.
00:01:32.940 They have a range of 1,000 kilometers.
00:01:34.880 Yeah, they can hit China.
00:01:36.060 They've stationed them in the Philippines.
00:01:38.600 It's the first time this has happened.
00:01:39.500 It's a brand new weapon system, and they're long-range missile systems, and they're now within range of China.
00:01:47.860 China's absolutely livid about it.
00:01:50.180 How do you know that?
00:01:50.760 Their foreign minister puts out all these press releases being like, stop doing that.
00:01:56.320 Stop putting missiles within range of our country.
00:01:59.180 You're destabilizing the whole region is their words.
00:02:01.580 That's what they're saying.
00:02:02.380 But these things are freaking crazy.
00:02:04.880 They remind me of how there was those container attacks in both Iran and in Russia where those drones came out and attacked.
00:02:13.380 It's like weaponization of containers are terrifying.
00:02:17.940 The other piece of equipment that I think is really, really cool is the B-21 bomber, which is going to replace the B-2.
00:02:30.460 The amount of billions of dollars that they're pumping into this is—
00:02:34.380 What's special about this guy?
00:02:35.720 It's like a B-2, but longer-range and stealthier.
00:02:43.420 It's going to basically be able to drop those bunker busters over China and avoid enemy air defense.
00:02:54.920 Looks pretty cool.
00:02:56.400 It's like you want one of those in our hangar, Rob.
00:02:59.140 With that hangar we have in the back.
00:03:00.700 Wouldn't that be kind of cool we put in the hangar?
00:03:02.500 How much are these?
00:03:03.260 Can I go to Walmart and buy one of these?
00:03:04.920 Or is there like a Amazon?
00:03:08.160 Do they sell these?
00:03:09.740 How much would something like this go for?
00:03:11.160 What do they put into this?
00:03:12.840 That's a good question.
00:03:13.700 Rob, can you find out what they put into a B-2?
00:03:15.800 Billions of dollars.
00:03:22.440 700 million per aircraft.
00:03:24.180 Oh, my God.
00:03:25.020 Per.
00:03:27.000 Wow.
00:03:28.880 700, including the Vores and Procurement Operation Fleet.
00:03:32.600 At least 100 bombers.
00:03:33.760 It's estimated to be around $203 billion over 30 years, according to the Air Force.
00:03:39.320 So we're spending $203 billion on 100 of these.
00:03:43.860 Why do you need 100 of them?
00:03:45.280 They need to be able to make sure that the enemy thinks that there's no chance in hell that they could beat us.
00:03:56.960 That's it?
00:03:58.620 It's a deterrent.
00:03:59.940 How do you feel about it?
00:04:02.060 Military tech, it gets me going.
00:04:04.440 Yeah, I feel good about it.
00:04:06.060 Okay.
00:04:06.700 All right.
00:04:07.220 So are you pretty optimistic about the future?
00:04:10.320 I actually am.
00:04:11.580 Yeah.
00:04:12.760 I'm hopeful for the future.
00:04:14.700 I think I'm hopeful that all of these conflicts that we talked about today will be resolved in a peaceful fashion.
00:04:21.540 I'm hopeful that, you know, we've been doing it since the end of World War II.
00:04:28.180 We've found a way to not blow ourselves and each other up.
00:04:31.700 So I'm confident that the next generation will do the same.
00:04:35.580 You know what's the number one way to show optimism to the world?
00:04:39.180 How's that?
00:04:39.900 By having babies.
00:04:42.240 I completely understand what you mean.
00:04:45.920 If you're not optimistic, don't have any kids, man.
00:04:48.300 Because if you have any kid, you're saying, hey, man, the future better look bright for my kids, for me to be having kids.
00:04:53.540 Right?
00:04:54.000 If you don't, you know, it's a very different way of looking at it.
