Our book review today is of "Unit X- How the Pentagon and Silicon Valley Reshaped Warfare," recounts the experiences of authors Raj Shah and Christopher Kirchhoff in leading the Defense Innovation Unit Experimental (DIUX), a Pentagon initiative to bridge the gap between Silicon Valley technology and military needs. The authors detail their efforts to overcome deep-seated skepticism and bureaucratic hurdles within the Pentagon, while simultaneously persuading Silicon Valley companies to partner with the military. Their narrative highlights both successes, such as developing a rapid tanker-refueling app, and significant challenges stemming from internal resistance and funding issues. The book also explores broader implications of technological competition with China and the lessons learned from the Ukraine War. Ultimately, the authors advocate for increased collaboration between the commercial and defense sectors to ensure U.S. military technological superiority.
