SpaceX is negotiating a multi-billion dollar deal to sell computing capacity to the US Department of Defense, structured similarly to its existing agreements with Google ($920m/month) and Anthropic ($1.25b/month).

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of AI Infrastructure and Defense Tech.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

If you're selling GPU capacity, chips, or cooling systems at scale, SpaceX just proved the Pentagon will pay $1b+ per month for compute infrastructure—and defence budgets move faster than commercial deals. Your buyer just got real.
