President Donald Trump's two sons, Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, have laid out a complete portfolio of defense technology startups. These companies are benefiting from the US Department of Defense's new strategic focus and financial allocations, making America's core national interests at the national security level deeply intertwined with the personal wealth of the Trump family. The vast majority of investment activity occurred after Trump was elected president for the second time. Since the two brothers took a share, these companies have won a total of at least 3.2 billion US dollars in direct federal orders, and another 3.1 billion US dollars in subsequent contract options; some of these companies have joined the official shortlist of pre-selected contractors and can individually bid for future projects totaling nearly 200 billion US dollars. Statistics show that the two leading companies, SpaceX and Anduril, account for 97% of the total direct funding for related projects and 42% of the amount of forward contracts. If these two giants are excluded, the remaining 13 startups linked to the Trump Brothers will still receive US$180 million in long-term federal cooperation intentions and US$103 million in immediate funding after the two invested. Of the 15 companies, 10 already had government business before the Trump Brothers took shares, and 8 had official contracts during Biden's administration; only 5 won the first federal order after their father became president and the two brothers invested.
