Defense & Aerospace Business Report

On today’s program, sponsored by Elbit America, Todd Harrison of the American Enterprise Institute joins Defense & Aerospace Report Editor Vago Muradian to discuss the end of the longest-ever US government shutdown and the prospects that another one in late January after the continuing resolution adopted by lawmakers expires; impacts of the shutdown that will linger for years and months, including on uniformed and civilian workforce; the win for Boeing’s E-7 radar plane that was the only defense progam included in the CR; update on Golden Dome; Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s drive to revamp the Pentagon’s entire acquisition system; and what’s in the reconciliation package.
