    Is his face paralyzed from botox or did he have a stroke?

      That is an AI generated avatar digital twin, not the real CEO.

    CEO makes $30 million +.
    Private in the Army makes $30,000.

      CEO has to earn a lot. He is leading the company. Thats the whole point.
      If the CEO would earn 100k.
      Every other company on the planet would steal every good CEO for 150k.
      Also CEO with low income is a risk because its possible he would take money for insider infos.
      Will not happen with 30mio/year.

      October 2, 2026 at 12:53 pm

      @Race_1000 private in the army makes very little. He is expendable and if he is killed it’s no big loss. That is the whole point.

      @118Columbusthanks captain obvious. Not expendable like you say. Cost the US 500 million in operating cost to find our downed pilot in Iran. Not so expendable if we are spending that amount of resources.

    • @sarkaranish

      October 2, 2026 at 5:43 pm

      ​@118Columbuswhy should a private make as much as a CEO?

    “skunk works” speed…….so WAY over budget and decades behind schedule??

    • @lomzogaming3631

      And Weapons to be used in CRIMINAL STINKY CAPACITIES

    • @ravissary79

      October 2, 2026 at 2:00 pm

      Skunk works used to be one of the most agile modern military tech development groups.
      He’s appealing to that reputation and is in essence wanting to return to that kind of service.

    This lmao they’re in the hot seat and the start up’s are eating their lunch like crazy 😂😂

    • @1776neverfinished

      October 2, 2026 at 5:05 pm

      Yes because the 5 Primes have been ripping off the U.S. taxpayers for over 30 years since the end of the Cold War with the USSR due to government shutting down all the smaller defense contractors in the 1990s.

  5. @theodorechiodo1106

    October 2, 2026 at 11:18 am

    lol figure out the block 4 upgrade man and how to mass produce stuff. Total joke the big primes need to be broken up.

    • @sarkaranish

      October 2, 2026 at 5:44 pm

      Yep, that’s my main problem with Lockheed right now. Tech refresh 3 is a joke + the cooling issues and the new radar issues are really annoying me as well.

  6. @fauxbro1983

    October 2, 2026 at 12:02 pm

    Lol this CEO has bad body language

      They built an android CEO

  8. @MChannel_FET

    October 2, 2026 at 12:20 pm

    Unwatchable. These guys will all fail and it’s about time. As an unemployed engineer at the moment, I’m deciding to shift to defense/UAV and I would never want to work for any of the old guard.

  9. @AIandComputerUse-nw6lc

    October 2, 2026 at 12:21 pm

    Replace this CEO with AI.

    Ceo or criminal.

    8-10 key missions, add Z axis <— DARPA. Sounds like gobbledegook: Throw a whole bunch of systems together and claim credit for an outcome. Like Comcast or Verizon claiming to be AI.

    Lockheed Vectus CCA jet is pretty dope.
