THE PRESSURE WORKED! Raytheon just agreed to fast-track 1,000 Tomahawks, 1,900 AMRAAM missiles, and 500 standard missiles PER YEAR HEGSETH: “Look at the deals we’ve cut recently with Raytheon, with Boeing, with other companies…that’s groundbreaking stuff. Our department’s NEVER done that!” “The companies are investing because they know we’re going to be buying into the future. That’s just good business.
