The $500 Billion Disaster No One's Talking About in Government Contracting!
Description
In this episode, I sit down with Frank Kendall, former Secretary of the Air Force and Undersecretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics. Frank shares what's really happening behind the scenes of the newly announced $175 billion "Golden Dome" program—a reboot of Reagan's Strategic Defense Initiative that could balloon to $500 billion. We talk about what this means for government contracting, the risks of rushing massive programs, and his firsthand look at managing $170 billion budgets and 700,000 personnel in the Air and Space Force.
Key Takeaways:
-
The Golden Dome could open unprecedented government contract opportunities across defense and space sectors.
-
Rushing a $175B program risks massive waste and inefficiency—potentially doubling its cost to $500B.
-
The Air Force's 2050 vision focuses on AI, autonomy, and long-range power projection to counter China's military buildup.
