Episode Summary: In episode 195 of the Aerospace Advantage, E-7 on Contract, Space Force Reorg, F-35 Deliveries Resume: The Rendezvous, Heather “Lucky” Penney chats with members of the Mitchell Institute team about the latest defense news from the Beltway and the broader national security community. Recent weeks have been a whirlwind. F-35 deliveries resumed, the commander of Air Combat Command backed F-22 Block 20s, and NGAD is paused…for now. The Sentinel program also moved forward after the Nunn McCurdy breach, but with some new guidance. Developments have also occurred in the Space Force. This includes Space Systems Command, Space Development Agency, and Space Rapid Capabilities Office merging into a single entity and Chief of Space Operations General Saltzman appointing Air Marshall Paul Godfrey as his Assistant CSO for Future Concepts and Partnerships. Added to this, our panelists discuss the latest defense developments in Washington D.C. and beyond. These are huge issues, so join us to learn more!
