Lockheed Martin

From Skywatch:

Skywatch hosts Jimmy Leas and Danaka Katovich interview guest William Hartung, a senior research fellow at the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft and the author of the book Prophets of War, which is about Lockheed Martin, the F-35, and the deeply corrupt system of weapons acquisition in the US. The book describes Lockheed's lobbying, bribery, cost overruns, subsidies, lax oversight, flawed products, rigged tests, lies, self-dealing, revolving door, law-breaking, and endless pressure for endless war. The book also tells the story of remarkable "closet patriots"-- insiders who blew the whistle.
