DoD is the institution that basically bankrolls most of what musk ever did, to me this just feels like a modern howard hughes, a flashy rich public person that does “crazy” things, very usefull thing to have to hide big military projects in plain sight…
I dont even know what the implications are when the guy that was supposed to be the diversion ends up that close to the power that funds him.
So far Musk’s relationship with DoD is mostly just hucking their satellites into orbit. He’s not really doing the crazy military stuff.
DoD is way more interested in the big primes - Lockheed, Northrop, General Dynamics, Raytheon, Boeing, etc. Satellites are just a piece of the bigger package. They still need missiles, tanks, and aircraft to act on what the satellites teach them.

Satellites are the high ground
