Ya..and it’s just a coincidence that ATK has chosen now to shut down the Lake City facility, and lay off workers, so they can perform a $400M upgrade.

That they’re a major DOD contractor, couldn’t have influenced their timing.....

The facility is government owned and the customer is the government. Lake City ammo that is available has been sold as surplus by the government.

The article didn't say they shut down. It said they had automated, had smaller orders to fill, and were laying off workers.
