Seems to be an article that’s based in real journalism, surprising for the source, in my mind at least. The one fact that’s being danced around is they know the system is broken but was able to be worked around/thru at Lockheed’s skunk works to develop the U-2 and SR-71. This success needs to be repeated right now. Who’s going to be this generation’s Kelly Johnson?
This generation’s Kelly Johnson was laid off in the 0B sequestration cutbacks because he didn’t follow processes and kiss the right posteriors. All that’s left are the brown nosers and paper pushers, and a few competent people hoping to make it to retirement.
