Something fishy. This and ARRW are the simplest method of achieving a hypersonic weapon. This is not hard. There is a better solution for the AF hypersonic weapon. Hopefully just a change in path. A concern that the DS is trying to tube the capability.
Actually, the money that goes towards engineers and materials is about 20%. The big money goes towards overhead. Manager upon manager, etc. Then a modest 6% profit is tacked onto all that. The government has targeted profits instead of where they should target: overhead.
This is all by design. The plan was for America to be defeated by China as the Cabal would jump ship after abandoning their current base. Things just not working out that way!

I'd say mostly typical. Sink a ton of money into a project, "lose" a lot of that money in accounting, and then profit.

Add in nonstop change orders bringing totals to many multiples of the original contracts.
Exactly right. Change orders open the floodgates.

This, stifle new developments while under cutting other construction. Like the shitty Chinese metal that the navy used.
