Remilitarization: US military expands future warfare capabilities

US launches 120-day future warfare study while securing new hardware contracts and withdrawing from Iraq

Global Desk · composed from 13 outlets · every claim links to its sources

What happened

Defense Secretary Hegseth launched Project Meridian, a 120-day study on future warfare led by Elon Musk, Palmer Luckey and Newt Gingrich. 111721 The Navy awarded Boeing a $20 billion contract to develop the F/A-XX sixth-generation fighter and doubled its MQ-25A Stingray carrier capacity. 519 US forces completed their withdrawal from Iraq after a two-decade presence while threats from Iran and ISIS persist. 3

Why it matters

The study raises potential conflicts of interest as Musk's and Luckey's companies already sell technology the review may recommend. 1117 Hegseth announced a new four-star drone command and stated the military is no longer 'weak' as part of a broader overhaul. 222

What to watch

Project Meridian must deliver findings to military leadership within 120 days. 11 Boeing's $20 billion F/A-XX contract secures a monopoly on sixth-gen fighters. 5
