Understandable, gov can say “I will buy 100 planes at $750M each”, but it costs you $1B each, so you say no thanks

That’s what a contract is. In promise to pay and you promise to deliver. Would the corporations only accept $650M each if it ended up costing them $100M less to make each one? No, of course not, they’d bill the full $750M because that’s what they bid. Finding out that you underbid or under negotiated is a risk of contractual business.

Corps need to put their big girl panties on and deliver. Maybe pay the executives less next year instead.

Inflation played havoc with cost estimates [...] Pandemic-driven supply-chain challenges and labor shortages [...] Executives of U.S. defense contractors tried to reassure investors they wouldn’t chase projects that presented high risks for cost overruns.

But I was told America’s MIC had infinite resources?
