Lockheed clinches $2.4 billion deal for sale of THAAD missiles | Reuters
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Lockheed Martin Corp was awarded a $2.4 billion Pentagon contract on Monday for THAAD interceptor missiles, some of which are slated to be delivered to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Reuters had reported Lockheed was nearing the deal earlier on Monday.
================================================
Another great day for the Military Industrial Complex that Pres. Eisenhower warned us against in his farewell address.
This ABM system appears to be intended for protecting the Kingdom from threats from its neighbors: Iran, Israel, etc.
