The Weekly Break Out Episode 14: Drama at the Pentagon and worry over Army ground vehicles

This week on The Break Out we dive into the ongoing drama at the top of the Pentagon in the wake of a series of firings and into industry concerns about the Army’s future vehicle plans.

The top story this week remains the exodus of some top officials thought to be close to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, few of which are going quietly. Breaking Defense Editor-in-Chief Aaron Mehta explains just what went down and raises two key questions going forward.

Then Managing Editor Lee Ferran walks viewers through exclusive reporting by Senior Land Reporter Ashley Roque about the Army’s reevaluation of some major programs and some fears inside the defense industrial base that big-ticket projects could be cut.
