Airbus secured $20.9 billion in orders, highlighted by Vietjet’s 100 A321neo deal, while Boeing was absent. Defense technology drew focus with air defense systems, ISR drones, and the KC‑390 gaining NATO interest. Embraer landed a major SkyWest order, and Diamond’s eDA40 electric trainers signaled growing sustainability efforts.

After weeks of pressure, the Army says it will brief Congress within 10 days on its sweeping acquisition transformation plan. The initiative could redirect $48B over five years, cut 12 programs, and consolidate 21 commands—all in pursuit of a leaner, more lethal force.

The OMB has proposed slashing nearly 41 NASA science missions—cutting the agency’s science budget in half and targeting programs that explore Venus, Mars, Earth, astrophysics (including the Chandra X-Ray Observatory and Habitable Worlds Observatory), and key missions like Apophis and solar system probes. This steep pivot shifts NASA’s focus toward human spaceflight initiatives, including a $1 billion investment in Mars lander and spacesuit development, while putting robotic exploration on the chopping block.
