Lockheed model of sucking up taxes without producing anything only works when the US feels they have superiority over the adversaries. Now that it's becoming clear this is not the case, there will be a push to actually have to produce things that work, and Lockheed isn't good at doing that.
Where in the world are you getting that Lockheed stuff doesn't work? SR71? F104? U2? F117? F22?
Oh man, I remember seeing this U2 in museum, it did a great job intercepting Soviet AD 😂 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1960_U-2_incident
And yet they have still been operational for 60 years after that... Funny that the U2 lasted longer than the Soviet Union.
as a museum piece
You should probably look up what the word "operational" means.
