    Military can hire an outside firm to examine the redesign issues, hand them tens of millions of dollars to do it. After a couple years just drop the issue once the orange man-child is out of office. Generals can tell him it’s being worked on while changing nothing, and some senator’s favorite contractor (probably General Dynamics) gets a cash windfall for doing jack shit.
