The Trump administration is actively working to modernize the defense procurement process and streamline military exports through a series of new executive orders. Key initiatives include a review of major defense acquisition programs facing cost overruns and delays, targeting specific programs for potential cancellation, and setting lower thresholds for defense project cancellations. These efforts aim to improve accountability and reduce the bureaucracy surrounding arms sales while responding to industry calls for increased efficiency. Additionally, there are reports that Trump is preparing further executive actions to boost U.S. weapons exports, indicating a significant shift in U.S. defense export policies.
