On today’s Look Ahead program, sponsored by HII, Byron Callan of the independent Washington research firm Capital Alpha Partners joins Defense & Aerospace Report Editor Vago Muradian to discuss the second week of the US-Israel war on Iran and what to expect as President Trump demands unconditional surrender and hints at the use of ground troops; implications of a protracted closure of the Strait of Hormuz that’s already driven oil prices past $100 per barrel for the first time since the post-covid surge of 2022; whether US industry is going to be able to quadruple production of exquisite weapons that President Trump demanded during a White House meeting on Friday with US defense executives; industry frustration that the administration didn’t move more quickly to accelerate weapons orders; US budget outlook as the administration prepares its 2026 budget and a reported $50 billion supplemental request to cover war costs; and a look ahead to the big events of the coming in Washington and beyond.
