Lockheed Martin announces 1800 added jobs, lower F-35 costs after Trump meeting


From Hot Air:
Lockheed Martin Corp (LMT.N) is close to a deal to significantly lower the cost of its F-35 aircraft, Chief Executive Officer Marillyn Hewson said on Friday after meeting with U.S. President-elect Donald Trump. 
“I certainly share his views that we need to get the best capability to our men and women in uniform, and we have to get it at the lowest possible price,” Hewson said to reporters in Trump Tower. 
Hewson had previously assured Trump she would drive down the cost of the company’s fighter jet, after he tweeted last month that he was asking rival aerospace company Boeing Co (BA.N) whether it could offer a cheaper alternative to the F-35.
The Oligarchs are like teenagers who got caught throwing a huge party while their parents were away. Suddenly, they are cleaning the garage, getting straight-A's, saying "Please" and "Thank you," and going to Church without complaining.
