David Weisburd

When I found out you were on the Council of Foreign Relations on the board of directors, I was very excited.

One of the most famous think tanks in Washington, specifically dealing with foreign policy, which is chaired by David Rubenstein, co-founder of Carlyle.

You have a very unique vantage point on that board.

What do you see as the future of defense and the future of national security for the United States?

Ukraine is really the testbed for this asymmetric warfare, which means you have these $500 drones that are destroying five $10 million tanks.

So you have almost this last generation of technology battling out the next generation of technology.

What is the United States doing in order to evolve their defense tech for next generation warfare?

You mentioned cost plus.

Not only is there no incentive to lower the cost, there's a disincentive because oftentimes this cost is a percentage, not a dollar sum.

So it's not like if they lowered the cost by 10 times, they would make the same amount of money, which doesn't really matter.

They actually make less money.
