Episode 6
Tuesday, 10 February, 2026

Another week means another executive order — this time with President Donald Trump looking to change how the Foreign Military Sales process works. In the latest edition of The Weekly Break Out, Editor-in-Chief Aaron Mehta and Air Warfare Reporter Michael Marrow talk through how this might impact global weapon sales. Then after the break, the two preview the upcoming Munich Security Conference and how it could be a tease for the 2028 presidential election. Underwritten by Leonardo DRS.
