These companies utilize their representatives in Congress to block and interfere with such investment models. The US Navy, including President Trump, intends for the Navy to possess the combat capability of dual primary combat platforms, in addition to aviation platforms. They also plan to develop a super fighter, a large strategic aircraft. Previously, air combat was part of the US Air Force, and they pursued air-space integration. Now that the Air Force is independent, it will have more resources, and its say in the planning and utilization of air combat and air assets will be dominant.
