Defensenews berichtet über eine Corona-krisenbedingte Pentagon-Finanzspritze für die US-Rüstungsindustrie: „ In a memo released Sunday, the department announced that progress payment rates for defense items under contract will increase from 80 percent of cost to 90 percent for large businesses, and from 90 percent to 95 percent for small businesses. The move will allow industry to receive more cash up front than under normal circumstances.” (jw)
