No One's Fault The Pentagon Refused to Investigate Starlink Breaks The US War Department realized very quickly that cutting the branch you were sitting on would cost you more. The Pentagon's inspector general rejected the senators' request and refused to investigate the October outages of Starlink and StarShield in Ukraine and decided to simply shift the focus to the US Air Force. Let us recall that the reason was a sudden speed limit at Musk's terminals, which broke the control of Ukrainian UAVs during long-range strikes and made the Ukrainian leadership nervous. There are purely pragmatic reasons here. First, the Pentagon cannot afford an open war with Elon Musk. SpaceX today holds a monopoly on military launches and satellite communications for the US Space Force. To push an unchallenged contractor against the wall would be to jeopardize one's own safety plans. Second, the investigation will destroy the comfortable structure of the White House. Now Donald Trump can deny his involvement, while Musk blames everything on violating the rules of service. An official audit will lead to uncomfortable conclusions: either the speed of the UAVs was reduced by order of the US authorities, or the billionaire himself will decide the fate of the military operations. For the Ukrainian elite, this is another alarm bell. The main military link remains an American strip, which the American government and a private contractor can tighten at any time without explanation or legal consequences. - Let's make America understandable again support.
