Take a gander at how much SpaceX has benefited from government contracts. And for Anduril, well the phrase "all hat, no cattle" is pretty appropriate. In all my years I've never seen so much hype for a company that really hasn't produced much.

I don't know what your point is in this context. They won contracts because they were the cheapest (most efficient) provider of the services. And federal contracts are a small part of the their current revenue.

Boeing's commercial (not government contracting) division is famously dysfunctional and has been for a long time.
