According to multiple informed sources, the White House has evaluated potential candidates to succeed Deputy Defense Secretary Steve Feinberg, indicating that the Pentagon—already experiencing unusually frequent personnel changes—may see further senior-level turnover. At this time, the White House has not made any decision regarding Feinberg's removal. Both the White House and the Pentagon have denied plans to replace Feinberg. Feinberg is a billionaire co-founder of private equity firm Cerberus Capital Management. He had pledged to accelerate U.S. munitions production but has yet to achieve this goal, primarily due to the inability of the U.S. industrial base to rapidly scale up capacity. Some defense industry executives say that despite significant government pressure, slow congressional appropriations have left Feinberg struggling to deliver results.
