Go look up what Samsung started out selling. They make a ton of military shit too just mostly for their own country.

Samsung’s military shit did not explode, their main sources of revenue do not involve the military anymore, and the reason for the explosion was identified and resolved.

Boeing, however, have multiple faults in fields that do deal with the military, this doesn’t end well.
