    @ omooex

    I'm no expert and though GE does provide military products--but not weapons-...

    Actually, it did (and maybe does still) work producing nuclear weapons. Click sig for links.

    And I'd be veeerrryyyy surprised if it didn't have contracts for production of parts of various other weapons (electronics, fuses, control systems, and such).

    Cheers,
