Sixty Two MILLION Dollars! (Pinky to Lip)

Alright alright alright. Doctor Evil here. Seems this L3Harris yes L THREE HARRIS (I should buy stock) has had to part ways with a measly $62 million. Why so serious you ask? Apparently they weren't being entirely truthful about their pricing. They were making Mini Me money!

Air Force One? More Like *My* Force One!

And get this! After this minor… *ahem*… misunderstanding they're now going to be tinkering with Air Force One. Yes the big bird! Donald Trump wants it and these guys are going to make it happen. I wanted to put a frickin laser beam but noo no funding.

Qatar's Royal Re Gift? Riiight...

Oh and the plane? Gift from Qatar's royal family they say. Sure. I bet they got the plane from Austin Powers! That explains all the crazy mods.

"Amicably Resolved," My Evil A**!

L3Harris claims they're "pleased to have amicably resolved the matter." Amicably? SIXTY TWO MILLION! I bet you Dr. Evil's island base could have been rebuilt for a measly $62 mil. Though I digress.

Integrity? In *My* Defense Contracting?

They also spout about "integrity" and "accurate cost and pricing data." Oh behave! It seems the US government is running through my evil lairs ideas! But hey I have an idea! Why don't you give me ONE MILLION DOLLARS

Air Traffic Control Mayhem? Sounds Like My Work!

Wait for it… They're ALSO on a task force to fix air traffic control at Newark? This could be my doing! No seriously I might have something to do with this. I should just change the name to Dr. Evil international who is with me?
