He later transitioned to missile defense technology, working on the Ballistic Missile Defense Ground based free electron laser and the Strategic Defense Initiative.

His career in missile defense and subsequent dismissal from the Star Wars Program, coupled with allegations of mismanagement, reveal a complex relationship with national defense policies.
