Anthropic said "we don't want to be used as part of kill chain decision-making" (actually it may have been even more specifically autonomous/unmanned kill chain decision making)

The DoD responded not by saying "alright, we will use OpenAI for our kill-chain uses" but by saying "Boeing is no longer allowed to use Claude Code".

Correct, they do not want “Boeing” to use Claude models to write software for airplanes for example

Yes, and this is not (and cannot be!) a supply chain risk in any reasonable interpretation.

		It is though. Read the opinion here: https://media.cadc.uscourts.gov/opinions/docs/2026/09/26-104... It’s a risk that persons may otherwise manipulate the operation of a covered technology to deny or disrupt its function. The statute allows the DoW to do this.

		If the DoD uses some Boeing plane, they do not want Anthropic to be able to interfere somehow.
