The reviews were initiated by the Defense Department, Air Force, and other agencies due to lax reporting practices that reportedly date back to 2021. The scrutiny comes as Musk's influence grows amid his involvement in several prominent companies, which may have implications for national security given SpaceX's significant federal contracts.
