David Packouz shared insights about his interactions with Heinrich Thomet, a Swiss arms dealer dubbed the real-life “Lord of War.” As defense spending ballooned from $145 billion in 2001 to $800 billion in contemporary times, Packouz’s involvement in the arms trade grew significant. He recounts a pivotal encounter at the Euro Satori trade show in Paris, where he reconnected with Thomet, whom he describes as one of the most connected individuals in the arms industry, boasting links from Eastern Europe to Russia.
Thomet facilitated many transactions for Packouz’s ventures, including a high-profile Afghan contract. Despite being investigated for arms trafficking violations, Thomet never faced conviction, consistently escaping legal repercussions. Packouz revealed that the Pentagon was aware of their dealings with Thomet when awarding them contracts, highlighting the complexities and moral dilemmas in the global arms trade.
