How engineering teams handle shifting military requirements

Our engineering team has been working on a defense project where the military requirements keep shifting and we're all burning out trying to keep up but no one wants to be the person who pushes back on a contract that's funding half our company and I can see us starting to resent each other instead of addressing what's actually broken in this process.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The team is absorbing impossible demands rather than confronting the systemic problems with how requirements are managed, and the stress is fracturing relationships.
