This is an interesting article. It is kind of a canary in the coal mine issue. This country is spending hundreds of billions of dollars on defense every year, but we don’t seem to have the basics to wage a conventional land war. The war in Ukraine has depleted our stockpiles of ammunition for artillery (now using cluster shells to fill the void) as well as ground to air defense and a multitude of other weapons. Are we spending our defense dollars on the things we really need? Yes, the Ukrainian soldiers are probably not trained well enough to use the weapons wisely or efficiently, but that happens in the heat of battle. We seem to be in love with all the high-tech weapons that cost billions, but maybe we should pay more attention to the basics. I also wonder when Raytheon begins to scale up production, will they be able to source the needed parts without discovering all the stuff is made in China, and now not available.
