Secretary of Defense Robert Gates has said, We simply cannot afford to perpetuate the status quo that heaps more and more expensive technologies onto fewer and fewer platforms-thereby risking a situation where some of our greatest capital expenditures go toward weapons and ships that could potentially become wasting assets.

When an international incident occurred during the Cold War, the first question often asked by the President was “Where are the carriers?” In recent weeks, many articles highlight the Department of Defense’s concerns over the estimated three-year industry production delay associated with replacing weapons provided to Ukraine. In response, I offer a variation on the President’s question: “Where are the arsenals?” Two leading causes to the industry production delay are ongoing supply chain issues and workforce shortages, both of which can be moderated by military arsenals. A key mission of the nation’s military arsenals is to help bridge this gap by surging their production levels while industry mobilizes to expand capabilities and capacities for even greater production.The U.S. government-owned industrial base, including arsenals, is rarely included in the discussions regarding weapons replenishment or war mobilization. In peace, private industry has no financial incentive to maintain a commercial arsenal capable of surging to wartime production levels. Therefore, it is necessary to use government-owned industrial bases for continual replenishment and mobilization, for which they were built. Naval Surface Warfare Center Indian Head Division (NSWC IHD) is the Navy’s only arsenal and the nation’s only remaining full-spectrum, all-domain energetics center (energetics include the explosives and propellants that give modern munitions their capabilities and lethality). Based on my experiences at NSWC IHD, I contend that arsenals are not mentioned as an additional production resource because their deterioration inhibits their ability to fully bridge the aforementioned gap...

You're certainly a moron.

Yes.
here's some more fritter...
brown, it's self explanatory...
Yes, but then you would have remained an ignorant retard, but now you know the meaning of a "quote". You're welcome.

Feel free to dodge, post an old quote, or strike this out like you do with everything else that makes you sweat even a little.If Trump is as “brutally stupid” as you say, why do you think foreign leaders still feel the need to negotiate strategically around him rather than just ignore him completely?

You really are the Hemingway of half-baked rage posts.Since you’re clearly warming up for another Thought-Free Friday, here’s a simple question:

Be still my heart.
If tossing out "economic interdependence" counts as an answer, then grunting counts as a Shakespearean monologue.
Try again, Grifticles—this time with a full thought attached.
Unless, of course, thinking is still "not in it for you."
