After 30+ years (not a joke sadly), the US Army just ordered new PAC-2 GEM-T missiles (older, tech from 80s, far less capable than PAC-3) for $442M - the first domestic buy since the early 1990s xDhttps://www.twz.com/land/u-s-army-is-buying-older-pac-2-patriot-missiles-for-the-first-time-in-decadesWhy? Because stockpiles are completely gutted: 1,060-1,430 Patriots fired vs Iran alone. Global demand (Ukraine, Israel, Gulf, and many others) + multi-year production lags leave the US scrambling for "good enough" interceptors. Better old and low-tecb than nothing xDRTX produces 20 GEM-Ts/month. This is a stark symptom of US deindustrialization: lost capacity, fragile supply chains and inability to rapidly replenish advanced munitions in high-intensity conflict. "The only superpower in the world" reduced to restarting old lines. I am talking about it for at least a decade or longer but so far all my warnings were commented as a "crazy talk of a Russian Olgino troll" or ignored as impossible xD

cry some more russian shill, maybe if you paid less for shilling and more for military you would win in urakine already.
>>539519265Why arent you on the frontline? Zelensky has a big surplus of online propagandists (draft-dodging in other countries) but huge deficit of the drone-fodder xDhttps://files.catbox.moe/n7aio0.mp4
>>539519181GrimAnd even our good Patriots are becoming obsolete.Iran just does a swirly do on final approach and their missiles bypass our interceptors.
