I think you are rather misinformed.
I am quite plugged in to several industries, one is Aerospace, as besides following the trades, I still know people there. My first career in the US pre-peace dividend was in aerospace.
And lets say I have family in the business. I was twice given tours of Musk’s Hawthorne factory, invited to Vandenberg for a launch, etc.
Your conclusions are wrong. Patriot and HIMARS are a huge success, way beyond expectations, and that is causing rethink in East Asia. US combat aircraft production is far ahead of Russia and China, at @250 airframes/year. No western aerospace system has been “butchered”. The worst problem in Ukraine is that too little has been given to them, given the size of their opponent.
“Your conclusions are wrong. Patriot and HIMARS are a huge success...”
Which is why Russian glide bombs are SMASHING the hell out of Ukrainian cities.
Can’t have it both ways.
By the way, any luck on the Kerch Bridge? LOL.
