“”””The production rate of Patriot was 350 missiles per year in 2023, supposed to increase to 550 by 2027.””””

The current rate of Patriot missile production (in the U.S.) is about 550 or slightly higher, with 650 for 2027, the new Germany plant will also start producing the missiles.

One Russian Oreshnik missile takes out all of Rheinmetal s facilities. They are fair game when they start supplying St Z long range missiles.

Vlad sent a message a few months ago by destroying the US Boeing Missile and Defense building in Kiev. No tears. The Neo cons and war mongers need to learn a good lesson.

How much is 650 when you need 2 to tap on an easiest target or 4 on a high performance target? A year worth of production is only enough to deal with one air raid, of which 75% of the targets will get through. Not to mention missiles that will be destroyed in storage, in transit, or with the launchers that are going to get hit.
