“Javelin, Stinger stockpiles running low: Raytheon CEO”
Not a problem - just pay some overtime and open a second shift in the factories that make them.
Amazing that they can burn through 13 years of Stinger production in just months.
Have to factor in the supply of parts and materials down the supply chain. Many integrated circuit chips are also on allocation level of supply, but national defense is first on the allocation lists.
What about material shortages? Biden has killed supply side, and that is big contributory factor for inflation.
Are you sure your not a CEO somewhere? That’s the easiest answer that couldn’t be more wrong so you must be the CFO.
What this indicates to me, is that common sense stock pile quantities of these munitions were and are wildly off target and based on some sort of Pollyanna kumbya world view. Ditto the 155mm and other core munitions and their shooter mechanisms.
