How much of the high-tech electronic equipment that our military forces absolutely depend on is wholly manufactured in foreign countries, or contains vital components for which we depend in foreign sources? Far too much, would be my guess, and I believe that a consequence of this dependency is that our national security and survival is not nearly as certain as we would like it to be.

Believe it or not every battery we use to power precision guided weapons is made in China.
