Every time I see an article like this I question whether they're really struggling for supplies or manufacturing consent for more military spending.
Given the levels of deindustrialization and the fact that the US is struggling to supply basic things like artillery shells for Ukraine, I think they legitimately are having production issues. It's one of those cases where two things can be true independently of each other. The MIC wants more money, and it's also extremely inefficient.
Exactly, people running the industry want to make as much profit as possible which translates into producing as little as possible at the higher cost possible.
I hope so
Yup me too, could be both too.
