America’s defense industrial comeback is real
Since taking office, this administration has found something Washington rarely agrees on: The defense industrial base has to be rebuilt now, not eventually. After nearly four decades of service, I’ve watched that kind of agreement come and go before without much to show for it. This time is different.
TL;DR
- There is a consensus in Washington to rebuild the defense industrial base.
- New long-term agreements are being made for critical munitions, such as the Tomahawk cruise missile.
- These agreements support increased production, job creation, and small businesses.
- The Center for Strategic and International Studies found measurable improvement in wartime production capacity.
