Pentagonul cere producție accelerată de arme în SUA

The Pentagon is urging U.S. defense manufacturers to expedite arms production and deliveries due to depleted stockpiles from the Iran conflict. Companies have 21 days to submit plans for increased output. The urgency stems from significant reductions in missile inventories, particularly for Patriot and THAAD systems. Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman have already received contracts to boost production. However, expansion plans hinge on Congressional funding approval, which is currently stalled. Despite President Trump's claims of ample ammunition, the Pentagon acknowledges the need for rapid replenishment of military supplies.
