Pentagon Urges Industry to Speed Up Missile Production | Lubbock News
Description
The Pentagon is on a war footing, demanding defense contractors slash production timelines and massively scale up missile manufacturing—just 21 days to respond—to replenish depleted stockpiles after recent clashes with Iran. With Patriot and THAAD interceptors slashed from over 2,000 to under 1,000, America’s defensive edge is fraying, putting troops and allies at risk if hostilities resume. Deputy Defense Secretary Steve Feinberg’s urgent memo signals a new era of speed over tradition, shaping the 2028 budget and accelerating a long-standing push to fortify the U.S. defense industrial base.
