Secretary of State Marco Rubio made a very poignant observation a couple months ago during the height of the Iran conflict: that the Iranians were outproducing our defense industrial base by more than a factor of ten in the interceptors vs ballistic missiles race.
Iran's 21st century Fabian Strategy
I apologize for the long hiatus between this and my last post. CX2 has been keeping me very busy: we have been rapidly deploying systems to help our warfighters deal with the new assymmetric battlefield, scaling production and moving into a new, much larger facility.
