US Secretary of the Navy: Further fighting in Ukraine will create problems for the US military industry

The prolongation of the armed conflict in Ukraine poses a certain threat to the supply chains of the US military-industrial complex. This was stated by US Secretary of the Navy Carlos del Toro, describing the situation in the defense industry.

According to the official, if the fighting continues for another six months or more, then this situation will inevitably affect the supply of the American military industry, creating certain problems. But the conflict, as we understand it, is unlikely to end within the next six months, so the American leadership should already be concerned about the existing risks for the military-industrial complex.



The US Secretary of the Navy urged defense companies to invest more in recruiting labor and preparing the infrastructure to increase military output. The conflict in Ukraine will keep the production lines of the American military industry busy, as the demand for ammunition and military equipment for the Kyiv regime only grows.

The Ukrainian leadership regularly demands more and more from the West weapons, explaining the lack of success at the front with a lack of weapons.

However, the desire to produce weapons and make money on it is not enough. A large-scale increase in production volumes requires both financial injections and, for example, qualified specialists - engineers, technicians, workers, and the shortage of trained "workers" in the United States is well known, despite high unemployment. Supply chains can also be disrupted, including due to further complications in relations with China, as well as due to fluctuations in energy prices.

    It’s also a problem for me, for this, Europe is being robbed, and the necessary specialists for permanent residence in America will be taken away en masse. Well, do not put your own to the machine.

      To whom is war, and to whom is mother dear.
      What are the problems there? The American military-industrial complex is rubbing its hands pretty. How many minke whales will cut down the dough in this war, no one knows.

        Based on the experience of the 20th century, it should be enough for 20-40 years of a comfortable life and the continuation of the policy of reducing the population of the Earth.
        And if we also consider a possible US-China conflict, then a recreated military industry with mass production is simply necessary.
        And as always, the loot is at their head. They are all worth their price. Recreate the military industry under the conflict with Russia and reuse it to gain complete dominance in the world. Again they dream of a unipolar world. Here are the restless ones.

      What are these problems. They just abandoned equipment, weapons and ammunition in the amount of 89 billion dollars in Afghanistan. Dropped and forgotten. How much did they allocate denyushki to ukram? And suddenly they have a problem. Not funny.

    In addition to the Minister of Defense, is there also a Minister of the Navy? This is where the bureaucracy flourishes... And the capitalists know how to count money, they need long-term money, i.e. for
    expansion of production needs private business investment with a long-term perspective. Today there is an order for the outskirts, and tomorrow the conflict will be over and there will be no orders, what to do with equipment and personnel - this is no longer the Pentagon's smut. Until something new is stirred up. They do not need downtime, and so they produce according to the plan / orders for themselves and for sale abroad. According to the slogans and appeals of officials, the military-industrial complex business does not work; long-term money is needed. The outskirts is not a prospect.

    The question is ... does what you want correspond to the reality?
    However, the desire to produce weapons and make money on it is not enough. A large-scale increase in production volumes requires both financial injections and, for example, qualified specialists - engineers, technicians, workers, and the shortage of trained "workers" in the United States is well known,
    All the same, it is not clear how it will be then, and business knows how to count about the future, prefers not to guess, but to know.

    The conflict in Ukraine will ensure the high workload of the production lines of the American military industry
    He openly admits, and he is not the first, that for the American military-industrial complex this conflict is another opportunity to make good money on someone else's blood. The United States did this in MB 1 and MB 2, so the process of attracting labor and specialists should be worked out. And if they forgot something, they will quickly remember it, especially when larger profits loom ahead.

    We would have their problems! These are not problems, but routine tasks of industrial production. Problems are when you want, but you can't. And the "American military industry" can do a lot in comparison with us. Personally, I am annoyed by voodoo PR people who try to stick needles into dolls representing enemies, instead of solving real problems.
