🇺🇸 The US is increasing production of air-defense missile components: the Pentagon has signed deals with Boeing and RTX
This concerns the production of components for Standard Missile—3 Block IB (SM—3 IB) interceptors and Standard Missile—3 Block IIA (SM—3 IIA).
It is noted that both contracts will boost production of a series of critically important ship-based air-to-ground interceptors, which are the backbone of the Aegis missile defense system and form the basis of the US naval missile defense at home and abroad.
"These contracts ensure that our troops will get the munitions they need to win. We are stabilizing our supply chains, expanding munitions production, and putting our entire defense industrial base on a wartime footing," said Michael P. Duffy, Deputy Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment.
