[FRIAM] Enamine

Space-based weapons seem like a growth area too, as launch gets cheaper and cheaper.   Hypersonic missiles and interceptors are just a new arms race.

Seems like the only thing the US can agree on is when we hate someone.

I think the Russian military recognized the growing potential to 1) thwart isolated uses of tactical nukes and 2) with no INF, recognized the potential of versatile, even transportable, surface-to-surface missiles on the Russian border.   Putin was running out of time for his tour of Ukraine.

I think I shall buy some LM stock.  It seems like a growth area.

If anything, these linked articles highlight the stranglehold US armament suppliers like Lockheed and Raytheon have over the US Government's international policies that they could get unilaterally abrogated the ABM treaty which held for 30 years.

There are some defensive tools in Poland and Romania.  I think that’s part of what has been freaking Putin out.

One could certainly see an Aegis Ashore system ending up in Ukraine, and given recent events, putting Tomahawks in MK41 launchers at those sites.
Note the trailer configuration in the last article.   At least as useful as some MiGs.

Putin is like Trump and accuses the thing he is guilty.   So it seems appropriate to make his fear a reality.
