Defense Industrial Base Reform: Scaling the New Arsenal
The era of expensive, bespoke military platforms is being superseded by a demand for affordable mass. To maintain deterrence, the West must transition toward an open, interoperable, and scalable defense ecosystem. This shift requires a fundamental restructuring of how we produce and deploy technology. By prioritizing standardized production over unique, high-cost systems, allies can ensure they possess the necessary volume to face modern threats. Furthermore, recent conflicts have proven that attrition-based warfare demands a more resilient supply chain. Such a transition is no longer optional for global security.
