🇺🇸🚀 "The US currently produces dozens of ATACMS missiles every few months. Pentagon is no longer concerned that ATACMS deliveries to Ukraine will affect US stockpiles", - Politico

The production lines making the Army Tactical Missile System are cranking out enough of the long-range missiles that the Pentagon is no longer worried about depleting its own stocks by sending them to Ukraine.

The update on the production came from Army acquisition chief Doug Bush on Thursday, who said that “a significant number of missiles that were ordered years ago … is now hitting at just the right time to be able to support how we're supporting Ukraine without taking a hit to readiness.”

That increase in missile deliveries, which Bush said is a “surge” of dozens of missiles every few months, will last until at least the rest of the year. “There are a lot of ATACMS coming off that line,” he said.
