President Trump has issued a document outlining the administration’s national security strategy. Among other goals, the strategy document prioritizes the “Revival of the Defense Industrial Base.” The document reasons that the “huge gap, demonstrated in recent conflicts, between low-cost drones and missiles versus the expensive systems required to defend against them,” elucidates the need for change. This change will require “a national mobilization to innovate powerful defenses at low cost,” and a “re-shor[ing] of defense industrial supply lines.”
