Replacing these systems will take 3-5 years even with expanded production contracts already signed. “The high munitions expenditures have created a window of increased vulnerability in the western Pacific,” said retired Marine Colonel Mark Cancian of CSIS. “It will take one to four years to replenish these inventories.” The Pentagon has said it “has everything it needs.” Trump claimed the U.S. is “preserving” its high-end munitions.
