And
podcast-host
You know, it just it makes sense when you think about it, right?
podcast-host
Because in those cases, I mean the attacker has all of the initiative.
podcast-host
They have um a basic idea of how many, like of what your intercept capacity is in terms of, you know, the trackload of your radar to um you know how many uh engagements your system can handle at any given moment because it's not that many, you know, to how many
podcast-host
Missiles you have uh that that can defend against various uh incoming on on a platform.
podcast-host
Like they know all these things or they have some basic idea of it.
podcast-host
And uh it just gives them all the advantages.
podcast-host
And so we we have these hyper, hyper complex, expensive systems that really in a way look like they're built for like 20th century peer-to-peer combat, when really what they're built for is
podcast-host
is to roll into somebody who can't shoot back at all.
podcast-host
And occasionally if like they happen to get a you know a nineteen seventy-five uh you know cruise missile on the black market and they load it up into a you know a shipping container on a boat and fire it at us, that maybe we could take that out.

podcast-host
It's just an insane misallocation of resources.
podcast-host
I mean
podcast-host
It's one of those things that in hindsight as we look back on it years from now, we're gonna be like, Oh yeah, obviously that was not sustainable.
podcast-host
Why did people think that that was sustainable?
podcast-host
But
podcast-host
Let's leave everybody with that image.
podcast-host
I gotta go uh feed my chickens and do some harvesting before it gets dark.
