And so if you want to have the right solution 12 months from now, you have to start today.
A lot, a lot.
But I don't think it's as much as people think.
So, and this is like not something I would say if I were just trying to build a giant business, but like you need a lot.
And if you look at Ukraine war, I think they're making 11 million a year.
And so it's probably on that number, which is certainly a lot, but China will be able to make significantly more than that.
You need the stockpile of the right thing.
And I think this is the key point, if I can drive home like one thing, it is China will make more.
So the Shahid is this like Ukrainian or this Iranian triangle that China copied, that the U.S.
has copied, that Russia has copied, that Ukraine has copied.
China will make, like if they wanted to, they could make 100 million Shahids a month.
Like I truly believe this.
S-H-A-D.
I don't know.
I suck at spelling.
I apologize.
But Shahead with a S. They'll be able to do the same with quadcopters.
They'll be able to do the same with cruise missiles.
If we make it a pure scaled manufacturing problem, China will win.
The two things America continues to have the advantage on are innovation, specifically taste on what the next big product will be.
