What's the math on that one?
I mean, just, what is that, years of the backlog?
Allegedly, there's some ability in the supply chain to actually crank these out more.
But there's only one facility, I think it's in Arizona, that even makes all of the missiles.
A lot of them are, you know, it's by hand.
It's extremely complex, extremely expensive, too.

Like, we're already rationing here.
