The amount of weapons the United States sent to Ukraine may have exhausted American stocks. According to the Washington Center for Strategic and International Studies think tank, the US has destroyed a third of its Javelin and a quarter of its Stinger stockpile, and it will take three to five years to replenish them. For this reason, too, eight American arms giants have been summoned to the Pentagon, including Boeing, L3Harris, Lockheed Martin and Raytheon, the latter two makers of the Javelin and Stinger. The agenda of the meeting, chaired by Assistant Secretary of Defense Kathleen Hicks, has three main themes. Firstly, arms supplies to Ukraine should the war with Russia continue for months and even into the next four years after Putin’s troops leave. Second, the Pentagon and arms companies must develop a strategy to replenish the reserves of those NATO partners who have sold some of their arms to Kyiv. Finally, they need to think about US stocks and the challenges the US defense industry is facing, according to the big guns, with the supply chain crisis and labor shortages.
