The fundamental problem is industrial: munitions can be produced well, quickly, or cheaply, but never all three.

Surging production under wartime pressure forces a choice to sacrifice "cheap". This was starkly illustrated when the US Navy required over $2 billion to replenish $1 billion in munitions expended in Red Sea operations.

The current $26 billion bill for munitions will likely cost the coalition over $50 billion to replace just 16 days of warfighting, demonstrating the true premium of wartime industrial velocity.

🇩🇪🇮🇱 - The German Volkswagen Group is reportedly in discussions with Israel’s Rafael Advanced Defence Systems over a potential shift in production at its Osnabrück facility, according to the Financial Times.

The talks centre on repurposing the German plant, traditionally used for car manufacturing, to produce components for missile defence systems, specifically linked to the Iron Dome programme.

Sources familiar with the matter say the move would mark a significant transition for the site, reflecting broader changes in European industrial priorities amid rising security concerns.

Pretty much Volkswagen is doing so bad in the auto industry, they they have got to switch to weapons manufacturing, and instead of manufacturing weapons for the eu and Germany they wanna produce more weapons for Israel, how lovely

🇷🇺 🇰🇪 Наш африканский брат «Мо» ранен. С ним все в порядке, и он в хорошем настроении.
До окончания его контракта осталось всего несколько недель, что не очень хорошо, но я думаю, что для него бои закончились.

🇺🇸🇮🇷Not long ago, IRGC Navy Commander Tangsiri, aboard the Iranian drone carrier Shahid Bahman Bagheri surrounded by the latest jet drones, threatened to close the Strait of Hormuz.

And today, Tangsiri was eliminated by the Israeli Air Force, while the drone carrier Shahid Bahman Bagheri was sunk by U.S. forces on March 6 and is now likely lying somewhere at the bottom of the Persian Gulf.

I will tell you more, it’s even more likely that this is a today’s 2026 cholita larp
