Trump 2026

Everyone needs to know the extent of what the U.S did.

An unarmed Iranian ship invited to a joint Indian naval exercise paraded its sailors before the president alongside other participants, including the U.S.

At the last minute, the U.S. withdrew from the exercise and torpedoed the Iranian vessel, then reportedly refused to rescue the survivors, leaving the Sri Lankan Navy to recover bodies from the water.

⚡🇺🇸BREAKING: U.S President Trump wants to personally pic who will rule Iran:

“They are wasting their time. Khamenei’s son is a lightweight. I have to be involved in the appointment, like with Delcy [Rodriguez] in Venezuela”

“Khamenei’s son is unacceptable to me. We want someone that will bring harmony and peace to Iran.”

You cannot simple make an order that says make the factories go Brrrr. The US can make about 600-700 Patriot missiles in a year. They blow through that in a matter of days and they already blew through a huge wad of the stockpile in Ukraine. They dont have the supply chains in place part of that is Biden’s fault. They don’t have the machine tooling, the components or the hardware. Let me explain how stupid what Hegseth said was. You would need

You need machines to make the machine tools starting with 5-Axis CNC Machining Centers: Computer Numerical Control.

Precision Grinding & Boring: Essential for achieving the ultra-smooth surface finishes (Ra ≤ 0.4 µm) required for hydraulic actuators and sealing surfaces.

Carbide & Ceramic Cutting Tools: Solid carbide end mills and carbide-tipped cutters are used to shape “difficult-to-cut” materials like 17-4 PH stainless steel and Grade 5 Titanium.

Advanced Metal Spinning: Instead of machining from a solid block, parts like rocket motor cases and nose cones are often shaped using metal spinning tools. This process shapes a single disc of metal into a seamless cylinder, preserving the material’s grain structure for maximum strength while reducing waste by up to 90%.

Modular Mandrel Tooling: Used specifically for manufacturing large composite motor cases. These mandrels can be adjusted in size and shape to create the internal form around which composite materials are wound.

Swiss CNC Lathes: Used for high-speed, high-precision production of small, intricate parts like pins, connectors, and internal fasteners.

EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining): Critical for creating complex internal shapes in extremely hard metals (like Inconel or Titanium) where traditional cutting tools would fail.

Precision Grinding & Boring: Essential for achieving the ultra-smooth surface finishes (Ra ≤ 0.4 µm) required for hydraulic actuators and sealing surfaces.

There are books on this. You also need semiconductors. I use to translate at a Japanese plant that made these. So although not an engineer I did the presentations and got to see and hear everything. I can tell you A bottleneck for Boeing are the radar seekers which needs a PAC-3 MSE which used a Ka-band active radar seeker for guidance. And you need Gallium and Germanium for that which China holds 60% of along with other rare earth elements. You also need Neon Gas for the lasers used in the semiconductors lythography and guess where much of the global supply for that used to come from? The Donbas area of Eastern Ukraine.

So good luck upping production in time. Currently, it can take up to 24 months to source all necessary parts for a Patriot system! And that’s just the components they would need to make additional factories to do what Hegseth wants which means machine tooling that they also do not have and more components that they do not have.
