The Air Force flies planes with an average age of 29 years old. The Navy is shrinking to 280 ships by 2037. And, the Army continues to grow smaller, missing out on last year’s recruiting goal by 25 percent. None of these problems at the root of our flagging conventional deterrence are new. With all those forced CoViD vaccines and woke training, many young people decided not to sign up. With conventional capabilities lagging, what’s left is… you know what. More panic about the US-China military balance. "Everybody look busy!" isn't a full-credit answer. We need $1 trillion for high tech defense R&D in the next 5 years. https://t.co/NBKjFdcRAF — David P. Goldman (@davidpgoldman) November 9, 2022
