Richard Shelby: “I think you are rushing this Final Rule too hard.”

Russia's launched multiple hypersonic weapons as part of their invasion of the Ukraine and China is continuing to develop its own hypersonic weapons.

As Senator Shelby at our Senate testimony hearing last March pointed out to us, we must maintain what we have before we can build new, and I think he hits the mark head-on.

Deterrence requires spending our limited resources on both offensive and defensive weapons.

We have got to get our arms, one, around the inflation first, and then try to boost our defense capabilities in a dangerous world.
