US calls for Japan's help to replenish missile inventory
"It is clear that the United States military industrial base cannot meet all the strategic challenge that we have and obligations we have,” Ambassador Rahm Emanuel said.
He spoke as Japan and the U.S. held their first talks to accelerate military industrial cooperation, two months after an April agreement between Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida and U.S. President Joe Biden.
This week’s talks in Tokyo are between U.S. Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment William LaPlante and his Japanese counterpart, Masaki Fukasawa, head of the Acquisition, Technology and Logistics Agency.
They agreed to establish working groups for missile co-production and for maintenance and repair of U.S. Navy ships and Air Force aircraft in the region, the Japanese Defense Ministry said in a statement.
Yesterday, the two countries held the first meeting of the Japanese shipyard repair working group, which will help U.S. shipbuilders focus on new ships while allowing ships to be repaired in Japan for greater efficiency and deterrence.

How the f@ck is Rahm Emanuel still around!? And where is his military experience?
He's ex-IDF Special Forces.
Prolly in Japan to kill two birds with one stone.
Thank you. Wonder what his “Mengele” brother is up to?
Yeah, how? This is dick deep in the military industrial complex?
Because you dumb asses gave it all to Ukraine
Might want to replenish our supply of Javelin anti tank missiles while they're at it. We've seems to sent ours to Russia, or at least it seems, since they've captured Ukraine warehouses stacked to the rafters with them and are now the second-largest user of the US made Javelin missile.
more war grifting...by the one who took down public EDU when sent to chicago to be mayor. It was the final nail, after JEB Bush and FCAT testing, all complained and GW Bush as prez said he'd fix it with NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND. More complaints so Obama said he'd fix it with COMMON CORE. It was all the same shit. Then Rham went to Chicago to be mayor. My niece graduated from college to teach and said there were no opportunities there for her. Didn't want to move. Used her art instead.
We can give away billions in "military aid" but we can't have orange juice at the food bank. Jusayin.
