NATO nations have a missile crisis. How did it happen, and can it be fixed?
The war in Ukraine was a warning sign, and the war in Iran made it official: missiles, and the ability to defend against them, is the most important game of cat and mouse for military conflicts this decade. Now the US and its allies are trying to ramp up production of both offensive and defensive weapons, while developing next-generation tools to stay ahead of adversaries.
To tackle this complex issue, Breaking Defense assembled a new video roundtable, featuring Becca Wasser of Bloomberg Economics and Mark Cancian of the Center for International and Strategic Studies. This first video focuses on how the missile threat has evolved and where it stands today. Keep an eye on future episodes, coming soon.
