As expected, you provide no real numbers behind your argument to suggest that building PGM inventory is unaffordable. The point is to get to a point where you have a good and robust capability for the various contingencies and O plans. With reasonable risk. The same is true for any other alternate investment track. Show us how 2-3x increase in some vital Army, and AF/Navy munition program buy rates is unaffordable. I would argue that it really isn't as long as they chose their weapon types strategically and increase buy rates.
