Further procurement of these weapons is little more than a jobs program and to keep an active production facility that can be ramped up if needed. Number of these weapons stockpiled is classified.
JAGM SEEKER has passed field test with flying colors. Awsome system. It is ready for production. Might even come online early because it is so much more effective than Hellfire. Wouldn't be surprized if CIA was secretly using them on DRONES now.

We'll have to wait for further news!

"The reduction reflects shifting investment to a new next-generation land attack weapon, said Lt. Caroline Hutcheson, a Navy spokeswoman at the Pentagon, who also noted that the current inventory of Block IV Tactical Tomahawks exceeds combat requirements. A recertification line for existing missiles will be established to retain effectiveness of current TacToms, she added"

"The department is very committed to unmanned aircraft,” Lescher said when asked about the Fire Scouts. “In prior years there was a thought the aircraft would be used for special operations forces,” he added, but now, through the global force management system, those needs will be filled by aircraft operating from nearby LCSs."

This was a foreseeable development. The US military does not have horses pulling their canons anymore either. With technological advancements the old goes out and the new comes in.

China owns most of the US debt, so what happens to that debt if China invades the US?

They only own 7% of US debt. And they are now the world's second largest economy. Their avg. Gdp is 9.91%. And their central govt. debt is at 15% of the economy. And they have been growing their military by leaps and bounds the last few years.

Nice fail, Vag! Really nice fail.

Hey Swallow...Who cancelled production of the F-22? We could be selling them to our allies and keeping our supply where it's needed but no, the Jarrett puppet cancelled it's production...

I find this mind boggling, that any American president would GIVE UP weapon systems that have a proven track record, and are some of the most feared armament's by our enemies in our arsenal! Is this what he referred to with his FLEXIBILITY remark?

Obama is seeking to abolish two highly successful missile programs that experts say have helped the U.S. Navy maintain military superiority for the past several decades.
The Tomahawk missile program—known as “the world’s most advanced cruise missile”—is set to be cut by $128 million under Obama’s fiscal year 2015 budget proposal and completely eliminated by fiscal year 2016, according to budget documents released by the Navy.

In addition to the monetary cuts to the program, the number of actual Tomahawk missiles acquired by the United States would drop significantly—from 196 last year to just 100 in 2015. The number will then drop to zero in 2016.
The Navy will also be forced to cancel its acquisition of the well-regarded and highly effective Hellfire missiles in 2015, according to Obama’s proposal.

The proposed elimination of these missile programs came as a shock to lawmakers and military experts, who warned ending cutting these missiles would significantly erode America’s ability to deter enemy forces.
“The administration’s proposed budget dramatically under-resources our investments in munitions and leaves the Defense Department with dangerous gaps in key areas, like Tomahawk and Hellfire missiles,” said Rep. Randy Forbes (R., Va.), a member of House Armed Services Committee....... MORE....

The United States has spent nearly $80 billion to develop the most advanced stealth fighter jet in history, the F-22 Raptor, but the Air Force recently found out firsthand that while the planes own the skies at modern long-range air combat, it is “evenly matched” with cheaper, foreign jets when it comes to old-school dogfighting.

Unfortunately that doesn't surprise me. He wants to brings us to our knees.

How exactly?

These are offensive weapons. Not defensive.

No country currently has the means to launch a successful invasion of the United States.

Our geography and nuclear weapons assures no nation will attack us in the foreseeable future.

So go on.

How are we being "brought to our knees?"

So you're OK if only ONE nuke out of many lands on American soil! And what about the combined power of China and Russia attacking us...after all they are both traditional enemies of ours! I imagine that someone of your intelligence knows all about this!

What in the world does China stand to gain from invading us and taking us over? The only way their invasion is logical is if aggression comes from us against them first. Lets be honest here, China has stand nothing to gain from a invasion on us, unless they had some power trip and sudden enlightenment on taking over the world in a fascist pattern, I don't see a Chinese invasion happening.

You, of course, forget about the very real conflict between China and Japan. As we have a treaty (written on tissue paper if anyone think B. Insane would honor it!) with Japan, and this is a very real problem. From yesterday....."Is China preparing for a ‘short, sharp war’ against Japan?"

If you want to keep them then you have to pay for them by raising taxes.

Or cut entitlements! Ow, did that hurt you?

So because you are too cheap to pay your full share of taxes you demand that the elderly lose their social security and medicare instead?

No, I didn't forget about that, it's just that doesn't necessarily apply to my point. You see, we would declare war on China as a result of Chinese aggression against Japan. We would be involving ourselves against them, which would be coined as aggressive behavior on our part. Now, read my original post, I said that the only way China would invade us if we sparked some sort of aggression against them.

No, I demand doing away with obumaphones, doing away with any payments to ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS, doing away with paying for welfare for a single mother with more than one child, small things like this that cost us BILLIONS of dollars a year....Also that $33 Billion in foreign aid, needs to be addressed!
