  1. The US defense and economy is growing because of the war in Ukraine Truer words were never spoken. Missile systems provided to Ukraine from US stockpiles were of pre - Y2k vintage. In a way it is a miracle these 35 years old units - worked at all. Ukraine is the ideal vehicle to clear out these aged units from US Inventory. Otherwise, Eventually and soon they go to the scrap heap. Giving these unit to Ukraine to dispose of brings value and utility to agree US weapon systems that would otherwise go to the graveyard - unused. What is the deterrent value of a vast arsenal of weapons - that the administration fears to use ? What is the value of high tech arsenal everyone fears to use? Zero. It is the same as flushing those defense dollars down the toilet. The enemy notices the impotent fear.
