Recent combat with Iran has put pressure on U.S. munitions stockpiles as the Pentagon pushes defense companies to accelerate production and delivery of critical weapons.Deputy Defense Secretary Steve Feinberg told defense-industry leaders in an Aug. 5 memo that they have 21 days to submit plans for “significantly faster, more aggressive delivery schedules and/or increased production for critical capabilities.”“Years-long development cycles are not acceptable,” Feinberg wrote. “We must dramatically accelerate our program schedules and expand our production capacity now.”The memo also asks companies to propose specific capital investments and facility expansions and to explain how they would work with the Pentagon to increase weapons production. Feinberg also called on industry to demonstrate its willingness to “put skin in the game.” Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell said the responses will help inform the department’s fiscal 2028 budget request.The increased demand comes as the U.S. has used large quantities of advanced munitions during the conflict with Iran, with recent estimates showing declines in stocks of key missile interceptors.A Center for Strategic and International Studies analysis estimated that U.S. stocks of Patriot interceptors fell from 2,330 before the war with Iran, to between 759 and 827 after the latest round of operations.

When people get busy storing supplies, reading survival books, and practicing their skills, it’s easy for them to forget about their pets. But if a major disaster occurs, the last thing you want to do is stress out about finding food for Fido or treating Mr. Whisker’s fractured leg. You’ll want to make sure your pets are healthy and taken care of so you can concentrate on other things. Most people assume they can just feed their pets human food if they have to, but that’s not always true. Animals have different nutritional needs, and foods that are okay for humans could make your pets sick. And there other considerations besides food, anyway. Here are a few things you should gather for them. Want to save this post for later? Click Here to Pin It On Pinterest! 1. Pet Food Start with at least a two-week supply of food, then build from there. How long it lasts depends on what you get. Your pet food will last a lot longer if you buy the good stuff from a pet store and avoid the imported stuff found at places like Walmart. Most dog and cat food is high in fat which…

Riley Green may be one of country music’s rising stars, but his latest on-screen career move came with a little help from a famous friend.During an appearance on “CBS Mornings” on Monday, the 37-year-old Alabama native revealed that “Yellowstone” star Luke Grimes helped open the door to his first acting role, encouraging Green to step outside his comfort zone and eventually helping land him a part on the CBS drama “Marshals.””It happened so organically because he was starting his music career and coming to Nashville a little bit. We wrote together,” said Green, who made his acting debut as Garrett — a former Navy SEAL struggling with PTSD — alongside Grimes in the “Yellowstone” spinoff.TAYLOR SHERIDAN SHOCKS ‘YELLOWSTONE’ FANS WITH NEW SPINOFF SERIES, PROVIDES VIEWERS WITH DARK RIDE “He mentioned something about maybe I should act.

KA-BAR’s latest piece is another Allen Elishewitz collaboration, the aptly-named Elishewitz Pocket Tool or EPT. This is an EDCable fixed blade with sensible cutting geometry and some unique features for a fixie, One thing we like to do here at KnifeNews HQ (in between shareholder meetings, lavish team retreats, and puttering around the world in a plane from the KN fleet) is highlight any trends in the industry – just for fun, really. And when it comes to knife world trends, the EDC fixed blade is an interesting one, because, while it hasn’t exploded in the way that, say, flipper knives did 10 years ago, it has been a very stable sector of the market, with new models rolling out, if not all the time, than at least often enough to keep fans happy. You don’t often see a pocket clip on a fixed blade EDC fixed blades vary widely in size – not unlike folders, we suppose, but because they do not, y’know, fold, their overall size is much more of a consideration. Thus, some EDC fixies are carried on the belt like a larger knife would be – but with the EPT, Elishewitz had his sights set on…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! ESPN star Stephen A. Smith has long been one of the New York Knicks’ loudest critics, but the New York City native struck a different tone this week.Days after the Knicks won their first NBA title in more than five decades, the longtime “First Take” host joined Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart for a live taping of their “Roommates Show” podcast. The event was livestreamed from inside the Infosys Theater at Madison Square Garden on Friday, one day after the Knicks’ long-awaited ticker-tape championship parade.Smith appeared to face boos shortly after he was welcomed to the stage. The noise grew louder when Hart said he had kept mental receipts of Smith’s past Knicks criticism.
