Biden administration missile defense review launch 'imminent'

摘要

The Pentagon is readying to launch in the next couple of weeks an examination of the mix of missile defense capabilities the Biden administration believes the U.S. military requires, but it's not clear yet whether the final product will be a stand-alone volume or folded into a larger defense strategic assessment, a senior official told lawmakers today. "We are planning to start a missile defense review imminently," Leonor Tomero, deputy assistant secretary of defense for nuclear and missile defense policy, told the Senate Armed Services strategic forces subcommittee today.
