Semiconductors play an important role in defense production.
The United States must become a major semiconductor producer and deny the Russian Federation access to these technologies. This was stated by US President Joe Biden on May 3 during a visit to the Lockheed Martin plant in Alabama, which produces Javelin portable missile systems supplied to Ukraine.
“The United States can produce its own semiconductors. “And that means we want to get back in the game and become a major semiconductor manufacturer,” Biden said. “He also added that” computer chips feed much of modern life. ”
“These are our phones, our technologies play an important role in defense production. And it is necessary that Russia does not have access to these semiconductor technologies,” said the US President.
The US Congress has initiated the replenishment of military reserves , especially the Stinger portable anti-aircraft missile systems and the Javelin portable anti-tank missile systems.
