I mean, we’re saying this with a Boeing Starliner stranded at the ISS.
Meanwhile another US company, which is also a defense contractor, has revolutionized the space industry. It regularly launches satellites by the dozens and can rendezvous with the ISS anytime that NASA asks. The fact that one company, Boeing, is struggling with a product means absolutely nothing to the industry as a whole.
But sure, America has a super-secret anti-hypersonic missile system that’s just like the Iron Dome
It’s absolutely no secret. It’s a Patriot System and it’s quite capable of handling the laughable “Hypersonic Missiles”, i.e. repurposed non maneuvering ballistic trajectory junk from the 80s and 90s, that adversaries field today.
Does the US have perfect gear that never fails? Absolutely not, some of our stuff is junk or near junk, but when it comes to this kind of thing the the US has no peer.
You’re even fan-casting the existence of anti-missile systems the US admits it doesn’t have.
