Original: Defense Firms Are Rushing to Boost Missile Output. It's Coming Too Late. https://www.wsj.com/politics/national-security/

The piece suggests current production surges cannot keep pace with demand driven by stockpile depletion in Ukraine and rising global tensions, leaving US and allied arsenals vulnerable in the near term.
Why now: Ongoing wars and great-power rivalry have highlighted acute shortages in missile stockpiles and production capacity.
