I don’t think this is a very valuable weapon for use in such a conflict anymore. They’re very expensive and, at this point, relatively easy to intercept. Really the whole thing is a holdover from when our idea of a large scale war was nuking the fuck out of central Europe to stop the soviets.

Generally speaking it seems us defense posture is to stockpile stuff and hope it’s enough, maybe starting production on newer systems in mass if anything promising pops up in due course.
