Current global security landscape presents significant challenges for US national defense. Ongoing conflicts in Ukraine continue to escalate, with Russia maintaining aggressive military postures and conducting extensive missile attacks. Nuclear proliferation risks remain elevated, with Iran's nuclear capabilities and North Korea's potential strategic threats under close scrutiny. The US military faces critical readiness challenges, particularly in fighter jet inventory, which could compromise defensive capabilities. Geopolitical tensions persist across multiple theaters, including potential maritime confrontations and regional instabilities that could rapidly develop into broader strategic challenges.
