Army deploys long-range missiles to China’s doorstep



By Bill Gertz - The Washington Times - Wednesday, April 17, 2024
NEWS AND ANALYSIS:

The Army recently dispatched a new long-range missile system to the Philippines for the first time since the U.S. in 2019 exited the Intermediate-range Nuclear Forces Treaty, which banned such deployments.

Gen. Charles Flynn, commander of U.S. Army Pacific forces, said the deployment of the new missile system is “historic” and highlights continuous Army transformation to deal with a complex and challenging environment.

“The planning, transportation and deployment of the newest U.S. Army long-range precision fires system supports a safe, stable and secure Indo-Pacific in partnership with our allies from the Armed Forces Philippines,” Gen. Flynn told Inside the Ring.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Has anyone checked to see if they are the real things or are they mockups with no fuel?  I'm thinking like the military along the border carrying weapons sans bullets. :shrug:
