Musk predicts U.S. defeats in future wars without reforming the military

TheUS will not win the next wars if the army is not immediately reformed. This was stated by American billionaire Ilon Musk in social network X (former Twitter) on February 7.

This is how Musk commented on a post by entrepreneur Chamath Palihapitiya, in which the latter claimed that the US Navy plans to spend $40 billion a year for the next 30 years on 364 ships, although part of this amount could go to 10,000 attack UAVs that could "cover the whole world."

"Unless urgent and significant changes are made, the U.S. will suffer a crushing defeat in the next war," Musk wrote.

According to Musk the current strategy is to build a small number of weapons at a high price to fight "yesterday's war."
