"The bottom line is that the American submarine force, the “point of the
spear” of American power, upon which so many military plans depend, is
unprepared to meet the current threat environment, and there are no
quick fixes. It has taken decades—and a sequence of bad assump­tions and
poor decisions—to fall into the current state of unpreparedness, and it
will take years, as well as significant investments in both new ship
construction and submarine repair capacity, to recover.
..
The priority of American national security policymakers today must be
the revitalization of the nation’s defense industrial base. We have let
it atrophy for far too long. But even within that priority, special
emphasis must be placed upon the submarine industrial base, both new
con­struc­tion and repair capacity. Because of the severity of the
Chinese threat to American national interests in the Pacific, and the
specific role of sub­marines in both deterring that threat and
responding if deterrence breaks down, addressing shortfalls in submarine
production and repair must be at the head of the line. Or our navy faces
being sunk at the pier."
