I love how you just drop silence like that does something. The Department of War is already receiving US mined and manufactured from Mountain Pass. I have no idea the exact percentage but I do know that the DOW has already been stock piling these minerals for a while now so.....
Look at the comment above you.... its another check against what you are saying. Unless you are talking 2030 then sure all give you that but again the US has stockpiled these minerals and we could if we had none right now repurpose minerals from our enormous bone yards.
For defense purposes its already using US produced and as it all scales up it will continue to increase until not just military but National Security areas only use US or 5 Eye minerals.
It would be different if the US did not have anything either built or being built but we already have and have spent years doing so.
The comment above is AI generated so there is no credible source for data even then it confirms that the military have almost zero supply currently and might hope to have a minimal degree of supply by 2027.
The dates in the AI summary are not even logical comparing 'Short‑term (next 2‑3 years)' to ' Medium‑term (2025‑2027)'!
Does the AI engine even know we are already in 2026!?!
S I L E N C E anticipates the fact that you repeatedly do not have the data to support your assertions...and demonstrably you don't!
Just like the US military industrial combine you are an apologist for, you are operating on maximum wing and a prayer hopium and blind faith in US exceptionalism, when the reality does not match up.
Welp here straight from MP Materials from literally a year ago about commerical production of the whole supply chain starting.

Heres another one that also producing and has even launched recycling efforts.

I mean how many more facts do you need? MP Materials is building a second plant even for the DOW specifically. Also MP's mine produces 15% of the REE in the world and they arent going to China anymore.
Oh and if you want a whole of industry look here ya go

What percentage of the US military and its suppliers needs can be provided by non Chinese refined rare earths (or equivalents) suppliers now and into the future?
1%?
3%?
5%?
Be specific.
S I L E N C E.
The US military industrial combine is crippled for at least a decade - beholden to Chinas refined rare earths supply chain dominance.
Time for the obese US imperialist hegemony to eat the bitter fruits of its decades of extraordinary entitlement, arrogance and negligence...
