Default Build more Super Stallions now.

Don't wait, don't debate.

Place an order for a dozen CH-53E Super Stallions with Sikorsky on Monday then
ask the Congress to fund it. (Transfer funds from the DD(X) or F/A-22 or V-22
accounts to cover it in the meantime.)

The Marines have been forced into taking the extraordinary step because they
have only 150 of their only heavy-lift workhorses left in their fleet. Six
Super Stallions have been destroyed in crashes since 2001 and the rest are
logging long hours in the air in war zones in Iraq and Afghanistan.
