Trump Promises US to Pursue State of the Art Missile Defense

The United States will put together a state of the art missile defense system as part of an overall rebuilding of the US military, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump said during a speech to the American Legion in Cincinnati, Ohio on Thursday.

WASHINGTON (Sputnik) — Trump also noted that the military will operate under a "peace through strength" policy if he is elected US president.

"We will rebuild our depleted military and pursue a state of the art missile defense," Trump stated in his speech.

All branches of the military will have the best equipment and training so no one will be able to compete with us, Trump added.
