The White House meeting comes as Deputy ‌Defence ⁠Secretary Steve Feinberg has been leading Pentagon work in recent days on a supplemental budget request of around $50 billion that could be released as soon as Friday, one of the people said.

The push to boost production has intensified following US military strikes ⁠on Iran, where the US deployed Tomahawk cruise missiles, F-35 stealth fighters and low-cost one-way attack drones on Saturday.

Tomahawk missile maker Raytheon has a new agreement with the Pentagon to eventually ramp production to 1 000 units annually.

The Pentagon currently plans to buy 57 of the missiles in ⁠2026 at an average cost of $1.3 million each.
