Ha.
I think the bigger problem than the military is probably the nascent EV industry here. It must use orders of magnitude more of them than the defense industry, which can surely source them indirectly much the way China is still getting the chips we have export controls on.
I doubt they can kill our missile production no matter what they do but they can probably kill Tesla.
