CSIS is reporting that U.S. missile systems heavily used in the war with Iran, including Land Attack Missile, Terminal High Altitude Area Defense and Patriot, will require three or more years to return to prewar inventory levels. This assessment comes from its study, "Rebuilding U.S. Missile Inventory: A Multiyear Project," by Mark F. Cancian and Chris H. Park.

The Center for Strategic and International Studies also noted that FIFA has committed $625 million, routed through the Federal Emergency Management Agency, for additional security funding for U.S. cities hosting matches for the 2026 World Cup. This information is detailed in "The Terrorist Threat to the 2026 World Cup" by Daniel Byman and Riley McCabe.

Separately, CSIS's "Global Terrorism Threat Assessment 2026" by Alexander Palmer, Daniel Byman, Alexander Margolis, Riley McCabe and Erin Oppel indicates that terrorism incidents and fatalities in the United States increased in 2025 to 40 attacks and 31 deaths. The report stated that terrorism in the U.S. remains less prevalent than in other regions.

Finally, CSIS highlighted a significant disparity in shipbuilding capacity, reporting that the United States has only 66 shipyards, while China possesses over 300. This finding is from "Revisiting the Relationship Between Economic and Sea Power" by Benjamin Jensen with Mackenzie Eaglen.
