Pentagon Launches FORTRESS Initiative to Keep Major US Bases Self-Sufficient for 90 Days Without Civilian Infrastructure
Read this in the Market Flux appThe Pentagon has launched a program called FORTRESS, ordering every major US military base in the continental United States to operate independently for at least 90 days without outside electricity, fuel, water, or supplies. The initiative is designed to keep bases functional through a major war scenario that could cripple domestic power grids, shatter global supply chains, and threaten critical infrastructure on American soil.
To achieve that self-sufficiency, the military plans to deploy portable nuclear reactors, large-scale battery storage, and independent microgrids capable of disconnecting installations entirely from the civilian electrical grid. Bases would also maintain strategic reserves of ammunition, fuel, and spare parts.
Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell provided the public rationale in stark terms. "We don't want to rely on standard civilian municipal infrastructure to run our national defense," Parnell said. "It's an intolerable risk." He added: "Power is combat now."
