The Pentagon prepares every major US military base to survive 90 days without outside support - no civilian power grid, no global supply chains, no external fuel or water. The initiative, revealed in documents reviewed by Fox News Digital, envisions portable nuclear reactors, massive battery storage and microgrids that could completely disconnect facilities from civilian electricity. Strategic reserves of munitions, fuel, critical minerals and medical supplies will accumulate based on wartime consumption rates. Civilian factories are identified in advance to switch to defense production during a crisis. The Pentagon's chief spokesman, Sean Parnell, put it bluntly: “Power is combat now. Without electricity you lose communications, water, logistics, production lines and only basic military command structures. ".
