Reply to "Is the global chip shortage effecting MFP deliveries?"

Approx 10-12% of global microchips are manufactured in the USA.

Apple is incredibly reliant on one fab factory from a company called TSMC based in Taiwan that is vulnerable to missile attack from China.

TSMC and Samsung have announced plans to build new fab buildings in the USA but it will take years before finished product can be shipped.

The US high tech defence industry is heavily reliant on a steady stream of microchip processors to build it's products.
