Project replication is a new type of program that is designed to produce and procure thousands of small "attritable weapon system" instead of buying a single large system. "attritable weapon systems" are weapons that are designed so that they can be lost in battle (attritable means they can be used up, like ammo). For example a $1m drone (or even a cheaper one) can be sent to take out an enemy SAM systems without risking a $120m jet.
