[Now, for the first time, scientists have
successfully cloned a rhesus monkey
(Macaca mulatta), a primate species noted
for its closeness to humans.
The experts in China used
somatic cells – animal cells other than
sperm and egg cells – from a rhesus monkey
to create the genetically identical copy. ]

It's not Star Wars you can't just clone a fully grown human - you can create a genetically identical copy but they still start out as a baby.
In other words, it would be no quicker - and far more expensive - than just training up an army of regular ol' babies.
