The article focused on the United States' capacity to sustain the ongoing war against Iran in terms of remaining ammunition stocks and how this impacts political and military decision-making. It highlights that the U.S. ammunition reserves are being significantly depleted due to current operations, with more than half of the stockpiles of air defense systems and interceptor missiles exhausted within just 39 days of fighting. Although Trump acknowledged a shortage of some ammunition supplies, he affirmed that stockpiles are not completely depleted and that preparations for resupply are underway. However, rebuilding inventories could take anywhere from one to four years at a cost exceeding $20 billion. Estimates suggest that escalation after the elections is possible but will face challenges related to funding and production. Meanwhile, Iran still maintains a high percentage of its stockpiles, complicating the balance of power in the conflict. The potential scenarios in the weeks following the elections are being anticipated, with expectations ranging from limited escalation to a settlement or a stalemate.
