U.S. Defense Stockpiles Depleted During Iran War
CNN network data shows that the United States has consumed approximately 80% of its stockpiles of THAAD missile system missiles and 50% of Patriot missiles during the war with Iran, leading to a sharp decline in its defensive capabilities and a serious depletion of its reserves. Almost all long-range precision weapons, such as Tomahawk, S-M, and PrSM missiles, have been nearly exhausted, according to military sources and research centers. This shortage raises concerns about the U.S. military's ability to continue operations and the potential for repeated escalation in the region, especially given the continued slow pace of production reactivation, which could take years to fully replenish stocks. Amid the deteriorating reserves, Iranian targeting operations have been canceled, and reactions from U.S. allies in the Gulf have expressed fears over decreased efficacy in countering potential Iranian attacks.
