The U.S. Department of Defense (Pentagon) acknowledged in its report that there is a shortage of ammunition linked to the ongoing conflict with Iran, a factor that was largely unconfirmed during the Trump administration. The report explained that the consumption of ammunition during the "Magnificent Rage" operations has led to a depletion of strategic stockpiles, compounded by industrial obstacles hindering replenishment. Nevertheless, the department has taken measures to accelerate production. The report confirmed that Iranian strikes targeting U.S. bases in the Gulf destroyed hundreds of buildings and facilities, caused damage to the aircraft fleet—including the destruction of four F-15 fighters and damage to F-35 jets—as well as the destruction of multiple KC-135 and MQ-9 Reaper drones, with over 50,000 American military personnel involved in these operations. The report indicates that the ammunition shortage has contributed to a decrease in large-scale attacks against Iran during the summer.
