US military's missile stock nearly depleted in Iran conflict
U.S. forces have exhausted most of their long-range high-precision missile stockpiles during their ongoing five-month-long war with Iran, raising concerns about their deterrent capability in future conflicts. These missiles, such as the Army's Tactical Missile Systems (ATACMS) and Precision Strike Missiles (Prism), are used to carry out targeted, long-range strikes and have played a pivotal role in the Ukraine war and in their potential to counter adversaries like China and Russia. According to sources, the United States may have depleted approximately 65% of its Patriot missile stockpile, leading to reductions in several key missile systems. There is speculation that the threat of stockpiles running out could diminish the military’s ability to respond effectively to prolonged crises. While the White House has confirmed that the U.S. maintains greater stockpiles than any other country, experts warn that supplies may still be insufficient for extended wars, with modern missile stocks like Prism continuing to grow as part of an alternative strategy to ATACMS.
