U.S. Faces Missile Shortage Amid Ongoing Conflict with Iran
The U.S. military has nearly exhausted its stockpile of long-range precision missiles, including Army Tactical Missile Systems (ATACMS) and Precision Strike Missiles (PrSM), during the ongoing conflict with Iran. This depletion raises concerns about the military's readiness for future conflicts with adversaries like Russia and China. The conflict, initiated by President Trump in February, has stretched into its fifth month, straining U.S. weapons reserves. The Pentagon is working to replenish stockpiles, with defense companies ramping up production to meet demand.
