The renewed conflict with Iran has reportedly placed significant pressure on America's missile stockpiles. According to a media report citing defense experts, the U.S. has expended a substantial number of advanced missiles—including THAAD interceptors, Patriot air defense missiles, and Tomahawk cruise missiles—during military operations against Iran. Analysts say replenishing these inventories could take years due to limited production capacity. The revelation comes as US President Donald Trump reiterated Friday that the ceasefire in the conflict was over. The early phase of the Iran conflict saw the US military fire thousands of key missiles used for long-range precision strikes and to defend against Iranian air and missile attacks. #unitedstates #iran #usiranwar #usiranwar2026 #thaad #patriots #tomahawkmissiles Times Of India (TOI) Is The Largest Selling English Daily In The World.
