According to sources, the United States has used virtually all of its stockpile of long-range precision missiles in the ongoing war with Iran. Previous reporting had already indicated that American stockpiles of both defensive interceptors and long-range missiles were dwindling as the conflict progressed.

As the war continues to drag on, the severe depletion of these military supplies has generated growing fears. Specifically, analysts and officials are concerned that the falling missile inventories could constrain the ability of the U.S. to effectively deter other global adversaries, including Russia and China.
