U.S. has used 'virtually all' of its long-range precision missiles during Iran war: Reuters

The United States has reportedly exhausted a significant portion of its long-range precision missile stockpile during its five-month conflict with Iran, according to sources familiar with the matter. These advanced weapons, including the Army Tactical Missile Systems (ATACMS) and Precision Strike Missiles (PrSM), play a crucial role in the military's arsenal, enabling accurate strikes from a distance.

However, the extent to which the U.S. has depleted its supply of these munitions has not been previously disclosed. The sources caution that the dwindling missile supplies could limit the U.S.'s ability to deter adversaries, including Russia and China. While the Pentagon maintains that America possesses the most powerful military in the world and has ample munitions for any conflict, analysts express concern about the availability of such weapons in the event of a prolonged engagement with a nation like China, which has strong air defenses.

The supply figures have raised concerns within the administration, with some officials advocating for more cautious approaches to avoid depleting critical weapon stocks.
