The U.S. is Facing an Ammunition Shortage Due to the Iran War. Here's What That Means.

WASHINGTON -- U.S. military contractors need at least three years to replenish stockpiles of three key weapons systems used heavily in the Iran war, according to an analysis released Wednesday, adding to concerns that American forces would have limited firepower in any future conflict with China.

The weapons systems are Tomahawk cruise missiles, which are used to strike targets deep inside enemy territory, and Patriot and THAAD interceptors that defend against incoming missiles and drones.

“The United States has enough munitions for any plausible scenario in the Iran war, but the depleted inventories have created a window of vulnerability for a potential Western Pacific conflict,” the Center for Strategic and International Studies said in its new report. “The time needed to rebuild those inventories has thus become a major concern.”

Ya know, I believe you really are stupid enough to believe that the pentagon lets Google know what our stockpiles are.

Considering Dan is a retired fleet admiral I'm surprised he has to use google in the first place and isn't invited to sit in all the military briefings on the matter.

Also 6 out of 8 USAF AWAC's [8 in the entire world] were damaged or destroyed in the opening attack by Iran.
US Military is totally powerless in offensive capability w/o these aircraft.

It gives me license to give pussies that never served an un-ending hard-on in their ass for life.
My Military service & my family history to this country is stellar and at the highest level.
Tired of draft dodgers sucking the life out of VETERANS.
