The Pentagon reported that the U.S. military launched over 850 Tomahawk cruise missiles during the four-week conflict with Iran.
The Pentagon is concerned about the speed at which its cruise missile inventory is being depleted.
The Pentagon is monitoring the number of Tomahawk missiles already launched and growing increasingly concerned about this rate of consumption, which could not only affect long-term operations against Iran but also impact future military operations.
By "future operations," the report refers to potential conflicts in the Taiwan Strait. The report warns that at this rate of consumption, the United States could find itself inadequately prepared for a military confrontation with its primary geopolitical rival—China.
