๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ โ€” Senator Mark Kelly (D-AZ) has revealed information about the Pentagon's classified briefing on weapons stockpiles to CBS News anchor Margaret Brennan, stating the following munitions have been used so much it is "shocking how deep we have gone into these magazines" and replenishment will take years:
- Tomahawk ship-launched cruise missile
- ATACMS ground-launched ballistic missile
- SM-3 interceptor missile, used by the U.S. Navy Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense System
-
THAAD anti-ballistic missile interceptors
- Patriot rounds, likely referring to PAC-3 air defense interceptors

This means that every strategic non-aerial American air defense interceptor is in low supply, except for America's anti-ICBM defense system which is irrelevant in conflict with Iran and will not be used.
