PNN – Informed sources say that the Pentagon’s ammunition reserves are facing a serious challenge due to the war against Iran and it will take years to compensate.
According to the report of Pakistan News Network; The Wall Street Journal, citing US officials, says that the country’s military has fired between 1,500 and 2,000 missiles since the start of the war against Iran.
According to informed sources, the ammunition used in this war was so much that it could take six years to replace it.
In this regard, anonymous American officials say that the Pentagon will redirect missiles intended for European countries to its military stockpiles.
It has also been said that the shortage of ammunition caused by the war with Iran may also hinder the process of sending them to Taiwan.
The report comes after Reuters reported last week that the United States had secretly warned a number of its European allies to expect delays in weapons deliveries as the war with Iran has severely depleted US military stockpiles. The warnings were conveyed to allies in secret and private, raising concerns about the US’s ability to meet its arms commitments, the sources said.
Reuters wrote: The delays show how much the war against Iran, which began with US and Israeli air strikes, has increased the pressure on US stockpiles of some vital weapons and ammunition.
