US has used 'virtually all' of its long-range precision missiles during Iran war, sources say

According to three anonymous sources, the United States has nearly exhausted its stockpile of long-range precision missiles, such as the Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS) and Precision Strike Missiles (PrSM), during its five-month conflict with Iran. These missiles, valued at over $1 million each, are critical for conducting precise strikes from a safe distance and were instrumental in supporting Ukrainian forces against Russia. With most of these weapons already deployed, concerns have arisen regarding the U.S. military’s preparedness for future conflicts. While the White House claims the U.S. has more munitions than any other country and that production is increasing rapidly, analysts warn that current rates of arms production may still fall short of sustaining a prolonged war.

Bias read (Center): The article presents information from multiple anonymous sources and includes direct quotes from the White House, providing a balanced view of the situation without overtly favoring one side. It reports on the depletion of military resources and includes both concerns raised by insiders and the U.S.
