US military missile and ammunition stockpiles for certain models have been reduced by approximately 50 percent during the nearly two-month standoff. Replenishing depleted stocks will take one to four years at current production rates, with high-end models requiring more time. The depletion poses a risk to long-term readiness for other high-intensity conflicts. Certain missile and ammunition models are 50 percent depleted following two months of engagement with Iran. Reports state that certain missile models and ammunition stocks have been reduced by 50 percent in under two months of conflict with Iran. Replenishment is estimated to take one to four years depending on the model.
