According to reports, the US has warned its allies that delivery of some key weapons could be delayed for up to five years due to the exhaustion of some of its weapons and ammunition stocks. The report said that Germany has requested the US to speed up delivery of the Tomahawk cruise missile and the “Typhon” missile system, but the manufacturer is unlikely to complete the relevant orders within the next five years. The report said that according to estimates, the US used more than half of the “Patriot” missiles, one-third of the “Tomahawk” missiles, and nearly half of the “Saad” anti-missile interceptor bombs in the Iranian war. The US Congressional Budget Office released a report this month saying that since June 2025, US stocks of interceptor ammunition have been consumed by one-half to two-thirds. Even under the premise of increasing production, it will take at least five years to rebuild the US interceptor bomb inventory.
