Trump Administration Rejects Claims Of Munitions Shortage

The rejection comments come after a report found the Army burned through "virtually all" of its stocks of two of its primary long-range precision weapons.

The Trump administration is rejecting concerns that the war in Iran has left the U.S. low on some of its most advanced long-range missiles.

The rejection comments come after a report found the Army burned through “virtually all” of its stocks of two of its primary long-range precision weapons.

The report claims that the army has used all of its inventories of Army Tactical Missile Systems and Precision Strike Missiles during the five-month conflict with Iran.

Officials are concerned that the drawdown could complicate the military’s ability to respond to future crises involving adversaries such as China and Russia. However, the white has disputed any suggestion the U.S. military lacks the weapons needed to carry out its missions.

“We have far more munitions than anyone in the world, and far more than we need,” Trump said.
