During a 12-day conflict between Israel and Iran, the United States expended roughly 14% to 25% of its entire THAAD missile interceptor stockpile to help defend Israel from massive Iranian missile attacks.
This rapid depletion has exposed a significant vulnerability in the US missile defense arsenal, with experts warning it could take years and billions of dollars to replenish these high-end interceptors.
