While precise data is classified, publicly available information suggests the US has used up many difficult-to-manufacture weapons.

President Donald Trump has denied reports that the US is suffering a munitions shortage and vowed in a social media post to seek "long term jail sentences" for those suspected of leaking information. "The U.S. has massive amounts of 'munitions,' especially of certain types," Trump posted on Thursday morning. "Additionally, large amounts are being manufactured and shipped to the US as needed." Trump and the Pentagon face mounting questions about the state of the military's arsenal, with the war now in its sixth month and a peace deal remaining elusive. Iran responded to reports of shrinking US supplies by saying its locally produced weapons gave it the ability to respond to "any threat". "Each day, the signs of the enemy's diminishing capabilities become more apparent," Defence Minister Majid Ibn-e-Reza posted on X. "But our Armed Forces - backed by the nation's defence industry - are fully equipped to respond to any threat." He added that "those who are now seeking to buy security and military superiority through imported systems will soon realise that Iran's indigenous technology is superior to any system in the region". After the US spent vast quantities of difficult-to-manufacture weapons during the combat operation known as Operation Epic Fury and the tit-for-tat strikes since, the Trump administration has sought to assure Americans that the country's missile stockpiles remain robust. CBS News, the BBC's US partner, reported the US has gone through much of its global stockpile of long-range precision missiles during the war, citing two unnamed sources with direct knowledge of the subject.
