The U.S. Army has used up much of its stockpile of highly accurate long-range missiles during its five-month war with Iran, according to three people familiar with the data, raising concerns about the military’s readiness for future conflicts.
The missiles are principally the Army’s surface-to-surface weapons, known as Army Tactical Missile Systems (ATACMS) and Precision Strike Missiles (PrSM). The U.S. has used “virtually all” of these weapons, according to two of the sources.
The degree to which the military is running out of ATACMS and Precision Strike Missiles has not been previously reported.
The long-range munitions are an important part the military’s arsenal, allowing accurate strikes from a safe distance. U.S.-supplied ATACMS have played a key role in the war in Ukraine, allowing Ukrainian forces to attack targets inside Russia. The PrSM is a newer, more advanced generation that will replace the ATACMS, which have a shorter range.
Americans are idiots for allowing this debt on their ledger.
Ah yes. Like every government asks their populace what atrocities they’d like to commit. I hate an argument by hypocrisy, but your statement is stupid. The majority of Americans want nothing to do with this, if they even have the knowledge of how any of this economic stuff works…just the usual stupid 30% brainless sycophants.
Voting out politicians that support atrocities is a thing. Apparently you think that’s not an option for Americans even though “Americans want nothing to do with this”. If it’s important make it a voting priority. If not STFU. It’s currently not a priority.
You think we actually vote on it? Both parties bomb the shit out of other countries
