Fox News
The U.S. used 14% of its global THAAD missile stockpile defending against Iranian strikes, costing $1.5 billion and revealing potential vulnerabilities in air defense systems, according to a report.
Both the U.S. and Israel now face an "urgent need" to replace those stocks and sharply increase production rates.
The U.S. had roughly 632 Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) interceptors before June 13, the day Israel began its offensive in Iran. About 540 interceptors remain in its arsenal based on JINSA’s calculations of interceptor deliveries and use, according to the report.
