So, how was your source allowed to inspect, count, and then ascertain what is left, to what is being spoken for? That is some serious insider information. Why hasn't your source won a Pulitzer yet?

With good GPS, the JDAM can hit within about 16 feet (5 meters), but if that’s unavailable, the INS typically keeps the error to roughly 98 feet (30 meters) for flights up to 100 seconds.


Good enough for me.


The issue with JDAMs is not that they're not good weapons. It's that they have to be launched from traditional aircraft near a target from the air.

Tomahawks and other top end systems are long range strike weapons. That's why they are being used so quickly, because whenever the US flies a strike aircraft over Iran recently, it has been hit using realtime Chinese beidou targeting systems given to the Iranians.

Too much smoke for there not to be fire.
And it makes sense, given how much we’ve unloaded on Iran.

A shortage of munitions might explain how they are somehow going to get us to pay tribute to the Iranians in perpetuity

If you believe this, you're an idiot


Well, most of the people in this thread are idiots because this article is referring to the newly procured PRSMs that have replaced ATACMS in the US Army’s HIMARS launchers. Of course they are almost used up. They have not been produced for long and ATACMs are not even in production anymore.

LINK

Its not referring to Tomahawks, JASSMs, or LRASMs. The article title is poorly worded so I see why its tripping people up. That is why that some of you may want to actually start reading articles and not just poorly written headlines. Although, US stockpiles of PAC3 patriot interceptors (patriot missile that is effective at downing ballistic missiles) are running low globe wide as they too have not been around for too long and their production numbers were low. Trump has gotten them to increase production to 2000 a year by 2030 but that cant come soon enough. Old PAC2 interceptors are ineffective at combatting ballistic missiles.
When you see videos of 12 air defense missiles going up to intercept 2 Iranian ballistic missiles and hitting nothing, you are witnessing the use long outdated PAC2s.

I saw a video on youtube that we purchased 2000 drones from Ukraine. Perhaps we will use those to knock iranian drones out of the sky instead of expensive missiles.

I’m not really buying this. Then again I don’t know how long that missile inventory has been in production.

Also we probably gave some to Ukraine.

I love the irony of faceless X bots calling out an article with anonymous sources. The point is mostly valid, but still highly ironic.
