It could take three to eight years for the U.S. to replenish its stockpile of high-altitude missile interceptors after the military launched nearly 14% of its arsenal during last month’s conflict with Iran, according to a new report by the Jewish Institute for National Security of America.
I remember this came out after the strings of China and Russia news about new weapons, including potential nuclear delivery systems, and after US ground based ICBM’s and their infrastructure were reported to be in shambles with barely even any hope of imrpoving the situation. So this is the best info their military can produce, and even the entire idea was taken from Russia which cheaply upgraded their huge stockpile of even WW-2 era bombs with guide kits and used them with devastating effect in Ukraine.
