If true this is insanity and definitely supports Chinas efforts to deplete Americas military stockpile and make it expensive for you to fight in the Asian Pacific. I saw one comment online that said Trump should be impeached if this is true. The U.S has to stop taking donations from defense companies and cut off those focused on massive vanity projects that are not functional on a dollar to dollar basis. Drones and A.I are the future to replace milion dollar missiles in many instances. Period. Learn from the war in Ukraine. You could have targetted many of these locations in Iran with drones from ships after you eliminated their firing capabilities. China on PPP comparable is designing a far more efficient military. As one person said, "if China attacks Taiwan today the U.S could not defend them". That is frightening. US military used up nearly half of Patriot missiles during Iran war: Analysis
The U.S. military has used up nearly half of its stockpile of Patriot air defense interceptor missiles and heavily expended six other key missile stockpiles during its seven-week strike campaign against Iran, according to a new analysis from the Washington-based think tank Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS).

The U.S. fired almost 50 percent of its Patriot missile stockpile; more than half of Terminal High Altitude Area Defenses (THAADs), which are used to protect against short, medium and intermediate-range missiles; and over 45 percent of its Precision Strike Missiles (PrSMs) stockpiles during the air and missile campaign in Iran, CSIS said in its Tuesday report.

This is the point. 10's of thousands dead is a small price to pay to keep the military complex rolling.
