Pentagon seeks $30bn boost for munitions amid war on Iran




US military officials said the Pentagon’s budget includes more than $30bn to replenish critical munitions stockpiles depleted during the US-Israeli war on Iran.

Among the most strained supplies are Patriot air defence systems and THAAD interceptors, used to counter short- and medium-range ballistic missiles.

The funding would also cover long-range Precision Strike Missiles and Mid-Range Capability systems used by the US Army.
