Iran war restart wouldn’t require US to drain tight supply of top-tier missiles, analysts say
Stripes.com's John Vandiver reports analysts at CSIS saying a renewed war with Iran would not require draining depleted stocks of high-end missiles, which U.S. forces could instead manage with cheaper bombs despite having used one-third to two-thirds of key inventories. American forces initially leaned on long-range missiles before shifting to shorter-range weapons as Iranian air defenses eroded.
