U.S. uses hundreds of Tomahawk missiles on Iran, alarming some at Pentagon

More than 850 Tomahawks have been fired in just four weeks, people familiar with the matter said, alarming some Pentagon officials because the weapon’s supply is limited.

The Washington Post

#Tomahawk missiles, which can be launched from Navy surface warships & submarines, have been a staple of #US #military attacks since they were first used in combat in 1991 during the Persian Gulf War. But only a few hundred are manufactured each year, meaning the global supply is limited. The #Pentagon does not publicly disclose how many missiles are in its inventory at any one time.

…The heavy reliance on them in the #Iran #war will require urgent discussions about relocating some from other parts of the world, including the Indo-Pacific, & a concerted long-term effort to build more, said several US ofcls….

The dilemma has laid bare broader concerns in both the #Pentagon & #Congress about the #Trump admin’s war in #Iran, its shifting explanations for why it’s necessary, & the risks a shortage could pose to the #US as it balances the potential for future conflicts….

@Nonilex The USA would now have more Tomahawks left to use against military targets in Iran if they'd not also been using them to kill children and other civilians as part of this illegal war.

The USA is not only completely immoral, but also incredibly stupid.
