A report cited by NDTV says the US missile-defense inventory has been heavily used during the conflict involving Iran. It states that “virtually all” of the US missile interceptors have been depleted, indicating that the available defense assets were drawn down substantially rather than reserved in significant amounts. The report also says the US Army used “virtually all” of its highly accurate long-range surface-to-air weapons during the same period. Taken together, the accounts describe a large-scale expenditure of both interceptor missiles and long-range air-defense systems. The information is presented as an assessment of weapon usage during the war, without detailing how many interceptors were expended in absolute terms, which specific interceptor types were involved, or how quickly replacements might be procured. No further operational outcomes or casualty figures are included in the provided excerpts. Overall, the reporting focuses on the extent of depletion in US air and missile defense assets attributed to the conflict.
