May 2 (UPI) -- The United States has started warning allies that delivery of weapons systems are likely to be delayed because stockpiles have been drained during the war in Iran.
The Department of Defense has warned several allies in Europe -- including the United Kingdom, Poland, Norway and Estonia -- that there will be delivery delays for several missile systems, Breaking Defense and The Financial Times reported.
The delays, which may also spread to deliveries to Asian allies, have been linked to growing concerns about the numbers of U.S. weapons used since the war in Iran started.
Concerns have also come up as to whether lower stockpiles could affect the United States' ability to defend itself and its allies.
