Sources indicate that "virtually all" of these specific weapons have been used, raising concerns about military readiness for future engagements and the ability to deter adversaries. Other key munitions, including Patriot interceptors and Tomahawk cruise missiles, have also seen substantial depletion, with reports suggesting significant percentages expended.
