The United States has reportedly fired more than 850 Tomahawk cruise missiles during four weeks of conflict with Iran, raising concerns within the Pentagon about the pace of weapons use.
The Washington Post reported that the high consumption rate has triggered internal discussions on replenishing stockpiles and ramping up production. Reuters said it could not independently verify the report.

The White House pushed back on concerns, with press secretary Karoline Leavitt stating that the U.S. military has sufficient munitions to meet the objectives of Operation Epic Fury, as outlined by President Donald Trump.
She added that the administration remains focused on strengthening the armed forces and accelerating domestic weapons production.
The Pentagon, now referred to as the Department of War under Trump, echoed confidence. Spokesman Sean Parnell said the military has everything it needs to carry out missions at the President’s direction and timeline.
