US fires 850 Tomahawks at Iran, raising stockpile concerns TurDef
The United States fired more than 850 Tomahawk cruise missiles during the first four weeks of strikes against Iran, raising new questions about US long-range strike inventories.
According to The Washington Post, citing US officials, many of the missiles were used during the opening phase of Operation Epic Fury against high-value targets across Iran. Officials described the pace of expenditure as unusually high, with one source warning that Tomahawk stocks in the Middle East had reached “worryingly low levels”.
Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell declined to provide specific figures regarding the number of Tomahawk missiles used or remaining in theatre, stating only that the US military retains “everything it needs to execute any mission”.
Analysts say the figures nonetheless provide an indication of the scale of the campaign. Mackenzie Eaglen, a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, has estimated that the US Navy possessed roughly 4,000 to 4,500 Tomahawk cruise missiles prior to the conflict. If more than 850 missiles were fired during the first month of operations, the remaining theoretical inventory could fall to roughly 3,000–3,600 missiles.
However, this figure does not represent the number of missiles that could be immediately used in combat. A portion of the stockpile is typically allocated for training, testing, maintenance cycles and upgrades to newer Block V variants. They also generally estimate that only around 60–70 percent of the total inventory is readily available for operational use at any given time. Under that assumption, the usable stock after the Iran strikes could fall closer to roughly 2,500–3,000 missiles.
