What kind of bullshit answer is that? On the other hand, what else is he supposed to say? “Oh yeah, we burned through 90% of our ballistic missiles, we’re completely defenseless right now”?
I haven’t read that article, but one I read within the past day or two mentioned we’ve used around 800 or so, which is around a quarter of our stock. Okay, I hate being “that guy” so just skimmed this article, which doesn’t mention that stat, just claims 860 missiles fired.
