Iran seems to take a good beating every time the conflict flares up. Yet, the IRGC fanatics worry about the quantity of interceptors and gas prices in the US.

Brent crude already approaching <$80 again, while Iran is fully blockaded.
The US military will never run out of interceptors or precision munitions. That’s total hopium. They should be far more worried about their own munitions, as 85-90% of their industrial base has been destroyed.
Army adds $54B to Lockheed PAC-3 agreement, totaling $59B
WASHINGTON — The Army has awarded
Lockheed Martin an undefined contract action (UCA) modification worth $53.86 billion for
PAC-3 Missile Segment Enhancement interceptors, bringing the total value of the seven-year contract to $58.62 billion, the company and
the Army announced today.
The contract comes just months after Lockheed was awarded a nearly $5 billion UCA for the interceptors in April.
Lockheed Martin established a deal with the DoD to increase production capacity for the PAC-3 interceptors in January, resulting in the
initial $4.7 billion UCA in April. The company inked another deal with the Pentagon to ramp up production for the
Precision Strike Missile(PrSM) in March, and late last month, the company signed another massive UCA for nearly
$35 billion to increase production of the
Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) interceptors over a seven-year period.
The additional funding from today’s UCA allows the company to “supercharge” PAC-3 MSE production and triple capacity by the end of 2030, Lockheed Martin’s press release read.
