Update on the missile math situation:
Iran has reduced its daily tempo of missile and drone strikes to about 20+ missile launches and 100+ drone strikes per day.
Taking into account the interceptors that the USA has already used, if this lower tempo continues, the US will be forced to start withdrawing interceptor reserves dedicated to the Pacific theater within 20 to 30 days. In 60 days, the entire US arsenal of interceptor missiles will be depleted.
Assumptions:
The entire US/Israeli reserve of high end interceptors consists of 5k globally with a total of 2.5k positioned in the Middle East.
Every ballistic missile requires 2 to 3 interceptors to be struck down. (Often times, it's significantly more.)
Iran still has around 2k missiles in storage (at least 1500) with tens of thousands of drones.
Taiwan and Ukraine have to be feeling pretty nervous at the moment. If China and North Korea started something right now, the USA would be completely screwed.
