Over the last 10 years our defense department has spent an average of about $775 billion per year How can it be that a 6 month war depletes our weapons? Where has the money been going?I’d say that the European Patriot missiles stockpile problem was mostly caused by giving/selling them to Ukraine, which needed and needs them very badly. Some European countries have also done the same, so there is a big shortage of the missiles. The Iran war drained them even further, so the cupboard is extremely empty everywhere. It’s another reason this stupid war that Trump and Hegseth got us into is a total failure.

Saturday at 02:39 PM2 days A Pentagon memo warns of "shortfalls in payroll" accounts after the department raided them to finance combat operations. One Navy official said: "The money for payroll was robbed to pay for overseas contingencies." Non-emergency maintenance has already been postponed. "The piggy bank is broken," said retired naval officer Harlan Ullman. The war has depleted munitions, wrecked Middle Eastern bases, and left a $67 billion emergency funding request stalled in Congress. Trump launched the war on February 28. The Navy's $300 billion budget didn't account for it. Now sailors' paychecks are being cannibalized to keep it going.
