Analysis of military sustainability in the ongoing Iran-Israel missile conflict

Recent escalations between Iran and Israel have involved significant exchanges of ballistic missiles and attack drones across the Middle East. Analysts are now debating the endurance of these nations regarding their weapon stockpiles and military logistics. Donald Trump suggested on Sunday that the U.S. could sustain an offensive against Iran for four to five weeks if necessary, asserting that such efforts would not be difficult. Conversely, several experts argue that U.S. weapon inventories are already strained due to ongoing commitments in Ukraine. Iran has prepared for such conflicts since the 1980s, theoretically maintaining a large arsenal. However, Tehran faces significant challenges in keeping its military technology competitive and up-to-date. The conflict continues to test the sustainability of defense resources for all parties involved, leading to questions about who might exhaust their supplies first.
