The US used as much as $4 billion worth of munitions in the first 72 hours of its attacks against Iran, including about 400 cruise missiles and 800 air defense interceptors, according to estimates from German defense giant Rheinmetall AG.
The numbers, released in the company’s earnings presentation on Wednesday, were drawn from “publicly available sources and in-house assumptions,” the slides said. Other reports have put the munitions cost for the first two days of the conflict higher, at as much as $5.6 billion.
