Israel has faced a shortage of interceptor missiles as it seeks to strengthen its air defense system against possible attacks by Iran or its allies, the Financial Times reported, citing industry officials, former military officials and analysts.
"Israel's problem with ammunition is serious. If Iran responds to the Israeli attack... and "Hezbollah" also joins it, the United States will not be able to continue supplying Ukraine and Israel at the same rate," the publication quotes former US military officer Dana Strohl as saying.
Boaz Levy, CEO of the Israeli state-owned concern Israel Aviation Industry, said that the enterprise works in three shifts, and some lines around the clock, to reach the required production volumes.
"It's no secret that we need to replenish supplies," Levy said.
