The President of the United States says the country has "more ammunition than we can even imagine using," and according to him, "we are currently increasing our ammunition stockpiles at levels we have never seen before."

Donald Trump, on Tuesday, September 31, wrote in a message on the social media platform Truth Social, rejecting claims of ammunition shortages in the U.S. military, that those he called "cowards and traitors" like to say that the United States is facing a shortage of ammunition. This is not true.

The President's statement may be a reaction to various media reports about ammunition shortages in the U.S. military, especially following the recent conflict with Iran. These reports particularly mentioned a decrease in the stockpiles of interceptor missiles for air defense systems.

This comes as Lockheed Martin announced on September 24 that it had received the first shipment of critical components for "Patriot" interceptor missiles from General Motors; this delivery occurs less than a month after the signing of a production agreement between the two companies, at a time when the Pentagon emphasizes accelerating the weapons production process.
