Lockheed Martin JASSM-ER Stockpiles Plunge, Driven by U.S. Campaign Against Iran

The U.S. military campaign against Iran has consumed nearly half of the American JASSM-ER inventory.

The Japan Times reports the conflict utilized over 1,000 of the approximately 2,300 missiles in the pre-war stockpile. The U.S. is pulling these advanced Lockheed Martin assets from other strategic regions, including the Pacific.

Lockheed Martin currently schedules a production rate of 396 units for 2026. This rapid depletion pressures the company to accelerate manufacturing. The drawdown likely signals significant future orders to replenish U.S. inventories.
