This is stated<\/a> in a Pentagon statement.<\/p>\n

The agreements provide for multi-year cooperation to expand production capacity and accelerate the supply of components for THAAD and PAC-3 MSE interceptor missiles.<\/p>\n

In particular, production capacity for PAC-3 MSE interceptors is planned to be tripled, and for THAAD, it is planned to be quadrupled.<\/p>\n

The agreements will also increase the production of individual missile components, including engine cases, homing heads, middle sections, and fairing deployment systems.<\/p>\n

The Pentagon said the new agreements should reduce bureaucratic procedures and accelerate the expansion of American production capabilities in the field of air and missile defense.<\/p>\n

At the same time, financing of the agreements will depend on annual budget allocations. Guaranteed minimum purchase volumes should ensure stable demand for producers in the long term.<\/p>\n

It was previously reported that after a five-month war with Iran, the US faced a significant depletion of its stockpiles of high-tech munitions.<\/a> The US military is estimated to have used up nearly 80% of its THAAD interceptor missiles, as well as about half of its stockpiles of Patriot and Tomahawk missiles.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
