US used half its missile interceptors defending Israel: Washington Post The US used a large portion of its advanced missile defence stockpile while defending Israel during the war with Iran, according to defence assessments cited by The Washington Post. US forces reportedly fired more than 200 THAAD interceptors against Iranian ballistic missiles, amounting to roughly half of the Pentagon’s total inventory. The report said Israel used far fewer of its own missile defence systems during the conflict.
