US uses new missiles and aircraft carrier in conflict with Iran

The United States has used its new Precision Strike Missiles for the first time in combat during its conflict with Iran. The military also launched fighter jets from the USS Gerald R. Ford aircraft carrier and fired HIMARS rockets as part of the offensive.

Reports indicate the US is facing missile shortages as the conflict continues, testing the limits of its weapons inventory. The situation has drawn attention to the high cost and limited supply of some of the advanced weapons being used.
