Iran’s missile arsenal halved, but could be rebuilt quickly, analysts say

Iran started the war with around 2,500 ballistic missiles that could be fired either from the back of trucks or from underground silos, an Israeli thinktank announced, Sky News reports.

The Alma Research Centre estimates in a new report that Iran now has around 1,000 missiles.

At the end of the 12-day war in June last year, Alma reported that Iran was left with around 1,500 missiles.

In the eight months that followed, it was able to manufacture a further 1,000, which suggests

Tehran could move to quickly replenish stocks.
