  6. Mark Cancian, a senior adviser at CSIS, said if the #military has fired >800 #Tomahawks against #Iran, “that would be about a quarter of the total inventory & would leave a large gap for a conflict in the Western Pacific.” His think tank assesses that the Navy may have had as few as 3,100 Tomahawks on hand at the start of the #war a month ago.
