Persian countries used 800 rockets

According to the latest article in the economic journal 'The Economist,' Gulf countries (Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, etc.) used approximately 800 guided surface-to-air missiles, including Patriot and THAAD systems, within one or two days.

The United States, in contrast, is capable of producing around 800 such missiles over the course of an entire calendar year. According to 'The Economist' analysts, this demonstrates the sharply increasing defense needs of Gulf countries and their rapid development of military industry.

Poland's stockpiles, sudden contracts, and changes in military programs in Russia and Ukraine affect the global missile technology market, but Gulf states have become particularly noticeable consumers today.

The annual missile output of the United States compared to the urgent demand in the UAE highlights differences in strategic priorities and defense budgeting among Persian Gulf coastal states.

Experts in armed conflict are also discussing the implications of this trend for regional security.
