The Pentagon is preparing to cut Donald Trump's proposed $1.5 trillion military budget by $400 billion, reducing it to $1.1 trillion, in response to the depletion of weapon stockpiles from the Iran war, Politico reported. This move could disrupt weapon procurement, delay new military projects, and affect the replacement of critical munitions used in the Iran war. According to Pentagon estimates cited by Politico, the conflict has cost the U.S. military at least $47 billion, with $29 billion spent on ammunition. Growing opposition within Congress to Donald Trump's budget proposal has led to the emergence of these budget cut plans.
