Western intelligence assessments indicate that Iran can produce approximately 50 ballistic missiles per month, according to a Bloomberg report. This current production capacity is estimated to be half of what it was before the recent conflict involving Iran, Israel, and the United States. These estimates appear to contradict statements made by U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth. Hegseth asserted that the United States had destroyed 80% of Iran's nuclear industrial bases, as well as its defense industry and air and naval force bases.
