华盛顿—— 国防部长皮特·赫格斯周日驳斥了美国正面临弹药库存危机的说法，尽管他今年早些时候曾作证称，补充库存可能需要“数月乃至数年”。
“这是媒体想要兜售的人为编造的故事，实际上我们的库存状况良好，而且只会越来越好，”赫格斯在《与玛格丽特·布伦南会面》节目中说道。
在与伊朗的战争停火数周后，赫格斯在参议院军事委员会就五角大楼1.5万亿美元的预算申请作证。在4月30日的听证会上，赫格斯估计，由于伊朗战争已持续数月，补充库存可能需要“数月乃至数年”。他称这一时间线“紧张”，并指出具体速度将取决于武器系统。
赫格斯当时表示，“我们正在实时新建工厂”，这意味着生产速度将会提升，同时他还提及拜登政府遗留的弹药耗尽问题。
周日被玛格丽特·布伦南问及此前的言论时，赫格斯表示“我当时推测某些弹药需要更长的时间”。
他补充道：“我们手头还有很多。”
美国国防部尚未披露伊朗战争迄今已使用的弹药数量。
在4月洛克希德·马丁公司的财报电话会议上，这家国防承包商表示，将需要3到4年时间将爱国者导弹的年产量从当前的650枚提升至2000枚。
“我们的生产规模正处于历史最高水平，”赫格斯说，“拜登政府向乌克兰援助了数千亿美元，因此特朗普总统不得不补充库存，而他已经做到了，我们也正在实时完成这项工作。”
赫格斯发表上述言论之前，布伦南问及了乌克兰总统弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基关于生产爱国者导弹的请求。
“没有哪个国家能比美利坚合众国生产出更优质、更多的弹药，我们愿意在力所能及的范围内开展联合生产，”赫格斯说，“本届政府正推动我们的自由武器库升级——增产提速，入驻五角大楼，打破五角大楼的官僚主义壁垒，迫使工业界加快步伐。”
“我们的库存状况良好，未来只会越来越好，”他补充道。
地区官员3月告诉哥伦比亚广播公司新闻，海湾阿拉伯国家用于拦截伊朗发射导弹的拦截弹库存告急。当时参谋长联席会议主席丹·凯恩驳斥了这一评估，称有足够的“精准弹药”完成当前任务，无论是进攻还是防御。
赫格斯4月的证词是回应亚利桑那州民主党参议员马克·凯利的提问。凯利周日也登上了《与玛格丽特·布伦南会面》节目，援引了赫格斯的证词，称“我们当然存在弹药问题”。
“我认为大家都清楚，当你用巡航导弹、弹道导弹和航空炸弹打击超过1万个地面目标时，会消耗大量弹药，而我们的供应并非无穷无尽，”凯利说，“因此现在我们必须格外谨慎。”
Pete Hegseth says it’s a “manufactured story” that U.S. faces munitions stockpile shortage

Washington — Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Sunday refuted the idea that the U.S. is facing a crisis with its munitions stockpile, despite testifying earlier this year that replenishing the stockpile could take “months and years.”
“That is a manufactured story that the media wants to peddle and ultimately our stockpiles are great, and they’re only getting stronger,” Hegseth said on “Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan.”
Weeks after the ceasefire began in the war with Iran, Hegseth testified before the Senate Armed Services Committee on the Pentagon’s $1.5 trillion budget request. During the April 30 hearing, Hegseth estimated that it could take “months and years” to replenish the stockpile as the Iran war had stretched on for months. Hegseth called the timeline “fast,” and he noted that the speed will depend on the weapon system.
Hegseth said at the time that “we’re building new plants in real time,” suggesting that production speed would increase, while citing depleted munitions levels left over from the Biden administration.
Pressed by Margaret Brennan on Sunday about his previous comments, Hegseth said “I speculated some munitions take more time than others.”
He added, “we’ve got lots of them.”
The Defense Department has not disclosed how many munitions have been used so far in the Iran war.
During an April Lockheed Martin earnings call, the defense contractor said it would take three to four years to scale up Patriot missile production from the current level of 650 per year to 2,000 per year.
“We’re building more than ever before,” Hegseth said. “The Biden administration gave away hundreds of billions to Ukraine, and so President Trump had to refill, and he has, and we have, in real time.”
Hegseth’s comments came after he was asked by Brennan about Ukrainian President Volodymy Zelenskyy’s request to produce Patriot missiles.
“Nobody makes better and more munitions than the United States of America, and we are open to co-production wherever we can,” Hegseth said. “And because of this administration, we’re supercharging our arsenal of freedom — building more, building faster, opening up the Pentagon, ripping through the Pentagon bureaucracy, to force industry to move faster.”
“Our stockpiles are strong and will only get stronger in the future,” he added.
Regional officials told CBS News in March that Arab states in the Gulf are running low on interceptors to take down Iranian-fired missiles. Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Dan Caine pushed back on that assessment at the time, saying that there were sufficient “precision munitions for the task at hand, both on the offense and defense.”
Hegseth’s testimony in April came in response to questioning by Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly of Arizona. Kelly also appeared on “Face the Nation” on Sunday and cited the testimony, saying “of course we have a munitions issue.”
“I think it’s widely understood that when you attack over 10,000 targets from the air with cruise missiles and ballistic missiles and bombs from airplanes, you are using a lot of munitions, and we do not have an endless supply of these things,” Kelly said. “So now we’re in a posture where we’ve got to be incredibly careful.”
