Iran's War Endurance Tested by Missiles, Economy, Hormuz

Iran's ability to sustain its conflict with the US hinges on missile production, economic resilience, and oil revenues, with experts suggesting it can maintain launches despite declining intensity. The war has devastated Iran's economy, with inflation at 62%, over a million jobs lost, and the IMF projecting a 5.4% contraction in 2026. Tehran hopes a prolonged war will pressure Washington, but internal divisions and public anger may not shift policy unless protests erupt.
