The concern is the rate at which SM-3 missiles and other ordnances, including the SM-2 and SM-6, are now being fired. The U.S. is now depleting its stockpiles faster than the missiles can be replaced, and that has raised alarms.
Anti-missile systems increase the risk of war, because they allow countries like Israel to pretend their "Iron Dome" confers an immunity to reprisals and therefore be less likely to refrain from actions that would invite them.
