The Trump administration plans to meet executives from the biggest US defense companies at the White House as soon as next week to discuss boosting production after US strikes on Iran and other recent military operations reduced supplies, multiple media outlets reported late Wednesday.

The leaders of about seven defense contractors are expected to be pressed by President Donald Trump to find ways to quickly increase output of weaponry for the Pentagon, NBC reported, citing two people familiar with the meeting's details.

A March meeting included the CEOs and other top officials from Lockheed Martin ( LMT ) , Northrop Grumman ( NOC ) , RTX (RTX), Boeing ( BA ) , L3Harris Technologies ( LHX ) , BAE Systems, and Honeywell International's ( HON ) aerospace unit, Reuters reported.

"The United States Military has more than enough munitions, ammo, and stockpiles to serve all of President Trump's strategic goals and beyond, and Operation Epic Fury has exposed what happens when you mess with the United States," said Anna Kelly, a White House spokesperson, when contacted by MT Newswires.

"Even still, the President has urged our defense contractors to constantly produce more made-in-America weapons, which are the best in the world. Democrats destroyed our military, but President Trump rebuilt it."

Kelly added that no such meeting with defense contractors is scheduled at this time.
