The attacks have been able to disrupt shipping and keep the U.S. and its allies tied down, frustrating the Navy’s decades-old mission of keeping open the region’s critical sea lanes.
American military says it has spent about $1 billion fighting Ansar Allah to support Israel’s Gaza War. It has conducted more than 450 strikes and intercepting 200 drones and missiles.
U.S. officials worry that the conflict is simply not sustainable.
“Their supply of weapons from Iran is cheap and highly sustainable, but ours is expensive and our logistics tails are long. We are playing whack-a-mole, and they are playing a long game.”
It’s funny to me that the media will get people to laugh at these weapons and not see that it’s a well thought out tactic. The US is going to double down on expensive equipment before anything changes. They’ll have the most expensive and sophisticated weaponry, but they won’t be able to afford to use it
