Getting back to the US batteries in Iran.....
I'd say Zelensky is chuckling about Donolds rejection of his offer to help combat Iranian drones.
Donold would rather use Patriot missiles. Where is Dept of Govt Efficiency when you need it?
A single Patriot (PAC-3 MSE) interceptor missile costs approximately $4 million. A full Patriot battery—including launchers, radar, and control station—costs over $1 billion, with individual missiles for export sometimes costing between $6 million and $10 million."
$4,000,000.00 to zap a $35,000 drone.
Gives a whole new meaning to "war of attrition".
Presently USA is bleeding $1 billion a day on their "excursion" to Iran.
