“… Ukrainian officials said on Tuesday that they successfully intercepted all six hypersonic missiles fired by the Russians, but the Ukrainian military declined to comment on the Russians’ claim that a Patriot system was hit. “We cannot comment on this. We’ll stay out of commenting on Russian sources,” said the Ukrainian Air Force spokesman, Yurii Ihnat…”

I have no idea if any of this is true. I tend to put no faith on “news” from either side. The only thing I KNOW from the video was that I saw anti-ballistic missile after missile being fired off and each one being launched cost the AMERICAN TAXPAYERS yet another $3 million.

It's called field testing!

I'm sure that they collected tons of valuable information, showing how the defense system works in actual practice against actual Russian missiles - something that's a little, ahem, difficult to simulate on American soil.

Bravo! An excellent expenditure of funds!

The best way to save money on military hardware is to not use it. Better still and even more money saved by not making it at all.

Yes let all those other guys waste perfectly good money that could go to feed the homeless, supply needles, free drugs, and massive amounts of free stuff for illegal aliens.

We, here in the US, renounce all military type thingies and pledge all available tax payer money to fighting climate change and handing out free stuff to the disadvantaged citizen or non-citizen alike; we do not discriminate; we practice DIE for your benefit. Come one come all, you want it, we got it FREE!!!.

No military, no police our pledge to you! Any store: take up to $1,000 worth of merchandise per store on us!
