I hope the Navy has a plan to conserve its magazines of $1-2 million-dollar interceptor missiles (such as Standard, RAM & ESSM) against cheap Houhti missiles and drones.

This situation seems tailor-made for DEW, if only they had it operational on every combat ship.

And Jimmy Carter placed the creeps into power in Iran. On the global stage, Jimmy Carter was the Village idiot.

Destroying incoming missiles and drones is good, but better to also target and destroy the launch sites. Our satellites should give them exact coordinates. Since this is standard operating procedures in war, why aren’t we doing so???

Because eventually we’d be nuked from space.

This entire defensive position with no offensive position is a loser.

Instead of shooting down missiles, how about shooting where they are being launched? What am I missing?

Shooting who is causing them to be launched and extracting a price sufficient to deter further acts.

“Since this is standard operating procedures in war, why aren’t we doing so???”

That’s what they’re trying so hard to get us to do. Think it through — where do their weapons and training come from and whose objectives would be accomplished if we directly engaged that entity?

If an Iranian oil installation was wiped out for each drone or missile launched they would end pretty quick but President Retard is too stupid

Because we have a lying, corrupt, C student with dementia as President
