‼️ Telling Fact

Two US destroyers in the eastern Mediterranean launched TWELVE SM-3 ballistic missile interceptors today in a futile bid to stem the tide of a huge Iranian ballistic missile salvo.

You know how many SM-3 missiles the US produces each year?

TWELVE.

Additionally for interest I looked up the cost:
About $12 million a pop apparently. So... $144 million blown in a matter of minutes and no evidence that they actually even hit anything and with repeat performances of the rare boutique beauty for what they are worth ($144 million...!) unlikely.
