A bit more about Trump’s genius: the war with Iran has already cost the US more than $47 billion, - Reuters

That’s 25% more than the Pentagon’s July estimate. And the final bill could be even higher.

Among the main expenses are more than $29 billion to replenish expended munitions and over $6 billion to replace military equipment, including lost aircraft and drones.

And that’s not even counting the restoration of US military bases damaged by Iranian rockets and drones.

Recall, the US and Israel began strikes on Iran in 28 February. Since then the parties have repeatedly declared ceasefires, but fighting has resumed.

There it is, the war that was supposed to demonstrate American strength.

Еще немного о гении Трампа: война с Ираном обошлась США уже более чем в $47 млрд, - Reuters

Это на 25% больше июльской оценки Пентагона. Причём окончательный счёт может оказаться ещё выше.

Среди основных расходов - более $29 млрд на восполнение запасов израсходованных боеприпасов и свыше $6 млрд на замену военной техники, включая потерянные самолёты и беспилотники.

И это ещё без учёта восстановления американских военных баз, повреждённых иранскими ракетами и дронами.

Напомним, США и Израиль начали удары по Ирану 28 февраля. С тех пор стороны неоднократно объявляли перемирия, но боевые действия возобновлялись.

Вот она, война, которая должна была продемонстрировать американскую силу.
