>The financial asymmetry is stark: a $20,000 Iranian Shahed drone is countered by a $4 million Patriot missile, raising concerns about long-term sustainability
@Xenophon @BarelyEagle @Terry They were at 400 shaheds per day production level before the the demon nation attacked.. would imagine that went into high gear..
@HonkHonkBoom @Xenophon @BarelyEagle where are you getting this info about Iran producing 400 Shaheds a day?
>Iran is alleged to produce up to 400 Shahed-class drones per day, according to Israeli estimates cited in reporting from February 2026. This production rate, if accurate, would allow Iran to manufacture over 146,000 drones annually, enabling rapid replenishment and expansion of its drone arsenal even during active conflict.
@Xenophon @BarelyEagle @HonkHonkBoom ok yeah we're fucked.
Theyd be better off using ww2 flak cannons than 4mil missiles which will hit a production logjam long before cost becomes unsustainable
@Xenophon @Terry @BarelyEagle @HonkHonkBoom Iran is unconquarable. There's no way USA can beat them in a ground war.
