Iran's drones expose a key US military weakness
Original: Iran's drones hit America's Achilles heel
A new report argues that Iranian-designed drones are highlighting a critical vulnerability in American military defenses, notably the high cost of intercepting cheap unmanned aircraft. The analysis suggests that mass-produced, low-cost drones can overwhelm expensive missile systems, forcing the US and its allies to rethink air defense strategy amid ongoing Middle East tensions.
Why now: Renewed concern that low-cost drone warfare can undermine expensive US air defense systems.
