[BREAKING]US Loses 24 Reapers in Iran Conflict Worth $720M
>>532823694$720M israeli aid package was just signed moments ago for the third time this week.
>>532823694Oh no not the outdated junk that was paid for a decade ago! How could they!? Have they no manners!?
>>532823857got what i voted for praise Allah
>>532823938Yeah I'm sure CBP wouldn't have any need whatsoever for a high endurance surveillance platform or anything, "America First" amirite
>>532823694I never understood why these drones weren't built with stealth tech, we are talking sloped metal sheeting for God's sake...Because our military is full of beamers and niggers and those who graduate college are no better off.
It's okay just print more dorras and Nothing burger
>>532823694>ammo costs money>ahahaha you wasted so much money on us we wonBRICS is a state of mind.
>>532823694lol that's the WHOLE fucking point of using a drone... no one cares, no one died flying that thing. On the other hand they've probably single-handedly destroyed Iran's capabilities
>>532823694Oh no! Not my unmanned drones!
>>532825191millions are dying because we spend money on drones instead of healthcare
>>532823694In this thread: Luddites crying about ancient technology.
>>532825349They're all brown nobody cares
>>532825349name 1
>>532825349Your health is your own concern not the govermnent. Keeping the country safe is the concern of government."But I'm paying the taxes" yeah, those taxes keep invaders out of you country when republicans are at it.
Raytheon reps furiously masturbating
>>532823694BILLION$$$ MUST DIE
I could retitle this thread "russia loses xxx worth yyy" and the cope would read exactly the same. Good job maga.
>>532823694Pff, the US government has loads of Rapers, this didn't even put a dent in the Raper supply.
>>532823694>$720Moh nooooo.but what about the >$1.7 trillionworth of damage that iran has eschewed?why do i never hear about how much this is costing the sand niggers?
>>532825349>healthcarefix fraud first before throwing another 720M at it
>>532824632They were built for COIN, less F-35 Lightning and more OV-10 Bronco They didn't exactly expect the Taliban or al-Qaeda to be operating radar guided anti-air so it wasn't worth compromising to try to stealthify a missile truck with a lawnmower engine
>>532823694What are they shooting them down with?I saw some youtubers saying they are using chinese and russian anti air systems that dont give out radar signatures
>>532825876they don't have dollars in iran you fucking idiot
>>532825169Where the fuck are you getting BRICS from you douche?
>>532823694That's like 72 cents to be honest.
>>532824632>Wing hardpoints= Can carry more munitions but less stealth>Internal weapons bay= Can carry fewer munitions but more stealthIt's not that complicated
>>532823694Our defense budget is over a trillion dollars
>>532825956good point, mohammad.it's not like we have knowledge of the currency exchange rates or anything.
>>532825555>Keeping the country safeWhat do israeli regional interests have to do with americas safety?All you would need to keep america safe would be a few militias within the border towns, as it is almost impossible to attack due to its geographic position and immense size.
>>532824632Because they are cheap and disposable
>>532825981Because Iran lost it's entire airforce, navy and leadership and had a lot of it's infrastructure destroyed but somehow they're declaring victory for not being regime changed after 40 days.
>>532825349The preservation of life is not the highest good
>>532826258How is that a response to the question I asked?
>>532825568>not owning Raytheon stock despite KNOWING how the grift works.KWABIts like you hate money
>>532826223>$720,000,000>cheap
>>532826323Because OP's title and pic is insinuating that the US lost the war because they lost a few drones. It's a pervasive mentality on this board that every US equipment loss is catastrophic while Iran's losses are a given and irrelevant.
>>532826218Its impossible to attack because we have a fuck-huge airforce and navy that would wreck anyone attempting to cross the oceans in an invasion fleet.The mountains and shit are an added bonus.
>>532823694Small price to pay to win losing control of the strait
>>532825934Really fucking big catapults
>>532826258>get attacked>successfully repel attackers>this means you lostVs>attack someone unprovoked>declare literally dozens of objectives>achieve none>situation worse than before it started>refuse to elaborate>leaveSounds like it sucked for both sides, but one definitely looks more like a win.
>>532826582BRICS.I'm asking for clarification on the "BRICS state of mind" comment. You're such a fucking hassle and time waster. Don't respond, faggot.
>>532826582The US lost the war because they didn't achieve what they wanted and Iran won because they are in a better position than when the war started.>muh damage>muh KDRDid germany win ww2?
>>532823694those beauties were flying free over tehran and just dropping bombs at will for a month
>>532823694Don't forget Goy - April 15th is Slave Payment Day.
>>532826600No one attacked you even when you were an irrelevant shithole.>anyone attempting to cross the oceans in an invasion fleet.Thats not how this works. You can't just send an "invasion fleet", you would need logistics spanning basically the entire Pacific or Atlantic to make the invasion force work, which is next to impossible.
>>532826718Look at the flag, you're replying to a jeet.
>>532826718I just explained it to you in clear English, dipshit. The "BRICS mentality" is "haha the west lost a plane! nevermind the fact that Irans entire airforce and navy are destroyed and thousands of IRGC soldiers are dead". Either learn to read or get the fuck off English speakers internet forums
>>532826908Did you guys put down your narco civil war yet? It's almost world cup time and your country being on fire is a bad look
>>532825349Millions more must die for Israel goy. Don't you want to go to goy heaven and serve the Jews eternally?
>>532823694What's important is that trannies can no longer use the women's bathroom.
Drones are inherently expendable.
>>532823694My god. We could've spent that money on like 1,000 niggers instead.
>>532823694720 million isn't a lot
>>532826841>You can't just send an "invasion fleet", you would need logistics spanning basically the entire Pacific or Atlantic to make the invasion force work, which is next to impossible.The US demonstrates multiple world-spanning naval logistics fleets daily. MEU are floating invasion forces that constantly circle the globe.
>>532825495Me, ackkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
>>532823694The real crime is the price tag on those things
amerimutts also lost dozens on the ground
>>532826739By your standards then desert storm was a failure?
>>532823694So about 2 dollars per American?
>>532827548The US achieved its wargoals in desert storm.What war goals did it achieve in this Iran chimpout?
Those things can be taken out by an eagle.
>>53282750730 million is the system cost including the ground station and satellite comms, as well as armament. Flyaway is closer to half that. So the number is overinflated (((for some reason))).It's not too unreasonable though. The optical system on the chin of that thing is a work of art. Probably 2-3 million just for that.
>>532823938Yes, I'm sure they'll be cheaper now that you have to replace them.
>>532827640The four major objectives were to effect the immediate, complete, and unconditional withdrawal of all Iraqi forces from Kuwait, restore Kuwait's legitimate government, protect the lives of American citizens abroad, and promote the security and stability of the Persian Gulf.The U.S. war goals in Iran, as stated by the Trump administration, included eliminating Iran’s nuclear program, destroying its ballistic missile and drone capabilities, dismantling its navy, ending its support for regional terrorist proxies, and achieving regime change.3 out of 4 aint bad.
>>532823694quick, transfer 8 billion dollars to Lockheed and slash all social services!
>>532823694I can literally build one of these in my shop for $45-$55k. It's incredible how much these kike contractors are ripping off the country.
>>532825981How often do you see price tags mentioned in reports about the gear destroyed during warfare? In the exact moment when BRICStards are going overdrive with their claims about Iran somehow getting the upper hand over the US.Clash Report has its policy what should be posted when and it takes a side in the conflict, just like the media it quotes. It's a shitty mud brown side.
>>532827507a couple million for a fixed wing jet with targeting pod is a steal
>>532828341They always cite the total system costs with operational support factored in. Never flyaway costs, or the cost of the orginal system/airframe. Mostly because the numbers are public.How much do you think it would cost to replace everything Iran lost or expended?
>>532825876>why do i never hear about how much this is costing the sand niggers?Because they're now about to make 10% of their GDP in pure revenue from the new Hormuzzy toll Drumpf just granted them
A reaper drone just flew over my house!
>>532823694>24 older drones lost>awarded contract for 50 newer dronesIt would actually be a problem if they didn't lose any MQ-9s, as it would be hard to justify the new purchase orders if the old ones worked too well.America is opposite of their enemies. They actually get stronger and wealthier for each of their own aircraft shot down. This is because of their complicated relationship with the military industrial complex.
>>532826973How the fuck are you claiming that this is a BRICS thought process? What does that even mean? It's a random intergovernmental org and you're tying it to a south korean poster quoting clash report quoting CBS on drones being taken out in a conflict between Iran and the US?
>>532828669It's not too complicated. The skunk tells you to do a thing, you do the thing.
>>532828625>new Hormuzzy toll Drumpf just granted themthat didn't happen though. they're still negotiating.and trump doesn't want iran to tax anything.we'll see how they respond.
>>532828087The US achieved exactly 0 of its wargoals in Iran
>>532828566>How much do you think it would cost to replace everything Iran lost or expended?I'm sure we are going to read a lot about it as soon as Iran switches from "we are winning" to "we are poor innocent victims".
>>532828972Navussy status?
>>532828972>wargoalsthe war isn't over yet.guess what we're negotiating on, lil bro?the wargoals.
>>532823694> if you lose your aircraft you winBold strategy, air supremacy sisters.
It's not a war if there's not even ground fighting. The US and China could launch everything they have at each other and it still wouldn't be a war because even faggots can launch missiles and we all know faggots can't fight wars.
>>532829069Why would Iran give up anything? They won. Trump has no cards. They could just close the strait and Trump would be autistically screeching on Twitter again.>muh bridges and electricityThey don't care. Strait status?
>>532823694eh, I fucking doubt this.
>>532828809>we'll see how they respond.I'm guessing by keeping it closed and just collecting the toll anyways, fucks donnie gon do
>>532829074>gobnik loosing to 3$ temu drones joins the conversation
>>532828783>West suffers a loss>Anti-westoids (aka BRIC's niggers): "AHAHAHA NATO/The West/ USA lost!"Is this your first day on the internet or are you just pretending to be a fucking retard?
>>532827176It is compared to the cost of what Iran usedIt means the war will bankrupt you
>>532829193yeah. that's why they immediately agreed to a ceasefire when trump threatened them with annihilation.because>fucks donnie gon do
>>532829211Jeet
>>532829297>what Iran usedbut what about what Iran lost?that costs money too, lil bro.
>>532825956The smartest nafri chimes in
>>532829074we didn't want those drones anyway
>>532829043That's the thing about thirdies, they always do both simultaneously.
>>532829074Does russia even have an airforce?
>>532826187The Iranian rial cannot be exchanged for dollars, thanks to the infinite wisdom of American sanctions.
>>532825956Oh, so that means everything we destroyed was free?
>>532826579The US defense budget is one trillion PER YEAR, and Trump is pushing to raise it to 1.5 trillion. The Reapers are good piece of kit, but they're outdated now that suicide drones and saturation tactics are what's in vogue. You could buy roughly 20,000 LUCAS drones for 720 million.
>>532830085>the US defense budget could pay for top quality healthcare for every citizen if the government and the healthcare system weren't entirely occupied by scamming fuckers who all deserve to be burned alive in a Tesla-branded coffin
>>532823694IRAN will pay for it in free oil and rare earth !
>>532823938damn that was so fast cope
>>532830020it can though.
>>532830085>retard migger doesn't know the difference between sums of money and actual production outputyou wanna know how many tomahawks you're getting from the factory this year vs how many you expended in the last 4 weeks?
>>532826579YesPoorfag
>>532829649> rent free I should collect eventually.
>>532826841Yeah, most wargames envision scenarios where Canada or Mexico get invaded first and function as logistics hubs.This is also why both of those countries basically ignore their own militaries because they know that we would defend them if invaded just out of self-preservation.Neither one really fears invasion from us either because Canada is already effectively a non-voting territory and annexing Mexico would be a humanitarian disaster we have no interest in.We already invaded them 200 years ago and took the parts we wanted.
>>532824554not that it was ever their intent, nor did anyone ever forsee this level of epsteinmaxxing, but everyone present on j6 should be retroactively jailed with those who were pardoned to be unpardoned kektraitors sold out to israel
>>532826223>MIC>cheapGet out of here nigger
>>532830085Most of the defense budget is simply gibs, like UBI but only for Israels biggest goyim
>>532825191>probably single-handedly destroyed Iran's capabilitieswho keeps shooting down the drones then?
Lost or…?
>>532830239We would never pay for your bullshit healthcare even if we could afford it because you dont deserve it.Fuck you.
>>532829211Anti-west isn't synonymous with BRICS, retard. Again of what relevance is BRICS? Connect the mockery of US losses to being necessarily BRICS
>>532825934HahahaYou guys have been really good at shooting shit down over the years. Did you send Iran some cool toys?Scott Francis O'Grady (born October 12, 1965) is a former United States Air Force (USAF) fighter pilot. On June 2, 1995, he was shot down over Bosnia and Herzegovina by a 2K12 Kub (NATO designation SA-6 "Gainful") mobile surface-to-air missile (SAM) and forced to eject from his F-16C into hostile territory.On 27 March 1999, during the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia amid the Kosovo War, a Yugoslav Army unit shot down a Lockheed F-117 Nighthawk stealth ground attack aircraft of the United States Air Force by firing a S-125 Neva/Pechora surface-to-air missile. It was the first ever shootdown of a stealth aircraft.
>>532826707You consider losing the iranian navy and air for ce and most ballistic missile launchers 'successful repulsion"?Also, We haven't achieved our objectives? Hmmm, I wonder how you know that before final negotiations have even started?
>>532823938>Ttthey are outdated anyway. we don't want them anyway
>>532832487kikes are so ugly you even use disgusting picrels, kys
>>532831080I'm going to use this line next time you bring up the straight
>>532829043>>532828341>>532825169I am sure this shit-stain is another UPAinian faggot with polish flag. There is so many this roaches around.
>>532823694forgot we even had those
>>532823694my my. why whine? smos of attrition are the new gdp hype. new predators will be build. this creates jobs. also might kill people who then cannot take these jobs. it's a winwinwinwinwin.
>>532824554why the fuck would i want loitering government surveillance drones flying over US soil
>>532832630They don't want them. Air Force already tried to get rid of them, they are being retired in early 2030s because they are useless now when a country has any air defense.
>>532823694ok
>>532832903Whiter and more Polish than you, oskarek
They are a flying routerEasy target just follow the signalGuess Iran has developed nasty missilesThey need counter measures
I hate America and hope all Americans die.
Kiked
>>532825876That 720 mil was only about drones. US lost lot of valuable gear, thats why they gave up. Not to forget how much they burned with missiles etc. And they still couldnt get control of strait of Hormuz. Lmao.
>>532826258They were counting on it you stupid fucking retard and losing some soldiers doesn't matterThey know their 2000s (on average) air defenses are inferior to 2024 technology that's why they are building nukesJesus these faggots should go to redd*t
>>532823694No wonder Trump begged for a ceasefire.
>>532823938GOOD GOYYou won't mind if we raise your taxes AGAIN ooo I mean tarriffs, to pay for it?
>>532832630>Ttthey are outdated anyway. we don't want them anywaylmao this is like all that garage sale junk nato didnt even want in ukraine that was cheaper to send to Russia and have them obliterate it with a lancet than it was to decomission and scrap
