A lot of THAAD interceptors that could've been used for America's Golden Dome, but f- Americans, right?

Yep. I mean now it just ensures BAE/Ratheon/L3 get a large purchase order for more weapon systems.... Self licking Ice cream cone
Agreed 100x.
Ideally we could find a reason to extricate our troops from the region all together, but apparently Israel and Saudi Arabian need us there to enforce their suppression of Irans proxies more than we need to focus on our own safety .... But I digress ...
These things are so expensive, it seems like it would be cheaper to let the missiles through than to try to stop them with THAADs.
I feel it would be way cheaper to let them get through and hit Israel because I couldn't give two *blanks* about Israel reaping what they've sewed.
I'd rather see a volley of them fired off at a remote controlled 737 for funsies than waste one (((gifted))) to Israel.
Cheaper yes.
But remember for every 1 person actually killed the Israeli government is gonna demand like 6 million scalps on the other side.
Both THAAD and Patriot should be retired and replaced by the SM-6 family of interceptors. Since these can be launched from ground, sea and air platforms, adopting them as the primary interceptor for all branches and ordering in bulk would streamline their production and lower per unit costs.
