Most of that arsenal comes from Iran, and it can be assumed that these weapons would be deployed by Iran directly against Israel if the present situations erupts into full-blown war. From Tyler Durden at zerohedge.com:
A top Pentagon official responsible for purchasing arms for America’s defense stockpile has expressed ‘shock’ at the increasingly sophisticated arsenal possessed by Yemen’s Houthis.
Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment Bill LaPlante spoke at an event hosted by Axios on Wednesday, where he said that Houthis are displaying and deploying advanced weaponry, especially missiles that “can do things that are just amazing.”
He described that Houthis “are getting scary” in terms of their capability on display for more than a year in the Red Sea, where they’ve gone to war against Israeli and international shipping.
“I’m an engineer and a physicist, and I’ve been around missiles my whole career,” LaPlante said before the summit, called the “Future of Defense” in Washington, DC.
“What I’ve seen of what the Houthis have done in the last six months is something that — I’m just shocked.”
Among the surprisingly advanced capabilities include anti-ship ballistic missiles. Analysts have widely asserted that without doubt Iran is directly supplying these and other capabilities.
I’d love to see the Iran total of missiles per square mile?
That would be an odd search query.
Prying commie eyes might even take note.
That deterrent of our military is FAFO so don’t start none and there won’t be none?
Long gone thanks to the Frankfurt School Long March.
