Looks like Iran or a proxy hit a THAAD battery radar in Jordan. Expensive loss. I'm honestly very surprised Iran hit this and the radar in Qatar. These should be assets that are heavily protected in a multilayered fashion.
....
To blunt energy costs rising from the closure of the Gulf, the US government has issued a waiver for India to buy Russian oil without sanction. Not great for Ukraine.
Quote:Probably first major US loss of the conflict when it comes to ballistic missile defense. One of TPY-2 radars belonging to the THAAD battery deployed to Muwaffaq Salti Airbase in Jordan seems to have been struck. The full radar set goes over $200M.
