Three U.S. Air Force MQ-9 Reaper drones have been shot down by Houthi militants in Yemen this past week, bringing the number of drones that have been brought down by the Houthis since March 15, when the Trump administration began a sustained air campaign against the militant group, to six, according to a U.S. official.

"The MQ-9 Reaper drone has an average unit cost of around $30 million, with some estimates placing it closer to $33 million"

So $180 million.

Plus another billion in missises we have fired.

Well worth it to support our greatest ally, Israel.

Replacement cost is a lot higher because of inflation since 2019

Pretty obvious they figured out how to hack/jam the signal. They went from taking down zero to half a dozen in the space of a few months.

It also looks that way objetively, just based on the fact that we're targeting ports and not inland targets. We don't seem to have eyes on the interior of Yemen at all.
