๐จ๐บ๐ธ๐ฎ๐ท The Iran war has cost $47 billion... with another "little Epic Fury" possibly planned for next month
CENTCOM's new estimate to Congress, obtained by CBS, puts the bill at $47.1 billion through mid-October: $29 billion to replace munitions fired, $6.1 billion for destroyed equipment, $11.9 billion in extra costs like deploying and supporting troops.
Three months ago Hegseth told senators $37.5 billion, so the meter ran almost $10 billion during a stretch the Pentagon calls quiet, faster than the CBO's $2-3 billion a month ceiling, and the Jordan, Kuwait and Saudi barracks that Iranian missiles flattened still aren't in the number.
