The United States is estimated to be spending up to $1 billion (€865 million) a day on its war efforts against Iran.

Analysts note that while Iran can deploy a drone for about $20,000 (€17,296), the US often responds with missiles costing between $1.3 million and $4 million (€1.1 million and €3.5 million) each — and frequently fires more than one per interception.
