When the US military and its Middle Eastern partners conduct air defense and missile interception operations, they are always launching interceptors desperately, without following the tactical principle of using two interceptors to intercept one missile. This is also one of the important reasons for the rapid consumption of interceptors.
This actually reflects a significant difference in thinking between frontline personnel and higher-level commanders. Frontline personnel only think about how to shoot down the target; the amount of ammunition consumed is not their main concern—it's the logistics department's responsibility. However, senior commanders need to consider the overall situation, so they pay great attention to logistics. They feel very painful about the frontline troops' approach of firing like firecrackers.
From the animation, it can be seen that the Kuwaiti air defense forces launched so many interceptors, but didn't stop anything, and millions of dollars were just wasted.
This kind of money-wasting approach is difficult for anyone to sustain over a long period of time.
