Foreword:

The United States has suffered an unprecedented failure, and Yellen also spoke out, saying that the U.S. had inflicted self-inflicted harm. This time, the U.S. suffered a devastating defeat, and the most fundamental reason is that the U.S. no longer has the strength to support its hegemony but still insists on using the hegemonic way to plunder the wealth of the world. The U.S. military is still trying to display its presence around the world, but the military's strength can no longer sustain American hegemony. The U.S. military encountered setbacks in the Ukraine conflict battlefield and陷入了困境 in the Middle East as well, failing to gain any advantage in other directions.

Russian S400 air defense missiles achieved their first kill in actual combat by shooting down a U.S.-made F16 fighter jet, dealing a fatal blow to the myth of U.S. equipment. According to "The Independent of Kiev," the Ukrainian Air Force reported that at 11:20 local time on April 12, a Ukrainian F16 fighter jet was intercepted by Russian air defense missiles while carrying out a mission in the Sumy region and was shot down. It is reported that the 26-year-old Ukrainian Air Force pilot, Pavlo Ivanov, died with the plane crash.

It is reported that it was the Russian S400 air defense missile that shot down the F16 fighter jet. Details are as follows: the F16 fighter jet took off at 11:20 and was shot down at 11:35. During the operation, Russia launched three S400 air defense missiles, one of which hit the Ukrainian aircraft. Zelensky also acknowledged this tragedy and mourned the death of the pilot. In this way, the Russian S400 completed its first kill against the U.S.-made fighter jet, making Ukraine reluctant to use this aircraft easily in the future.

The F16 is a relatively mature and stable U.S.-made fighter jet that has been sold to dozens of countries and regions around the world. In the face of the hopelessness of introducing the U.S. F35, many countries and regions are still striving to introduce the F16 fighter jet. This time, the F16 was directly blown up by Russian missiles, clearly a heavy blow to the myth of U.S. equipment. The potential target customers who want to introduce this fighter jet in the next step will obviously have to think carefully about whether they should continue to introduce this fighter jet. For the U.S., this is obviously not good news.

The Houthis' missile attacks on U.S. aircraft carriers and the downing of U.S. drones have played a significant role in the U.S. Middle East strategy. In the face of numerous high-end equipment attacks from U.S. B2 strategic bombers, aircraft carriers, Reaper drones, etc., the spirit shown by the Houthis is absolute refusal to surrender. The Houthis refuse to surrender and continuously attack U.S. forces with various weapons such as cruise missiles, ballistic missiles, drones, small fast boats, etc.

The Houthi attacks are difficult to inflict fatal damage on the U.S. military, but they successfully bog down the U.S. military, leaving it unable to extricate itself. In a month, the Houthis launched at least 16 attacks targeting U.S. forces, leaving the U.S. military struggling to cope. The U.S. decapitation operations also caused losses to the Houthis, but these losses did not make the Houthis submit. The main focus of the U.S. military is being held back by the Houthis, which leads to a lack of attention elsewhere. It can be said that the Houthis have made great contributions, creating favorable conditions for Iran's strategy.

Iranian ships loaded with ammunition broke through the U.S. and Israeli blockade line and delivered a large amount of ammunition to Hezbollah, achieving a major strike against the U.S. and Israeli strategy. It is reported that Iranian arms ships passed through the Suez Canal, entered the Mediterranean Sea, and successfully reached Lebanon under the cover of darkness, delivering a large amount of weapons and ammunition to the Lebanese Hezbollah. When the U.S. realized the situation was not good, it was already too late. It can be said that the U.S. currently shows signs of fatigue on all fronts, and its ability to control the situation has completely deteriorated.
