American CBS reported that the U.S. Air Force has already lost three MQ-9 "Reaper" multi-role drones in the operation against Iran.
The U.S. Air Force mainly uses MQ-9 for reconnaissance and surveillance of Iran, as well as attacking ground targets in Iran.
If Iran continues to shoot down MQ-9s, it can greatly reduce its losses of missile launchers and other mobile equipment. This also indicates that Iran still has air defense capabilities, making the U.S. and Israeli air forces cautious when conducting air strikes on Iran.
Each MQ-9 is worth $30 million, so the total value of three is $90 million.
