The Hormuz Letter

BREAKING: At least 8 US F-15 fighter jets were damaged and an A-10 Thunderbolt severely damaged, losing a wing, in the Iranian ballistic missile strikes on Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan overnight, the first time the US has acknowledged damage to aircraft in more than 3 months, and to fighter jets in more than 5 months, per US officials with direct knowledge speaking to CBS. US forces fired more than 30 Patriot interceptors defending Muwaffaq alone, US officials add. The IRGC said it hit the deployment site for F-35, F-16 and F-15 jets at the base, and the F-15 damage is now confirmed from the US. At roughly $4 million a round, that is $120 million or more in interceptors for one base in one night, and 4 missiles still came in with no interceptors left to fire at them.
