"Experts estimate that the ongoing conflict between the US and Iran has already cost Washington up to $31 billion. These expenditures account for the destruction or damage of high-value military hardware such as aircraft carriers, fighter jets, drones, and radar installations, alongside the operational costs of increased troop deployment in the Middle East. The Trump administration is seeking supplemental funding to manage these defense requirements."
