[Think Tank Estimates U.S. Spent Approximately $3.7 Billion in the First Four Days of Actions Against Iran]
According to a report by Golden Finance citing ABC News, the U.S. Department of Defense has declined to disclose the specific costs of the 'Epic Wrath' operation. However, the bipartisan think tank Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) estimates that the first four days of the attack cost approximately $891 million per day, totaling around $3.7 billion. CSIS stated: 'Some of these costs have already been budgeted, but the majority ($3.5 billion) has not been accounted for.' This staggering figure is primarily due to the intensity of the initial strikes, during which the U.S. military launched approximately 2,000 precision-guided munitions against Iran, including an unspecified number of Tomahawk cruise missiles, each costing over $2 million. The costs may also include the loss of three F-15 fighter jets in Kuwait due to friendly fire, with each jet valued at approximately $31 million. Additionally, there are expenses associated with the rapid mobilization of forces. According to a budget estimate, even during the peak of the Iraq War, the cost of military operations was only about $300 million per day. (Jin10)
