The Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) has reported that the United States lost a significant amount of military equipment amid the ongoing conflict centered on Iran. According to the organization, the total value of destroyed or damaged assets, including advanced fighter aircraft and radar systems, is estimated between $2.3 billion and $2.8 billion. The information was cited by Al Jazeera.

The report indicates that the losses occurred across multiple locations in the Middle East, including Kuwait, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Iran, and the Strait of Hormuz. In some cases, specific sites were not disclosed, particularly where equipment was damaged during combat search and rescue (CSAR) operations.

CSIS noted that these losses could have significant implications not only in financial terms but also for the United States’ overall military capability in the region.
