🇾🇪🇺🇸 Houthi Forces Down 20th U.S. MQ-9 Reaper — Over $640 Million in Taxpayer Losses

Yemen’s Houthis have once again proven they don’t bluff, releasing footage of the twentieth destroyed American MQ-9 Reaper drone.

With each drone costing around $32 million, the U.S. has now lost over $640 million worth of reconnaissance assets — all on the taxpayers’ dime.

These repeated losses not only highlight the growing threat posed by the Houthis’ air defense capabilities, but also raise serious questions about the strategic value and sustainability of current U.S. operations in the region.
