The whole drone attack thing is a cash cow for military suppliers. Houthi Hamas etc buy cheap drones ,maybe a few thousand each and launch them at Israel. The get knocked with missiles that cost shitloads. Israelis are working on laser defence but the real game changer will be when microwave defense can knock down swarms of drones.The administration of outgoing United States President Joe Biden has notified Congress of a planned $8bn arms sale to Israel, according to US media reports. The Department of State sent the foreign affairs committees of the House and the Senate the notification on Friday
The weapons will include 500-pound (226kg) warheads, precision-guided munitions, artillery shells, missiles for jets and attack helicopters, and bomb fuses, along with air-to-air missiles to intercept projectiles, the reports said.
In August, Washington approved a separate package worth $20bn, which included jets, military vehicles, bombs and missiles.
In November, the Biden administration approved another $680m arms package to Israel, including small-diameter bombs and precision-guidance kits.
Biden stated, "After I leave office, I can't write a book to rake in the millions because i cant remember a thing, so I'm counting on a payout from the israelis"
