Show Notes
The war in the Middle East has shifted from high-intensity strikes to a grinding war of attrition defined by cost-exchange ratios. This episode analyzes the economic math of missile defense, where a $3 million interceptor is used to stop a $100,000 drone. We explore how leadership vacuums, brain drain, and the "target carousel" are defining this new phase of conflict.
