The precision strike capability has diffused down to the smallest lowest tactical level, and the US procurement system cannot keep up because the US uses $2 million missiles while adversaries have $20-50,000 drones that have been fired hundreds of times by the Houthis and Iranian-friendly militias in Iraq against US forces, forcing the US to fire two missiles per target to ensure a kill (double-tap), creating unsustainable cost-exchange ratios.
