Some of them can travel longer than 1,000 miles.
They're very hard to find.
Iran has proliferated the technology to Russia.
That's how Russia is sustaining its war in Ukraine.
The Houthis in Yemen shot these things at tankers back in 2023, 2024, shut down the Red Sea.
This is like a hybrid warfare, terrorism, and it is the future and it's upon us.
And so that's what Iran is doing.
And now that means that it is a very good thing if we can actually
take apart Iran's defense industrial base, its ability to produce these things, these drones, these missiles.
But they have a lot of them.
They're using them.
They're proliferating them.
And the tactics are very similar to what Russia is doing in Ukraine, just firing these things off at civilian targets.
