Some people in the United States have begun to believe that since the outbreak of the Red Sea crisis, the US military has wasted nine months in intermittent conflicts with the Houthi armed forces. If this situation cannot be reversed, China will only reap the benefits.

Last Sunday, Yemeni Houthi armed spokesman Yahya Saraiya said that the Houthi armed forces once again shot down a US military MQ-9 Reaper drone in Saada province in northern Yemen.

Open source intelligence shows that this is the seventh MQ-9 drone lost by the US military in the "Guardians of Prosperity" escort operation. Based on the purchase price of 30 million US dollars for this type of drone, the US military has lost 210 million US dollars in the field of drones alone.

Even for the United States, this is not a small number. In addition to this number, the U.S. military's other financial expenditures in the "Guardians of Prosperity" escort operation have also reached a level that has shocked the outside world.

According to Politico magazine, the entire escort operation has lasted for about nine months if we count from last November when the US Navy officially planned to intervene in the Red Sea situation.
