Excerpt below from full article above:
[Iran has made a decisive and public shift towards a strategy of economic warfare and attrition. The 2025 war is now seen as a blueprint that forced a hard pivot in their approach, moving away from seeking a decisive military victory to a long-term strategy designed to bankrupt their enemies. The most tangible evidence of this shift is the staggering 10-fold increase in production of attack drones in just the seven months after the war. This industrial surge is the engine of their economic warfare, designed to overwhelm air defenses through sheer, cheap numbers.
Iran possessed an estimated 80,000 to 100,000 Shahed drones at the start of this 2026 war, with a monthly production capacity of up to 500 for sustained pressure, or over 12,000 during wartime peaks. This strategy exploits the massive cost gap, where a $35,000 drone can force the use of a $4 million Patriot missile, creating an economic calculus that is “100 times” in Iran’s favor. By forcing two interceptors per target, they accelerate the depletion of American and Israeli stockpiles.
I have been warning about the sheer stupidity of the Neocons and their arrogance that Having the Biggest Military automatically means you win. Because we Cannot win a war of attrition, this means the only weapon they will be able to deploy when they run out of bullets is nuclear.]
