The US Navy is using $10 million missiles to shoot down $10k drones. Do the math. They could deplete US Navy stockpiles for trivial costs. They have turned the US Navy's strength into its own weakness.

The US navy could glass Yemen in an afternoon.
What people don’t realize is that the US hasn’t actually fought under LSCO conditions since early Vietnam, as regardless of the scale of the deployment the ROI and thus the tactics that can be employed were mostly limited to LIC/PKO.
This reasoning would make sense if it was the case that the U.S. is incapable of doing something else to prevent drone attacks. The U.S. has chosen a course of action but it is not limited to doing just this. There are many other options.
It's using the phalanx as well. Those rounds are pretty cheap.
