your tax $
Yes, actually your tax money is paying for that and much more.
We had an airdrop (figure the cost of a C-17 flight for 90 minutes if a pair of Blackhawks cost $5k per hour to fly) that delivered us 20 pallets of spoiled milk and Gatorade protein shakes (which we threw right into the trash).
I've seen a $50,000 JDAM take out two Talliban on a hill, not because the mortars couldn't reach but because the pilots needed some bullet points for their tour award.
Our Delta keeps swearing that he'll light off a Javelin ($84,000) before the end of the tour for no other reason than "he's never fired one in anger before."
War is a serious waste of $. We could have saved trillions by just paying the Talliban a couple of million for bin Laden's head. But if we did that, what would Boeing and L3 do for funding? LOL.

War is hell, now pass the whisky!
Anyhow, nice kill.
