THAAD Radar Shredded: $300 Million Down in Flames, Iran's Devastating Hit Blinds US' Gulf Eyes?

Iran’s war just went from brutal to strategic. A $300‑million AN/TPY‑2 radar – the “heart” of a US THAAD battery – has been “struck and destroyed” at Jordan’s Muwaffaq Salti Air Base, satellite images showing two gaping craters where Washington’s long‑range super‑sensor once stood. With Jordan’s unit down and earlier hits on a billion‑dollar AN/FPS‑132 early‑warning radar in Qatar and shelters tied to THAAD sites in the UAE and Saudi Arabia, analysts warn the US missile‑defence network is under real strain even as ballistic salvos ease and drone swarms keep coming.
