The military operation named Epic Fury, conducted by the United States against Iran, costs $900 million daily. This data is provided in a study by the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), as reported by RBC-Ukraine.
Analysts noted that the first hundred hours of the operation cost approximately $3.7 billion, which translates to about $891 million each day. A significant portion of these expenses—around $3.5 billion—was not accounted for in the official US military budget.
Interest in these expenditures is shown by both members of Congress and the media and the public; however, various estimates have been voiced previously.
CSIS experts suggest that costs may decrease if US forces begin to use more economical munitions, as well as if the intensity of attacks from Iran diminishes. However, the final cost of the operation will depend on the scale of military actions and the effectiveness of Iran's countermeasures.
The Epic Fury operation began on February 28, when the US initiated military actions against Iran, later joined by Israel.
