WW3 FEARS EXPLODE: U.S Deploys ‘Dark Eagle’ & Typhoon Missiles in Germany| Putin Vows ‘Consequences’

he U.S. has deployed Dark Eagle hypersonic missiles and Typhoon systems in Germany, sparking WW3 fears across Europe. Capable of striking targets over 3,000 km away, these weapons are aimed at deterring Russia amid rising NATO tensions. In response, Russia revoked its missile moratorium and threatened NATO allies with the deadly Oreshnik missile. With deployments planned in Asia too, including Australia and the Philippines, the U.S. missile strategy is reshaping global military balance. Putin warns of escalation, as both sides gear up for potential confrontation in Europe and beyond. #WW3 #DarkEagle #TyphoonMissile #USMilitary #Russia #NATO #Putin #MissileDeployment #HypersonicMissile #Germany #NATOVsRussia #UkraineWar #DefenseNews #MilitaryBuildUp #GlobalTensions #Mach5Missiles #StrikeRange #RussiaWarning #NATOWar #ColdWar2 #PutinThreat #OreshnikMissile #USArmy #MissileEscalation #EuropeDefense #ArmsRace #NATONews #USvsRussia #MilitaryCrisis #USAsiaDefense ~HT.318~GR.122~

U.S Fires 150 THAAD Missiles During Iran War, Burning Through $1.9 billion in Just 12 days [Video]

U.S Fires 150 THAAD Missiles During Iran War, Burning Through $1.9 billion in Just 12 days

During the recent 12-day war between Iran and Israel, the United States fired over 150 THAAD interceptors, exhausting nearly 25% of its total stockpile and racking up costs estimated at $1.9 billion. While the U.S. deployed its most advanced missile defense systems to shield Israeli territory, dozens of Iranian missiles still struck their targets — raising alarming questions about the limits of missile defense saturation and America’s readiness for future conflicts. The Pentagon now faces a growing stockpile crisis, with only 11 THAAD missiles produced in 2024 and a slow ramp-up planned for 2025 and 2026. As tensions continue to rise across the Middle East and Asia, the strategic shortfall of THAAD interceptors is being watched closely by major powers like China and Russia. This report includes archival visuals of Trump-era THAAD deployments, Iranian missile attacks, and exclusive coverage of defense developments as the U.S. military reassesses its global missile defense posture. #THAAD #IranIsraelWar #MissileDefense #Pentagon #USMilitary #IranMissiles #DefenseNews #MiddleEastConflict #ChinaThreat #IsraelUnderAttack #BallisticMissiles #MissileStrike #USvsIran #MilitaryBudget #Geopolitics
