Exact cost remains unknown, but for context: each B-2 bomber is worth over $2 billion, an F-35 runs around $100 million, and the USS Carl Vinson โ a Nimitz-class aircraft carrier โ cost roughly $4.5 billion. Caine said that โmore than 125 US aircraft participated in this mission."

Chairman of Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Dan Caine said 7 Spirit bombers were deployed to Iran, each with 2 crew members. It included U.S. subs that launched 30 Tomahawk missiles at Iranian targets. Also both 4th- and 5th-generation aircraft - including F/A-18s, F-22 Raptors, and F-35 Lightning IIs
