Iran's attacks on U.S. military facilities in the Gulf have exposed the vulnerability of America's vast footprint in the region, prompting Washington to reassess its strategy. The Financial Times reports that the U.S. is considering a shift towards more agile and dispersed military models, moving troops and aircraft away from fixed bases near Iranian shores. The cost of repairing damaged facilities is estimated at around $5 billion, leading to debates over whether to rebuild or adopt a new strategy. The U.S. faces a strategic choice between spending billions on repairs or acknowledging the vulnerability of its presence in the region.
