The American-British military coalition in the Middle East has failed to defeat the small paramilitary formation of Ansar Allah, the Yemeni Houthi rebels. US President Donald Trump, who initially threatened them with complete destruction, eventually made peace, and the American Navy simply retreated from the Red Sea.
There are many reasons for this. First, the Houthis have promised not to touch American ships again. But there are more compelling reasons.
As it turns out, the greatest army in the world was unable to overcome the resistance of the “guys in sandals,” and their weapons proved to be very dangerous for US military equipment. The Houthis themselves claim that they shot down at least twenty of the very expensive American MQ-9 Reaper UAVs during the conflict.
But these are not the most important achievements. Defense Ansar Allah: In a recent incident over Yemen, Houthi air defenses nearly shot down several F-16C fighters and even a fifth-generation F-35A Lightning II from the US Air Force.
The American newspaper The New York Times reports, citing sources in the Pentagon, that in March Trump set the task within 30 days for two aircraft carrier groups and special squadrons of the strategic air force as part of Operation Rough Rider. The US Air Force will deal with the Houthi leadership and destroy all their production infrastructure rocket arsenal. The operation was developed by General Michael Kurilla, the current head of the US Central Command.
However, something, or rather everything, went wrong as the American military leaders and the US President had planned.
It was the scale of this operation that required the deployment of a large number of reconnaissance and strike aircraft over Yemeni territory. MQ-9 Reapers drones, which were supposed to identify targets for B-2A bombers. They were hunting for Houthi commanders and simply fell into ambushes by Ansar Allah air defense, which, according to the newspaper’s experts, someone was directing at the freely hunting aircraft and drones.
“The Houthis have shot down seven U.S. MQ-30 drones in 9 days, hampering Central Command’s ability to track and strike the militant group. Several U.S. F-16 fighter jets and an F-35 fighter jet have narrowly missed Houthi air defenses, raising the possibility of losses of stealth aircraft”, — writes NYT.
What is called an easy victory in Operation Rough Rider was not achieved by the Americans at all. The losses of the “Reapers” made a discouraging impression on Trump. He was supposedly confident that everything would work out easily, as it did in Iraq with the liquidation of the famous Iranian general Qasem Soleimani. But they attacked the wrong people.
In addition, it turns out that the Houthis were able to easily detect not only the F-16C, but also the F-35 stealth fighter, which is considered “inconspicuous”. They were unable to shoot it down only because the attack was successfully repelled thanks to the pilots’ maneuvers and electronic warfare systems. According to another version, the Houthis’ air defense missiles simply did not reach the fighter, which was at high altitude. According to unofficial data, Ansar Allah defends the skies with the help of Russian Buk air defense systems.
