C-RAM radars - at least one US embassy was hit with an elcheapo drone as well, rendering it useless. Thats a legit problem and was only possible because they took out most of the important ballistics radars first.

How would a THAAD in Jordan help stop drones in Iraq? That's not the only radar they operate.

The C-RAM was in Baghdad, the high end radars hit were in the other gulf states.

The CWIS is probably the best anti-drone tool the US has but they have far too little of them and can get overwhelmed. They should have listened to Ukraine.
