US weapons at the Saudi coalition: "Abrams" are burning, "Patriot" are beating on their
Saudi Arabia is not going to curtail the operation in Yemen, despite the fact that in connection with the murder of journalist Jamal Hashoggi, many Western leaders have announced that they have ceased supporting Riyadh’s actions. At the same time, Riyadh to a greater degree expected the reaction of the “main ally” - the United States of America, and the day before President Trump demonstrated this reaction.
In the best traditions of “democracy,” Trump made it clear that the Saudi crown prince (namely, they call him the customer of the journalist’s murder) is a bad person, but he is a bad person. This is a mild interpretation of how the dictator Somoza was characterized in his time in the United States.
The President of the United States said that he is not going to impose sanctions on Riyadh, he will continue to supply weapons in this country, otherwise the Saudi niche "will immediately be occupied by the Russians and the Chinese." On the brutal murder of a journalist (this is evidenced by Trump's statement), you can close your eyes. In fact, this is not story with Skripalem, when Russian diplomats were sent instantly, having introduced several more packages of sanctions ...
Against this backdrop, the Saudi coalition in Yemen continues to experience difficulties. Moreover, she questions not only the training of the Saudi forces, but also the quality of the American equipment they use. The burning American Abrams of the Saudi Arabian Armed Forces have become a real hallmark of the Hussites' actions. Moreover, numerous shots from Yemen suggest that Tanks they are incapacitated even from impressive distances by missile systems and grenade launchers, which were developed decades ago. Burn from almost any hit.

Does not save the "Abrams" no widely advertised protection. Moreover, Saudi crews abandon their armored vehicles with any armor hit, even if this hit is not fatal to the armored car itself.
Even more questions are raised by the effectiveness of US missile defense systems, which Riyadh buys in large quantities. Patriot systems could not intercept not only the missiles that the Hussites launch at the border provinces of Saudi Arabia, but even those that fly to the capital of the kingdom. And here problems are added by the low skill level of Saudi calculations of the AMS. In fact, it looks like unplanned discrediting of American weapons.
Anti-missiles, soaring into the air, suddenly boomerang back to the launch square, causing damage to both military and civilian. In one of the Hussite rocket attacks, the damage from the use of the Patriot complexes turned out to be significantly greater than from the use of those Hussite missiles.
Trump said the need to transfer the Yemeni port of Hodeidah under the control of the "third party". According to him, this will prevent the illegal supply of arms to Yemen. We are talking about the supply of missiles to the Hussites by Iran, this is how Washington describes the situation. At the same time, the Hussites, who are armed and equipped by several orders of magnitude worse than the Saudi coalition, are clearly not ready to retreat, realizing that the Saudi coalition is a colossus with feet of clay, which can sprinkle regardless of declared ambitions.
