I saw an interview with a French military official about the economics of shooting down Houthi drones. He said something like "if France shoots a $10,000 drone with a $10m missile, it's more accurate to say that the drone has destroyed the missile than the other way round."

But in the end Raytheon has won.

Do you think they get a Game Over screen when this happens?

It will be like the high score screens in arcade games. The Houthi will achieve the greatest naval victory in history and then they'll spell A-S-S next to the death toll.
