Naval Operations Chief Adm. Daryl Caudle admitted the fiscal 2026 budget did not account for the war against Iran.“We’re burning bright … but it does come at cost, and it comes at operational costs,” Caudle said.According to the admiral, the Navy is rapidly eating through fuel, operating hours, maintenance funds and munitions. Without extra funding, he warned he may have to start making cuts in the July timeframe.The strain could also hit personnel: Caudle said the Navy may have to pause permanent change-of-station moves for 12,000 to 15,000 sailors and delay enlistment and reenlistment bonuses.The price tag of the US-Israeli war against Iran has reportedly reached nearly $29 billion, while Washington may seek an additional $80 billion to $100 billion to keep the campaign going and replenish depleted munitions.Even US admirals now admit the aggression is draining the empire.
