US military begins Strait air defense at 9 am

The article discusses the United States' efforts to enhance the protection of commercial ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz by establishing specific crossing times, starting from 9 a.m., in order to reduce the risks associated with Iranian nighttime attacks and to improve the efficiency of military resource utilization. It explained that this decision comes amid escalating Iranian threats and aims to lower the high costs of continuous defense, noting that the expense of a modern military aircraft can reach $25,000 per hour. The article also highlighted Washington's efforts since May to provide aerial cover for ships during extended time windows, while Iran announced its intention to establish a "restricted zone" in the strait, within which sanctions threaten any vessel that enters.
