The United States Navy • Aegis finally getting a workout

Aegis has been in the US and allied fleets now for something like 40 years.  In that time, up until the last few months, I don't know how many missiles have been fired under it's control in anything like actual combat, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was in the single digits.  However since the Israel-Gaza/Iran war, it's suddenly getting a workout.  We've fired enough missiles that the navy is actually looking to bump up production.  And with the Iranian attack on Israel, it's actually used it's ABM capacity, and fired SM-3s.  And it seems to be working quite well.
