Unchanged, upper estimate. Already includes June 2025 Operation Midnight Hammer and THAAD interceptors fired defending Israel ($1.80-1.95B within $2.04-2.26B Iran line). From 28 Feb 2026 all defence-of-Israel interceptor/THAAD costs fall inside the Pentagon Iran-war total (part 3), so adding a 2026 regional figure would double count. No published figure found for Oct 2025 to 27 Feb 2026.
