Cost of the vanity war to the US is now forty-seven billion dollars.

The U.S. military now estimates that through mid-October, the war with Iran has cost $47 billion dollars, according to a Pentagon document reviewed by ABC News.

The new figure is a $3.5 billion increase from an earlier estimate of $43.6 billion through mid-September that was also compiled by Pentagon. In mid-July, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth had told Congress that the war had cost $37.5 billion through that time period.

Close to $29 billion worth of munitions have been expended by the U.S. since the start of the war, according to the document.

The costs of operations is estimated to total $11.9 billion, according to the document.

The document does not contain a cost estimate for the damage that Iranian attacks have caused at large U.S. military bases in the region, but it does say that equipment losses, including U.S. military aircraft, totals $6 billion.

The Trump administration does not include the cost of replacing the damage to the bases because it has yet to determine whether those bases will need to be rebuilt.
