It's also a case of the sailors onboard the US Navy ships having to be successful everytime in their missile defence or intercept missions, while the Houthis only need to have one successful attack to sink a US Navy ship. It's unsustainable long term for the US Navy, one mistake and one of their ships is toast. The US has been forced to the negotiation table by the Houthis military actions.
