Cruise missiles were the best weapons to use for this type of strike. We don't have a better medium range weapon that can both avoid anti-missile defenses, and hit precise targets.
Isn't that crazy that something we've been using for 30 years is still the best choice at this point? Have we slacked in our military R&D?

Comparatively, they're extremely cheap compared to modern weapons. The non-nuclear tomahawk cruise missile is still one of the most advanced cruise missiles in the world.

No other country has anything better.
