North Mississippi Delta / Alabama Gulf Coast
From a retired remodeling contractor. That is probably aluminum siding from the 70’s. Sears did thousands of homes.
Money not a issue-
Remove and replace existing siding.
Insulate between studs with appropriate material to fill cavity.
Seal around windows, doors & all penetrations.
House wrap seam taped.
New siding of choice.

Money is issue-
Carefully Remove and reinstall existing siding.
Seal all windows, doors & penetration.
Sealed house wrap.
3/4”+ foam board over wrap.
Siding. If there is damaged or unusable panels, consider doing a porch or even the whole back with something new to make up for damage area.
Great time to paint anything not covered and wrap window trim.
