❗️"The United States should not send ammunition to Kyiv, but use it for its own interests," — U.S. Defense Secretary Hegseth.






From the last frames of the F-35 being hit by Iranian air defense. It looks like some shrapnel got into the air intake and damaged the engine, but the airframe looked largely intact. The important thing here is not whether a F-35 was shot down, it was the fact that Iran's air defense was able to detect, track, lock onto and shoot and damage a F-35. This alone is a form of deterrence, forcing the US to continue using expensive standoff munitions with their non-stealth aircraft and avoid using F-35 with impunity.

Hegseth: Every time we reach back and look at any sort of challenge we have, it goes back to “send it to Ukraine.” We think these munitions are better spent in our interest.

VP JD Vance said he welcomes internal debate over President Trump’s Iran policy but argued that senior officials who oppose it should resign rather than refuse to carry it out. He cites the recent resignation of the Director of NCTC as a good example. - NYT
