Snip:
A US lawmaker says the American military lost at least 39 aircraft during 40 days of the US-Israeli war of aggression against Iran.
Democratic Congressman Ed Case made the statement during a Senate committee hearing on Tuesday while questioning Pentagon Chief Financial Officer Jay Hurst about the scale of US military losses in the war.

According to the report, 39 US aircraft were destroyed, and another 10 sustained varying levels of damage.
It also said that an F-35A Lightning II was struck inside Iranian airspace and that a Boeing E-3 Sentry aircraft was destroyed.
Still wondering if that rescue operation was a front to snatch the enriched uranium.
We’ll find out in 40 years when it’s declassified and no one gives a fuck
we might find out sooner if one of the vassals has a revolution and the US embassy doesn’t destroy the documents well enough
I’ll tell the AI I pay $99/month to simulate having grand children in VR to that I was waiting for the day I could tell them I knew it all along.
the people in our government has made that claim and it seems to be true based on the amount of hardware that was involved. they were trying to establish a forward operating base at an abandoned airport near isfahan nuclear facility but they got ambushed. it’s interesting how insignificant it is in the minds of people considering how much iranian state media covered it, saying this was Tabas 2 and such.
I think they were trying to establish an airbase to prepare for the follow up mission (which would take days/weeks?)
i still don’t understand how they think they were going to dig it out of a site they bombed last year
