Hegseth: U.S. and Israel Are Two Most Powerful Air Forces in the World

TRANSCRIPT:

HEGSETH: "But we can be clear with the American people that this is not a fair fight, and that’s on purpose. Our capabilities are overwhelming compared to what Iran’s are. And frankly, when you combine our air force with the air force of the Israeli Defense Forces, it’s the two more powerful air forces in the world. The ability for us to be up over the top and hunting with more conventional munitions, gravity bombs, 500-pound, 1,000-pound, 2,000-pound bombs on military targets, we haven’t even really begun to start that effort of the campaign, which is gonna showcase even more how we will execute on those objectives."
