🇺🇸 US Democratic Congressman Ed Case said Tuesday that the United States has lost 39 aircraft since the start of the war with Iran on Feb. 28, citing a report from a US defense publication.

Case made the remarks during a special Senate committee hearing while questioning Pentagon Chief Financial Officer Jay Hurst about the extent of damage suffered during the conflict.

“We've lost about 39 aircraft, according to a report in The War Zone, and that's an old one that's almost one month old,” Case said, asking Hurst whether the Pentagon had calculated “a retention cost on all those aircraft.”

Hurst replied: “There are costs there, sir, but I want to get back to you in writing and what they specifically are, because, as you can imagine, repair of aircraft is something that's very hard to calculate.”

“We want to do a full diagnosis of the aircraft before we estimate that cost,” he added.

The report cited by Case, published by US defense news outlet The War Zone, said the US Air Force carried out nearly 13,000 flights during the conflict with Iran.

According to the report, 39 aircraft were destroyed and another 10 sustained varying levels of damage.

The report also claimed that an F-35A Lightning II fighter jet was hit inside Iranian airspace and that a Boeing E-3 Sentry aircraft was destroyed.

Stop spreading fake news from the democrats. They would always look for ways to criticize Trump's administration.

Some aircraft losses and damage during the conflict appear to be acknowledged generally in congressional discussions and media reporting, but the exact number remains unverified.

There is currently no official publicly released Pentagon casualty/loss report confirming “39 aircraft destroyed.”

Also, “aircraft” does not necessarily mean only fighter jets. It may include drones, helicopters, transport aircraft, surveillance planes, and damaged aircraft counted as losses.

They hid all the casualties!

Facts now coming to limelight

The aircraft carrier was hit also and satellite images confirmed of recent that two destroyers were hit.

Why will the US president want satellite images blurred if not that shiit was real.

Hate or like Iran, you must give them that respect! They earned it by showing to the whole world that nothing is invincible!

He said it right infront of a pentagon staff at a senate hearing and asked him to his face the retention cost. Dude froze and was just blabbing.

Didn’t deny the 39! That was a mouth ago, meaning it could be closing up to 45-50 by now.

see the way you cunningly removed the facts that more than 70 percent of the aircrafts were unmanned like the reaper drones, and the rest were destroyed by US marines so their technology's doesn't end up in the hands of their enemies. Why did you omit that part?
