Brigades interviewed reported using around 50, up to 100, and 90–110 FPV drones daily, mainly against small infiltration groups.

Stopping a platoon- to company-sized mechanized assault can require 150 or more FPV drones, with even higher demand expected during more mobile, non-positional fighting.

Iran right now is like a really old man who can’t afford to catch a cold. We have degraded them greatly. We shouldn't give in.

No deal for me is okay; a bad deal isn't. At the end of a reasonable period of time, 60 days or whatever, I think we ought to go back in and go Catwoman on them again.

We should eat them up and spit the bones on the floor.

Just as our fellow Iranians should gradually begin to see the light at the end of the tunnel, I also want the world to understand that we are getting closer every day.

At the same pace that the Islamic Republic's ship is sinking, the potential for change is becoming more real.

I think one of the main reasons for the global response—especially the two countries that became involved with the Islamic Republic over the past few months, Israel and the United States—was the trip I made to Israel two years ago.

I made it clear that there is a difference between the Iranian regime and the people of Iran and that the Iranian people are not their enemy.

This tactical retreat was necessary, because you cannot keep sending people into the streets only for them to face another wave of brutal repression.

We changed our tactics based on the realities on the ground.

Let's not forget these external blows came after the people had entered the streets.

President Trump is always five steps ahead of them.

President Trump is a president of peace. He will always give diplomacy a chance...

We need 350 ships. That is exactly why the president is pushing for this $1.5 trillion budget so we can build the ships we need.

Ships were extended until 11 months on deployment because we do not have enough ships to backfill them.

The scene is devastating. Something unlike anything seen before.

The U.S. response has been massive, unprecedented, and swift. The focus is 100% on saving lives.
