Richard Shelby: “The administration's proposed rescission of $98 million in funding for the construction of the Terrorist Explosive…”

As Senator Shelby at our Senate testimony hearing last March pointed out to us, we must maintain what we have before we can build new, and I think he hits the mark head-on.

I remain concerned that the Air Force budget request is insufficient considering the needed modernization across the inventory with a rapidly evolving threat.

Russia's launched multiple hypersonic weapons as part of their invasion of the Ukraine and China is continuing to develop its own hypersonic weapons.

We have got to get our arms, one, around the inflation first, and then try to boost our defense capabilities in a dangerous world.
