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

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

Deterrence requires spending our limited resources on both offensive and defensive weapons.
