#13  I expect that they are just talking about Navy pilots. Because the Ford catapult is electric and not steam driven they could program a shot for any airframe including drones. I doubt the Air Force has jets with hooks and trained pilots. This is not a situation where improv is a good idea.

#12  On Sunday, Austin said that the warships would carry U.S. Air Force warplanes 'to bolster regional deterrence efforts' - an effort to dissuade Iran or Hezbollah from taking advantage of the conflict and joining in.

Air Force, or like US Army Air Corp Mitchells?

#3  Notice no Israeli planes have been sent to the US to pick up reservists and volunteers.

Notice no USG offers for air transport from Ramstein or the UK.
