NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! The U.S. military has lost or sustained damage to at least 81 aircraft during the war with Iran — nearly double the number identified five months ago, according to a new government analysis that warns replacing some of the critical vehicles could strain the military’s ability to meet demands elsewhere.The aircraft include some of the military’s most advanced fighters and critical support aircraft, as well as dozens of drones, the Congressional Research Service (CRS) noted in its report.The tally is nearly double the 42 aircraft CRS identified in May as lost or damaged, although the increase partly reflects additional information becoming publicly available and does not mean all 39 additional aircraft were lost or damaged since that assessment.ALARMING MISSILE REPORT DRAWS FORCEFUL RESPONSE FROM TRUMP AS IRAN WAR TESTS AMERICA’S ARSENAL CRS, a nonpartisan arm of the Library of Congress that provides research and analysis to lawmakers and congressional committees, identified 12 F-15E Strike Eagles, an F-35A Lightning II, seven KC-135 refueling tankers, an E-3 Sentry airborne warning-and-control aircraft and 45 MQ-9 Reaper drones among those lost or damaged since Operation Epic Fury began on Feb. 28, 2026.The body also warned that…
The phrase “80-20 issue” is thrown out quite a bit in spaces such as these. But Tuesday, a 95-5 issue seems to have emerged.The 95% in this case? The people on the internet bashing a piece from The Athletic that attacked WNBA guard Sophie Cunningham.Columnist Candace Buckner argued that the soon-to-be free agent was a “combustible” figure whose “turbulent” opinions were a distraction to the Indiana Fever. Never mind that Cunningham’s most publicized stance — that biological males shouldn’t compete in female sports — is shared by the vast majority of the country.This page may contain affiliate links to legal sports betting partners.

SOPHIE CUNNINGHAM SENDS MESSAGE TO HER HATERS AFTER SAYING MEN DON’T BELONG IN WOMEN’S SPORTSBuckner’s conclusion? That the Fever must part ways with Sophie so that they “can go back to being a basketball team.” This sparked the public to break out their drivers.Among the most prominent critics teeing off was nine-time Wimbledon winner Martina Navratilova, a staunch advocate of keeping men out of women’s spaces.

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! FIRST ON FOX: A lawyer for a U.S. Marine with the same name as one of the former Cornell University fraternity members named in a civil lawsuit says his client’s family has been doxxed, threatened and harassed after plaintiff Jane Doe’s lawyers incorrectly used his address in place of the accused’s in court filings.Attorney Elliot Hallak wrote to New York Judge Phaedra Perry-Bond asking for the filing with his client’s address to be stricken from the record “to alleviate the fallout” for his client and his client’s family.Doe’s lawyers acknowledged the error and filed an amended document using the correct person’s address, however, the incorrect filing remained publicly available, which left his client’s family exposed, Hallak wrote.BAR NAMED IN CORNELL RAPE LAWSUIT DISPUTES ACCUSER’S ACCOUNT, SAYS SHE WAS NEVER SERVED ALCOHOL WHILE UNDERAGE “The continued inclusion…of an incorrect address…is causing great hardship to the family of an active United States Servicemember who has absolutely no connection or involvement to this matter,” Hallak wrote.His client “has never been to Cornell University” and was stationed in North Carolina during the 2024 alleged gang rape central to Doe’s lawsuit, Hallak wrote.However, after filings in the…
NEWINGTON, N.H. – On the factory floor at gun maker Sig Sauer’s headquarters, giant shipping pallets of the brand-new M8 Next Generation Squad Weapon rifle sit shrink-wrapped on shelves, ready for dispatch to soldiers.Fielding of the M8 carbine, which appears set to replace Sig Sauer’s M7 as the Army’s standard rifle less than three years after the M7’s initial fielding began, will begin in December with some units at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, company executives confirmed to Military Times Monday. The NGSW new weapons rollout also includes Sig’s M250 machine gun, which will replace the aging M249 Squad Automatic Weapon and is expected to reach troops in the first half of next year, said Dave Buehler, the company’s vice president of manufacturing.Both weapons share an ammunition caliber: the 6.8×51mm Common Cartridge developed by Sig Sauer with a hybrid design intended to withstand high chamber pressure. The M7 stumbled out of the gate, generating complaints from soldiers about its unwieldy weight and length and undue wear they said the high-pressure rounds were putting on components, including barrels and suppressors. While Sig Sauer pushed back at the time on a number of the most strident complaints, the company is now casting the…
Editor’s Note: This article describing the citizen first responder is presented for discussion purposes. Know and follow your jurisdiction’s laws regarding self-defense, and ensure that anyone rendering aid is qualified to do so. Seek competent training from qualified instructors.A common definition of a first responder is a person who has specialized training and is among the first to arrive and deal with an emergency. Frequently counted in this group are law enforcement, fire rescue, and emergency medical services personnel. A broader accounting could include medical staff, pilots, the military, and public works personnel. A citizen first responder should be someone who has an increased level of preparedness and training when compared to a non-trained “Good Samaritan.”But the real distinction between a first responder and a Good Samaritan is the level of preparedness and training. While any person can be a helpful volunteer in a dangerous situation, a true first responder must have attributes that can more assuredly lead to a successful outcome.Right off the bat, obviously, you should avoid danger and conflict whenever possible. Unless it’s an unavoidable threat, your best course of action is always to avoid conflict whenever possible.But what about if you are truly facing a deadly…

The Army is opening military test ranges to private industry, the service announced this month, including a Michigan site where companies can test drones and counter-drone systems against electronic warfare conditions modeled after those in Ukraine. Companies will be able to request range access even if they do not have an ongoing partnership with the government, according to the release. The effort, the Army says, is designed to hasten the development and testing of drones, counter-drone systems, long-range fires and cheap interceptors. The service said it is launching four ranges in the U.S. and one internationally. The ranges include Dugway Proving Ground in Utah, West Cibola Range in Arizona, Camp Shelby Joint Forces Training Center in Mississippi, Camp Grayling in Michigan and Africa Multidomain Training and Experimentation Center in Morocco. “A company with a good idea shouldn’t need a team of lawyers and a program of record just to prove their equipment works,” Army Secretary Dan Driscoll said in the release. “So we fixed that. One front door — testrange.army.mil — a real person to walk you in, and on the other side, everything the modern battlefield demands: contested airspace, degraded signals and the space to test at real scale.”The…

The new survey shows more than half of Maine voters, 55%, are concerned her voting record aligns with President Trump too often, while fewer, 43%, are worried Jackson is too close to the Democratic Socialist movement.FOX NEWS POLL: GOP DIVISIONS SHAPE TEXAS SENATE RACEBy a 14-point margin, more independents are worried Collins is too close to Trump than are concerned Jackson is too close to the Democratic Socialists.

Only 36% say they’re voting for Jackson,…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Tuesday that President Donald Trump would be showing pictures and videos of unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP) and would likely hold a primetime address if the administration knew about it, addressing how some people think the government is covering it up.Katie Miller, host of “The Katie Miller Podcast,” asked Rubio in an interview about a conspiracy theory he believed in, and he brought up UAPs, but clarified he didn’t think it was a conspiracy theory.Rubio discussed how he’s been interested in UAPs ever since he was in the Senate, and said, “I don’t know who it is.

The Department of the Air Force updated its COVID-19 reinstatement process Tuesday, aiming to boost the return of eligible service members after thousands across the military were involuntarily separated for refusing the COVID-19 vaccine in 2021.The department will now process screening requirements and the force’s Board for Correction of Military Records jointly and employ case managers to speed up the return, according to the release.“The Department of the Air Force has a resolute commitment to rapidly return affected service members to the ranks,” Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Manpower and Reserve Affairs Honorable Richard L.
