Stopping short of saying there is full United States involvement in Israel's claim to air superiority over Tehran, President Donald Trump said it was American-made military equipment used to secure it.
"We now have complete and total control of the skies over Iran," Trump wrote Tuesday on Truth Social. "Iran had good sky trackers and other defensive equipment, and plenty of it, but it doesn't compare to American made, conceived, and manufactured 'stuff.'"
"Nobody does it better than the good ol' USA," he added.
The statement is a poke at Iran amid tensions over nuclear talks and Iranian claims that the U.S. is participating in Israel's attacks on Iranian nuclear facilities, military leadership, and nuclear scientists.
