  3. Iran: The Latest Podcast
  4. Pentagon admits mass US aircraft losses and base damage from Iran war
A landmark Pentagon report has exposed the devastating cost of
the Iran war for the US military: 59 aircraft damaged or
destroyed, bases struck across the Middle East, and critical
missile stockpiles depleted for up to 5 years.

On today’s episode of Iran: the Latest, Venetia Rainey speaks to
former Defense and State Department insider Kori Schake, now a
senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute. She unpicks
how the report lays bare the underpreparedness of Donald Trump’s
administration for Iran’s precision missile attacks on key US
assets. They also discuss how the toll of the war has created a
critical window of vulnerability that China could exploit in the
Pacific if it wanted to seize Taiwan. 

Plus, Anthropic’s new threat report reveals how Iran and the
Houthis are using Claude AI to finetune weapons and target the US
Navy, Trump goes behind Saudi Arabia’s back to make a secret deal
with the Yemeni militants over the Red Sea, and will Pete Hegseth
be impeached?
