CBS: U.S. may have downed more than one Iranian drone, CENTCOM Commander Gen. Kenneth McKenzie says

"Well Harris, what I can confirm is what US officials told us just moments ago. That they now believe, as you mentioned, that two Iranian drones were downed by a US war ship."
Confirm that they told you something? Well thanks. At least I know that you didn't just make this one up on your own.
Confirming their belief that they may have...If it weren't for their numbers of toys, too many of these guys give the impression they couldn't beat much of anything on the battlefield.
