Thank you.
Thank you for coming, General. I'm a great supporter of the military.
You don't have to comment on this, because it's not your area, but you said in your paper:
This requires a range of capabilities to enable detection, tracking, interception, identification, shadowing, and, in the extreme, diversion or destruction of manned or unmanned air vehicles that are assessed to pose a threat to North America.
It's too bad that there's nothing the least bit similar that we've heard related to submarines. So it depends what vehicle they come in.
In response to Mr. Coderre, you said you didn't have the figures with you about the distances of the flights. I wonder if you could get that to the committee clerk later. Of those eleven occurrences, could you tell us how close they came, and whether there was any other military plane within that time from another country that came closer than any of those eleven flights?
