00:00Do you have a new estimate about what the war has cost us so far in this, the fifth month
00:04of the first year of this war in Iran?
00:07Senator, the estimate we have as of today is $37.5 billion.
00:12And is the current activity, which we've been told about, the exchange of fire back and forth in Iran,
00:19an indication that that number is going to go up in the months ahead?
00:23Some of that number captures additional O&M, mill pay, and other that would be anticipated through the fiscal year.
00:28So some of that anticipates what costs would be going out in the future as well.
00:31So the new number you've given me is what?
00:35$37.5 billion.
00:37And that represents the cost of the war through what period of time?
00:41Through now for certain aspects of it, but also mill pay, O&M, other anticipated costs through September 30th, Senator.
