shaheen. >> thank you, mr. chairman. i guess i would like to follow up on senator ricketts questions and senator cardin. but first i want to go back, dr. karlin, you talked about the maintenance piece of our industrial base capacity and obviously the shipyard infrastructure optimization plan is making a huge impact on that. i can speak from the portsmouth naval shipyard perspective we're about to double our dry dock capacity and i will give us much more ability to maintain nuclear subs and get them out in an expeditious way. but but i guess, and i would e that we have made substantial investments in our defense industrial base in a way that is contributing to our ability to produce the submarines we need. i talked to suppliers in new hampshire who are beneficiaries of that investment, but it's still seems clear to me that despite all of that investment we don't yet have the capacity and that defense industrial base to build the subs that we need to meet the aukus agreement. is that an accurate assessment,, or to use some

mrs. gol asia competition and was selected as the best player of the iranian team . before this, the students of azam sanyas were the shaheenms of the united arab emirates and the philippines, and the representative of mexico won the women's ice hockey tournament of the emirates league cup with the presence of eight teams will be held in the city of al-ain, the players who have qualified for the final match of the women's open paddle competition will be determined in the semi-final stage of this competition, hosted by alborz, the team of sahaba fard and katayoun azizi, with a victory over donya tahunchi and mehsa sarbazi, will be on their way to the final match in the other game of this competition. the team of serovnaz komasi and sovar najafi won against the team of padna ghorchian and neda alipour and reached the final match. asian safi started playing tennis at the age of 9 and has been ranked among the top tennis players in the world . above, i think, in 11-12 foreign games and the world outside of iran, bere sefid was ranked 1069 in the world, which none of the iranian players had managed to reach this rank before, and

mr. iraqi , really, well, i have a fact, i say that the players of the first generation of the police, who made this team, that is, they came from shaheen, who separated, came together and put their hands on the koran, that if they are going to join a team with he also went and that in the end, the big team left persiz and these fans are falcons who come with the players and become fans of this team and giving credit to this team means that the fans gave credit to the players and to this team and made this team grow. my father's heart always overflows with the love of the fans and we should know that all over the world, mr. iraqi fans, if a player doesn't play, that player's job is over . remember, icardi was also the captain of inter when the fans didn't want him. in the end, the club had to sell icardi and draw a line on his name. the biggest asset of the team can be its fans. in iranian football we had a team like steti lazin, which brought many players and stars, but this team never became popular because it did not have the support it had now, the police press, esteghlal tractor sepa , that is, the big name fans. i really think tha

mr. ashtiani's mouth or hodar's smaller one see for yourself well, i have a fact, i say that they were first generation police players who made this team, that is, they are part of shaheen, they come together, put their hands on the quran, and if they are going to leave , they will go together, and in the end, the big persian team and these shaheen fans will leave. being with the players and becoming fans of this team and giving credit to this team means being a fan to the players and gave credit to this team and caused the growth of this team. hey, if you don't beat a player , that player's job is over, if you remember icardi was the captain of inter in inter when the fans didn't want him, in the end he had to sell icardi in tears and cross his name. the biggest asset of the team can be its fans. we had a similar team in iranian football like steti lazin , which has many players and stars, but never this team. it didn't become popular because it didn't have the support that police press, esteghlal tractor, sepahan has now, that is, the big name fans. i really think that the players should know what club they are playing for, and this majdoon club has its fans. thank yo
