Fighter Jet Pilot Gets Honest About Killing In War, America's Insane Air Power

Jason Cooper used to fly through the air piloting one of the most powerful weapons on the planet.

Jason joined me on the latest episode of American Joyride to talk about his time in the Air Force as an F-16 pilot, and I can promise you don't want to miss this one.

He spent time enforcing a no-fly zone over Iraq prior to the 2003 invasion, was stationed to possibly fight North Korea and flew many sorties on a jam-packed 2008 deployment to Iraq that included a lot of work with Special Operations elements.

As always, grab your favorite drink, smash the play button and then make sure to send me your feedback at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.

I certainly hope you all enjoyed listening to Jason's interview as much as I enjoyed sharing it! Make sure to follow along at all the socials below, and keep coming back for more!
