Air supremacy

Supremacy的意思是“最高权利、最高地位”；Air supremacy则表示“制空权”。当地时间4月8日，美军宣布已经掌握了整个伊拉克的制空权。实际上，当时伊拉克巴士拉、巴格达地区对于飞到其上空的美军飞机仍然实施猛烈的炮火袭击。尽管如此，美军仍然宣布已经掌握其制空权：The United States declared air supremacy over all of Iraq on Tuesday, asserting its warplanes can fly anywhere with impunity, even though an Air Force attack plane was shot down near Baghdad.
