Unique camouflage used by 11th ACR during REFORGER 83.

They should hire me for the next democratic OSD so I can send memos to MDA et al taunting them for not giving their missiles tri service designators

I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt it’s Overlord. There is like more fleet carriers in this scene than US and RN had combined in 1942.

When you're in the Indianapolis Militisya's OMON unit and the Indiana Soviet orders you into action against counterrevolutionary forces invading from Ohio:

Nothing beats the first super carrier being old enough to be commissioned with 8 5 inch guns

Managed to stick around long enough to use rim-67

All I knew about it was that Brits have had it with CROWSNEST and plan on retiring it 2029. Project Vixen is a AEW/ASW/Strike platform but they haven’t made any decisions on it. They’re also looking at the mq-28 for Vixen which leads to the Project Ark Royal to expand the flight deck and add EMALS.

GA-ASI's MQ-9B SeaGuardian Showcased in NAS Whidbey Island Open House General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) deployed an Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW)-configured MQ-9B SeaGuardian® Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) to Naval Air Station Whidbey Island (NASWI), W...

Guess we are, must of missed that.

They tested and earlier model without the censor suites off the US east coast in 2023

This is for the British which will replace CROWSNEST soon and wants a UAV replacement which can also do ASW and strike missions.

IIRC the Mark 57 is larger so in can accommodate missiles with more powerful motors rather than larger missiles.

The Italians put a OTO 76 on leopard 1 and OF-40 hulls

JSM is the only AShM that fits internally on the F-35. Australians Germans Japanese and Italians are buying as well. Not the British tho which is strange since they bought some NSM for their frigates and FC/ASW has no plans to be integrated into F-35.

It’s either INDOPACOM trying to dial down Colby’s rhetoric or it’s Colby taking a INDOPACOM suggestion to the Brits and going wild with it.

This was from last month.

TD likes strongmen. He disliked Sunak because of defense policy and likes strongmen because they give him vibes that they are good for defense policy.

TD isn’t a Tory anymore he is Reform now. He didn’t like the Tories because of Sunak and was a big Boris fan and didn’t like how the party treated him. He has always been British Salamander just everyone seemed to ignore it. Drummond is just your typical racist former army type.

A member of Taiwan's parliament stole a bill and ran off with it to prevent it from being passed

Reality: You might not be interested in defense but defense is very interested in you

Average Dem staffer: but have you considered that I went to Yale

Decent chance this person hasn’t either and just says they did but for leftist reasons because they think it makes them cool

Mark 41 launched SiAW

But not Taiwan or Hainan

kinda insane there is a shrine to an indian jurist with a quote from jefferson davis at japanese war criminal disneyland

Not like the media hasn’t been unwilling to make unsubstantiated claims about this in the past with IKE last October but this may be more of a media under Trump v Biden result.

I think the bigger issue is that the Red Sea is so small it would be inexcusable not to react in the quickest and safest manner when shot at. This photo really demonstrates how low the elevators can get so it’s probably like who cares about the tug let’s turn the boat asap.

Given what the past few months have been like I don’t have any faith in the government or navy to not leak something, on purpose or not, if it was more than a wrong place at the wrong time problem.

I do feel like people, rather understandably, are making this a bigger deal than it probably is. Maneuvering the carrier away from what is shooting is normal instead of assuming it was a near miss. But the latter is still possible.
