  1. And yet people are confused why Israel is showing no mercy
    642
  2. They dont trust the rebels with those weapons is the point
    470
  3. there is nothing odd about it Airport often have communities , roads and cities around them The wall is in case of a overshoot kepts the plane from departing the airport and plowing into whats on the other side
    336
  4. The landing is clearly pilot error all the way
    15
  5. if Houthis havent gotten the point by now, they may wanna realize that US is only just warming up
    14
  6. All the more reason why the US needs to gift Ukraine Harpoons and JASSM-As when Ukraine's F-16 become operational
    14
  7. Simple Ukraine is wining but there is still things that they cant do They can't strike the Black Sea Fleet ships and bases effectively but F-16s equipped with AGM-84F would allow to Ukraine to neutralize the Black Sea Fleet bases and ships The subs are diesel and if the supply ships and fuel storage is destroyed, those subs are useless The MIG-29 and Su-27 can't fully use JDAM and AGM-88s but F-16s would give Ukraine the ability to use the max capabilities

  8. The most powerful man in the world does not ride a bus

  9.  @Hicham_bgd2001  Hamas bright idea was picking a fight with a country with top tier military and virtually no restraint
    6
  10. The UK won't get involved but Iran at the same time will target the US and her allies.

  11.  @mokhan8146  Nice try but the US point was going after Bid Laden, once ,he was dealt with ,staying become moot As far as lost, the US withdrew They were not forced out This situation is far worst for Yemen as they are attacking ships international waters in major shipping lane They are messing with the pockets of many countries and thats going to cost them dearly
    5
  12. The Kursk was lost because poor maintenance , and variety of other factors The Moskva was equipped with 6 CIWS, SHORAD and EW that should have easily countered any such attack Secondly according Russia, they angle missiles and use cold launch system so that if there a major fire, they can eject the missiles into sea Yet nothing worked as it should

  13.  @stephengross4704  The clowns who mention Vietnam are simply desperate They only argument is conflict decades ago
    5
  14.  @aaronsung1989  They were situational allies with the West
    5
  15. Funny how Iran with all its supposed advanced tech cant find it

  16. Cue Ace Ventura LOOOOOOOSEERRRR!!!!! to the whole republican party But Mccarthy will have his name in the history books as 6 time LOOOOOOSSERRR
    4
  17.  @PatRiarchy-qw6cp  The US and NATO cant risk it in Ukraine as it would likely lead to nuclear exchange but Yemen is free hand
    4
  18.  @DiGreatDestroyer  Thats by no means wasteful Sending a mission to get them would show that in a pinch , they have the ability to do so
    3
  19.  @jiminhart  Thats to be expected Lords still have preference of foreign vistors
    3
  20. The key part is not the wall but the pilot bringing the aircraft down at 200 mph The pilot was supposed to kill as much speed as he could to kill his forward momentum Judging by the video, he clearly overshot the mark and landed too far down to runway this is all pilot error
    3
  21. Time to pay the piper
    3
  22.  @mokhan8146  U forget they had Afghan on its knees within a matter of days
    3
  23. Its simple Russian claimed destruction because it looked like the missile struck, however the US revealed that damage was minimal
    3
  24. They stepped up their attacks because if Ukraine gets integrated air defence system (IADS) up and running with Western equipment , things will go from bad to worst for Russian forces over night
    3
  25. They decided to FAFO and now the TLAM and bombs are dropping
    3
  26.  @Hicham_bgd2001  The US showed restraint whereas Israel is not
    3
  27. Ukrainian tanks are no match for Russian T-72/80/90 one on one however Leopard 2, Abrams and Challenger 2 can more than hold their own against T-72/80/90 one on one
    3
  28. Considering that the US stated the Ukraine would be getting the max range ATACMS , yeah Russia's good times are over
    3
  29. Easier way to end this war
    3
  30. The F-16s was always the choice simply due its numbers sourcing 100 F-16s out 4000 is easy
    3
  31. If Russians' dont want to fight, then tell Putin to withdraw from Ukraine that simple
    3
  32. He try and find out very quickly that the West aint Ukraine
    2
  33. Not exactly All they have to do is collapse a section of bridge and Russia would be denied use of it
    2
  34. What has been achieved nothing yet but if Yemen is not getting the hint that US and UK are still playing nice, then the US and UK should stop playing nice
    2
  35. Iran asking for trouble
    2
  36.  @sparta-zh7yk  Over 20 years and whats the worst they did to the US literally nothing
    2
  37.  @palind9884  what is supposed to happen is the once the plane cross the lights, the pilot is supposed to throttle down and flare the nose to aero braking the plane killing as much forward momentum as they can The plane was going over 200 mph which was wrong. The minimum speed for B-737-800 is 161 mph even with single engine The pilot should have been trying to kill his speed but judging by the landing, he over shot the mark and landed way late The wall people are attacking is the ILS Array which is supposed to be there so planes can land in all weather the Array boresighted on the runway
    2
  38. And the point the fact remains that Ukraine still stopped from reaching its intend target the fact remains that Ukraine defenses interception rate is starting to rise from a few missiles here and there to being able to counter whole attacks
    2
  39. This is why the US needs to loan Israel MQ-9s
    2
  40. Well if the Captain was killed, then that explains a few things
    2
  41.  @scrat4379  It sounds like the command staff was killed and there was no left to direct damage control efforts and the ship sank According Russia , the angled of the missiles and cold launch VLS aboard their ships allow them to eject the missiles into sea in cause of a major fire or damage If the command staff was killed, then no one was able to eject the missiles which was the major explosion that crippled the ship
    2
  42. After 7 months of getting their asses kicked, they have changed their tune
    2
  43. No need, Supply do like Russia did in the Vietnam and supply Ukraine with ample air defense equipment which would completely shut down Russian attacks The US has 1100 Patriots, They can spare 100. Same with the Avenger, they can spare 100 The Apside and Hawk also exist in large numbers. Israel's SPYDER is another option they need to look at Ukraine can get an integrated air defence system (IADS) up and running faster than training pilots
    2
  44.  @jamesm875  The problem there is cost but Ideally if they come out the gate and KO the Black sea fleet ships and level Novorossiysk and Sevastopol bases as well all bases in Crimea It would make a Foreign legion much more cost effective Ukraine would be able to focus on separatist regions with minimal effort
    2
  45. The balloon was at 60,000 which is pushing the safety envelope for pilots without pressure suits however the solar panels made it easy for the AIM-9X
    2
  46.  @duncansmith7562  True
    2
  47. They were warned and now steel is dropping
    2
  48. Combined with recent arms shipment Ukraine should be able to do some major damage
    2
  49. By all means Try

  50.  @rockykhan6338  When the US stops playing nice, that rolling thunder starts and Yemen starts glowing in the dark Yemen is dealing with one CSG and a few aircraft from the UK When the US stop playing nice Remember, the US can fly B-52s and B-1s direct to Yemen without the need for nearby bases The USN ships are not cargo ships there buddy , they have ways to counter Yemen weapons both hard kills as well as soft kill As US bases, its called PAC-3 MSE and THAAD as well SM 2 and SM-6 Yemen wouldnt last a week if the US went all out

  51. Its simple abacus Putin is staging these "referendums" and the results will be that occupied will all vote to become part of Russia Since they will become part of Russia, he will use that an excuse claiming that the West is attacking Russian territory and use that pretext to attack the West claiming they are the aggressors. Remember, back in Feb, Russia claimed that West supply of weapons wouldnt change the outcome yet 7 months of getting their asses kicked by Ukrainian forces Yet here we are with massive mobilizations despite Russian's claims of quote being in control in Ukraine The irony is that even if the West did back down, they still wouldn't lift any of the sanctions against Russia Russia annexing territory won't change anything

  52. Well no worries just buy another one
    1
  53. This mobilization is idiotic here person conscripted against your will, here is nice new weapons or tech that West would like to get their hands on Or person conscripted against your will goes to Ukraine and aids the Ukraine forces by letting them slip through Russian lines to kill Russian leadership or worst Not a good idea conscripting people against their will
    1
  54. A huge difference Ukrainian tanks are no match for Russian T-72/80/90 one on one however Leopard 2, Abrams and Challenger 2 can more than hold their own against T-72/80/90 one one one
    1
  55. There is only 1 To try to exhaust and destroy Western supplied systems
    1
  56.  @tommytomas-fr3sh  Bakhumt is literally moot right
    1
  57.  @speedyv6247  Bakhmut is moot as UAF is using Storm Shadows now Once UAF gets the hang of using them these will change very quickly Russia tried to twice to strike Kyiv and twice to strike at Patriot and failed miserably both times

  58. This mobilization is idiotic here person conscripted against your will, here is nice new weapons or tech that West would like to get their hands on Or person conscripted against your will goes to Ukraine and aids the Ukraine forces by letting them slip through Russian lines to kill Russian leadership or worst Not a good idea conscripting people against their will

  59.  @miriamsaleh3913  Wrong, the Houthis are attacking ships in international waters in the red sea They were warned
    1
  60. The fact is as long as the West is still aiding by the measured response rule, this will drag on The West needs to give Ukraine the means to end this decisively and quickly not drag on The West fear escalation is their biggest gift to Putin
    1
  61. Ukrainian tanks are no match for Russian T-72/80/90 one on one however Leopard 2, Abrams and Challenger 2 can more than hold their own against T-72/80/90 one one one
    1
  62.  @emojidinosaur7300  Yeah that happens Russian forces would be crushed in a matter of days
    1
  63. FAFO
    1
  64.  @shsh-he5qg  Wrong
    1
  65. Simple The balloon's solar panels generated more than enough heat for AIM-9X Secondly because the balloon likely was Signals intelligence (SIGINT) asset reading the electronic signatures , using an AIM-120 and APG-77 would betray too much info hence why the AIM-9X was chosen
    1
  66. Putin may say red line but he know honestly, he cant pick a fight with NATO What he is hoping and waiting for is trumpard If Trumpard gets in office , Putin can simply wait till after he takes office because he knows he will cut of Ukraine's supplies from the US
    1
  67. The Houthi's dont realize the game they are playing There are no questions about the situation, they are attacking international shipping lanes and countries have to a duty to protect shipping lanes They wanna strike back but fail to realize that no matter hard they strike, the US can always strike 1000 times harder than they ever could And thats not using nukes, that just sending B-52s and B-1s from Israel or Cyprus for round the clock strikes
    1
  68. Good job just don't over reach
    1
  69.  @Bill-y4h  Thats why uncle sam, Israel and Turkey are striking now its dual purpose One its gets weapons out of the rebels hands and two shows that rebels that US , Israel and Turkey have no problem using force against them
    1
  70. Yeah not happening Russia's designs on Kyiv are officially toast Ukraine hadnt be resupplied by the US since Nov if last year hence Russia's recent gains Part of this package includes the max range ATACMS The same ATACMS that shredded an S-400 site in Crimea and forced the Black Sea Fleet to abandon its base
    1
  71. This mobilization is idiotic here person conscripted against your will, here is nice new weapons or tech that West would like to get their hands on Or person conscripted against your will goes to Ukraine and aids the Ukraine forces by letting them slip through Russian lines to kill Russian leadership or worst Not a good idea conscripting people against their will
    1
  72.  @keithfrancis4549  Sorry Ivan but satellite imagery taken before and after confirms both ships are lost Updated imagery show both pens burnt out which confirms that massive fires were raging Just think When Ukraine gets F-16s, scenes like this will be repeated across Russian bases
    1
  73. Right the massive exodus via planes, trains and automobiles is just a hand ful of people cope much
    1
  74. Exactly why the US need to give Israel support RQ-4s for intelligence, surveillance and, target acquisition, and MQ-9s with Helffire for target destruction Guarantee Hamas wouldnt be moving freely if the reaper drones were airborne 24/7
    1
  75.  @annviolet4727  And the US should continue to back Israel fully
    1
  76. Putin wont do anything because hes waiting for the US election
    1
  77.  @WorksOnMyComputer  There are several factors at play but most likely they chosen the AIM-9X and F-22 to minimize the damage to the balloon so they can recover it mostly intact
    1
  78. Not acting great Absolute legend
    1
  79. Yeah they know their time is up
    1
  80.  @izajahmed8863  The max range ATACMS carries 500lbs warhead which is perfect for strike targets like the Kerch Bridge
    1
  81. Its called getting rekt
    1
  82. Incorrect The balloon likely was Signals intelligence (SIGINT) asset reading the electronic signatures , using an AIM-120 and APG-77 would betray too much info hence why the AIM-9X was chosen The balloon's solar panels generated more than enough heat for AIM-9X. IR missiles are passive and do not betray any info
    1
  83.  @leecolburn7849  Hard to see from that vintage
    1
  84.  @waiwai5233  The issue is why the runway had no overshoot protection
    1
  85.  @oreoconsushi1848  City cropped up around airports its just the way it happened over time however airports in the US are required to have engineered materials arresting system (EMAS) or measures to negate overshoots Ultimately its still pilot error as the landing was clearly blown
    1
  86.  @Balnazzardi  Its clear that Korea Office of Civil Aviation (KOCA) needs to look at the US FAA and EU EASA to improve its regulations, standardization and most important, safety rules
    1
  87.  @thehappycamper7360  Yet another failure on their part
    1
  88. Germany made its play to get the rest to join which honestly makes no sense The Leopard 2 is the most numerous tank in Europe and the easiest to get and operate in the shortest amount of time Why they pushed for Abrams considering the logistics of just getting them to Poland makes no sense The US has 3700 tanks in storage, they have move 31 by rail to shipyards 1 sea lift ship can carry the tanks plus support equipment. 11 days to cross the pond. Then have to be railed via UK to Poland or directly unloaded in Poland
