  1. Without the Javelins, the war would have gone underground within days of the Feb 22 attack.

  2. Putin is outdated, but they didn't replace him.

  3. China's in for a serious bloody nose. Taiwan's been upgrading lately... They need a volunteer corps.

  4. That is Japan's decision alone.

  5. I trust the analysts in China. If they thought now was a good time to invade, they would invade.

  6. The Bradleys are already rolling on trains into Poland. 🇵🇱

  7. What's to stop anduril's CEO from disabling it over China like a CEO disabled Starlink over Crimea?

  8. Depends on whether Zelenski is willing to draft people from 18 to 25 years old.

  9. Ah! So THIS is why Putin invaded. He wanted one to play with at Sochi.

  10. History has taught us that, Improperly Deployed Infantry Officer Type(s) will try to use light tanks against heavily armed and armored Main Battle Tanks whenever they get the opportunity. It looks good on paper because they're easier and faster to deploy to the combat area.

  11. The puppets are taking over. Soon AI will be indistinguishable, and Binkov will be their leader. 🤯

  12. I'm really curious about what the secondary armament is going to be. I keep think Gau-19, or Gau-21, both in 12.7mm might be more sustainable than a 30mm, but you can't program a 12.7mm - yet. Still, ballistics computers are always getting better too.

  13. SPARTANS! What is your profession?

  14. Yeah, we could, but why bother?

  15. They should add a ramming capability for Chinese Coast Guard.

  16. Just out of curiosity, I tried my hand at designing a good corvette for the U.S. Navy for use in the Western Pacific region. When I finally compaired it to the Constellation Class, which is a Corvette by Fincantieri standards, I realized it's right within the standards I came up with. Not my ideal armament or size, but the compromises I reached anyway. I would have made it shorter for ports in the area, but under 500' was the limit. They want it Blue Water worthy so that's good. I would have put a 76mm, 105mm, or even a 127mm main gun, but the cyclical rate of the 57mm is hard to beat for close-in air defense from a main gun. The range is minimal though. One Seahawk, check. Better propulsion system than the LCS, not hard to do. The rest is spot on. 😊 We just need a hell of a lot more of them! Like, 120 of them. That's the 80 optional, plus another forty, but maybe another 40 would be good if not complemented by something else like a new destroyer class. Oh, one question: is it an aluminum hull? And if so, I hope it's a better alloy than they used on the LCS! Also, they under engineered it for the material they knew they were going to use. Tsk tsk - it's pointless to go modular. You get more coverage from a multirole platform.

  17. Those are not carriers, they are Defensive Assault Vessels with incidental capabilities.

  18. Think of all the Corvettes we could have had for the price of those LCS. That's even sadder that being replaced by frigates.

  19. Everybody wants to look like they're in HALO.

  20. Anything that relieves the load on the 155s is going to help increase ammunition availability. 😁

  21. It's a BMP killer. ATVs with Javelins beat the M1 in wargames

  22. We need corvettes to replace the LCS program, in addition to the frigates.

  23. Maybe they can hire some Muppets. 🤪😜🤠

  24. Everyone is slowly waking up to China, but we still have some sleep in our eyes. We're delaying the inevitable so that we may be ready. Sun Tzu was not right about everything. Maybe that's why he wisely disappeared into the mountains like Musashi later did.

  25. Who said that 20 years ago? More like today, but only nature can collapse the land.

  26. Bad alloy, probably has glass in it.

  27. Not with me, that's for sure. My 4 kids saw what Bush did with our expensive and well trained army, and after that, I couldn't a one of them to even talk about joining the army...

  28. Read, "Earthlight", by Arthuur C. Clarke.

  29. What do you need a crew for then? If it's fly by wire, you don't need a driver in the tank. The other guys are superfluous in the bottom of the tank. All you need is to follow the tank with a recovery vehicle.

  30. We can take Moscow. Just do it in the summer. Duh!

  31. We need our allies to build lots of Corvettes. We're basically stuck with a blue water navy. The frigates are about as small as we want to go for cross Pacific travel.

  32. Chump Change 😜🚀

  33. Big hit on China's Eastern side strategy.

  37. They need to take Donetsk Airport. Somebody should do an analysis. This is the Hub of the conflict. Not much going on right there, but the location is pivitol. That's why Russia put in a lot of effort early on to take it.

  39. They have awakened a sleeping... hey wait a minute!

  40. I'm pretty sure Trump can't do that with Congress. Anyway, he would look really stupid if he did that. He must be used to that by now...

  41. I hope we don't screw it up like we did last time. We really abused those people over there. The U.S. needs to provide a better example than it has in the past.

  42. Sounds like a reason for Putin to invade Ukraine...

  43. 😝😛

  44. Congress passed a law giving the President the authority to go to war without declaring it. It was their own stupidity more than anything else.

  45. It's already in NATO, so it is required to defend allies. If that's what you mean by "Sharing."

  46. The U.S. military already knew Russia's military was weak. That's why we had far fewer active troops. The big is The Bomb of course.

  47. I think they want to reinforce Transnistria, and they don't want us to see.

  48. Hey! That's supposed to be a secret!
