@Laotzu.Goldbug I've been in aerospace and defense since the 1970s. Some of the programs we worked on were the ALCM, SRAM, SRAM II, JDAM, and other guided weapons systems, so I'm quite familiar with what it takes to get a warhead on-target. Before JDAM, it was all INS-based.
The launch aircraft would get an update for its INS with Radar ground-mapping off known reference points before weapon separation, then pass that data to the missile so it would start off with the best available position references.
Degradation of INS was a real thing, especially with weather. GPS and other things take precision-guidance into a new generation since then. There are better off-the-shelf guidance systems nowadays available to civilians.
You do have to take terrain into consideration though, including altitude and solve for that if you want to fly a Nap Of the Earth profile.
With modern digital mapping from satellite-based programs, you could manually chart an NOE course into a corridor, or run a real-time terrain-following profile algorithm.

Baby Boomers had Gen X and Millennials. Gen X had Millenials and Gen Z.
So I see a current growing consumer base of these 3 prime working years generations.
Gen X are in management and early mid-life stages, many earning over the median household income.
Older 1st phase millenials born in the early-mid 1980s are coming into their own with home ownership, at least 10 years of solid credit history, stable work history.
Younger millennials and Zs are facing out-of-reach home ownership prices outside of apartments and town homes, and just watched median home sale prices fly away from them just as they thought about reaching for a single family residence, which is sad to watch.
Boomer and Gen X are watching their children have a bleak outlook on the future, which they feel together with them.
There is a strong consumer base for automobiles, home appliances, personal electronics, computers, TVs, insurance, education, and groceries.
All of those industries own the legacy alphabet media, who most of the 3 living generations don't trust and have ditched viewership of if you look at Nielsen ratings trends.
I think that's a pivotal pillar going forward: the decoupling from legacy media and information sources combined with decoupling from deglobalization.
We just don't trust the corporate news spigots that have lied to us for so long. This presents great opportunities and challenges.

@kaseyc5078 Yes, but after WWII, there was a massive deficit in prime age males who are necessary for rebuilding society, and getting back to work. All of the European nations except for Switzerland and Sweden suffered tremendous losses to their native prime age males.
What many of them did was import workers from Turkey, North Africa, Eastern Europe, and the Middle East. Most of these men worked the low-skilled labor jobs, while some of them went into higher-skilled education and work as well.
Along with all of that, Europe adopted relaxed abortion laws, so native young adult females exterminated their children in the womb. This created even more demand for foreign laborers.
The problem is that these foreign laborers were enticed to come to Europe to take advantage of “free” social welfare programs, not to work. The uneducated and altruistic weak Europeans who idealized their social safety nets started to see that the immigrants weren’t contributing to society with productive work and paying into the tax system.
What did they do? Abort more of their children, and import more foreigners with promises of free everything. The consequences of this are disenfranchised and separate class of foreigners who will never be accepted as natives, who see themselves as superior to Europeans due to their own bigoted ideology and internal messaging from elders.
This means from a societal order standpoint, you have a people who don’t respect the nation’s laws. Any time you try to enforce the laws when they break them, they feel like they’re being discriminated against, rather than accepting responsibility. You also have genuine criminals who will use this dynamic to claim discrimination in hopes of avoiding consequences for their crimes.
The best thing would be to deport everyone back to their homelands because they refuse to integrate and refuse to obey the laws, refuse to work to contribute, while stealing the workers’ fruit.

@hermaeusmora2945 Putin had the expansion of Russia into its "rightful territories" planned out since he assumed office in 2000. It literally didn't matter what anyone in Europe or the US did, he was always going to invade or place puppets and install Russian forces in Georgia, South Ossetia, Ukraine, Moldova, Finland, Poland, the Baltics, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Romania, and Bulgaria.
The Ukrainian SMO was supposed to be a Desert Storm-like moment for Russia with shock and awe, sending mass fear into Europe so that subsequent nations would capitulate and crumble like dominoes.

@CanadianPrepper It's really not. Nobody collects, analyzes, and forecasts like this. The presstitute corporate whore media drives messaging, and the "independent" online media is full of foreign disinformation and bad attempts by legacy presstitutes to adapt.
The overwhelming majority of start-up information channels don't even have a basic education in geography, history, economics, business, and industrial market structures, yet make all kinds of absolute prognostications about these events out of utter ignorance.
Then you have PhD professors and retired Generals running their mouths with ridiculous comments, getting some things right, while failing terribly with the fundamentals.
Show me anybody else who has broken down the global semiconductor industry structure, trends, and challenges in a way that both the industry professional and layman can understand in context.
