USA does not have the manpower or enough technical expertise anymore for skilled pilots, mechanics, technicians, logistics personnel etc. The USA has already started to focus more on drones and small teams of electromechanical technicians and operators for such drones.

@whitewolfcrowley6550 We still train infantry squads, armored units and support personnel because of small scale skirmishes that occur here and there. In an all out military war, I can see the US military deploying hundreds of thousands of drones all at once to bomb or strafe enemy logistics while the soldiers on the ground fight defensively against enemy units. Many don't realize how fast things have changed. It is no longer about man vs man, but rather, technics vs man.

@shadowkillz9606 Getting a 67 year old retired boomer to do military logistics is a joke. On top of that, everywhere I go, old people outnumber young people 10 to 1. And we all know how young people are less patriotic, less intelligent, less physically strong, and less capable than their forefathers.

@fredflintlocks9445 Boeing is now run by clowns and most of our aircraft are being built by under qualified idiots thanks to diversity quotas and affirmative action. America going woke is more reason automation will rapidly accelerate the replacement of humans in military combat.

@kordellswoffer1520 Haha, as if you know so much more, Lol. Just look at the recent recruitment crisis during the Israel-Hamas war. Go figure.

@kordellswoffer1520 You're no longer talking about the U.S Military. You're now discussing a mercenary force, Lol.

@kordellswoffer1520 Lol, yeah good luck finding technicians and mechanics when nobody wants to sign up in the U.S military. Even they (American military) admit that they're having too much trouble finding new recruits. Lol

@kordellswoffer1520 And you have nothing to back up your claims.

@kordellswoffer1520 No, you're making yourself look like a fool.

@RahimmacDonald The US military is in decline thanks to fewer young Americans willing to support and participate in the military. Why join the military anymore? To defend what? American sovereignty? We can't even defend our border and we go about fighting mercenary wars.
