For those of you not familiar. The A-10 Warthog is the ugliest, most absurdly beautiful killing machine to ever take flight. A flying chunk of titanium molded around a gatlin gun style cannon; the equally absurd 30mm GAU-8. It commands the adoration of troops on the ground as the sound of its unmistakable mating call the “brrrrrrp” overhead means several enemy fighters have been neutralized. It flies low and slow delivering death more intimately than any other fighter jet could fathom. Cloaked in armor, it’s rumored to be able to take damage to 70% of its airframe and still land with ease. It doesn’t need a long or even paved runway. The uppity nerds running the Air Force have decided to “phase them out” this year… yet here they are continuing to “get some”. I personally think that @USMC should take the them over… they fit perfectly in our “take old shit and make it great” culture.

Chairman of the JCS Gen. Dan Caine: "The A-10 Warthog is now in the fight across the southern flank and is hunting and killing fast attack watercraft in the Straits of Hormuz."

@DanBurmawy In Christianity jesus tells his disciples to buy weapons and fight when they come for him. In Christianity jesus prays to god to help him and god doesn't answer his prayers but Christians believe god will answer theirs lol

In Islam, when the Romans came to arrest Jesus, he hid among his disciples and offered them a deal: “Who will take my place, and Allah will reward him with a castle in paradise?” The Islamic Jesus bargains for his own survival. He offers paradise as currency for someone else’s suffering. He escapes and someone else dies. This fits perfectly with Muhammad’s method, castles, virgins, rivers of wine, palm trees in paradise, divine bribery, used to extract whatever Muhamed desired from his followers. The Islamic version of Jesus is repackaged in Muhammad’s image: transactional, self-preserving, power-driven. The real Jesus, the biblical Jesus, didn't ask anyone to die for him, he died for us. allah and his so-called “prophet” aren’t worthy to untie His sandals.

@simongerman600 Pounds, stones, inches, feet, miles, acres. Fahrenheit. It doesn’t make sense at all. Interesting that the USA uses the metric system in science. Hopefully the poor Americans will fully switch to the metric system one day.

Not coming from an agricultural background, some measurements don’t make intuitive sense to me. A Hectares are easy enough to come to terms with: 10,000 square meters. Easy. An acre?! I still can’t wrap my head around this…

I learned a lot over a decade working in youth ministry within the Catholic faith. One of the biggest lessons was to never put a recent convert into a leadership role. Conservatives should take note.

@rawsalerts If a nation is willing to destroy its own infrastructure just to deny an aggressor an easy victory, that’s not weakness that’s resolve. Denmark made it clear: sovereignty isn’t negotiable, no matter how powerful the challenger.

I have been reading a lot about how plucky Iran is sticking it to the big bad USA and Israel. This is not analysis, this is delusion. The US and Israel have absolute control of the air space above Iran. End of story. You cannot, however, win any conflict strictly with air superiority. At some point you have to control ground. This is the next step to watch. Iran has one play to close the Straits of Hormuz. There are islands that would have to be taken to ensure this does not happen moving forward to eliminate risk. That is the ground that needs to be controlled. How and when this happens I have no idea, but it is probably required. Listen to sense in this conflict, not delusion. Analyze the ground, not the AI slop being peddled. #IranWar

The US and Israel have not gained complete air supremacy over Iran as claimed. This becomes clear when you look at the F-35 hit by Iranian anti-air fire. It raises questions about several things: 1) It seems the F-35’s stealth capabilities were defeated by advanced Iranian air defense systems. This is likely not ten first time, but rather the first time it has been reported. 2) Iran claims the engagement reflects significant and targeted improvements in Iran's integrated air defense systems. It is very likely that Russian radar technology and real-time intelligence sharing provided the eyes needed for this hit. 3) Russia reportedly delivered Khibiny-M electronic warfare suites to Iran as part of a deal for Shahed-136 drones. These suites can disrupt the digital coordination that U.S. fifth-generation fighters rely on, potentially making them more vulnerable to localized ground fire. 4) This raises questions about previous incidents. For instance, the IRGC claimed to have destroyed several American fighter jets on March 17, which CENTCOM immediately dismissed. Could they be lying? 5) Iran has successfully damaged U.S. communication and radar infrastructure across at least seven sites in the Middle East. This "blinding" of regional sensors makes it harder for the U.S. to maintain the "eyes" needed for total air supremacy. 6) At least 16 U.S. military aircraft have been lost or damaged since the conflict began. Was the incident in Kuwait really friendly fire? 7) The inability to gain complete air supremacy could be one of the reasons Israeli-American bombings have not been as effective as expected. There is reason to believe Israel and the United States do not have full air supremacy and have lost more planes and have run into more problems than expected or reported as a result

@Ciccio_87XX @academic_la If you like, given the Italian success rate in military conflict since 400 A.D., I can perhaps understand your complete lack of understanding of air superiority.

@Ciccio_87XX @academic_la They are being destroyed. You can thump your chest, but this is not a match between military equals. Iran has zero control of their airspace, their Navy is gone, and their islands are being eyed by a Marine Expeditionary Force. You are fooling yourself.
