🇺🇸 Some news on the US Army's Bradley replacement program. The Army issued a new RFI in February, opening the door to possibly re-competing requirement, rather than proceeding with an award of the XM30 contract to either Rheinmetall USA or General Dynamics Land Systems.
@brianlivesey21@KToropin@SECNAV We neeed to replace our old carriers depite the early issues with the fords, sinking this much money then cancelling it would just lead to another silly navy procurement fiasco
NEW: The U.S. Navy is reviewing the design and costs of the Ford-class aircraft carrier and @SECNAV is not ruling out canceling future ships of the class.
When asked if the review could scrap the Fords, Phelan said only that “it’s too early to say, but we will have carriers.”
"The Air Force and prime contractor Northrop Grumman are nearing an agreement to accelerate production of the #B21#Raider bomber program, company CEO Kathy Warden said today. With multiple aircraft in testing , the new bomber has been performing better than expected in modeling, Warden said at Citi’s Global Industrial Tech and Mobility Conference today" ~ Inside Defense 🔗👇
@OSINTWarfare Shit i think we should make the m1a2 sep3 or 4 and these m1e3 tanks. They could serve slightly different rolls on the battlefield. But it costs money we don't have likely
@LMFAO54115099@OSINTWarfare China copied Americas M1 CATTB and M1 TTB. They both were built in the 80s and had hybrid power packs and 1 had the 3 man capsule layout. Technically china copied America
@project_omnis@OSINTWarfare They did not, it is not a electric engine and you don’t need to charge it. It will likely be a hybrid diesel, The engine charges a motor like in a prius. Usually these engines are very small and easy to repair. Don’t freak the fuck out hearing electric.
@OSINTWarfare And how will that type of engine behave in combat conditions? How repairable is it? This all sounds extremely strange... Or did the USA decide to think about environmental emissions into the atmosphere?
@OSINTWarfare Of course as soon as people hear electric they start flipping out as if a hybrid electric powerpack hasnt been in every next gen tank and prototype tank since 1988
