America lost at least 26 manned aircraft and 24 UCAV in a 29 day time span against an enemy it totally dominated.
This is based only on known losses.
This does not compound other NATO, Zhid and GCC losses found out subsequently.
AD efficacy dropped over 200% between week 2 & 3.

Dushevnaya looks almost nothing like herself from the first game. I mean, I can tell it's the same doll, but she changed A LOT

@Aussie_Sailor @sentdefender Expandable doesn't mean infinite. If losses of expendables rack up and you run out of them, either you risk more valuable platforms or give up on fullfilling a mission
English
@sentdefender Yes, but that's why we use them. Drones are expendable. Human pilots are not.
Don't let's start calculating expendables.
Why? Because they're EXPENDABLE! 😅😅😅

Earlier tonight, a U.S. Air Force MQ-9 Reaper carrying several AGM-114R9X Hellfire Air-to-Surface Missiles, known more commonly as the “Flying Ginsu,” was shot down by Iranian-backed forces over Houthi-controlled Western Yemen, with wreckage seen in photos and videos clearly that of an MQ-9. Over 40 MQ-9 Reapers, potentially worth upwards of a billion dollars, have been lost to Iran or Iranian proxy groups since the start of the current conflict in late 2023, with at least 24 being downed over Iran and 15-18 being downed by the Houthis in Yemen.

@21aar_show @GunterFehlinger I dob't doubt it but it would be nevertheless be fun to watch play out. Although jokes aside, I am not sure how people expect countries like Japan to conjure the money for a militarist rearmament plan

@Leopix3 @GunterFehlinger Smells like insta sovereign bankruptcy when most Asian countries are heavily indebted.

THE FREE WORLD WILL DEFEND TAIWAN.
WHATEVER IT TAKES.
Taiwan is the frontline of freedom in the Indo-Pacific.
If democracies stand united, peace will prevail.
If dictators think the Free World is weak, conflict becomes more likely.
Europe, America, Japan, Korea, Australia, Canada and NATO allies must make clear:
Any attack on Taiwan would have massive economic, technological, financial and strategic consequences.
Peace through strength.
Deterrence through unity.
Freedom through courage.
Security • Strength • Unity = Victory

@21aar_show @GunterFehlinger Why not, a SEATO + CENTO part 2 would be fun, if anything else

@GunterFehlinger I love the fact Europeans can barely comprehend the Taiwan issue.
France is the only consistent European supplier of weapons/miltech to Taiwan 😆 the UK is historically a China appeaser for all the right reasons.

@C_hoffmanni That'd require a proper industrial policy in the US and that's never gonna happen
English
You’d think the US at anytime in the last few decades would look at their suzerainty and just steal Taiwan’s microchip tech. Biden tried to and only stole chips that were already outdated.

Correct. Who gives a shit about Taiwan.

@bichigten1228 @AZL_enjoyer @AdunaicMolester Sadly Dante is writing 80 years after his death (and his failure in imposing a stable order in Italy is one of the reasons why the poet is mad in the first place)

English
@AZL_enjoyer @AdunaicMolester He means the HRE emperor going down to Italy and beating up the various city states. In this whole passage he is really mad at the emperor for having given up on doing that

@Majmunspiuni3 The most deserving people on the receiving end of FPV sadism. I just with Hezb edits were less professional and more mean tbh
English
@Abdulaziz4__ @imp_navigator IDF is never ever sending 3-5 men infiltrator groups to take positions like they do in Ukraine
English
@Abdulaziz4__ @imp_navigator Strategy is constrained by local situation in Leb. Spaces are tight and IDF want local force supremacy to occupy ground, which means troop concentrations are unavoidable
English
Lebanese Hezbollah showed the footage with strikes of FPV-drones against Israeli Iron Dome launcher, and Israeli troops, who evacuated both the damaged launcher and a neighboring one from this position. IMHO this is first footage with attack FPV-drone against Israeli SAM system.

@DasVivo86 @Majmunspiuni3 "Competency" has always been a shortening concept to not have to explain and question the underlying mechanisms of the issue in war (same as "corruption" in governance). Ofc it's lazy that's the point
English
@Majmunspiuni3 No disagreement but that’s a decision beyond actual competency which so many these types base opinion on
English
Lets just laugh at Jack Murphy a little... Good when it comes to understanding US Military - Clueless but still worlds beyond most other US SOF Community
@Majmunspiuni3 might be a fun retrospect to eventually come back to

It’s all larp. Bolsheviks were larping the Paris Commune which was larping the 1848 Revolution which was larping the French Revolution which was larping ancient Roman’s. And they were larping idk Achilles or some shit

The first time I found myself in a group of communists singing the international I cringed, hoped it’d be over soon, and wished we had mass politics instead of a niche subculture that sings 100 year old LARP songs. This isn’t about what makes us feel good, it’s about revolution.

It's not about horror. This is the end of the alibi: you can no longer pretend the invader was a "liberator" when the camera captures a predator who suddenly realizes he has become the prey. Every frame is a receipt for a life wasted in the service of a delusion.

@gayest_tone Drone warfare is horrific because it's too personal. It's not like wars are necessarily more deadly than they were before, but now everyone gets their deaths edited into a snuff movie with shitty music and published on telegram

These guys don’t really have an answer to a large number of people finding much of drone warfare to be inconceivably horrific so all they have is “you’re too stupid to understand war”
durandalcomplex@durandalcomplex
i don't think 99% of people (like this) are even equipped to understand war as a concept to be honest. war should be a banned topic on the internet
