@jenny2x4 @Kukukachoo62 It’s not a “PR move” it’s just how the us Air Force has operated for decades.

@Kukukachoo62 This was entirely a PR move to justify and get people to celebrate the US military and the Iran War and it is clearly working based on many of my comments. We have all the money for military propaganda.

I could suspend my disbelief reading The Martian for the mars survival stuff but not that every facet of the US government immediately agreed to spend all their $$ to save the life of one guy, which made me think the author might live in some privileged bubble. And, well…
Fandom Pulse@fandompulse
Project Hail Mary writer Andy Weir on social commentary in books: "I dislike social commentary. Like… I really hate it. When I’m reading a book, I just want to be entertained, not preached at by the author. Plus, it ruins the wonder of the story if I know the author has a political or social axe to grind. I no longer speculate about all possible outcomes of the story because I know for a fact that the universe of that book will conspire to ensure that the author’s political agenda is validated. I hate that." "I put no politics or social commentary into my stories at all. Anyone who thinks they see something like that is reading it in on their own. I have no point to make, and I’m not trying to affect the reader’s opinion on anything. My sole job is to entertain, and I stick to that." "To that end, I also don’t talk about my personal political opinions publicly. I don’t want readers to even know, honestly. I don’t want that in the back of their minds as they read my stuff." Is this why he has the #1 sci-fi movie in decades?

@MacrossMX @AlexHollings52 I hope every last A-10 gets thrown into an incinerator
English
@AlexHollings52 Everytime the USAF wants to retire the A-10, the US Army always comes in and ask if they can have it instead, prompting the USAF to rescind any calls for retirements.
For the USAF, their greatest foe is not Russia, China, Iran, or the USN, but a resurgent USAAF.
English
The US will literally pay for A-10 sex change operations instead of just letting them retire.

@NickStillHere If it’s only crazy for a girl, where you guys getting your bodies from? 🤨

15-20 bodies is crazy as fuck for a chick lmaooooo

Never being in a relationship at 30+ years old, but having more than 15 to 20 bodies is crazy

@glasscrafta @chrisschmitz @andynovy It hasn't even been a day, they are obviously not going to shove camera in his face while pulling him out of enemy territory. What do you mean by general? An American or an Iranian? I tend not to believe the Iranians after they've claimed to sink the Abraham Lincoln 100 times.
English
@noahgamingfan2 @chrisschmitz @andynovy The 17 was staged by a general. I’ll try and find the link. Also, if you thi that the US military wouldn’t post one pic of the rescued operator after such a sinful mission you are dim. Who said anything about parading? Man you guys
English
That location confirmed by @andynovy is just 50km from the City Centre of Isfahan, a city with about 2.2m Inhabitants.
The IRGC cant prevent an enemy ad-hoc Airfield half an hour drive from one of the largest cities in country.

English
@glasscrafta @chrisschmitz @andynovy Do you want them to parade the pilot around on social media the second rescue him? You complain about there being no proof for his exctraction and then repeat a baseless claim like "killed 17 and the pilots". Do you seriously believe the Iranians without proof?
English
@noahgamingfan2 @chrisschmitz @andynovy I wish they had rescued the pilot. I’m just sick of the lying from th US gov. There is no evidence that they rescued the pilot at all.

@glasscrafta @chrisschmitz @andynovy Incredible how upset a "conservative christian" is about a major american success to the point you're willing to believe complete nonsense made by people who hate "you" (though you're probably not what you claim to be)
English
@chrisschmitz @andynovy Lol Iran destroyed 7 aircraft and killed 17 people and the pilots. If you believe anything from The US you must be super vaxxed
English
@daniel9990_ @CryptoCyberia It's quite hilarious that russian equipment standards have reached such a poor level that twitter experts have been able to gaslight themselves into thinking they're POWs being killed for whatever reason.
English
@CryptoCyberia The endless videos of them blowing up unarmed pows with drones for show.
English
While it is nice to see this, I have seen dozens of video of them just executing the surrendering troops.
Astraia Intel@astraiaintel
Extremely powerful footage from the archives. A Ukrainian FPV operator spares the life of an unarmed Russian enemy who was abandoned to his fate by his comrades, instead dropping him water and a note on how to surrender. This is peak humanity.
English
@YukiAkizuki @ghost_vana46 I'd be interested to see evidence of a single F-35 being destroyed in combat.
English
@ghost_vana46 Meanwhile SU-57 has never been destroyed in combat and has air to air kills, can't say the same for the F-35
English
>Watch a video about plane generations
>"F-22 and F-35 are both combat proven"
>No mentions of Russian and Chinese 5th gen planes
>Comments filled with psyoped "Only USA uses 5th gen" and "there are less than 10 SU-57/J-20 built" ameriboos
Its so tiresome, man.
English
@sibongile_sq @jvgraz It’s weird how there’s videos of them hitting Palestinian Arab cities with cluster warheads and blowing up random empty cars but I’m sure that’s safe
English
@jvgraz Those are likely civilian buildings and Iran is very clear about its rules of engagement. They don’t target civilians directly like Israel, obviously in a war situation there’s bound to be civilian casualties and collateral damage.
English
Iran's strategy has been working this far, so I'm hesitant to criticize, but...
Why does Tel Aviv still have a skyline?

@vapetrees @FungibleWorker Tier 1: $50 to hit an empty field
Tier 2: $100 to get intercepted and leave debris over a random part of the desert
Tier 3: $150 to have 15 IRGC soldiers obliterated when the missile detonates after it gets hit by a hellfire missile on the TEL
Tier 4: $500 to cause minor damage
English
@FungibleWorker Tier 1: 50$ rocket US forces in Iraq
Tier 2: 100$ Drone a US soldier in skryscraper in Dubai and you might hit the jackpot with Ian Cheong, a sheik or OF model
Tier 3: 150$ Ballistic to Haifa
Tier 4: 500$ Hypersonic to Telaviv(if a pedophile doesn't die, 100% money back)
English
Iran should let you sponsor a missile with a customized message. Could be a good fundraiser for the reconstruction of destroyed schools.
Israel Foreign Ministry@IsraelMFA
🇪🇸 Pedro Sánchez - Iran’s mullah regime is thanking you by putting your words on the missiles it fires at civilians in Israel and the Arab world. How does it feel knowing your face & words are on these missiles? Keep in mind that Europe - including Spain - is within range of these missiles.

@RCownie @AndrewPerpetua They were not in “territory controlled by an adverse party”
English
@AndrewPerpetua "2. Upon reaching the ground in territory controlled by an adverse Party, a person who has parachuted from an aircraft in distress shall be given an opportunity to surrender before being made the object of attack, unless it is apparent that he is engaging in a hostile act."
English
Helicopters are flying artillery pieces. If a 2A65 Msta-B crew lost their gun and tried running away and got killed nobody would blink. But a helicopter pilot gets killed and people shed a tear. There is no difference. Morally or legally.

RAM kits are now sold with one fake RAM stick alongside a real one to create a performance illusion
The fake stick looks real and fills the second slot for a clean look, but it does nothing for performance.
AI data centers are expected to use about 70% of the world’s DRAM supply by 2026.

@MichaelHel90769 @Bossmustangfan @PackageGuy747 @CynicalPublius @KrisGoldsm79107 Did you know that technology, doctrine and rules of engagement have changed since Vietnam?

@Bossmustangfan @PackageGuy747 @CynicalPublius @KrisGoldsm79107 Same logic that prevailed prior to and during Vietnam, it does still happen.
English
For years I have been reading about how the F-35 is a stupid, vulnerable boondoggle.
Yet it appears to me that the system is flying over airspace covered by the most advanced air defense systems Russia and China have to offer, yet it is completely invisible, untouched, and accomplishing all of its assigned missions with zero aircraft losses.
Any of you current or former US military fighter jocks have thoughts?
English
@TheBayatollah @facsimileglib @XJosh There’s zero evidence that they’re actually targeting us soldiers in hotels and aren’t instead just hitting random shit like usual

@Coliban @MenchOsint We all remember when the Moskva sank the other two thirds of the US navy in the glorious battle of the Black Sea. Or something like that.
English
@MenchOsint "One third of the U.S. Navy fleet deployed for Iran."
It looks like things will probably turn out the same for the US this time as they did in Ukraine...
English
One third of the U.S. Navy fleet deployed for Iran.
Ian Ellis@ianellisjones
After the Gerald R. Ford Carrier Strike Group transits the Atlantic, the U.S. will have 2 aircraft carriers and 15 destroyers (plus a few subs) to work with across combatant commands. Approx. 33% of the deployed U.S. Navy fleet is represented below, which can carry 600+ TLAMs.
