@HunterStires @johnkonrad Our fleet is already much smaller than it used to be, and as I recall, we used to have several dozen Perry-class FFGs that were stupidly replaced by underarmed LCSs and instead of building cruisers we built 3 hugely expensive Zumwalt white elephants.

@johnkonrad That is the opposite reason why people have concerns about BBGX. Speaking for myself, I am concerned that it’s too large and expensive, is under-armed for its size and expense, and will result in a fleet that in aggregate is smaller, more targetable, and less survivable.

Universal rule: the more brutal and effective a weapon platform is, the more the “smartest guys in the room”™️ at the think tanks hate it. See: the recent DEFCON 1 PhD meltdown over Trump Class Battleships.

New to MilX? You missed the A-10 funding war, think tank establishment vs. “stubborn” warplane supporters. It was epic. I stayed mostly out, just suggested giving them to the Merchant Marine to protect ships. My take got laughed at THE hardest by the “experts” with PhDs.

Author and DJ Zakia Sewell is using British folk culture to challenge far-right nationalism. Sewell has journeyed around the British Isles exploring Britain’s folk resurgence for her debut book, Finding Albion: Myth, Folklore and the Quest for a Hidden Britain. Finding Albion builds on Sewell’s hit audio series for BBC Radio 4, which saw her seek out a different, more inclusive idea of “Britishness” beyond the usual national myths and symbols.

@Johnny_Joey The army would be more than happy to take them off the air force's hands. I say, screw Key West and grab them. You know the air force is never going to be their when the army needs close air support.

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.
Status-6 (War & Military News)@Archer83Able

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."

@MThomasOTF Mitchell wasn't saying anything that others like Douhet, Trenchard and other air power advocates were saying. It was a popular trend to believe air power would make ground warfare obsolete and put naval vessels at grave risk.

My allusion wasn't even about specifically airpower. It was about one officer with the guts to speak out against the entrenched bureaucracy and put both his name and career on the line to refocus the US military on warfighting. He saw what was coming and did something about it.
Alan@Alan7098

@ed_gethane @WPerry1151 @MThomasOTF I'm pointing out that analysis about the use of air power, at sea or elsewhere, is often misstated or misunderstood and sometimes rank propaganda. Stick your head back in the ground if you can't understand that.

🚨 BREAKING: 🚨The Maricopa County Board of Elections has come forward to issue an apology to President Trump, stating that elections officials in the county have now brought forth evidence alleging that then Secretary of State (now Governor) Katie Hobbs and then Speaker of the Arizona House of Representatives Rusty Bowers PERSONALLY ORDERED THEM TO DESTROY TENS OF THOUSANDS OF MAIL-IN BALLOTS FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP and to count the TENS OF THOUSANDS OF BALLOTS THAT WERE CAST BY ILLEGAL ALIENS FOR JOE BIDEN in Arizona's largest county in the 2020 election. This was "outcome-determinative fraud" by the very individuals who were entrusted to conduct, oversee and certify the election and Hobbs and Bowers are both alleged to have been on the payroll of at least 3 hostile foreign governments, The George Soros Open Society Foundation and The DNC in exchange for RIGGING the 2020 election in Arizona. Put simply, there is now IRREFUTABLE AND INDISPUTABLE PROOF that President Trump WON the state of Arizona in that STOLEN election out of the mouths of the very people who counted the votes. LOCK THESE TREASONOUS CROOKS UP NOW! 🇺🇸💪🏻🔥

Denmark was ready to blow up Greenland runways if the USA invaded. The Danish military sent explosives and blood supplies to Greenland in January as part of contingency planning for a US attack, as tensions with Trump escalated. 🇩🇰🇬🇱🇺🇸

Matching reporting by @CNN / @NatashaBertrand, I have confirmation that an F-35 stealth fighter jet was damaged during a combat mission over Iran. A CENTCOM spokesman said the pilot is in stable condition. CNN reported the fighter jet may have been damaged by Iranian fire. For now, CENTCOM is saying the incident is under investigation.

Europe calling Washington's bluff permanently rewrites the NATO power dynamic. France and Germany deploying elite units alongside Danish forces proved the European Union will actually mobilize over sovereign territory. The era of uncontested US diplomatic hegemony in the Arctic ended the second those allied F-35s loaded live ammunition.

A number of countries issue a statement saying they are ready to help ensure safe passage through Hormuz. They obviously see this getting very close to spiraling completely out of control. But let’s see what actually comes from this ….
