FuzzySlippers posted:it is possible America already lost WW3 when it blew it’s load in weapons and soft power in Ukraine without success, failed to restrain Israel, and then failed to recognize the need to start fixing anything broken about America to change course. If there isn’t any political will to fix the broken arms industry how is it going to even present a credible defense of Taiwan much less succeed? Man the Nazis turning to wonder weapons in a desperate ploy to prevent their inevitable defeat sure we're something. Not like America would ever do that though

It's wild because to me, a novice in naval warfare, it seems like the dominant technology has always been the one that can accurately hit at the longest range. The era of the battleship was defined by large naval cannons that could hit from over the horizon, the era of aircraft carriers was defined by carrier groups carrying hundreds of planes fighting fleets a hundred miles away. Ship and submarine based guided missiles seem like the obvious next step in that evolution, something that can be fired from hundreds of miles away in mass, from relatively cheaply produced ships. But nah let's build a loving railgun that will destroy itself after 4 shots and have to be replaced

luv 2 b brought into the third world war by the staffers pretending to be joe biden approving the strikes written up by the staffers pretending to be the secretary of defense. luv this weekend at bernies hellhole that is run by decrepit husks piloted by ivy league legacy admissions who still haven't learned that other people actually exist, it's not that they're surrounded by highly convincing A.I. loving owns. e: at what point does this become a world war? If the U.S. declares war on Iran, where the scope is considered to be the Russia/Ukraine war and the U.S. + Allies vs Iran + allies war? If, after the U.S. and some/all of Nato declare, they begin to mobilize their economy towards war? If other factions in the region join the war? the merging of these potential wars into a collective conflict? some combination of these? though considering "world war" is just a word, just a category that we put particular wars into, I guess this is a pointless question.

fizziester posted:Source: CNN .... wasn't the whole point of funding the Ukraine war to bleed Russia's ability to fight a war for the next decade, at least according to the hawk wonks? I'm not saying that to defend it, that's a monstrous way of looking at the world, but if your goal is to bleed the enemy then wouldn't you want to do a simple cost benefit "is giving Ukraine the funding to fix my moldy lovely barracks worth annihilating the last of my ability to keep a basic trained volunteer force in case of war?" Are any of the wonks looking at Israel's performance, seeing what a bunch of unenthusiastic assholes given guns are failing to accomplish, and deciding that maybe, just maybe, cutting a bit more from the QoL of people in the military maybe isn't the best idea? If it wasn't going to result in however many thousands more people dying in Ukraine for Lockheed's war profits then I wouldn't even care

On Saturday, the US conducted five self-defense strikes on three mobile anti-ship cruise missiles, one unmanned surface vessel, and one unmanned underwater vessel in Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen, US Central Command said.

Hatebag posted:the osprey was ordered because of the failures of operation: eagle claw, the mission to extract american hostages from iran in 1980. that mission failed after delta force murdered some fuel smugglers and then flew straight into a haboob, disabling 3 of the 8 helicopters involved, and then everyone left in a huff. but the osprey intakes have killed dozens of marines because their air intakes didn't have adequate filters so if they suck in a bit of dust they immediately crash The osprey fills a vital roll in ensuring that there is always a chance to move up in rank so that you don't get drummed out of the service

NASA is actually #1 in space USA!" comments from boomers and it's like. Man. You have not been keeping up on current events. Companies spent decades shifting all of their production to China as part of a general trend to reduce all costs, which included using lower quality materials and in general cutting the design lifespan to cut costs. People then started mistaking "low quality goods coming from China" with "china only makes low quality goods," and now you have the above. In truth, the US will lose WW3 also it took me too long to figure out why china wasn't getting hit by the spell check despite not being capitalized. I assume that it's china dishware.

the algorithm managed to get me to click through to one of the OSINT-adjacent accounts, but it's interesting https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QX68_FZl8UE Ukraine has been using basically drone speedboats to great effect over the past, what, year? This is something that is probably well known in the ukraine thread that I don't really read, but in the context of modern sea warfare it's interesting. The video talks about how a combination of "it being night time" and waves helping to hide the speedboats from radar help the drones get up to Russian ships relatively reliably, which seems like its something that is going to cause a big doctrinal shift over the coming decade or two if countermeasures aren't developed. I can guarantee that if China/Russia/Iran don't have equivalent systems already they're seeing how effective they are, along with drones in general I assume that the US has these drones, that's gotta be where Ukraine is getting them from, but do they have defenses against them? Does anyone have defenses against them? They're oddly reminiscent of the Millenium Challenge where the general used suicide speedboats to great effect. now I just have to clear this guy's video from my history so I don't get anything more from him
