The Texas panhandle is probably the worst place I've driven through. Miles of scrubland in every single direction.

hobbesmaster posted:Delusional is a strong word. Russia’s fancy stuff doesn’t work right now and the Stark attack, while almost 40 years ago and not an AEGIS destroyer, showed that USN ships might not be as good as “advertised”. Literally every shred of evidence since the Gulf War has borne out that most US weapon systems, though insanely expensive boondoggles, generally work extremely well. Our strategy might be terrible, our goals nonsensical, and our conduct questionable, but the weapons themselves are generally both reasonably functional and terrifyingly lethal. AEGIS certainly has a pretty stellar combat record as far as I'm aware, and has shot down every missile and/or airliner pointed at it since the '80s. e: Like, sure, there's always the chance that something goes wrong and the missile gets lucky. But it's certainly not something I would bet on. I certainly wouldn't say the guys who shot the missile are "delusional" — they may very well have expected the missile to get shot down. But I would have to question their intelligence and foresight if they were seriously anticipating any other result. Acebuckeye13 fucked around with this message at 07:07 on Jan 15, 2024 |
