This is the dirty little secret that US car makers don't want known. Chinese cars are better, cheaper and just as reliable as ours are....that's why they're keeping them out of our markets

Elon Musk and Telsa would be out of business in a nano second if Chinese electric cars were sold here (yeah I know Telsa is sold in China but it's the American label that does it). As far as Ford, GM and others? They'd get smashed into the ground. What has me spinning is that everyone talks about free market competition yada-yada but in real life? NOPE! What has always been the conservative pitch? Let markets decide? Not applicable when it comes to cars and that's smashing US consumers. Great for auto unions but not for most.

The Royal Navy as we knew it is dead. It had a good run though...the USMC feels your pain!

Australian Combat UAV comes to America

I thought it was just an Obama administration thing, then I thought ok Biden is of the same ilk so they're doing it too. But the Trump admin with this tilt to Dept Of War from the Dept Of Defense has me spinning and I guess I'm the only one annoyed. Why did I bring this up? Because of the recent shift from UAV to UAS...the same nonsense with UFOs to the whatever they call it. Rebranding means you have nothing new! Just spicing up the old shit to make the bureaucrats feel good.
