KAAV-II

NO WAY IN HELL you can tell me that isn't the EFV without the expensive/exquisite tech jacking up the price and making it basically useless. They take our scraps because we (in this case the USMC) is looking for leap ahead tech instead of evolutionary steps. We're seeing it with drones especially ground unmanned vehicles (who remembers the CRUSHER from long ago) while we keep looking for wonder weapons instead of getting gear into service and upgrading it with tech improvements as we go. THIS IS FRUSTRATING!

This went beyond simple law enforcement. This was a struggle to survive...

Oh my God. Segments of both populations are being radicalized...

 

I fear peace might not be possible if children on both sides are being radicalized...

U.S. Army Reveals First Designs of Two XM30 AI Infantry Fighting Vehicle Candidates Replacing Bradley

I don't know. The Lynx seems so freaking big. No commonality with the AMPV that's just entered service and is production now. I'm biased but just should have Americanized the CV90 and be done with it. Could have had a fighting vehicle and apc all in one (turreted and non turreted versions). I wonder if this was more about the industrial base than practicality.  At this point if its about practicality then the GDLS system wins easily.  The amazing thing to me about this whole thing?  In the age of drones, hell even before that, you have IFVs with much bigger profiles than tanks.  There is something wrong with that.  Was adding a large caliber gun to apcs (to make IFVs) worth the squeeze when it comes to a combined arms team?

This Chud the builder story is interesting...

This Chud dude. Man! Don't know cause I wasn't there but two narratives (from what I can tell) are floating around. He said some racist shit, talked about killing black men and found one to ice. The other is that he said the shit, was attacked (or something to that affect) by a black man and defended himself. Either way I never heard of the guy before but apparently he has a following. What's interesting is that he is a bigger celebrity now. Additionally except for his supporters I see very to damn near support for the guy that got killed. Something is way off with this thing but I can't put my finger on it. One man is dead, another is in jail and facing serious time in prison and only the fringe seems to be locked on to the story. Weird.

Interested in drones? If you are then you MUST check out the US Army's ODIN website!

 

HERE

The S. Koreans are building a click and paste USMC Expeditionary Fighting Vehicle!

Story here.

Geez man.  If that isn't damn near a click and paste copy of the cancelled USMC EFV then I don't know what it is!

Sad fact and I didn't glob onto it at the time.

Ya know why we wound up with the ACV.  A non-tracked amphibian that WILL (already has) gotten hung up on the beach?

Because we had one Commandant that was pushing his "air centric" solution for amphibious assault, a brief return to sanity (partial) and then the next Commandant basically saying fuck amphibious assault we're gonna be a sense and make sense outfit.

Meanwhile, no other Marine Corps in the world is abandoning the mission they're simply adding missiles to their formations (they don't have a US Army, Air Force and Navy to provide them with long distance strike) and staying in their lane of focus.

Seeing how fast the S. Koreans move on armored projects I would bet that this beast will be in production by at least 2033 if not sooner.

Consistency matters.  The modern day Marine Corps has jerked into pieces trying to anticipate what future warfare will be.  We've been inconsistent and its hurting us across the board.

New concepts of operation pulled out of asses ain't the way to go.

Kiev just got hit hard. IRBMs and drones...

Yeah it looks like Sudan's Army bagged a UAE Rafale with a Turk drone firing an air to air missile. Is this a first?

Readiness drill at the US Embassy in Venezuela?

Ok. I guess we do kinda "control" that country. Can't imagine us doing this unless we did!

Did a drone just kill a 4.5 gen fighter???

THIS BEARS WATCHING! I HAVE NOT BEEN IMPRESSED BY THE AIRMANSHIP OF UAE AVIATORS BUT TO BE SHOT DOWN BY A DRONE????

Trump makes another threatening post. At this point he sounds desperate for a deal

Ok. I've tried to be patient. I've tried to imagine that there is some type of plan in the background but now this? After other similar announcements? Dude sounds desperate. He damn near telegraphed the punch a day or two by saying a strike on Kharg island was iminent. I can see the shoot from the hip style for the domestic audience but internationally I think he should rely more on Rubio and the creatures in the State Dept (yeah I know they hate the US but they talk pussy so they'll be welcomed). Long story short? Say less. If we're gonna hit them then lets fuck'em up and be done with this madness.
