Open Comment Post. 29 June 22

The new Missile Marine rifle optic is ASS ugly. Anyone shot it?  I saw a review and they weren't blown away.

The EU/US and alot of the world is gonna be screwed on energy for at least another 5 years....

Why 5? Because Biden/Harris have another 2. IF a President with commonsense and not some "green" fanatic is elected then it'll take a couple of years to get energy production up to where it was and a bit more to meet the needs of the economy (assuming we don't have a massive recession that kills demand...which I expect).

GD Wins Army’s Mobile Protected Firepower Contract

Fucking awesome. The 82nd Airborne will now have more direct fire capability than the entire US Marine Corps. But the bright side is that the Marines can provide recon/counter recon for the Airborne to conduct the actual assault...with US Army Armor providing the follow on forces. Tell me the Stand-In-Force Concept isn't the road to irrelevancy...

Sidenote.  Will someone PLEASE tell GDLS that no one wants to see their contractors/workers/whatever.  We want to see the vehicle.  Next time get them the fuck outta the picture.

This Turk Defense Corporation is a master of public relations...

The publicity of their UAV performing well in strikes along with the increase in interest in their product probably is worth a few dozen of these planes. Well done and SMART!

AMX-50 (the real thing, not World Of Tanks)

US officials describe the stakes of ensuring Russia doesn't win in Ukraine as so high that they are willing to countenance even a global recession & mounting hunger.

What makes Ukraine this valuable? 

They are willing to kill let hundreds of thousands of people outside the warzone die from hunger/starvation/war/destabilized nations/rampant crime & destroy the economic future of millions for Ukraine? 

MAKE THIS MAKE SENSE!!!!

Royal Marines of 40 Commando conduct helo-casting training in the Bristol Channel.

Looks like progressives hate Latino conservatives too...


Someone stated that the accounts noted above were "small". Ok. How about this from a trekkie?

Issues with comments section...

Disqus comments is having problems (as usual). I know many here are into them but I am SO tempted to go back to just using Google comments. I'll wait and see how long this lasts but prepping you just in case the move is necessary.

The modern bipartisan crusade to "make the world safe for democracy" has been a completely failed experiment.
