If you remember these then you're old as fuck!

I do not understand how people can live in big cities in the US

No joke. It is so easy to find all kinds of vids showing big cities in the US looking as bad or WORSE than 3rd world countries. The only question is whether or not we can get things back .... dare I say it ... to the good ole days? At least to a point where you don't feel like you need a Kevlar/stab proof vest, a Glock 45 with extra 33 round magazines, a first aid kit and a team of goons with you to watch your six!

What amazes me is how can things have been allowed to get this bad.

Surely people living in those cities see how batshit stupid things have gotten.

Surely they want to see this nonsense end.

The terrible thing is I don't see any action to make things better, just an acceptance of things as they are.  My fear is that this will spread from the cities to suburbs and then rural areas unless its contained (the bigger fear is that if it spreads then the pushback will be dramatic in ways that politicians and my fellow citizens won't like).

So much I don't know about "radar cross section"

So so so much I don't know about this.  But it's said that the beginning of wisdom is knowing how much you don't know, right?

Anyway if you follow the Tweet many readers were wondering about the radar cross sections of other aircraft...from Predator UAVs to B-1s and others.

I'm kinda wondering about the new super UAVs like the one Turkey is producing and especially the one that the Aussies are working on.

One thing occurs to me though.

Ukraine is showing one thing that most air power experts refuse to come to grips with.

We talk about how "the tank is dead".  How missile artillery is now the new king, but no one is talking about the absolute pounding that airpower on both sides took and how it quickly disappeared from the battlefield.

Unmanned high performance fighters and even bombers almost have to be the future of peer conflict.

We just can't make enough pilots to last even a relatively short duration war.

Check out this vid by Tucker on Nixon & the Watergate break-in

Lots of claims in this one and lots of easily verified info too. If this is true then GOD DAMN! The US public has been being played for a long time.

22% of India's citizens view the US as their greatest threat...

Well you can pretty much stick a pin in the idea of adding India to a list of nations that we can count on in an alliance against China. India will go their own way. The British really did soil any potential relationship with the West.

Argentina to procure Brazilian made Iveco Guarani 6x6 armored vehicles

I really expected this vehicle to have much greater export success. Wonder what's holding it back.
