Being the military aid to President Kennedy was hell

You can tell by this conversation that Gen McHugh (at least in my eyes) was totally unaware of what was going on, had no control over whoever committed this sin but is taking his ass chewing like a champ. One other thing. Apparently fraud, waste and abuse has been a problem in the US military for a VERY long time.

This dude was the ultimate FAFO

Again I wonder what was he thinking...

Its spooky as hell to watch a drone hunt down an individual soldier

This is crazy. Watching a drone chase down and kill a soldier. The craziest thing? Its not the battlefield that has me shook. Its what could come to the streets of ANY major city. Power lines? Gone by one drone by some crazy. Power stations? Same. Water treatment plants? Police Station? Police Units? Fire Stations? Fire Trucks. Public Officials? The list goes on. Terror is about to go on a meth binge once the weird ones figure out that one cheap drone can cause massive mayhem. The battlefield problem will eventually sort itself out but how do you solve the issue in the civilian world? I'm generally against bans but banning the sell, manufacture and import of ALL drones might be the only solution...and then you create a black market where even ma/pa will probably want one.

Vid claiming that this NATO ant-tank rocket tears the head off the instructor. Never even heard of such a catastrophic failure (NSFW)

Z-XX attack Heli

 

We can hate the Chinese practice of "copying" Western, and by that I mean US weapon systems. But it is an effective practice. We take the lumps by working out the kinks and they get the fruit of our labor free of charge while slightly improving on it.

So how do you beat them at their own game?

Recapture the inventiveness of the past and do upgrades of our equipment and instead doing the work and tossing it away we actually go for it.

Our biggest problem?

We're always looking for the next big thing.  We're always looking for transformational technology and that just gives our future foes time to catch up.

Best example?

The F-35.

If we had simply done upgrades to our existing fighters with the widgets and trinkets that have gone into the F-35 (to include engine upgrades), I contend we would be in a much better place with regard to our fighter programs.

We wouldn't be waiting another 10 years after having the plane in development and underperforming production for the last 30 years.

You get the general idea.

We're letting the perfect destroy the simply outstanding.  Time to put an end to the non-sense, get our minds right and get serious about the defense of our nation (that includes the border).

"Creepy guy" @ gym saves woman from being choked by weights while benching

I'm a caveman.

I gotta be a caveman cause I don't get this trend of women wearing damn near nothing to the gym and not expecting guys to look.

The videos of OnlyFans girls going to the gym in revealing ass gym wear and getting pissed cause guys are looking is LEGION.

I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THE ANGER!

I have smart readers.  Will someone explain this trend to me cause I really don't get the outrage.

He was shooting and moving but in the end it was communicated that shooting was a bad move...

Funny but not funny. I have to wonder what he was thinking would be accomplished doing that. I do believe that permissive DA's are causing alot of unnecessary mayhem. Rumor control says that if we were locking up the 5% of the bad guys that do this type of thing (that 5% are the violent criminals) that crime would diminish greatly. 

Mind you that many would view mandatory minimums barbaric, but to those people I say take a hard look at Singapore. There are benefits to enforcing public standards in a manner that would seem ruthless to Americans. 

We've become way to lax.

The funny thing is that we've seen the thing that works but abandoned it.  What is that thing?  Broken Glass Theory.  Look it up.  It's so simple that I dare say its elegant.  The results of its implementation is astounding.  Communities nationwide should try it.

PLA H-20

Project Dynamo is doing good work but it stinks of SOCOM/CIA involvement & I would bet is getting support from them

I heard an interview from the founder of this outfit on a podcast called "Eye on Veterans". Pretty good interview I must admit but one thing stood out to me. There board of advisors. It absolutely reeks of SOCOM/CIA involvement! Check out there webpage here. I guess it makes sense though. You have an administration that doesn't want to be seen as putting US boots on the ground so you have to use someone. I guess a homegrown "rescue outfit" (reminds me of that Stallone movie...forgot the name) that can go where others in uniform can't.

When I said that guy was in for a rough ride, I understated things...Russia's FSB is putting the wood to his ass...

If you know you know. Example. Whenever the Marine Corps talks about a course being "rigorous", that usually means its gonna be a savage series of kicks to the nuts. I kinda did the same when I said the terrorist captured by Russian Security Forces was in for a rough ride. Totally understated the misery this bastard RIGHTFULLY deserves. This dude is probably on the verge of begging for death and the sad thing is that while he's getting it bad from the Security Forces its gonna zoom to levels that are on the other side of barbaric once he hits a Russian prison. They will put him in general population after they squeeze him for every ounce of information he has and then he will die a horrible death behind bars. The same would happen ANYWHERE on this planet after an attack like this. Its why the US supposedly built SuperMax Prisons. The worst of the worst go there to be protected (or so says the propaganda). Anyway, the good book says to forgive and forget. I don't think the Russians are reading those words at this moment.

How did I miss this? Germans & French use helicopters to knock down UAVs/Missiles off the coast of Yemen

I've kinda wondered why we never developed a rotary winged UAV with sidewinders and AMRAAMs to act as "outer screens" or pickets to knock down missiles/uavs etc...Give those long endurance rotary winged UAVs to a destroyer, let the helicopter uav have a radar off a decommissioned fighter that links up with the one on the Burke and you have an early warning anti-drone system that would shake the foundations of hell...well until counter measures are developed but certainly good enough for the mud fight the Navy is involved in.

Yeah, the terrorist that Russian Security Forces captured are in for a VERY rough ride...

An innocent man you would feel sorry for. This scum? Do what you must is my opinion. Word is they've captured a total of 11 (at the time I'm writing this), good hunting boys...GET THEM ALL. Oh and for the Russiaphobes, Ukrainian hawks and everyone in between that would go for ANY govt hunting down terrorist. Whether a country is friend or foe, we all should be able to untie against terrorists.

Damn! Are the Russians doing their version of a Linebacker II on Ukraine? Another big strike inbound

Read a post where there was much crowing about how Russian strikes had dwindled to nothing just a few weeks ago. Well it looks like that was the calm before the storm. I have to wonder. We've talked about supplying Ukraine with all kinds of weapons (the latest and greatest being the German Taurus missile), but what about anti-air? We didn't have many Patriots and I don't think the Europeans have many CAMMS. So could we resupply even if we wanted to? Oh and with the Republicans caving so hard on the budget despite Biden still having a wide open border and the Republican voters being pissed as fuck (much talk about why they send them to Washington if they won't even fight...the calls to shut down the govt until they close the border was legion) has me wondering what the intel on this fight is at the moment. We won't know till long after I'm dead but I'm betting at this moment in time shit ain't as good as they're saying.
