Why the Battle of Samar Against Imperial Japan Was So Surprising
Sebastien Roblin, The National Interest - 20 hours ago
*Sebastien Roblin* *History, Americas* [image: By U.S. Navy photo NH 90603, Public Domain, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=4410627] The Navy was caught off guard, but it still managed to win. *Key point: *Nothing about this fight went as planned, with the Americans falling into a trap. However, America had six escort carriers in this battle and Imperial Japan had none. In the pre-dawn glow of October 25, 1944, four tubby TBF Avenger torpedo bombers took off on a routine patrol from the *USS St. Lo*. She was one of sixteen small escorts carriers in Taskforce 74.4 ...
A Modern Nuclear Arsenal is Crucial for a Stable Nuclear Deterrence
Steve Cimbala, Adam Lowther, The National Interest - 20 hours ago
*Steve Cimbala, Adam Lowther* *Security, The Americas* Although the arms control community is focused on the opportunity to cut the nuclear deterrent, the President has a responsibility to listen, as well, to the expert advice of his uniformed military advisors who must plan for, operate, and deploy nuclear and conventional forces. President-elect Joe Biden recently indicated that he would review the nation’s nuclear deterrence strategy and weapons modernization program, focusing on reducing their role in national strategy. The review will also look to reduce funding for nuclear ...
Could the Finest Nazi Battleship Really Have Had a Chance Against America’s Best?
Kyle Mizokami, The National Interest - 20 hours ago
*Kyle Mizokami* *History, Europe* [image: https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?id=tag%3Areuters.com%2C2012%3Anewsml_GM1E85I0MID01&share=true] America's Iowa-class battleship would likely wipe out the Bismarck. *Key point: *America's battleships were large and powerful. But they also had radar-guided guns. Despite the vast scope of the Second World War, the navies of the United States and Nazi Germany fought few, if any, direct surface engagements. By the time of America’s entry into the war the Royal Navy had already sunk or neutralized the lion’s share of Hitler’s *Kriegsmarine*,...
The Big Six: How the Army Will Defeat Russia and China
Sebastien Roblin, The National Interest - 20 hours ago
*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, Asia* The new generation of hardware is coming. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *To avoid the earlier dramatic failure of “super programs” like the Future Combat System, the Army plans to adopt off-the-shelf solution where possible, and operationally test numerous projects before deciding which merit the funding to ramp up to full-scale development and production. The U.S. Army is at a crossroads as the Pentagon is reorienting itself to fight a capable great power opponent after nearly two decades focused on counter-insurgency conflicts. Russia ...
Whoops: Once America Lost D-21 a Spy Drone in Soviet Russia
Michael Peck, The National Interest - 20 hours ago
*Michael Peck* *History, Europe* [image: By CIA - https://www.cia.gov/library/center-for-the-study-of-intelligence/csi-publications/books-and-monographs/a-12/images-and-thumbnails/ch8_2.jpg/image.jpg, Public Domain, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=9928913] Here is one of the more interesting Cold War stories. *Key point:* Not every spy missions goes right and drones can do the wrong thing. This is the tale of a spy plane that flew itself straight into enemy hands. In November 1969, the U.S. Air Force sent Russia an early Christmas gift. It was a sleek flying mach...
Why China Has Went All-In on Chinese A2/AD
Sebastien Roblin, The National Interest - 20 hours ago
*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, * Not all A2AD systems are as technically mature and operationally effective as they are made out to be. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *Undeniably, A2/AD weapons can threaten large areas and will likely shape operations in the regions where they are present. However, they cannot “shut down” access to a region by themselves, and their threat can be mitigated through appropriate planning using existing technologies and tactics. On March 7, 2019 defense analysts from the Rand Corporation told a panel, “In our [war]games, when we fight Russia and C...

Everone who has both a spine and a clue about politics is threatened and needs to fight real hard Donald Trump still had two weeks of his presidency left but the toxic Stalinist stuff pretending to be human beings already had enough self-confidence to ban his accounts at Twitter (his main tool to communicate with the world's most important politician's constituents), Facebook, Instagram, and elsewhere.

Controlling the Nukes: This Military Plane Could Easily Destroy the World
Sebastien Roblin, The National Interest - 23 hours ago
*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, Americas* The U.S. Navy’s placid-looking E-6 Mercury, based on the 707 airliner, seems particularly inoffensive, but that is a lie. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *The E-6 platform should remain in service until 2040 thanks to a service-life extension program and continual tweaks to its systems and radios. While the Mercury has demonstrated its usefulness as an airborne communication hub for supporting troops in the field, the airborne command post will be considered a success if it never has to execute its primary mission. In a military that op...

PA Pundits - International, PA Pundits – International - 23 hours ago
By Ronald Stein ~ Reducing America’s emissions (if that’s your thing) is a major goal of President Elect Biden’s platform, but it should not be implemented by “leaking” environmental degradation and human atrocities to foreign countries that are supplying the exotic minerals and metals to support green electricity. Biden has an opportunity to follow the […]

*Sebastien Roblin* *Game of Thrones, * The Game of Thrones episode "The Long Night" features the last stand of a fantastical medieval army against an implacable horde of White Walker zombies led by the chilling undead Night King. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *However, effective fighting forces learn from defeats and mistakes and institutes necessary reforms. Jon and Daenerys’ would do well to ensure their forces all act cohesively towards a common strategy; deploy their cavalry, infantry and artillery in a mutually-supporting manner; commit more effort to building defense-...

Woah: America Burned $1.5 Trillion on Making the F-35 Stealth Fighter
Sebastien Roblin, The National Interest - 1 day ago

The Revolution Will Be Televised
jurassicpork, Welcome Back to Gotham City - 1 day ago
So, MAGAts, how does it feel under that bus? You should've known something was not quite right when Ill Douche exhorted you to storm the nation's Capitol, saying he would be beside you from behind a protective, bullet-proof shield. Or when he *didn't* march beside you. But really, since you're just pathetic right wing voters who got all their news from Trump's late, lamented Twitter feed, how were you to know that while the rodeo clowns were busy warming you up for the head of the American Nazi Party, he was in a tent right off the stage serenely watching t...
