Without These 5 Jets, America’s Beloved Aircraft Carriers Were Useless
Sebastien Roblin, The National Interest - 1 minute ago
*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, Americas* To quality for this list, the carrier-based-fighter in question must not only have been effective, but also had significant operational impact. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *This capability came at a price, however. Despite boasting air-to-air capability, Harriers were firmly subsonic jets that would be at a grave disadvantage dueling contemporary supersonic fighter jets. Furthermore, the trickiness of its VTOL engines has caused Harriers to suffer extremely high accident rates. Designing an airplane that can fly at high speeds luggin...
Iran Won't Build an 'F-35' Anytime Soon
Sebastien Roblin, The National Interest - 1 minute ago
*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, * Certainly, Iran has reasons to want a stealth fighter. It just won't happen for a very long time--if at all. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *Iran may eventually design an actual flying jet plane resembling the mockups it passed off as the real thing—but even, such a plane would likely merely be a testbed and showpiece. By now, one can consult the experience of the United States, China and Russia to show what a real stealth fighter program would entail. There can be such a thing as posturing too hard. Iran’s aviation industry has accomplishmen...
Yes, the F-22 Would Fight in a Major War Against China
David Axe, The National Interest - 1 hour ago
*David Axe* *Security, Asia* [image: https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?id=tag%3Areuters.com%2C2020%3Anewsml_RC2RLI9VYSE2&share=true] The F-22 is even, arguably, better than the F-35. *Key point: *The F-22 is still one of the finest stealth fighters out there. It would play a vital role in winning any conflict. The U.S. Air Force is rewriting its war plan for the Pacific, the flying branch's new commander for the region told reporters at the Pentagon in late November. Gen. Charles Brown, commander of Pacific Air Forces, said he wants smaller groups of U.S. warplanes to rapidly ...
How NATO May Have Made Russia’s S-400 Air Defenses Obsolete
Peter Suciu, The National Interest - 1 hour ago
*Peter Suciu* *Security, Europe* The S-400 surface-to-air missile system has been touted as a stealth hunter, and as one of the most advanced long and medium-range surface-to-air missile platforms in use today. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *The fact that the S-400 was designed to track stealth aircraft was a key sticking point in U.S. relations with Turkey, which has sought to adopt the Russian-built platform while also seeking to be a partner in the F-35 stealth fighter jet program. The United States, and other NATO partners, saw this as a serious conflict—one that could ...
World News Briefs -- October 23, 2020 (Evening Edition)
War News Updates Editor, War News Updates - 1 hour ago
Covid testers in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. America will face a ‘continued public health challenge’ beyond February, the study, published in Nature Medicine, warns. Photograph: Bing Guan/Reuters *The Guardian*: *US nears daily Covid cases record amid warning of 500,000 deaths by February * A study says coronavirus is on course to claim 511,000 by 28 February as cases surge in many states, particularly upper midwest The United States on Friday was approaching a record for the number of new daily coronavirus cases, as a new study warned that the pandemic is set to cause half a million ...

Hmm… America Keeps Getting Attacked By Nations It Hates In Ways Only The CIA Can See
Caitlin Johnstone, Caitlin Johnstone - 1 hour ago
I’d like to tell you a folktale. It’s called “The Emperor’s New 9/11”. Once upon a time there was an Emperor who loved war and military expansionism. He was always searching for new ways to instigate military conflicts without losing the support of the international […]
How Would Russia Wage War on the NATO?
Sebastien Roblin, The National Interest - 2 hours ago
*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, Eurasia* [image: Wikimedia Commons] Russia’s fondness for the “god of war” dates back several centuries, and according to the guide, Russian tactics still emphasize artillery as a decisive instrument for destroying enemy formations, while maneuver units handle mopping up the survivors. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *The AWG’s handbook is in attempt to understand an adversary’s warfare from the outside, rather than reflecting how the Russian military perceives its own tactics. Such an effort will inevitably be colored by analysts’ cultural biases...
Speedboats and Missiles: Meet Iran’s Small (but Dangerous) Navy
David Axe, The National Interest - 2 hours ago
*David Axe* *Security, Middle East* [image: https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?id=tag%3Areuters.com%2C2012%3Anewsml_GM1E8C81HFZ01&share=true] Tehran could cause a lot of harm if it wanted to. *Key point: *Tehran's navy is very low-tech. However, their missiles could still cripple America's large warships. Armed speedboats belonging to the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy habitually harass U.S. Navy and allied vessels in the Persian Gulf, in particular in the strategic Strait of Hormuz that connects the Gulf to the open ocean. Now those boats have farther-flying missiles, ...
Check This Chinese Drone Out (America Has Almost an Identical Looking One)
Kris Osborn, The National Interest - 2 hours ago
*Kris Osborn* *Security, Asia* Once again, a Chinese weapons platform looks nearly identical to a U.S. system built several years prior. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *The U.S. Navy FireScout is a vertical-take-off-and-landing maritime drone able to launch from a Littoral Combat Ship or DDG 51 destroyer. Not only does the U.S. FireScout conduct forward targeting and surveillance, but the platform has also been configured with special surface-oriented countermine technologies. Once again, a Chinese weapons platform looks nearly identical to a U.S. system built several years...
Polar bear research on hold in Western Hudson Bay due to COVID-19 restrictions
Hifast, Climate Collections - 2 hours ago
Originally posted on polarbearscience: After spring polar bear research was cancelled in Western Hudson Bay (and pretty much everywhere else) this year because of Covid 19 concerns, it now transpires that fall research is out as well. Travel restrictions implemented by government departments and university administrations (not the health department) apparently mean fall programs to…
YouTube confirms it will immediately ban all videos that question the “official” vaccine narrative promoted by the corrupt WHO and vaccine companies

Lance D Johnson October 21, 2020 (Natural News) YouTube just confirmed they will work with the World Health Organization (WHO) to remove any videos that question the official vaccine narrative promoted by vaccine companies. The Stalinist WHO has become nothing more than a Big Pharma front group, advancing the interests of vaccine makers.

sprawling complex of Institute for Experimental Military Medicine outside St. Petersburg.

Full of Sound and Fury, Signifying Nothing
jurassicpork, Welcome Back to Gotham City - 4 hours ago
(By *American Zen*'s Mike Flannigan, on loan from Ari.) *I*t's amazing to realize in retrospect that in the five presidential debates since 2016, the Debate Commission only found just before the fifth and final one the remote control and the mute button on it. Maybe it was under the couch cushions and a thick blanket of pet dander with a long-forgotten Gummi bear attached to it but, better late than never, right? Donald Trump's performance at last night's debate in Nashville was comparable to Rudy Giuliani's little law partner in the new Borat movie- Flaccid. As Keith Olb...

It Must Be Embarrassing To Be Drop-Kicked on International Television
Diogenes Sarcastica™, Diogenes' Middle Finger - 2 hours ago
Before the smug “journalists” at CNN accuse others of peddling Russian disinformation, perhaps they should take a closer *look in the mirror.* During Thursday’s evening broadcast of “Amanpour,” a CNN International show hosted by Christiane Amanpour, the host suggested that the emails regarding Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden and his son, Hunter, are “Russian disinformation.” It didn't go well for Ms. Amanpour...... Pretty audacious of CNN -- who spread actual Russian disinformation w/the leak of the dossier set up briefing in Trump tower to subvert the peaceful transition...
Doctors vs. Doctors: Who’s Telling the Truth?
AdminM, Medical Kidnap - 3 hours ago
There's a civil war raging across the U.S. today, pitting medical doctors against other medical doctors. And it's not because they are on opposite sides of the political spectrum. It's because they are on opposite sides of the truth. This is not a new war, of course, as those of us in the Alternative Health media have covered these medical topics for many years now. The Wall Street Billionaires, many of them part of the Pharmaceutical Industry, control the corporate media giants to put forth a unified message they want the public to believe, that benefits the goals and purposes of ...
Republicans Continue Blocking A Pandemic Relief Bill, Even In The Face Of Massive Election Losses
DownWithTyranny, DownWithTyranny! - 3 hours ago
*230,000 Deaths by Chip Proser* Despite Trump's protestations at the debate last night that the pandemic is going away, yesterday, according to NBC News, set a record as the number of new coronavirus cases rose to over 77,000, topping the previous record in July. "Nationwide, 77,640 new cases were reported for the day, up from the previous record of 75,723 on July 29. Dr. Jay Butler, deputy director for infectious diseases at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said Wednesday afternoon that the agency has noted a 'distressing trend' in which coronavirus case numbers ...
Can the F-35 Actually Fight in Close Quarters Combat?
David Axe, The National Interest - 3 hours ago
*David Axe* *Security, Americas* [image: https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?id=tag%3Areuters.com%2C2019%3Anewsml_RC1AA5BC8D00&share=true] The F-35 lacks a dogfighting ability despite the lessons of history. *Key point: *During the Vietnam War, the Air Force learned that dogfighting still mattered. And yet, today, the F-35 was not built with that in mind. The aerial dogfight was not supposed to happen. On May 20, 1967, eight U.S. Air Force F-4C fighters were patrolling over North Vietnam when they spotted as many as 15 enemy MiG-17 fighters a short distance away. Fog and the MiGs...
Russia’s New 125-millimeter Sabot Tank Killer: Just How Dangerous?
Sebastien Roblin, The National Interest - 3 hours ago
*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, Europe* It has some problems. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *Thus, while Russia may finally have a 125-millimeter sabot round that can threaten Western main battle tanks at range, only its handful of new T-14s tank are capable of actually using it. Optimistic claims that the 2A82 gun could be retrofitted to numerous older T-90s and T-72s so far appear not to have materialized. The Soviet Union’s huge tank fleet was a cornerstone of its power during the Cold War. However, events in the 1991 Gulf War called its superiority into question. On Feb...
Why North Korea’s Military Doctrine Is Stuck in the 1950s
Michael Peck, The National Interest - 3 hours ago
*Michael Peck* *Security, Asia* [image: https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?id=tag%3Areuters.com%2C2020%3Anewsml_RC2QFJ9JDA7V&share=true] Here is what happened during the war and why little has changed. *Key point: *Pyongyang would still like to conquer Seoul. But could it really do so with a massive conventional attack? Normal military doctrine says that an attacker should outnumber the defender by at least three to one at the point of attack. But since when is North Korea normal? The Korean People's Army (KPA) believes that it only needs to amass a two to one edge on the battle...
The Most Advanced Version of the F-15 Is A Game-Changer
David Axe, The National Interest - 3 hours ago
*David Axe* *F-15, United States* It costs half the cost per flight hour of similar fighter aircraft and delivers far more payload at far greater ranges. *Here's What You Need To Remember:* Boeing's F-15QA, the most advanced version of the F-15 Eagle, is a modern take on an old design. The most advanced version of the F-15 Eagle fighter has flown for the first time. On April 14, 2020, the first F-15QA took off from Lambert International Airport in St. Louis, where Boeing workers build the iconic, twin-engine fighter. The F-15QA is a variant of the F-15E, which itself is a two-s...
The B-29 Bomber: It Went to War for America and Russia?
Sebastien Roblin, The National Interest - 3 hours ago
*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, * A legendary weapon with a forgotten story. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *Ultimately, the B-29 proved an adaptable platform in both American *and *Soviet service. The Soviet experience also proved, yet again, that few technological gaps are so great that they can’t be bridged by a little reverse engineering among friends. Few aircraft have as great a mark on history as the B-29, the pencil-shaped American four-engine bomber that dropped the atomic bombs over Hiroshima and Nagasaki. What’s less well known is that the Soviet Union had its own B...

The Washington Post has published an article, “How Escalating Climate Change Fuels California’s Infernos,” that asserts false claims about climate change without providing any meaningful supporting evidence.
