Apparently beating out several competitors that earlier in the year were considered favorites to get the first COVID vaccine to market for distribution in the United States, dark horse favorite Pfizer Inc. seems to be the clear winner, announcing this week that their COVID vaccine is "90% effective," and that hundreds of millions of doses would be distributed before the end of 2020, pending an FDA emergency use authorization (EUA). Of course for those of us who do not follow the propaganda media, and understand that there is not even an accurate test for COVID currently in the mark...
Russia’s Status-6 Torpedo is a True Nuclear Doomsday Weapon
Robert Farley, The National Interest - 3 hours ago
*Robert Farley* *Security, Europe* Nuclear tipped torpedoes have considerable precedent from the Cold War. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *Nations as formidable as China and Russia, at the very least, have the means to develop weapons that will defeat or circumvent missile defenses, eliminating the umbrella of security that the United States has conditioned itself to expect. The Status 6 may not be that weapon, but it is evidence that Russia is examining any idea that might work. According to the latest Nuclear Posture Review, Russia is developing a new nuclear torpedo/drone...
A Nuclear Japan Would Have Changed the World
Robert Farley, The National Interest - 3 hours ago
*Robert Farley* *Security, Japan* In the long view, the decision on Washington’s part to curtail Japanese nuclear ambitions played out well. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *As the only victim of a nuclear attack, Japan’s domestic politics made a nuclear turn difficult. However, during the 1960s, the Japanese government actively considered the development of a nuclear weapons program. During the Cold War, the United States supported selective nuclear proliferation as a means of deterring a Soviet invasion of Europe. The Russians might not believe that the United States would...
What If America Had Gone to War Against the Soviets in Asia?
Robert Farley, The National Interest - 3 hours ago
*Robert Farley* *Security, Asia* War games conducted by the U.S. Naval War College during the Cold War reveal interesting insights regarding how a hypothetical showdown between the United States and the Soviet Union might have played out in the Asian theatre. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *Both the Soviets and the Americans had options in Asia. The strategic environment was far more fluid than in Europe, allowing a variety of different choices to disrupt and destabilize the opponent. This made the course of war far less predictable.

With the USS Akron, the Navy's Aircraft Carriers Went Airborne
Kyle Mizokami, The National Interest - 3 hours ago
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, * The ships were designed, like conventional seagoing aircraft carriers, to reconnoiter the seas and search for the enemy main battle fleet. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *Regardless of speculation, World War II was won without flying aircraft carriers, proving they weren’t a war-winning asset. The concept has lain dormant for decades, but recent Pentagon research into turning the C-130 Hercules transport into a flying aircraft carrier for pilotless drones means the concept is still alive and well.

That's especially true since most presidents are reelected,” Jonathan Krasno, professor of political science at Binghamton University, said. But history says it wouldn't be impossible.

Wonder Warships: Five Most Important Experimental Naval Vessels Ever
Robert Farley, The National Interest - 3 hours ago
*Robert Farley* *Security, * The Zumwalt joins a long tradition of experimental warships, vessels that often had more impact as technological marvels than as useful ships of war. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *Not every experimental ship works out. Because of their experimental nature, almost all such ships are superseded in short order by vessels that incorporate lessons learned. Nevertheless, each ship introduced critical new technologies and enabled practice, experimentation and refined design practices. Earlier this week the *Zumwalt** (DDG-1000) began sea trials*.
