China's 'Advanced' Type 095 Submarines Could Leave America Behind
The National Interest - 28 minutes ago
*Security, * The U.S. Office of Naval Intelligence may have said it best, “the PLA(N) will progress to the Type 095 SSN, which may provide a generational improvement in many areas such as quieting and weapon capacity.” Sailors beware. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *Though Chinese naval advancement was initially focused on near-shore capabilities like smaller diesel submarines, shore-based missile defense, or fast littoral boats, China is now possibly capable of fielding a true blue-water submarine force. Despite many years as a strictly littoral force, the People’s Liberatio...

David Axe, The National Interest - 28 minutes ago

Too Superior? The F-35 Has No True Competitor
David Axe, The National Interest - 1 hour ago
*David Axe* *Security, Americas* [image: https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?id=tag%3Areuters.com%2C2015%3Anewsml_TM3EBA91LQF01&share=true] The F-35 is so good it has created a unique problem for the military: it has no one to practice war against. *Key point: *A lack of peer warplanes means that the Air Force is using F-22s against the F-35. In addition, other solutions have had to be found to ensure pilots can get trained. It’s no secret that we are skeptics when it comes to the F-35 Lightning II. The new, radar-evading, “fifth-generation” warplane is years late, over-budget a...
America’s B-21 Stealth Bombers Will Do Far More than Drop Bombs
David Axe, The National Interest - 1 hour ago
*David Axe* *Security, * The B-21 could finally fulfill the A-12’s multi-role promise from nearly 30 years ago. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *By contrast, the Air Force insists that B-21 development is proceeding without any major complications. Of course, the B-21 program also is highly secret, meaning it’s impossible for outsiders to verify the Air Force’s sanguine claims. The U.S. Air Force’s new B-21 Raider stealth bomber could fly as early as 2021. And at least one Air Force general believes the new Northrop Grumman-made bomber could gain air-to-air capabilities in or...

Russia's Deadly T-90: The AK-47 of Tanks?
Caleb Larson, The National Interest - 1 hour ago
*Caleb Larson* *Security, Europe* The T-90 family focuses on tried-and-true technologies, incrementally improving them onto a compact, affordable platform. *Here's What You Need to Know*: T-90 and associated variants have been exported to Algeria, Azerbaijan, India, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Turkmenistan, Uganda, and Vietnam. The T-90 and associated variants are one hell of a tank — maybe the best in Russian inventories.

University of California Neurologist: People Questioning COVID Narrative Suffering from Brain Damage
Brian-Admin, Health Impact News - 2 hours ago
People who believe in so-called conspiracy theories about Covid-19 are actually suffering from “neuropsychological impairments,” says a neurologist, in what sounds more than a little bit like Soviet-era weaponized psychiatry. ‘Conspiracy theorists’ who refuse to wear masks and embrace lockdowns are the victims of their own scientific illiteracy, which has fundamentally damaged their brains to such an extent that they cannot understand the science of Covid-19, claims neurologist Bruce Miller from the University of California, San Francisco, in a paper published earlier this month in...

In his 1714 book *The Fable of The Bees*, Mandeville describes a society of bees which takes the collective decision to ground its way of life on the ideas of reason, morality, discipline, and honesty. Initially the bees seem to do well but eventually their culture collapses into a dystopia from which they never recover. The moral of Mandeville’s story is that in order to survive and thrive, a society needs not just the virtues but also a range of vices: the bonds of selfishness, envy, competition, mysticism, and exploitation. The book ends with these famous lines: Bare Virtue can't...
