America Owes its World War II Victory to the P-38 Lightning

Warfare History Network, The National Interest - 6 hours ago

*Warfare History Network* *Security, World* One hell of a plane. *Here's What You Need To Remember:* The P-38 did not have a “joy stick” for the pilot, but something more akin to a steering wheel. Its propellers spun in opposite directions. This, of course, meant that the torque created by one propeller was negated by that of the other. Thus the pilot would not have to struggle against torque as he accelerated the aircraft for takeoff. In 1939, the P-38 broke a speed record for transcontinental flight. Contrary to most other planes designed and used in World War II, Lockheed’s P...

Sebastien Roblin, The National Interest - 6 hours ago

*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, * t remains to be seen whether the U.S. withdrawal from the Iranian nuclear deal, which can already be linked to an escalating proxy war in Syria, may also see a resumption of the shadowy covert war between Israel and Iran. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *It’s hard to deny that the campaign used tactics that would be labelled “terrorism” or “murder” in the West were they waged against Israeli or American scientists engaged in weapons research.

When that core is perverted by the absence of light, the blackness of doom and darkness and despair, you are not clothed upon with divine glory and therefore you cannot invoke it.

*David Axe* *Security, * To even try to sink an American flattop, you first must hit it. That's not easy. *Here's What You Need to Know*: The story starts in 2005.

But a U.S. Navy test in 2005 proved that even if you hit the...

Could Iran's Naval Mines Stop the U.S. Navy in a War?

*David Axe* *Security, Middle East* Numerous, cheap mines could slow America's large, high-tech warships. *Here's What You Need to Know*: The Islamic republic has the potential to drop thousands of mines in key waters. In the event of war with Iran, the U.S. Navy’s small, aging force of Persian Gulf-based minesweepers would struggle to locate and disarm Iran’s underwater mines. The consequences for U.S. military operations, not to mention world trade, could be severe.

How accurate are Covid PCR tests?

Norma, Collecting My Thoughts - 7 hours ago

"So, even if the test has a very high specificity of 99%, when the virus stops being present at pandemic levels in the population and starts to decrease to more endemic levels, you quickly get to a point where most positive results are false positives, and where the disease seems to be much more prevalent than it really is. As you can see, the less prevalent the disease is in reality, the more likely the test is to generate a false positive result, and the less useful the test is as a method for figuring out who actually has covid. And the less prevalent the disease is, the more p...
