Why Russia’s MiG-25 Failed to Become the World’s Deadliest Fighter
Robert Farley, The National Interest - 16 hours ago
*Robert Farley* *Security, * It could have been a monster. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *Designed to shoot down a bomber that never existed, the bugbear of the MiG-25 helped spur development of one of the finest fighters to ever fly. It would provide a template for the MiG-31, which remains in service today with the Russian Air Force, and which will continue to fly for the foreseeable future. In the late 1960s, the USSR debuted what appeared to be the world’s deadliest fighter. The MiG-25 (NATO term “Foxbat”) could outrun any fighter in the air, and indeed any military air...

* Biden Wants to Roll Back Title IX Protections for Students Falsely Accused of Sexual Assault* Joe Biden is asking Department of Education officials to examine ways to roll back changes to Title IX enacted by former Education Secretary Betsy DeVos that gave college students accused of sexual assault some protection from being falsely accused. There was criticism of the rules, with some women’s groups alleging the rules were preventing women from coming forward to report sexual assault. The rules didn’t prevent anything. They only tried to restore due process to sexual assault cas...
Why Japan’s Attack on Pearl Harbor Was Decades in the Making
Warfare History Network, The National Interest - 17 hours ago
*Warfare History Network* *History, Asia* It all started with a Japanese attack on China years earlier. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *Japan relied on imports of raw materials and natural resources to survive. Rubber, tin, iron, and especially oil had to be imported for Japanese industry to function.

Why Russia’s S-400 Air Defense: Can They Take Down an Air Force?
Charlie Gao, The National Interest - 17 hours ago
*Charlie Gao* *Security, * Sweden says its capabilities have been overstated. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *Overall, the FOI paper presents good analysis by showing that the Russian A2/AD anti-air bubble is not as big as people might think. But they might be selling the S-400 system a little too short. Russia has had a limited form of CEC for decades, and the Tor is a formidable point defense system. In March 2019, the Swedish Defense Research Agency (FOI) published a report that alleges that Russia’s vaunted Anti-Access/Area-Denial (A2/AD) capabilities in the Baltic regio...
Call Arnold: Russia’s 'Terminator Tank' Are Getting 'Combat Ready'
Peter Suciu, The National Interest - 17 hours ago
*Peter Suciu* *Russia, Europe* It was only in 2018 that the vehicle was accepted for service with the Russian military and entered delivery. It isn’t a T-800 or T-1000, and it certainly didn’t come from the future, but Russia’s “Terminator” combat vehicles are getting combat-ready. The vehicles are now conducting cohesion drills with tanks and other armored vehicles at the Urals proving ground. The BMPT (Tank Support Fighting Vehicle) was first introduced more than twenty years ago but was never fully embraced by the Russian military. Based on how it performed at the recent exer...

Make Him Cry: Here’s Why America Must Go on the Offensive in Cyberspace
John Rossomando, The National Interest - 19 hours ago
*John Rossomando* *Cybersecurity, * Cyberattacks from the U.S. and its allies must be intended to sow the most social confusion and disorder as possible in the targeted societies. The SolarWinds and Microsoft hacks offer low-cost, high-yield attacks that harm the U.S. government and economy without bombs or troops. Cyberspace allows China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea to attack without any serious repercussions for themselves. The Biden administration must carry out massive cyberwarfare campaigns to make this so-called Gray Zone warfare hurt. But to be effective, they must aban...
Could the Falklands War Have Turned Out Differently for Britain?
Sebastien Roblin, The National Interest - 19 hours ago
*Sebastien Roblin* *Falklands War, Americas* Had Argentinian weapons functioned as intended, Britain's victory might have been bought at a much higher cost. *Here's What You Need to Know*: Great Britain, thanks to some luck, avoided big losses. The brief but bloody naval war that occurred in 1982 over the Falkland Islands, known as the Malvinas in Argentina, is typically viewed as a triumph of British naval power. A Royal Navy task force managed to beat off heavy air attacks to take back the South Atlantic archipelago from Argentine troops. For most of the war, a lone Argentine...
Strange: Aging Indian MiG-21s Fought Modern Pakistani F-16s (But Why?)

*David Axe* *Indian Air Force, Asia* [image: https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?id=tag%3Areuters.com%2C2020%3Anewsml_RC2Z8F9X4VEJ&share=true] Rumor has it that New Delhi was keeping their best aircraft in reserve during recent clashes. *Key point: *The MiG-21s may have had some upgrades, but they still were not the most modern. What was India thinking? The Indian air force defended its decision to send old MiG-21 fighters up against much more modern Pakistani F-16s during *recent aerial skirmishes*.

The Tavor is one of their finest. Israel builds its own high-tech military equipment, such as tanks, missiles and drones. Not bad for a nation of just 8.5 million people living in a state the size of New Jersey. But Israel has also proven adept at designing rifles. Perhaps its most famous firearm is the legendary U...

Disgrace: Are These the Worst American Generals to Ever Lead a Fight?

*Michael Peck* *U.S. History, Americas* [image: https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?id=tag%3Areuters.com%2C2018%3Anewsml_RC1BE25EA630&share=true] Not every leader is great, but some are actually pretty terrible. *Key point: *The U.S. Civil War was especially full of incompetent generals. Some of them were bad at taking risks, whereas others were reckless. It would be nice if all American generals were great. How might Vietnam or Iraq have turned out if a George Washington, a Ulysses Grant or a George Patton had been in command? Alas, call it the laws of probability or just cosmi...

But its current leadership appears to think relations are just fine. Atticus has obtained an email from Tim Davie, the Beeb’s director-general, to David Clementi, then chairman, shortly after the former met the PM in the Commons last September. His verdict: “It was friendly,” he cooed. “We landed ...
