Just How Tough Is Navy SEAL Training?
*Frumentarius* *Navy SEALs, United States* The physical preparation alone will not guarantee you success. The mindset is the thing. You have to get your mind to that place in which quitting is an impossibility.

Just when the bright southern California sunshine dries you out, and you feel that blessed warmth that you remember so well from before you started Navy SEAL training, the BUD... read more
Could the U.S. Establish Air Supremacy In a Conflict With Russia?

The Sig Sauer P938 Is a Perfect Concealed Carry Weapon
*Richard Douglas* *Firearms, United States* This pistol was created with the purpose of being a concealed carry weapon. Its size complements carry phenomenally well. *Key Point:* You can basically carry the P938 at any location and still have it completely concealed, including pockets. Although I would say, if I only have six rounds to work with, I’m definitely going for a revolver. Have you ever wanted a small, subcompact 9mm pistol? I didn’t. Or at least I didn’t know I did. While I love a good 1911, I don’t usually seek them out as concealed carry weapons. All of mine are usua... read more

Conrad Black: ... The real problem is that his opponents, in their desperation to be rid of him, so severe was his assault upon the complacent bipartisan and political establishment in Washington, that they have committed a sequence of grievous improprieties themselves. And instead of enjoying the advantages of opposition, they must now try to justify their misconduct in elevating what is already clearly one of the very most dangerously incompetent administrations in American history, bearing comparison only with those of Franklin Pierce and James Buchanan that led directly to ... read more

Why the Soviet Tu-22 Bomber Didn’t Stick Around
*Caleb Larson* *Russian Military, Russia* This is ignoring early versions of the aircraft, which had a nasty tail strike tendency when taking off. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *The initial versions of the bomber flopped. However, these issues were largely addressed and the latest version of the bomber is pretty decent. The Tu-22M proved itself as a capable bomber, but its predecessor—the ill-fated Tu-22—had a harder time. Here’s why. *First Supersonic Soviet Bomber* Though the Tu-22 had some characteristics that appeared to be beneficial, at least on paper, it was not pl... read more
This Critical Technology Is Needed for the Sixth-Generation of Fighter Jets
*Alex Hollings* *Stealth Fighters, * Many believe the defining characteristic of the next generation of fighters will be a networked constellation of support drones like the XQ-58 Kratos Valkyrie leveraging a system like the Air Force’s Skyborg project. *Here’s What You Need to Remember: *The current front-runner program for first of the 6th generation fighters is America’s NGAD, or Next Generation Air Dominance program. It aims to field an air superiority replacement for America’s incredibly capable–but increasingly rare–F-22 Raptor. DARPA’s effort to incorporate Active Flow Con... read more

Sunday morning music
Very tired this morning. Miss D. and I returned late yesterday from a three-day road trip to Kansas City, where we attended the memorial service for one of her cousins. It was bitterly cold (in single digits in KC - yesterday morning was in the low 20's there, while our home town in Texas was in the 70's! Bit of a contrast . . .). The roads were largely free of snow and ice, but the other vehicles were kicking up a lot of salt brine from the surface treatment - our car looks a bit like a saltcicle in parts! Car wash, first thing Monday morning . . . Anyway, without much ti... read more

B-52 Bombers Could Soon Have a New Mission
*Peter Suciu* *B-52 Bomber, * The B-52 is one versatile platform. In addition to dropping bombs and firing missiles, it can lay sea mines. *Here's What You Need to Remember:* The B-52 Bomber is one of the most versatile fighters ever developed. Dropping mines to deny access to an area to warships is one way the B-52 will fight future wars. The U.S. Navy issued a Request For Information (RFI) last month to determine which government contractors might be capable of designing, manufacturing and testing maritime mines that could be deployed at long ranges from the air. While the Nav... read more

The self-absorbed left
Amber Athey: ... It’s no secret that people who seek political power usually have big egos, but AOC’s level of self-absorption is truly impressive. She doesn’t believe any criticism of her is legitimate because her detractors are blinded by her hotness. Critics are either hopelessly in love with her or intensely jealous. She is the Capitol Hill version of Regina George, who cries “Why are you so obsessed with me?” when presented with evidence that she was a bad friend to Janice Ian. Really, she is obsessed with herself. You don’t have to look far to see other leftist female poli... read more
