Regarding our industrial base, the ship building/repair facilities is a serious problem, especially as the Navy adds weight to the Pacific Fleet to counter Chinese expansion. F-22's are being retired. F-15's being replaced with newer F-15EX. Both Navy and Air Force are still evaluating designs for next generation air dominance fighter. The Navy's reliance on the F-18 platform in its' many designs and it's short legs continues to point to a serious organic tanker problem. So far, the Navy has responded to the problem with shorter flight time cycles which causes the carrier to be placed closer to dangerous weapons systems we have not shown an ability to defend against, ie., hypersonic missiles. As an aside regarding industrial capacity, in the recently gamed Taiwan conflict, the US ran out of its' more effective weapons, long range missiles and other "smart" munitions in two weeks. Not good. Edited May 2, 2023 by sherpa

He merely enriched his entire family peddling his influence to foreign adversaries. Nothing burger And then go to trial for it 2 times not just once . Isn't the American political influence on the justice system great !! Edited May 2, 2023 by T master

They export so much talent. They should be a top player but they’re government might be more corrupt and dysfunctional than ours. I wouldn't be surprised if there is something behind researching/deploying Covid and China trying to rectify their demographic problem. I have to think India will get their act together at some point. With a projected population of over 1.6 billion people.....wow, just wow! 1

Yeeeeeaaaaahhhh. Not good. Given how much penetration of the Russian military and government our intelligence apparatus has supposedly achieved... I'm wondering why clones of Kinzhals aren't rolling off a factory floor somewhere. 1 hour ago, sherpa said: As an aside regarding industrial capacity, in the recently gamed Taiwan conflict, the US ran out of its' more effective weapons, long range missiles and other "smart" munitions in two weeks. Not good. Well in-line what Ukraine has taught us, if we bother to learn. I don't know how long it is until domestic microchip production ramps up, but it can't come fast enough.

Alright. It's a scary looking 5-10 years, maybe longer. But to paraphrase a Ukrainian paratrooper, we are so ***** lucky our enemies decided to be so ***** stupid right now. Hopefully it's enough.

Biden is Mentally Fit Posted July 25 Posted July 25 26 minutes ago, BillsFanNC said: Dumbasses like roundy and nedboi were leading the charge laughing off the Chinese spy balloon event as no concern. Why? Because a democrat held the presidency. That’s deep thinking right there. No need to go into roundy’s theories on balloon deflation - though I am more than happy to do so. They’re something to behold. v/r jdhf 1
sherpa Posted July 25 Posted July 25 Soviet and Chines aircraft flying in the ADIZ, and being intercepted, is meaningless. We have other concerns.
