Honestly with the GM ISV and LUVW, I’d rather see Roshell work with GM on a Senator based on the heavier GM truck frame. So some sort of common parts for the system.

Worth the watch.

Saab license required. Agreed You first need pull out of the Convention - that is named for wait - oh yes the capital city... Agreed Again licensing issues need to be worked out. GM has their LUVW which is a "real" Milverado - unlike the earlier CA ones. I see the appeal I would like to...

Realistically we had it GWOT - just not in the availability we do now. You can whack a mole the launchers (both system and operator) to infinity - and it really doesn't break the system. Anecdotally if you remember the rockets in Afghan, there was more than one site that was repeatedly hit -...

Or POTUS has the Marines land on the Iranian coast…. I’m 50/50 on that

Happy Targetting Day….

https://fortune.com/2026/03/09/us-oil-reserve-60-percent-full-despite-trump-pledge-to-refill/ 416M Barrels is still a bit to take the edge off. https://www.eia.gov/petroleum/gasdiesel/ There are economies far worse off than the US that will be affected deeper if this continues.

I think most of that spun off @Eaglelord17 's rather misplaced assumption that just because one is a net exporter that the world market doesn't affect pricing. @brihard pointed out that it was privately held/publicly traded companies that sold to one another -- they have the mandate to get the...

I long ago stopped wondering why the USG constantly misses the mark to inform the world. After being on TF McCall in Iraq, I kept waiting for John McCain to drop the news about the degree of Yellowcake enrichment, the enrichment equipment, the Chem and Bio stuff seized from Saddam - the...

Well with any lucky Ukraine can apply more permanent "sanctions" on Russian oil...

I'd suggest that while there are some strategic thinkers assisting the Administration - no one in the Administration understands (or cares to understand) how to communicate with anyone who isn't in (the very edge of) their base.

Agreed. However keep in mind was published March of 2025, from 2024 collation and honestly OBE at time of printing. There has been releases since from DIA, CIA, as well as Congress and the WH of declassified information showing how far away Iran was from having enough fissile material...

Yes, it’s pretty shoddy. The segment on Iran is weak and unfortunately the unclass report can’t/doesn’t delve into the nuclear program in great (or any ) depth.

The real question will be if those cells decide to do anything, or if having a cushy gig in the West is a better life. As I posted above, the IRGC really polished and expanded the Shah’s network — both even less concerned about international law and relations than the Russians are, and...

Well not good news

Well he snagged a few of their tankers and apparently threatened to sink at least one sub — so I’m not so sure he’s wanting to top up Russian coffers. Russians already have nukes — so they are a different kettle of fish.

@Underway and other have done the math earlier this thread on SubSafe and why it is a 4:1 ratio for operational boats. IIRC it goes something like 1 Sailing 1 Readying 1 Return ‘short DWP’ 1 longer DWP/refit. It’s boats not bodies. From my understanding you may get away with 3.5 crews /...

https://www.cbsnews.com/live-updates/us-iran-war-israel-stock-prices-down-oil-prices-up-despite-trump-reassurance/ Doesn’t sound like he plans on ending it anytime soon. Looks like we are planning a ground incursion wrt taking over the straights.

I mean if your going to pay us to defend you, We probably don’t want your pilots.
