    Iran Super Thread- Merged

    SAVAK was one of the biggest causes of the Revolution. Murder, Rape, torture more torture and lots more torture, as well as assassinations out of state. SAVAK actually taught torture classes to some of the neighbors. Took them a few days. There are some interesting stories about how...

    System Upgrade: Please Report Problems

    Pretty sure some (large number of) asshats in St Petersburg is to blame.

    Hybrid Warfare and Sabotage

    You lost me. As what I took issue with wasn’t some localized disruption. Because at the end of the day Russia re-routing and isolating parts of occupied Kherson should not be shocking. You claimed that in the event of hostilities that Cross Border Internet Traffic would stop...

    Infantry Vehicles

    Muddy Bog stuff, I’m not sure 28t will work. I agree with you on the neither Fish nor Fowl, and I’m sure it’s isn’t Filet ;( Having seen a variety of disastrous swim attempts in peacetime, I think it’s sheer insanity in a combat under fire concept. Maybe it briefs well. So to me, the...

    Infantry Vehicles

    I see the role for the 40-50t HIFV Track I see a role for a <15t swimmable 8x8 (LAV-25, LAV 2.0 series vehicles) They lost me at the 28t swimming track. I do see a role for a 3rd type of armored vehicle, but that would be a BvS10 <10t swimmable track - mainly for northern mobility.

    Canada to Spend $5.0Bil on AEW Aircraft (Saab Globaleye)

    I am a big of directed buys - providing it makes sense. What should never happen is buying something solely to buy it. I am an E-7 fan, simply as I think it is a better platform for Canada’s size and location. That said, with NATO going GlobalEye, the platform isn’t going to be a sniveling...

    Iran Super Thread- Merged

    The IRGC focused on a mosaic defense system. RUSI had some good podcasts last month - and while some info is stale — the point still exists is no one is really charge, and no one trusts anyone. The IRCG has tried to rebuild C2 lines, but often only to allow the USAF or USN to take out...

    German Election 2026

    My point was more that it isn’t nearly as clear cut as some suggest. She is no doubt a Nationalist -- authoritarian leaning. It’s a very weird situation, and the Venn Diagram’s on this are confusing.

    Political impacts of Ukraine war

    Pretty much anyone flying into Russia is asking Ukraine not to blast their path.

    Iran Super Thread- Merged

    I meant follow where the pieces went. If you want to hammer someone’s S&T folks, easy way is to give them a breadcrumb.

    Iran Super Thread- Merged

    👀 Anyone want to put odds on if that was intentional? I mean some of the earlier Predators got crashed just to ‘follow the money’

    Hybrid Warfare and Sabotage

    Unlikely. You conflate information transmission with information storage in the above comment wrt microdots. But you are also wrong on transmission aspects. Ah yeah Omni directional analog Morse code for the win Pardon? I will assume you mean HumInt direct source. The article is...

    Technically he’s right, as Congress hasn’t declared war.

    Canada moves to 2% GDP end of FY25/26 - PMMC

    They however have their own limitations. There are areas where the CAF and RCMP would be better suited

    TKMS Type 212CD (Victoria class replacement megathread)

    Given First year Ice can be up to 2m thick in flat spots -and potentially have ridges 6-10m I would think that yes a submarine probably would be concerned about that. You seem to be be cherry picking portions of @Stoker ’s post and taking them out of context. Again sort of an out of context...
