POTUS has been a legit target for a long time, both to domestic and international actors.

China political circle is in disarray right now and with the death/disappearance of a top general, they might be reluctant to arm them right now/

I think we all got a blunt reminder at how effective a sub can be. That might lean the decision makers to who can provide the fastest.

Sri Lanka has a 12nm territorial waters, but the sinking was well within their EEZ . This is a 40nm radius from Galle, so she was sunk somewhere in that area. Hard to tell with open source what her intentions where. Whether to attack Diego Garcia or to head home? According to Wiki, the class can...

As I recall the UK did declare a certain area of the South Atlantic a combat zone prior to the sinking of the Belgrano?

Happened several times in WWI and II

When I was in, we had every vehicle on a tactical move manned with a air sentry, The C2 was the main weapon of choice.

There was a similar thing going on, different product though: https://railfan.com/canadas-shortest-short-line-calls-it-quits/

Yes if I get anymore Persian bakeries or restaurants I going get fat.

Roshel is the modern day armoured CMP. Start filling out the reserves with it, god knows they need the vehicles.

I don't really see how much more value the boxer version gives you over the truck version? I suspect the trucks ease of maintenance, road mobility, extra payload will outweigh any of the benefits of the additional armour. These will rarely if ever come under direct fire and will be targets by...

Some of that can be attributed to mid level meddlers who try to "protect and insulate" their bosses, often without direction and often to promote their own self-importance.

Yes the messaging from this administration is painful. I agree with what they are doing, just wish they just shut up and not drop the message ball.

You are correct, and I apologize and retract that claim. You did say: They all remember how bad his dad was . I inferred that to mean mass killings, so perhaps you can explain how the Shah's rule is worse than the Islamic regime? Your statement about coming out on the streets is wrong. The...

Crowds in the streets of Iran chanting for the Shah's return (Which can get you killed on the spot for), a huge diaspora also chanting for it. What Iranians see in him is a form of stability in what comes next. They want change, not civil war and not what happened to Iraq. The old Shah also...

I did signage in Farsi and Mandarin which is the two predominate ethnic groups in my recruitment area and I have two Farsi speaking officers which we used to good effect at a recruiting booth both for Navy League and Sea Cadets. Both groups have a somewhat negative view of military service from...
