We're going to need more missiles...
Ukraine confirms interception of over 140,000 aerial targets since 2022
Ukraine’s Air Force said it has destroyed more than 140,000 aerial targets since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion in February 2022, including over 2,000 Kh-101 cruise missiles and roughly 44,000 Shahed-type attack drones. The figures were released in andefence-blog.com
Hopefully "Key Sovereign Capability" #2 from the DIS will kick into gear soon:
Ammunition - Common Ammunition; Battle-Decisive Munitions; Small Arms; Missiles and Bombs
DARPA agrees.
The US is burning through expensive missiles. DARPA is looking for cheaper ones that can be built in days, not months.
A Pentagon research arm wants missiles built faster as the US confronts costly weapons, limited stockpiles, and the demands of high-intensity war.

A strong family connection between the Zionists of Odessa and Crimea and the State of Israel.
I'm not sure there is much to choose between the two when it comes to the Mossad.

"In three requests for information published on Tuesday, DARPA asks companies how to make that technology easier to produce and scale. The RFIs reflect a broader push inside the Defense Department to move away from the complex, highly engineered systems the military has traditionally favored."

Odessa has a fascinating history. The ethnic mix pre 1914 was pretty cool. The extensive Greek history/population back then was extensive.
Ethnic cleansing has been going on a lot over the last 125yrs throughout Europe and the Middle East.

I have also read a few of Isak Babel’s books over the years.
I enjoyed his writing of the Red Cavalry’s drive to Warsaw in 1920 as he’s best.
If I had a nickel for every time you referenced queer giraffes in this thread, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s odd that it happened twice.

Look, with the relatively small number of giraffes in the world, I'm just happy that two queer giraffes found each other.
