I do. Fuck Pakistan; they’re right up there with Iran on the list of POS countries that deserve far worse than what they’ve actually received.
-
They ripped the lid off, now they have to fully finish it. They need an end state like Japan in WW2 - complete demilitarization, confiscation of all war material, etc. Iran cannot have any capability to project power outside its borders. Hopefully this is also a catalyst for the Iranian people to rid themselves of the horrendous regime they’ve been under for the last ~45 years.

Between manned C2ISR and other tech, manned loses every time (in the context of full war with PRC). “Lose” defined as either literally lost, or mission ineffective. Much easier to succeed with other tech (not to say it’s indestructible, can’t be degraded/denied, etc.) than manned. It’s simply the world/near future we live in, at least in PACOM.
-
Not saying it is, but space/UAS/other tech are substantially more effective and survivable/easily replaceable than manned C2ISR in a war with the PRC. I’m not even talking about losing people, I’m purely talking about persistent C2ISR capability that manned assets simply cannot provide.
-
Problem is none of these manned platforms are survivable if WW3 kicks off. UAS constellation and space are the only viable long term solution (speaking specifically to maintaining capes we need whilst in a shooting match with the PRC).

Initial Pilot Training and Future Pilot Training

Too bad, guess another bro got the GO lobotomy. -
Realistically manned AWACS has zero utility in the PACOM fight, assuming full blown kinetic (and non-) hostilities. IBS, UAS, etc. were needed yesterday to fulfill the Tac C2 mission in that war.

Freddy is a smart dude who was a solid sq/CC - I hope he hasn’t strayed from that path. He’s also very data driven, so if objective data supports the shit show claim, at least old Freddy would do something about it. -
Just a couple of bat shit crazy chicks fighting over who gets to suck Michael’s (I mean Michelle’s) dick. Nothing to see here.

If it’s in good faith (you’re trying, just T-38s/fighters aren’t in your cards), the unit will generally try to help a guy find a heavy unit willing to take them. This usually works out. If its SIE, then the unit can retain you in another career field, release you, or see if there’s another unit who wants to take you for a non-rated job.

Not required, it was crystal clear what he was talking about for anyone who has the capacity to listen.

So you heard it, but did not listen to it - there’s a difference. To address this single point you (and that article) have cherry picked out to try and use as some beacon of “mental faculty loss,” Trump was talking to the cadets about the importance of momentum - finding it, keeping it, and if you lose it, recognize that and pivot. He used an allegory of a businessman he knew who lost momentum, made poor decisions whilst doing so, didn’t recognize it early enough, and thus he basically tubed his life. It was long winded (as Trump can be) and could have been shortened with the same allegorical effect, but the valid message in the allegory is clear…unless one wants to be a politically-motivated hack and try to completely misrepresent it by cherry picking a couple words and talking about it without any context. Trump is a loud mouth and showman, we all know that, but along the lines of public speaking and mental faculties, this speech was 1000x better than Biden or Harris could have given. And that’s not so much a compliment to Trump as it is stating how incredibly bad the other options were…but I digress.

Nice ludicrously leftist hit piece you referenced. I read the whole transcript - laughable to conclude this is something akin to Biden’s mental implosion. Yep, it’s got Trump flair in it, but his speech is a pretty average political leader speaking at a grad ceremony speech. He actually says a lot of good things and addresses many reasonable topics given the audience. It’s no orator of the century speech, but it’s not remotely what the left (specifically this article) is trying to make it out to be. Bottom line, going to the actual source once again proves to be much better than just immediately gobbling up some garbage article that popped on Google or a CNN link.
