In the wake of Ukraine penetrating more than 30 kms into Kursk Oblast, they have now struck the Russian Air Force Base in the city of Lipetsk, using a barrage of long range drones. The ammunition storage facility at the base was struck, causing a significant detonation. Apparently secondary...

Hezbollah operatives being hunted from the air by Israeli drones. Locations unknown.

Israel 🇮🇱 continues to be effective from the air using both conventional aviation and drones. In this video they use either Hellfire or APKWS (Hydra-70) rockets to hunt HAMAS in Jenin. In this video an air launched weapon (likely a JDAM) is used to destroy an ammunition storage site used by...

That's objectively not true. They partied in the streets of Gaza in BROAD DAYLIGHT when members of HAMAS returned from Israel with men, women and children as hostages that were meant to be used as bargaining chips in war. A deplorable act that we have video footage of hundreds (if not...

There are people who rape, murder, commit acts of cowardice and war crimes in every country, region, culture, race, religion, military group, etc... Those acts are not unique to any one group and there are no groups immune to those actions from individuals. Since the beginning of conflict there...

This is when I wish Western politicians were more committed to Russia's defeat in Ukraine. The Ukrainians are in the process of mobilizing approximately 400,000 new troops to bolster their existing military and replenish the high levels of attrition that they have faced. Meanwhile, Russia's 2024...

This push into Kursk Oblast by Ukraine is extremely smart. Russia's summer offensive is dying out in all sectors with the exception of the push to Pokrovsk, which has proven to be extremely bloody and is chewing up Russian equipment at an alarming rate. By Ukraine pouring an estimated...

Lol I've been saying this very thread for months. Ukraine would be using their F-16s to fly top cover over their cities, tasked with intercepting Russian drones and cruise missiles. AIM-120B/C and AIM-9M are more than capable of completing said task, as has been proven by firing the same...

U.S. CVNs actually have the capacity to carry up to 130'ish F-18 Super Bugs simultaneously. They can keep their standard air wing in the fight, but they can absolutely be used as recovery platforms for naval strike aircraft that are launched from elsewhere. You could easily see a scenario in...

Who is sinking U.S. warships? Iran? No.

We've seen Russia's Navy get absolutely embarrassed by Ukraine, with little answer and Ukraine doesn't have a Navy to speak of. Russia's SSNs are undoubtedly the best part of its Navy, but they are completely outclassed by USA's Virginia Class hunter-killers. Not to mention, if we're assuming...

Let's say, hypothetically, that all of USA's Air Force Base access in Iraq, Kuwait, etc, were put out of commission and that the Saudis wanted to stay out of the war and didn't want USA launching strikes from their territory. I'll even got as far as suggesting that Turkey said the same thing...

1. Nobody is suggesting anything like the Iraq war. There will be no attempted land invasion of Iran. 2. There will be no American warships burning. The Iranians have little ability to sink an American Carrier Battle Group and the Russians are scared shitless to engage the Americans. The...

Nobody suggested a land invasion of Iran. There is immense damage that can be done from the air, without committing to a land invasion. Nobody is calling for the destruction of Iran in any way.

Seems reasonable if they feel like their air defenses are at serious risk of being overwhelmed. USA, Britain, France and Israel have excellent intelligence in both Iran and Lebanon... Especially as it relates to key military sites. They could inflict significant damage to the Iranians and their...

Let's be honest, the United States doesn't have a real problem even if they do strike Iranian territory. USA and Israel would mop up the Iranian Air Force in a matter of hours and many of their bases and much of their infrastructure (including their oil production) would be hammered from...

Dead Americans likely means more offensive involvement from the U.S... The situation could get quite juicy. TLAMS, JASSMs, JDAMs, HARMs and Hellfires galore. Bring on the death from above!

So now that Hamas has been battered and beaten to the point of operating almost exclusively from the tunnels under Gaza, I think Israel has to make a choice. 1. Develop a strategy that forces them out of the tunnels, which, objectively, is not an easy undertaking. 2. End the war in Gaza and...

Not likely, unless something substantial changes in terms of Western aid and the quality of equipment the West is committed to sending. I suspect the war will largely remain a stalemate for the foreseeable future, with 1-2% of the territory traded back and forth and whichever side is on the...

Yep! Russia has burned through thousands of pieces of armor it can't replace, tens of thousands of Russian lives, has raised bond rates to a level that will damage its economy for years and has been forced to stop exporting refined pretoleum products... To take less than 1% of Ukrainian...
