    Casual Discussion German marching tunes

    Had to look up this one in my earlier replies....(Reading the larger reply might be of interest Joe et al....) It is always so sad what war takes away so permanently...that was one sung of so fondly... Mein Schlesierland, Op.50 (Mittmann, Paul), 1892

    More for @Paro @Blackbeardsgoldfish et al to consider, muse for time being. I will get to maybe unpacking more of this later. This thread serves as good bookmark process.

    Live Conflict Ukraine-Russia War

    All is not what it seems there either.... TIFWIW: Behind the scenes and layers....PRC has drawn several red lines for RUS Friend of mine (and he is pretty high up in the know about this) says certain chips China makes...are held extremely close to their chest...especially given pressures and...

    With a little investment and time spent...you can turn organic waste into energy and also compost.....rather than throwing it to waste and have waste management burden.

    India India - Pakistan Relations

    I remember watching this movie for the first time in college 2nd year I think.... I got hooked on kubrick after that.... This is the part that came uncannily close for the USAF: This stuff was all super classified back then as SAC was still the major deterrent the US had....till way more...

    They will have to revisit everything and thoroughly do a failure analysis.

    Is Taiwan Next?

    I'll be getting to it soon again. Another thing you must consider with all Taiwan analysis is the golden goose factor and how that looks for PRC post (hypothetical) war. Down to detail of how do you manage the defeated Taiwanese population (who's worst fears they put as unlikely are now fully...

    India India - Pakistan Relations

    The other incompetency I can think of with this chain of events....is why wasn't there a strong enough self-destruct if you already have a dummy warhead...on such "blank" rounds effectively. i.e if something actually does get launched, you need a way to destroy it onboard ASAP over safe area...

    India India - Pakistan Relations

    X-craft theory (after I mused) starts bringing up more questions rather than answering them...not to mention it has its core set of incompetencies/risks involved/baked in. It seems redundant for me to continue with my (speculative) theory of an X-craft (Sigint or otherwise) if this is what will...

    Don't hold your breath.... I didn't see much accountability (at least openly) over the IFF Mi-17 friendly fire incident during the PAF strike post balakot.

    India India - Pakistan Relations

    The caveat with that, was if its just regular test. Those are done in different way from pokhran test range (in this vicinity) for a reason. They would not run regular flight or system tests like this (wherever it was launched from and going to)... I suspect this was something else....the key is...

    India India - Pakistan Relations

    I will explore it in more detail a bit later. It was on purpose, and it involved a "dark" payload for signal gathering IMO. The incompetence here was a failure in the system itself (brahmos does fail from time to time) at some point after launch....whatever caused the veering towards the...

    Live Conflict Ukraine-Russia War

    Some snippets to ponder for members (TIFWIW): Pentagon Intelligence: Ukraine has got about 56 fixed wing fighters left in the airforce, or about 80% of what they had before the war. Russian SEAD/DEAD capabilities does not impress. Ukrainian intelligence: 18 Russian battalion tactical...

    India India - Pakistan Relations

    Seems really stupid to be doing these tests so close to border if its just a flat out normie test or sim....that makes no sense to me tbh, these are not cheap systems without requisite CnC robustness and SOP (that would follow NOTAM and enough distance away...generally indian ocean tests). I...
