I respect Elon, but here he's wrong. Or to be more specific, he's falling in to a very old trap. He's correct in that hypersonic and drones will become more ubiquitous on the battlefield. But not all problems require technological solutions when a change of TTP can more efficiently solve the problem. If space (satcom) and the electromagnetic spectrum become a contested battle space, and they will in near-peer conflicts, then those drones become less useful. For every new wonder-weapon, there is a defense; for every defense, there is a countermeasure.

The first F-4s were deployed without a gun, because all future air engagements would be a missile fight! Didn't work out too well. We'd do well to remember that.

That's what they voted for.
perhaps in the same way "we" voted for biden.
choices are driven by information, and we haven't had reliable, honest or unbiased information in a long time.

a good example is the j6 committee report. lots of americans think there was an insurrection, even though it is full of lies.

Hopefully gets charged with a separate felony for each spray.

Well, he got arrested in Arizona, let's see if charges stick.

 

A boy has been using the girls’ locker room to change at Westosha Central High School. He stares at the young girls while they change and that makes them feel very uncomfortable. Some of the girls began to use the stalls to change. When they would exit, the boy would be exposing his penis and rubbing himself with lotion. He claimed to the girls that the lotion was to “prevent chafing.”

He just needs to be beaten then shot…

Them girls should give him a blanket party.

So where's this pervs dad.
Somebody needs to look that clown up and go kick his ass.
Theres now way this shit should be going on, absolutely no way.

He MAY get a slap on the wrist. What would be more appropriate is if he were to have to eat all his food sprayed with that until the can is empty. Then, make sure he never has health insurance and he’s dealt the consequences accordingly. WHO the fuck thinks this shit up? What happened to making cock and balls in the fruits and veggies section. Heck, I’m old and I still think it’s funny.
 
This cannot happen by mistake
Prove to me there was no MANPAD sourced from American provided stockpiles in Afghanistan or Libya.

Claiming friendly fire, though embarrassing, is way less politically lethal than “Fast and Furious II - The Military Edition”.

Maybe it’s why the patient and the ho returned to DC Friday looking sick and pale.

Either that or the F-18 was in “Iran Air” livery.

Perhaps the SAM came off the Sig 320 line and someone dropped it.

I like the way you think. Another possibility...
The Russians called Potato's bluff, punched the bully in the nose, and he ran away crying. I know for a fact NATO air assets were targeted in that area before and it was only Providence that averted a shoot down over a year ago. I'm not sure how much of that incident is common knowledge, so I'll stay scant with details, but spending half my adult life in the airborne Recce community, I hear some things and can read between certain lines in the press releases (cause they start to look strikingly similar to releases about me and my buds a few years back).

*Edit--I totally fucked that all up. I read Red Sea, but thought Black Sea and just ran with it. In my defense I worked late and the shitty hotel coffee hasn't kicked in yet. But I guess the point stands..
