Great mil-update post (as usual ;n)

It’s always fascinated me how bi-polar the French are -
Domestically weak, and yet exporters of very lethal weapons.

In the late ‘50s my uncle was an A1 pilot with the US Navy and was trained in “lofting” a nuclear weapon while turning away to head back to the carrier.... what the pilot’s actual survival prospects may have been on such missions, I have no idea, but fortunately no one ever had to find out. Fortunately for all populations on the receiving end, of course......

We could still launch these from our aircraft if we still had them in our inventory.

Need a Fighter Jet to Drop Nukes, No Questions Asked?

Here I was thinking this was going to be an exposé of how to pass a few million$ through Sid Vicious to 'Illary.

In a real shooting war, India will stomp Pakistan like a messy bug. It might or might not go nuclear, depending on India’s fifth column attacks on Pakistan nuclear assets.

But India will win easily. The aftermath will not be pretty by anybodies standards.
