The United States military might soon add an insane new weapon to its arsenal.

As I often say, the United States has the most powerful military on the planet, and there's no close second.

We don't just have the best people. We have the greatest technology and weapons that humans have ever designed.

Whether it's the B-21 Raider, the F-22 Raptor, nuclear submarines, aircraft carriers or anything else, the United States can bring tools to the fight years more advanced than our adversaries.

That might now include a new kind of munition.

Lonesome in Massachussets: "I do not know how much of a threat drones will be in future wars.
I don’t think anyone really knows."

If you think of the word "drone" as referring to pretty much any unmanned vehicle, then you can be certain that many different categories of drones will dominate, or at least influence, all future battlefields.

These can range from little quad-copters costing maybe $1,000, and carrying cameras or a grenade 10 miles, to $1+ million dollar cruise missiles that can fly 1,000 miles and loiter over a battlefield all day, waiting for its assigned targets to come out of hiding.

What's not yet known is how successful will militaries become in shooting down, or otherwise eliminating, all the different categories of drones.

We do know that Russians, and even more, Ukrainians, have a huge headstart on what drone warfare can look like on future battlefields.

"That's the same approach to precision as the JDAM.
It works quite well in that application."

Right, but the issue is EW GPS jamming & spoofing:

That's the issue our best equipment is intended to prevent.

My friends all this is being monitored in Ukraine. No more fighting the last war.

Yom Kipper-1973. Syria lost 75 Russian built-planes fighting Israel. Israel lost none. Even taking Syrian pilots lack of skills into account the Russian planes came up short. We monitored that one too.

It’s sad one has to show off the effectiveness of one’s weapons systems. Hiroshima was a message to the Russians. Then there’s the 36 hour bombing of Irans nuke experiment. The message will take effect for awhile.

That would be a better scenario. Except the dems will fight it tooth and nail until they fail and the cities collapse. Watch N.Y. City if Madmandami wins. Socialist democrat? Forget the “democrat” part. The dems have moved so far left they are practically embracing communism. I never in my 75 years thought I’d see anything like this effing mess. Pritzer, Newsome, Murphy, AOC, Omar, Crockette, etc. A very tough road for Pres. Trump, but I hope to God somehow he succeeds.
