A United States Carrier Strike Group is spotted off the coastline of Tel Aviv this morning
“”And tragically, most Americans don’t know, and don’t care.””
And thank God most Americans aren’t nuts!
“”A Marine Expeditionary Unit is needed””
I suspect they aren’t far away!!!
Why wipe out their refineries?
They need to take out the three uranium enrichment facilities and the facility where all the nuclear scientist work.
“And thank God most Americans aren’t nuts!”
I’m not sure willful ignorance is much better than being just plain crazy.
Depends on who mumbles Biden wants to attack.
No reason to be able to see a carrier from shore.
Restore Iowa class fast BBs. Better yet, build the Montana class. That’s what’s needed off Beirut, off Gaza, and in the Strait of Hormuz.
The carrier group is ready and loaded to fire shells contained “correct pronoun use” leaflets when ordered by the totally loathsome and putrid Biden sack of turds.
Not if Iranian anti-ship missiles / launchers are present....
Too bad the US doesn’t have any battleships in service anymore that could pull up to Gaza and do a little urban renewal.
I sure there is one in that battle group.
I wonder how long it takes a US fighter-bomber on full after burners to cover a 25 mile distance?
It’s to deter Iran from attacking Israel. Just in case.
About Mach 1.3. Flying at Mach 1.3 for 30 seconds would be approximately 7.98 miles. So about 1 minute 40 seconds to do 25 miles.
I think they are primarily there to cut off aid to Hamas from Lebanon
hope all their missile defense is in automatic more...
“Tel Aviv?
Should be GAZA CITY!...............”
Well.... they were kinda headed in that direction...lol.
Thanks for doing the heavy lifting.
Pikers, compared to the Blackbird. I read the glass windows would get very hot from wind resistance even in thinner air.
True, but the SR-71 never had to do a fighter maneuver, sweep back and then lock missiles on an adversary.
Not sure this is a good idea, after what we’ve been seeing in the Black Sea.
looks like a war game to me, I was Army but that seems awful close to shore for the Ford to have sailed in. But the ships don’t look real to me.
