Salami ali kum !
That’s a silly concept.
Tired, maybe. Our troops have fighting since 2002.
Worn out, maybe. War wreaks pretty dreadful wear and tear on stuff. When was the last time we got a new M-1 tank?
Overextended, maybe. We are in waaaaaaay to many places.
But outdated? Don’t think so. There might be more advanced aircraft or weapons. MIGHT be. But the folks that built them can’t afford to deploy them.
Our biggest issue with destroying Iran would be operating in the constricted waters of the Gulf. That would leave ships vulnerable to anti-ship missiles with little warning. Mines would also be a major threat.
In any case, unless the Iranians do something REALLY stupid we ain’t goin’ there.
“They’d better hide Salami.”
Why? I don’t think we’re going after this guy, I mean from the looks of it he might be an unwitting asset for us. LOL
Hmm well we could see I guess
We do need force modernization, and there is progress being made, like the JLTV (HMMWV replacement) and the AMPV (M113 replacement). The M1A3 is now being fielded to some units.
But, a lot of the Army’s big systems like the Bradley, Apache, and Black Hawk are 1980s era developments. We’ve gotten very proficient at counterinsurgency that for a while, we took our eye off the ball of conventional war, but there has been a pivot back to that. I think we’ll see more. The JLTV is definitely needed.
If he Really believes that, boy will he be surprised !!!
He might want to look up next time he goes out to his car.......
This guy has to be on the Biden Campaign Team. When does he start at MSNBC?
Me thinks the lady, she doeth protest to much
Any way, the USA is not going to war and kill Iran.
The new coalition of the Gulf States and Israel are going to kill Iran. They are already in a shooting war and if it gets worse, they take out the mullahs
I hope the designers of JLTV keep in mind that we tried to turn the HMMWV into a light armored car and make appropriate allowances.
I prefer General Bologna
Give him a helping hand.
Pretty sure it was a reference to hiding THE salami.
Salami is sure dealing out the baloney.
Keep taunting Pres Trump, sir.
And keep your will updated.
This idiot is starting to believe his Russian buddies.
Hey Salami! The Iraqi Air Force took out Kharg Island back in the 80s. One egg dropped from a made in America F-35 will take it out now. Just ask Soleimani how “out dated “ our weapons are. LOL!
Hahahahah, Hahahahahaha, I guess I’m a little slow today.
Thanks for the heads-up.
Lockheed, Boeing, and Raytheon marketing are sending him bouquets.
