  • You see what makes a Nazi isn’t actually killing millions of people. It’s only killing millions of Russians. The reason why the Nazis are evil is not actually because they are evil but because they went against the Russians.

    That’s how many of the Russians see it anyway, and by extension many tankies. The only difference is tankies have to try and sound reasonable to a Western leftist audience.






  • Maybe capacity is to the point where military planners are willing to give up stock of some missiles. But if I’ve taken anything away from the Russo-Ukranian war, it’s that quantity of weapons systems is incredibly important. There’s a heck of a lot of targets to hit in China.

    However if the US is in a position to send JASSM to Ukraine, I will be excited. Personally, I’m very excited to see what weapons systems that Ukraine can now use since it has F-16. Especially with JDAM-ER which the Russians have shown the effectiveness of.

    The resurgence of the ATACMs is aimed at Ukraine and Europe as a whole. Especially Poland and its massive HIMARS fleet on order. It would definitely be useful in the Pacific, but from what I see in the procurement requests, it’s mostly for foreign order. It’s a major move though, seeing as new production of the ATACMs was terminated in 2007.
