This looks like something that was said between the head of the SVR and the leader of Belarus during a talk in Minsk. If true then it's meant for domestic audiences in Russia and Belarus.
Everyone in the West knows that Russia would get bitch slapped out of Ukraine if even a few of the NATO members, never mind the whole organization, decided to get directly involved.
Ding ding! You got it!
This mess with Trump is another symptom of our Congress being more intent on taking ~~bribes~~ campaign donations and retaining their personal power than handling the business of the nation.
Basically the same legislation that Colorado just passed.
Get elected to the US Congress. They don't do anything and get 6 figure salaries AND free Healthcare!
It was impressive but it happened in 1999. The Dutch Captain said that he doubted he could do it again and indeed a different Dutch Submarine failed at it the next year.
Carriers are considerable faster (30 Knots) than Diesel Subs (20 Knots) too, something the Dutch Captain touches on in that article.
Millennium Challenge 2002. That was a boondoggle. Yes the opposing force won and they had to reset the game but the OPFOR was up to some ridiculous shenanigans. For instance instead of using radios, which could be intercepted and tracked, they used motorcycles to convey messages...motorcycles that could travel at the speed of light.
Another piece of silliness is that there were commercial vessels (non-combatants) on the virtual water but OPFOR sometimes used them in ways that were impossible. As an example radar would return a 12 foot fishing boat and then that boat would launch four 20 foot long anti-ship missiles.
Then there's whole idea of a CBG just hanging around shore for days on end staying inside a pre-determined box so that OPFOR always knew their location, something that almost certainly not happen in an IRL conflict.
The Commander of the Opposing Force was extremely clever but they needed a long list of nearly impossible to achieve advantages to make it work.
I hard doubt the US doesn’t have classified hypersonic missile tech....
The HACM (Hypersonic Attack Cruise Missile) is already out there.
They already are. Why do you think the Toddler in Chief keeps walking stuff back?
Trump is dumber than a bucket of hair.
As an American I am deeply offended, horrified, angry and increasingly resigned to what may have to happen.
The 2026 elections will likely be the most defining moment in American History since the American Revolution.
