We have so many in poverty and no healthcare yet we piss our money to the caprice of underperforming MIC doohickeys.

All bravado no muscle, truly a paper tiger moment.

When God came down to burn the NATO, Ukraine and US flags, was it with a match made in heaven?

Not to split hairs here but the doohickey performed when it's hour was needed. Unlike our overpriced war toys.

I'm no expert but that sounds...not good (for the U.S, lmao)

given that US military heavily invested in guided weapons to offset the lack of industrial capacity, this is indeed a disaster from US perspective

[-] supafuzz@hexbear.net 12 points 5 months ago

Russian guided weapons, by contrast, use drone laser targeting spotters which can't be jammed by electronic warfare

which is sci-fi as hell actually, Russia's even opening up a bazinga gap

But I was told that Russia has no technology and only WWII era hardware and just sends troops into the meat blender. You mean they have real technology and are also actual humans??

WTF, I knew about jammers when I was like 10, why US Military so late to the game???

[-] RyanGosling@hexbear.net 16 points 5 months ago

Because the US only knows how to attack guys who use 40-70 year old rifles and walkie talkies, and still lose to them.
