🇺🇸🇨🇳The United States is conducting exercises in preparation for a potential war with China, The New York Times writes.
Troops practiced new maneuvers based on observations of how Ukraine fights Russia.
"Now that the odds of war with China are growing, the big, unwieldy army is trying to transform itself after two decades of fighting terrorism in Afghanistan and the Middle East. Unlike the Taliban or other insurgents, China will have satellites that can see troop formations from the sky. The army, in effect, must learn to fly under the radar," the newspaper writes.
In Alaska earlier this month, nearly 1,000 soldiers were practicing airdrops. Not all of the planes' doors opened; one 19-year-old's parachute failed to open. The Marines, along with Japanese, Australian, Indonesian and other partners, rappelled down jungle ropes and then climbed wet trails, loaded with gear.
Near Pearl Harbor, Army transport crews practiced various methods of unloading military equipment and troops. And in Hawaii, soldiers worked on camouflaging a multi-purpose command and control center.
"The Pentagon calls it a great-power war, and it would be exponentially more dangerous. It would put the world's two most powerful militaries — both nuclear superpowers — in direct conflict, possibly drawing in other nuclear adversaries including North Korea and Russia. American troops would be killed in numbers that would likely surpass those of America's deadliest conflicts," the NYT writes.
And he notes that such a war will be waged on land, at sea, in the air and in space. And the US Army is already preparing for this.
The world’s fastest drone, the XLR V3, just went from 0 to 124 mph (200 km/h) in 1 second, faster than a Formula 1 car off the line.
Designed by Swiss engineers, the XLR V3 is a high performance FPV (First Person View) racing drone built with ultra light carbon fiber, high torque brushless motors, and cutting edge aerodynamics. It’s not just fast, it’s rewriting what’s possible in drone engineering.
This drone accelerates faster than:
✔️ An F1 car
✔️ A Tesla Plaid
✔️ Even a fighter jet on launch
Imagine what they're not showing us...
⚡️A Russian drone strike hit the car of Chief Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak Wolf in Kherson, head of the United Jewish Community of Ukraine’s local chapter.
Yosef is well known for assisting SBU and Nationalists in tracking down pro Russian Ukrainians who supported Russian forces during the liberation and uses his synagogue, as a shield, to help assemble FPVs for Ukrainian forces.
🇨🇦 Stefan Molyneux on X: Almost every government policy in the West is designed to prevent family formation for the native population.
📝 Roger Marques: "Could not agree more.
Housing is expensive.
Families taxed to the bone.
Prices are so high that both elements of the couple must work.
Women are incentivized to not care about having children in their prime.
Public schooling literally retards children.
The culture is profoundly anti-children.
What else?"
