China Has Stolen Its Way to Military Superpower Status
Robert Farley, The National Interest - 6 hours ago
*Robert Farley* *Security, Asia* The United States has become increasingly aggressive about slowing down or halting China’s industrial espionage efforts. This has included indictments of PLA officers, broad condemnations of Chinese spying, and targeted reprisals against some Chinese firms. *Here's What You Need To Remember:* Given the extensive commercial contacts between China and the United States, stopping the flow of technology is virtually impossible. Moreover, China has developed a large, innovative technology economy in its own right. It can now produce its own technolog...
F-16XL: The Insane Fighter the U.S. Air Force Said No To
Peter Suciu, The National Interest - 6 hours ago
*Peter Suciu* *F-16XL, * [image: F-16XL] In March 1981, the Air Force announced that it was looking to develop a new advanced tactical fighter to replace the F-111 Aardvark, and General Dynamics entered the F-16XL in the competition. The General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon remains the most procured fixed-wing aircraft in military service. Since its introduction in 1978, it has been adopted by twenty-five other nations, and there are approximately 3,000 operational Fighting Falcons in service. It has engaged in more than 400,000 combat sorties and has a combined 19 million fligh...
Has the U.S. Presidency Gone Rogue?
Ivan Eland, The National Interest - 6 hours ago
*Ivan Eland* *U.S. Presidential History, United States* [image: U.S. Presidential History] The presidency of Donald Trump merely highlighted the dangers of an already existing extra-constitutional presidency in which the chief executive regularly stretches the Constitution, the laws, and traditional norms of the office. During World War I, the Great Depression, World War II, the Cold War, and the War on Terror, presidential power grew immensely from being the first-among-equals branch of government, the imperial presidency, into what now can be called a “rogue” presidency that th...
The Air Force Is Already Implementing Its Anti-China War Plans
Kris Osborn, The National Interest - 6 hours ago
*Kris Osborn* *Security, Asia* Warfare readiness in the Pacific has taken on some new urgency in light of escalating tensions between the United States and China. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *B-2 readiness continues to be a large priority for the Air Force as the service seeks to extend the combat effectiveness of the aircraft for many more years as larger numbers of the new B-21 begin to arrive. While an 1980’s engineered, Cold War aircraft, today’s thirty-year old B-2 is quite different from early models of the stealth bomber. The U.S. Air Force is refining its bomber a...

Happy Full Moon 2021 : What You Need to Know About March's Worm ‘Supermoon’
White Wolf, White Wolf - 8 hours ago
The third full moon of 2021 will appear this weekend, offering sky gazers the opportunity to see the biggest and brightest moon of the year so far. March’s full moon is traditionally known as the Worm Moon in the northern hemisphere, as it comes at the end of winter when the ground begins to thaw. Nasa executive Gordon Johnston also noted that this month’s moon could be considered a “supermoon” by some definitions due to its proximity to Earth. First coined by the astrologer Richard Nolle in 1979, a supermoon is generally classed as a new or full moon that is within 90 per cent of i...

Memories That Seem Real
KRandle, A Different Perspective - 7 hours ago
I have suggested for years that memory is unreliable and I have cited a study done by Ulric Neisser after the Challenger disaster. He provided his first-year students with a short survey asking them about how they heard about the disaster, where they were and the like. Three years later, he provided those same students, now seniors, with the same six questions. He added a seventh about how accurate they thought their memories were. He found that nearly 75% of those were wrong about some of what they remembered. Nearly a quarter of them were completely wrong. Once of the student...
Why the Harpoon Anti-Ship Missile’s Days are Numbered
Charlie Gao, The National Interest - 7 hours ago
*Charlie Gao* *Security, * Could the Naval Strike Missile replace it? *Here's What You Need to Remember: *The new Harpoon is likely to remain the powerful “long arm” of the Navy. Its proper replacement is likely to come in the form of the AGM-158C LRASM, a big long-range stealth anti-ship missile. The Harpoon has a long and storied history in U.S. service. As the primary anti-ship armament of the U.S. Navy from the 1970s to the present, the Harpoon was involved in some of the only surface-to-surface engagements during the Cold War in Operation Praying Mantis.

*Warfare History Network* *World War II History, Asia* Wars do not usually go exactly as planned and incorrect premises can lead to faulty conclusions about how (and whether) to wage armed conflict. *Key point: *Tokyo wanted to dominate all of Asia.
