After 9 Deaths, Blood Clot Concerns over AstraZeneca Experimental COVID Shot Prompts Germany to Halt Injections Again
AdminM, Medical Kidnap - 7 hours ago
German health officials agreed Tuesday to restrict the use of AstraZeneca’s coronavirus vaccine in people under 60, amid fresh concern over unusual blood clots reported in a tiny number of those who received the shots. Health Minister Jens Spahn and state officials agreed unanimously to only give the vaccine to people aged 60 or older, unless they belong to a high-risk category for serious illness from COVID-19 and have agreed with their doctor to take the vaccine despite the small risk of a serious side-effect. The move follows the recommendations of Germany’s independent vaccine ...
Has Azerbaijan’s Use of Drones in Karabakh Transformed Warfare?
Adam Leong Kok Wey, The National Interest - 8 hours ago
*Adam Leong Kok Wey* *Nagorno-Karabakh War, South Caucasus* The strategic lessons drawn from the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict were not the dazzling use of drones but the importance of using airpower for close air support missions and battlefield interdiction strikes. The recent Nagorno-Karabakh War has generated lots of interest and excitement about the domination of drones and the purported transformation of future warfare. Azerbaijan forces had used Turkish Bayraktar TB2 Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicles (UCAV) and IAI Harop “kamikaze” loitering drones extensively in attacking Armen...
Japan's 6th-Gen Stealth Fighter Jet: Americans Need Not Apply?
Charlie Gao, The National Interest - 8 hours ago
*Charlie Gao* *6th Generation Stealth Fighter, * If the media buzz is to be believed, it looks like Japan has been doing a lot of flip-flopping about its choice in potential partners. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *Implicitly, Japan may doubt the ability of a British fighter to be truly multirole, given the slow pace at which British weapons have been integrated onto the Royal Air Force’s Eurofighter Typhoons. Regardless, a partnership with American companies is a significant step forward for Japan’s F-3 fighter program, which will be a crucial piece of maintaining Japan’s ...
The Terrifying Way Japan Could Have Maybe Won World War II
James Holmes, The National Interest - 8 hours ago
*James Holmes* *military, Asia* [image: World War II History] Tokyo could have bided its time and focused on China or else gone for a less politically-charged objective instead of striking Pearl Harbor. *Key point: *What if Imperial Japan had attacked and seized the Phillippines instead? Perhaps Washington would have been less able to rally a response or fight for as long as needed to retake it. Suppose Robert E. Lee had laid hands on a shipment of AK-47s in 1864. How would American history have unfolded? Differently than it did, one imagines. Historians frown on alt-history, an...
Could Russia's 'Cruise-Missile Killer' Stand Up to Israel in Syria?
Charlie Gao, The National Interest - 8 hours ago
*Charlie Gao* *Missile Defense, * While marketed as a “cruise-missile killer,” the S-350 is really much much more. It’s a medium-range SAM on a similar level to the Buk M3 and could be an effective point-defense system as well. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *However, despite it’s nominally medium-ranged role, the S-350 has the potential to surpass the Pantsir. While reports are controversial, the Pantsir’s deployment in Syria is generally held to be not that successful, with units of both the S1 and S2 variety being destroyed in Israeli saturation attacks.

A Missile For World War III: China Should Fear the U.S. Navy's LRASM Missile
Sebastien Roblin, The National Interest - 8 hours ago
*Sebastien Roblin* *Missiles, Americas* The LRASM could significantly improve the striking power and reach of U.S. surface warships. *Here's What You Need to Know: *The LRASM carries multiple sensors allowing it to autonomously search for and identify adversary warships. On October 11, 1967, the Israeli destroyer *Eilat *was sunk by three P15 cruise missiles fired by two dinky sixty-one-ton patrol boats of the Egyptian Navy firing from nearly twenty miles away. The realization dawned on navies across the world that long-range “over-the-horizon” missiles had replaced the gun, tor...

Meet the Never-Built Montana-Class Battleships
Peter Suciu, The National Interest - 8 hours ago
*Peter Suciu* *U.S. Navy, Americas* [image: U.S. Navy] These would have been the largest battleships ever created, but thankfully there were never built and used in battle. *Key point: *Large warships are impressive, but they can also be slow and vulnerable to enemy aircraft. In fact, they are also expensive too. It was the class of warships that was never built, the *Montana-*class – authorized under the "Two Ocean Navy" building program and funded in Fiscal Year 1941 – and it would be the last of the kind ever ordered by the U.S. Navy.

Forget the Missiles: North Korea Flies Fighter Jets That Belong in a Museum
Peter Suciu, The National Interest - 8 hours ago
*Peter Suciu* *North Korean Air Force, Asia* [image: North Korean Air Force] The Su-7 was an impressive and rugged plane used throughout the Warsaw Pact and its allies up until the 1970s. Certainly not as iconic as the MiG-15 jet fighter, the Sukhoi Su-7 was one of the Soviet’s early efforts to develop a jet fighter. Originally designed to fill a role as a tactical, low-level dogfighter and interceptor, the Su-7B series proved ideal as a fighter-bomber and ground-attack aircraft in the 1960s. Development began in the early 1950s, and the first prototype, dubbed the S-1 “Strelka,...
The Fairchild C-119 Made Some Serious Space History

Those components and sections were used to repair a bridge over a deep chasm, and the resulting effort allowed thousands of U.S. Army soldiers and U.S. mar...

True Firepower: The Gatling Cannon Gave Birth to the Modern M61A2 Gun
Peter Suciu, The National Interest - 8 hours ago
*Peter Suciu* *Military History, Americas* [image: Military History] The Gatling gun was an impressive weapon with a high rate of fire, but that was but the beginning of such fast and high-volume weapons. *Key point: *Today, the General Dynamics M61A2 20mm rotary cannon is a special beast unto itself. Here is how it came from the old Gatling gun and now arms aircraft and vehicles. It isn't possible with the human eye to see a bullet as it leaves the muzzle of a gun, but in the case of the General Dynamics M61A2 20mm rotary cannon, it isn't just a single bullet that can't be seen...
'Flying Anachronism': Douglas A-1 Skyraider Was a Vietnam War Warrior
Peter Suciu, The National Interest - 8 hours ago
*Peter Suciu* *Fighter Jets, * By the 1950s the Skyraiders were largely considered relics. So how did they survive to see combat over a decade later? *Here's What You Need to Remember: *While it played a crucial role in Vietnam, the Douglas A-1 Skyraider was designed during World War II for the U.S. Navy. Described as a “flying anachronism,” the single-seat Douglas A-1 Skyraider–affectionately known as the Spads, after the French wood-and-wire World War I fighter–proved that a piston-powered, propeller-driven attack aircraft still had a place in the jet age.

Why Biden’s Choice To Bomb Outer Space Is So Damn Exciting

President Biden has announced he will be continuing to build Donald Trump’s Space Force — an idea Trump probably dreamed up while high on some bizarre pills his special “doctor” gave him and had left the rubber cement jar open on his desk. The Space Force is the new branch of our military designed to conquer and kill things in outer space. That might not be word-for-word from their mission statement, but I’d wager it’s close. Pretty sure their jackets say, “Let’s kill some shit in space.” And, let’s face it — we don’t know what’s in outer space. But whatever it is, we know it needs...
