Who Wins This Fight: An F-22 Stealth Fighter , or a Tropical Storm?
*Sebastien Roblin* *F-22, * We found out on October 9, 2018, when Hurricane Michael hit. The Air Force had just a few days to evacuate. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *The storm flipped a fourteen-ton F-15 used as monument on its back, destroyed all of the homes of base personnel and their families, scattered trailers like matchsticks, shredded trees and peeled off metal roofs. Tyndall’s drone runway, flight line and marina sustained catastrophic damage. The F-22 Raptor may be the most elusive fighter ever built. It has a radar-cross section the size of a marble, and if it g... read more
Submarine Sinker: The USS England was Every Submariner’s Nightmare
*Michael Peck* *U.S. Navy, Americas* At first glance, the England (named for John England, a sailor killed at Pearl Harbor) was not an impressive vessel. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *For almost 73 years, the USS *England* has set a record for most subs sunk by a single ship. That record remains unbroken. Destroyer escorts were the econo-warships of the U.S. Navy in World War II. Designed to be smaller and cheaper alternatives to Navy destroyers, destroyer escorts weren't designed to slug it out in a fleet battle like their bigger brothers. Instead theirs was the dreary bu... read more

U.S. perceives the FSLN “as a menace,” says veteran Nicaraguan Sandinista militant
RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL - Washington "always has us in its sights, it regards us as a threat," said Mendoza, former Nicaraguan military attaché to the United States during the first Sandinista government (1979-1990).

Switzerland sees decline in most infections for 2020
Campylobacter and Salmonella infections declined in Switzerland in 2020 while Listeria was stable despite a large outbreak. E. coli reports fell for the first time since 2014. The COVID-19 pandemic likely influenced disease reports, researchers said. Factors such as resources being diverted to coronavirus, hygiene measures and travel restrictions may explain the trend.

Africans, Others Incredulous At IEA’s “Net Zero” Blueprint
By Duggan Flanakin ~ The International Energy Agency may have started a firestorm with its blueprint for achieving “Net Zero by 2050.” Its measures demand a swift and immediate shift from petroleum to energy provided through sources such as wind, hydro, and solar power. To avoid what it considers an impending climate “disaster,” the IEA has […] read more

Britain Should Be Proud of Its Vanguard-Class Nuclear Submarines
*Caleb Larson* *Security, Europe* During the Cold War, the United Kingdom prioritized deterring the Soviet Union—a difficult challenge considering the United Kingdom’s small geographic size, and relative proximity to the USSR. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *The Vanguard-class is due to be retired by the late 2020s or early 2030s by the newer Dreadnought-class, though the Trident missile system will be carried over to the Dreadnoughts, remaining in service till the 2060s or even later. A service life of around 70 years—not bad for a missile developed in the late 1980s. The U... read more
The First Nuclear Weapons Tests After World War II Changed Everything
*Timothy Noël Peacock* *Nuclear Weapons, * The cultural shockwaves from the first nuclear weapons test were far-reaching. As I sat in a darkened cinema in 1998, mesmerised and unnerved by the opening nuclear bomb explosions that framed the beginning of Roland Emmerich’s Godzilla, it felt like I was watching the most expensive special effect in history. Vast expanding clouds and fireballs eclipsed their surroundings and smothered everything in their path, dropping radioactive material that gave rise to the title monster. I had never encountered anything like this. I appreciated... read more

*Sebastien Roblin* *NATO, Europe* Sailors, soldiers, and airmen from all twenty-nine NATO member states are participating as well as Finnish and Swedish forces, 250 military aircraft and sixty-five ships. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *By 2020, NATO is aiming for the capacity to mobilize thirty mechanized battalions, thirty squadrons and thirty warships within thirty days. For now, though NATO planners will be satisfied if it can channel the tens of thousands of troops through the Nordic weather without major mishap On October 25, 2018, over fifty thousand military personne... read more
America’s Supersonic F-110 Super Sabre Was One Amazing Fighter
*Sebastien Roblin* *F-100, Americas* The first of the ‘Century Series’ of advanced 50’s-era fighters, the F-100 was nicknamed the ‘Hun’ as an abbreviation for 100. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *America’s first supersonic jet did not excel as a fighter and had beastly accident rate—but it still pioneered revolutionary new technologies and tactics, and ended up doing much of the grunt work supporting hard-pressed ground forces in the Vietnam War. On October 14, 1947, an orange-painted Bell X-1 piloted by Chuck Yeager became the first aircraft to break the sound barrier in lev... read more

Meet the RSR: Russia’s Attempt at Building its Own SR-71 Blackbird
*Sebastien Roblin* *SR-71, Europe* It’s a cliché of the Cold War that no sooner did one superpower pioneer a new weapons technology that its rival swiftly sought its own copy, canceling out any advantage long-term. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *The otherworldly looking RSR was killed as much by its bureaucratic enemies as the technological challenges of its development—but it’s interesting to speculate what response it might have elicited from the United States had it ever been deployed. It’s a cliché of the Cold War that no sooner did one superpower pioneer a new weapons ... read more
Tanker War: Iran Lost Big When It Took on the U.S. Navy
*Sebastien Roblin* *History, Middle East* The narrow straits of the Persian Gulf had become a shooting gallery due to the Iran-Iraq War, still raging seven years after Iraq’s surprise invasion of Iran in 1980. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *The Tanker War demonstrated how Iran could retaliate against foreign pressure through calibrated, and semi-deniable attacks on the valuable shipping passing through the narrow waters of the Gulf—even though the campaign failed to inflict substantial economic damage, or indeed sink many large ships. On July 21, 1987, a gigantic 414,000-t... read more
The F-111 Aardvark Almost Killed a World Leader

The Russian Sukhoi Su-24 Fencer was conceived shortly after the F-111, and is remarkably similar in appearance and role, down to the swing wings. Not quite the Aardvark’s equal in terms of range, speed or weapons load, nearly three times more Su-24s were produced and over three hundred serve on today in various world air f... read more

The event is now set to take place behind closed doors which is a bitter blow for both the public and organizers after a massive amount of work and investment.

Brazen North Korea Submarine Operations Nearly Started World War III
*Sebastien Roblin* *North Korea, Asia* North Korea had lost two submarines in September 1996 and June 1998 while attempting to insert or exfiltrate Special Forces agents on espionage missions in South Korea. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *Yet again, North Korean spies had chosen to go down guns blazing rather than surrender.

This will be brief. And it's about change in the western world that I should have looked at much more quickly. Capitalism has always been an abuse of the average people of our society. But the rise of Jeff Bezos should have us really scared. He has taken the U.S. back into a world of darkness and fear.

He built his fortune out of Amazon stores, a chain that made him super rich out of his contempt for his employees. He forba... read more

Income effects on labor supply
Here is a fascinating new paper by Mikhail Golosov, Michael Graber, Magne Mogstad, and David Novgorodsky on the effects of winning the lottery. The bottom line on what people do with their good fortune: "On average, an extra dollar of unearned income in a given period reduces pre-tax labor earnings by about 50 cents, decreases total labor taxes by 10 cents, and increases consumption by 60 cents." In other words, people use their extra wealth not only to buy more goods and services but also to buy more leisure. As a result, "the introduction of a UBI will have a large effect on ea... read more

Banned by the Twitter Totalitarians
I have just been handed my second stint in the Social Media Outer Darkness by the Twitter Totalitarians. The first was because I told the truth about the experimental gene therapies masquerading as vaccines, particularly the fact that they have not completed the clinical trials (which they haven’t), and that they are causing a huge amount of adverse reactions and deaths (which they are).

Ten Soviet submarines experienced nuclear accidents, and one other, *K-11*, also suffered a refueling criticality. The U.S. Navy’s nuclear submarine fleet, by contrast, suffered zero nuclear accidents—not only during the Cold War but all the way up to the present day.

Inflation Enigma: Is America Prepared for the Inflationary Impact?
*Milton Ezrati* *economy, Americas* This prominent problem likely reflects monetary policy mistakes dating back almost since the financial crisis of 2008–09. After a decades-long hiatus, inflation is back in the news. So far, the figures this year are startling, and as anyone who remembers the great inflation of the 1970s and 1980s knows, inflation, once it gains momentum, can devastate financial markets, distort economic decisionmaking, and severely limit growth prospects. In the face of such concerns, Washington has shown little more than a kind of insouciance. Federal Reserve ... read more
Why Afghanistan Has Crumbled
*Rafi Khetab* *Afghanistan, Eurasia* The Afghan political leadership had multiple opportunities to unify itself for the sake of the future of the nation during the past two decades. Sadly, it did not. Much like Iraq in 2011, the departure of the U.S. military from Afghanistan has created a security vacuum causing the situation in the country to deteriorate at an alarming rate. Emboldened by the U.S. military withdrawal, the Taliban have captured over 120 of Afghanistan’s 387 districts. The Taliban have also seized Afghanistan’s main border crossings and transit chokepoints with ... read more

Are the Army's M1 Abrams Tanks Still Top of the Line?
*Charlie Gao* *Tanks, * The Abrams still rules the roost, but its competitors are nearly as good - and might be better, depending on how "tank effectiveness" is measured. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *By the time the M1 Abrams entered service, it was facing the latest generation of Soviet tanks: the T-64B, T-72A, and T-80. These were much tougher nuts to crack than the basic T-72 and T-64; they featured composite armor of their own. In the 1970s, the situation for NATO tank forces in Europe was grim.
