NATO Take Note: The Russian Navy is Practicing Missile Strikes in the Baltic Sea
*Mark Episkopos* *Russian Navy, * In the years following the 2014 Euromaidan crisis, the Baltic region has seen a sharp spike in military tensions between Russian and North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) forces. One of Russia’s latest warships is holding large-scale live-fire drills in the Baltic Sea amid mounting regional tensions with NATO. “As part of the planned deployment to the sea, the crew of the corvette *Stoiky *successfully accomplished the task of delivering a missile strike against a naval target that simulated a mock enemy’s combat ship,” read a statement issu... read more
Skowronek Season
xkcd Ah, it's Skowronek Season already! Coming unusually early this term, when pundits gather to ask themselves what kind of relationship the current presidency is going to have with the longer-term current "regime", or complex of ideologies and interests out of which politics of a whole period are made, according to the framework put together by political scientist Stephen Skowronek in the 1990s: will it be a presidency of *reconstruction*, effectively opening a new regime, like those of Jefferson, Jackson, Lincoln, Franklin Roosevelt, and Ronald Reagan? Or of *articulation*,... read more

Iran Could Be Next: How Israel Took Out Saddam's Nuclear Program
*Robert Farley* *Israeli Air Force, Middle East* Israel has already shown that it's willing to take matters into its own hands. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *Iraq responded to the attack not by abandoning its efforts, but rather by redoubling them. What if Israel had not struck Iraq’s Osirak reactor in 1981? Or what if the attack, which was technically quite difficult, had failed? The attack, which was deeply controversial at the time, shifted the course of Iraq’s nuclear-weapons program. It also set a lasting precedent for how Israel, and potentially other nuclear states,... read more

Are China’s Naval Drones Any Match for the U.S. Navy’s “Ghost Fleet?”
*Kris Osborn* *Drones, * China says it's had a breakthrough. But it seems unlikely that China is well-positioned to match the advanced stages of collaborative autonomous functions now operational with the U.S. Navy. Given the scope of the U.S. Navy's progress with autonomous surface warfare and its fast-expanding fleet of drone warships, it comes as no surprise to learn that the large and closely followed Chinese Navy is reporting success with the same thing. The Chinese Communist Party-backed *Global Times* newspaper has reported that a new Chinese unmanned high-speed vessel... read more

A convoy of five American cargo ships made a simulated run through hostile waters in September 2019 during a sprawling, short-notice test of the U.S. fleet’s ability to ship people and cargo during a major war.
