Could Russia’s Nuclear Submarines Be a Disaster Waiting to Happen?
Kyle Mizokami, The National Interest - 4 hours ago
*Kyle Mizokami* *Russian Navy, * As tensions between the two capitals begin to reach Cold War levels, accidents such as the K-431 incident are important reminders that events can and will happen that threaten to spiral dangerously out of control. *Here's What You Need to Remember: * 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. In 1985, a Soviet submarine unde...
Why NATO’s Artillery Guns are Second to None
Charlie Gao, The National Interest - 4 hours ago
*Charlie Gao* *NATO Weapons, Europe* This capability, while less relevant in Western counterinsurgency doctrine, has proven useful in recent conflicts in Ukraine and Syria. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *The system is significantly more strategically mobile compared to the M270, as it is C-130 transportable. It is also cheaper to maintain than the M270 since it is mounted on a truck chassis. However, this limits its tactical mobility. Rocket artillery is one of the most destructive weapons on the modern battlefield. Designed to pump out a high volume of fire within a short ...
Why Does Iran Want So Many Ballistic Missiles?
Farhad Rezaei, The National Interest - 4 hours ago
*Farhad Rezaei* *Iran Missiles, Middle East* When will it be enough? *Here's What You Need To Remember:* Developing indigenous missile and anti-missile systems is a key component of Iran's deterrence strategy. Unlike Iran’s nuclear program, the country’s arsenal of ballistic missiles has received only scant scholarly attention. At best, some highly technical analyses have been offered. At worst, the missiles have been considered only as part of the nuclear project, designed to carry nuclear warheads. However, the missile program is a complex and sophisticated response to Iran’s ...
Meet Italy's Forgotten Super Battleship Fleet of World War II
Robert Farley, The National Interest - 4 hours ago
*Robert Farley* *World War II, Europe* Despite their drawbacks, Roma and its sisters were useful ships. *Here's What You Need to Know*: The Italian navy was beset by problems during World War II. Italy’s Regia Marina was one of the busiest navies of the interwar period. Four old battleships were rebuilt so completely that they barely resembled their original configuration. This helped Italy achieve what was really, by the late 1930s, significant ship-to-ship superiority over the French Navy. The reconstruction of these ships helped generate ideas as to what their new battleships...
Why No Navy on Earth Is Quite Like North Korea’s
Kyle Mizokami, The National Interest - 4 hours ago
*Kyle Mizokami* *North Korea Navy, Asia* The KPN consists of approximately sixty thousand personnel, including conscripts serving five- to ten-year military terms. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *While not up to par with many modern navies, the KPN still manages to stay afloat—literally—and even sports modern firepower in the form of the Kumsong-3 missile. Pyongyang is clearly trying to upgrade its navy, likely turning it into a modest antiaccess force for the waters around North Korea. The Korean People’s Navy—what North Korea calls its naval force—is one of the most unusua...
Wolf Warrior Diplomacy: Why Beijing’s Aggression in Bhutan is Working
Georgia Leatherdale-Gilholy, The National Interest - 4 hours ago
*Georgia Leatherdale-Gilholy* *Great Power Competition, Asia* [image: Great Power Competition] Beijing is flexing its muscles against even small countries, such as the Buddhist kingdom of Bhutan. Bhutan is the last standing Buddhist Kingdom in the world. It has one of the fastest growing economies and is consistently ranked as the happiest country in Asia. It is a small country with a remarkable past and present, but its future is threatened by the aggression of neighboring China. China’s 1951 annexation of Tibet brought Beijing closer to Bhutan’s doorstep than ever before, and s...

Don’t Let Your Potatoes Go Bad! Do These Simple Things to Keep Them From Sprouting.
Nick Meyer, AltHealthWorks.com - 6 hours ago
In just about any kitchen you’ll likely find a bag of potatoes sitting somewhere under the counter, just waiting to be peeled, boiled, and otherwise cooked. But if your potatoes end up sprouting and going bad you’ll end up having to throw them out like millions of people always do! Keeping your potatoes fresh is something that comes with a little practice but it’s well worth it to preserve one of the more nutritious foods in your pantry (especially if they’re sweet potatoes which are far more nutritious and have less anti-nutrients than the regular ones).

See the Picture: Japan’s Midget Submarines Never Lived Up to the Hype
Warfare History Network, The National Interest - 4 hours ago
*Warfare History Network* *Pearl Harbor, Asia* Throughout the war in the Pacific, Japanese midget subs made meager contributions. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *Paintings and postcards romanticized the midget submarine sailors who lost their lives at Pearl Harbor, but Sakamaki is excluded from any mention. His image is not present in memorial artwork. The Japanese were aware that *HA-19* and Sakamaki had both been captured. Having failed in his mission and lived, Sakamaki had become an outcast.
