The Guy Lets It Rip))

And I can only agree, many do. 


This clusterfuck is so over the top, that I don't even know how to measure it. In related news and down the memory lane when the map of the US Navy's CBGs popped up on TG channels. 
None of the three are in any position (or station) to do much. And here is from quarter of a century ago by two distinguished US carrier aviators. Just enjoy:
Which group of technologies is progressing faster? One day soon, in a cultural battle, someone will no longer wish to put up with arrogant Western overflights. Some nation or group will buy a few “sons of SA-10”that can be fired by connectivity between cell phones, laptops, and a department-store telescope. The United States will launch a few F/A-18E aircraft (remarkably procured on time, on budget, and underweight),with their(equally remarkable)joint standoff weapon or joint direct-attack munitions, to blow up a bridge, probably, and not one of them will come back. U.S. air forces of every service have already conceded air superiority to certain SAM systems. Who do we think will get better faster? The United States is making a few well-armored knights, and they will face a forest full of peasants with longbows. Cruise missiles will replace manned aircraft and sink the ships that carry them. This is both good and bad news for the DD21crowd.Yes,theadvocatesofthat advanced new destroyer program will probably see the strike role migrate to their platform, because foreign adversaries will have SAM systems that manned aircraft cannot approach(after some “Pearl Harbor” event for manned aircraft).Unfortunately, those adversaries will probably also invest in surface-to-surface missiles as capable as the air variety; those big floating pieces of metal, no matter how high-tech, snazzy, or expensive, will be in dangerous waters.
It has been foreseen by many. Now the moment of reckoning is here. And yes, this is not shit-talking, it is the moment when the shit, pardon my French, got real.
