[Eric Berger] NASA finally acknowledges the elephant in the room with the SLS rocket by gravitas_deficiency in c/nasa@lemmy.world
[-] gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 hours ago

The SLS was engineered with one overarching goal: to be politically un-cancelable (under normal political circumstances). And in that, so far it has wildly succeeded. There are so many parts and processes that touch on so many districts that are held by both parties that, until the recent “fuck it lets flip all the tables over” political era, killing it would be like touching a third rail. It was done this way as a specific reaction to the cancellation of the Constellation program.

I continue to be floored that so many people didn’t seem to care about that - or even admit that it happened. I watched it live and it was genuinely insane. Like, “oh fuck, this is looking a whole fucking lot like a coup, I wonder if we’ll be a democracy tomorrow” insane.

No, I get it. This is how it needs to be played. I consider myself an outlier in that I know and care about all the insane geopolitical shit we’re doing now (in addition to the domestic situation), but there are a fuckload of complacent and/or bigoted assholes here. And the only way to shake them out of their complacency is pain and discomfort, economic or otherwise. So, genuinely, have at it. I know this is what the situation requires, and I for one really do not hold it against you. Our government is forcing your hand.

Sorry for the link from The Other Site, but I thought this was too good to pass up. This is attitude is one of the main reasons I love this city so much. When the chips are down, we don’t fuck around. No tolerance or quarter for fascist bigots.

Government websites now no longer mention perhaps the single most selfless, incredible, and strategically significant coordinated effort by a community of First Nation military personnel in service to a country that did worse than nothing to deserve their loyalty - and yet they played, and succeeded in, a pivotal role that literally helped win the pacific campaign.

Any veterans on here: I really do hope you’re furious at this.

PLAN's new amphibious landing support vessels (youtu.be)
submitted 10 months ago by gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works to c/military@lemmy.world
2 comments fedilink

It’s a very obvious solution once you take a look at what a lot of their coastline looks like. Elevated armor delivery. Skip the beach. Dump ‘em’ straight on the coastal roads. Makes a shocking amount of sense. Definitely much more specific of a use case than the more general purpose landing support vessels that the USN/USMC employs, but for their primary missions and targets in the next decade, this is exactly the hardware that will significantly increase the CCP’s chances.

This is the an evolution of the combined arms amphibious assault tactics that the US has refined for the better part of a century. For heavily built up targets - specifically those that need to be assaulted and captured quickly for any reasonable chance of success (read: Taiwan + establishing a foothold on the island), this is PERFECT. This basically lets you dump 1000 tanks and a ton of IADS and 100k infantrymen in like, an hour.

That’s a paradigm shift right there.
