We are just blowing through munitions

 


before things even get ramped up.


USS Truman conducted 

largest airstrike in Navy history, 

official says

5/27/25 navytimes.com


"The U.S. Navy’s Carrier Air Wing 1 engaged in the largest maritime strike in Navy aviation history in terms of bomb tonnage earlier this year, a defense official confirmed to Military Times."

"On Feb. 1, the aircraft carrier Harry S. Truman launched 27 F/A-18 Super Hornets as part of a coordinated airstrike against Islamic State operatives in Somalia in collaboration with the federal government of Somalia, a defense official with knowledge of the strike said. The official spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss the matter."


(Cause everybody heard about that right?)


"Sixteen aircraft dropped 124,000 pounds of ordnance on targets in less than two minutes."


“The joint airstrikes targeted senior ISIS-Somalia leadership in a series of cave complexes approximately 50 miles southeast of Bosaso,” U.S. Africa Command said in a Feb. 11 statement. “The command’s current assessment is that approximately 14 ISIS-Somalia operatives were killed and no civilians were harmed.”


To understate the situation

would be to say:

That is not

a very efficient use of ordnance.


64 tons of munitions

14 Somalia operatives killed.


Not a very good return on investment

and not sustainable

headed into the future

even when considering:


"Among those killed was Ahmed Maeleninine, an ISIS recruiter and operations leader who led efforts to deploy jihadists into the U.S. and Europe, according to the statement."


(Still not a very good return on investment

were gonna wish we had that ordnance

in the Indo-pacific here soon.)

A Dangerous Air Defence Shortage Three Parts


about the Patriot

missile battery being in short supply

and its ineffectiveness against the Russian 

Iskander missile

and I cant help but recall 

what I told my preacher friend a while back:


"By the time it all really gets rolling?

The US is nothing but an afterthought."


How "far-fetched"

(as I have been 

previously accused of being :-)

is that looking right now?


Accept God man,

as he is going to drive you to your knees

such that you got no other place to go,

its the whole point

of the Book of Revelation.


He is making it pretty obvious,

Dont ya think?
