I think that’s part of a passive sonar array. But I like your explanation better so we’ll go with it.

“I went to the doctor, but all he did was suck blood from my neck. Don’t go see Dr. Akula.”

I’ve always had a soft spot for the Gotland class, but I won’t argue with you about Alfas being the most interesting.

... if we are going to derail a conversation about black lives to talk about black-on-black crime,...

Apologies to the author of this piece but I’m going to comment before reading and run the risk of repeating what the author probably already said:

Terrell, you forgot to bait us with a big, bold “Trump” in your headline.

Where are these “far too many white people” indicating they are the real victims of society? I’ll wait.

Maybe that is exactly why they did what they did. But I don’t have an ounce of sympathy or understanding for these men. They are bad people who abused their power and did bad things.

Ah yes. He’s mad that trucks are parked in front of his property. The logical action is to render them immobile.

Pfft, air-wing range only matters if you have to return to the carrier. Worked great for the Doolittle raiders, right? Right? Anybody?

The S-3 is great aircraft. And that Centennial of Naval Aviation paint scheme is fantastic.

Right, I don’t think the premise of the article is misguided, but it is fair to note that the criticism leveled at the Hornet in 1982, which the article quotes (less range but no more accuracy), doesn’t apply anymore.

Would a workable middle ground be using the trident for both legs? A quick glance at their specs indicates the Trident II is close to, if not equal to the Minuteman III in range. I would assume that if the Trident II can be launched from a submerged sub it could handle being surface launched, it would require little…

Facts kind of don’t matter when a defense blog is simply a vessel for political hackery.

I hate being “that guy”, but we did not drop hydrogen bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. They were conventional nuclear weapons, one an implosion type, and one a plutonium gun type. If your facts are this bad, I bet a lot of the rest of the article is too.

“A lot of sellers all over the internet are using my brand name to try and sell their products to my client base,” she said via email. “I am a proud black woman focused on the ethnic hair products for my fellow black women.”

Did I say that it did?

Remember when CNN retracted that article on Russia - Trump ties and 3 of their journalists resigned?

Seven years ago there was a poorly rated show called “No Ordinary Family” that explored a family that all slowly discovered that they had super-powers and each assuming that they were the only one in the world, kept it secret from the rest of the family. It was actually pretty good.
