If it was really China and not some random hackers, then instead of credit fraud, you can expect the other shoe to take the form of blackmail or other kinds of targeted influence manipulation.

Past and present, plus private contractor employees.

What, that the US spends less than 4 percent of its GDP on defense?

That’s easily the most selectively bogus pie charts I’ve seen. SS and medicare are “discretionary” too, if you just amend the law.

When you’re that old and that many children have passed through you, expansion is inevitable. They should change the name to the Duggar Canal.

I’d love to know what kind of steel they use for the teeth of this beast. It must be seriously tough.

1970s planes. A models, too.

You wrote the article and ask “why don’t we just build a new one?" Are you incapable of doing the research to find out why? Treaties are why.

This is a garbage article. What dream world do we live in where if we just get rid of nukes other countries will follow?

MADs are not that effective to begin with against modern submarines and if needed their is a plan to develop drones launched from the p-8. Using India in ANY way as an example to follow on defense procurement decisions is ludicrous, they are in a league of their own.

No, see, when it happens to a Windows PC it’s proof that Windows is shit.

Let’s just bring this outstanding work up out of the grey.

The two pennets are Unit awards giving to the crew of the submarine.
