"@CalibreObscura This is not necessarily an indicator of anything imo. Successfully intercepting high subsonic threats with APKWS will still be limited by engagement geometry. Better cueing would help but that only goes so far given APKWS kinematics"

"@Arthur_Foxache @AlexHollings52 Its sufficient for North Korea and Iran. DPRK only gained the ability to hold North America at risk with a single digit number of ICBMs in the last decade. NGI will align GMD for future threats from DPRK and others"

"@AlexHollings52 GMD cannot achieve raid annihilation against XX ICBMs with 3-4 MIRVs. 36-48 reentry vehicles is sufficient to saturate GMD. Each GBI has a single EKV and at least two need to be tasked to each threat. To say nothing of any discrimination issues given penetration aids etc"

"Once again Russia has always programmed Iskander-M to maneuver and employ quasi-ballistic flight profiles. Variation in PATRIOTs engagement success rate is due to a host of nuanced factors only some of which can be publicly disclosed"

"A reading disability would also partly explain why Trump seems to know so little about the world in addition to his financial illiteracy. He likely would have avoided reading throughout his life never having learned real techniques to manage a reading impairment"

"@marauder2048 The language of the executive order implies the transfer of funds to DoD accounts from other departments. How they choose to interpret consistent with applicable law is the wild card"

"@Arthur_Foxache @AlexHollings52 Its worth it to maintain freedom of action. GMD exists to prevent random nuclear weapon states from coercing the U.S. and breakout states from deterring intervention with a minimum nuclear capability"

"@KyleJGlen @johnkrempasky @haynesdeborah @DefenceHQ C-UAS is largely an Army problem and secondarily an RAF problem as it concerns airfield defense. It is also a subset of the general IAMD problem. Otherwise the RAF and RN have critical priorities entirely unrelated to C-UAS"
