“As next in line to ruling Venezula *sniff* I just want to say after today’s raid we will… *sniff* we will drive the… imperialists… into the sea and we won’t… *sobs* be defeated… so… so… easily…”
Crazy knowing that there are probably orders of magnitude more civilians in the US better equipped and trained than half of Africa’s Special Operations units.
Also, just straight lying about them being better compared to Asian and South American militaries haha
African armies, often ridiculed, are now receiving better gear and training than many Asian and South American countries. A look at Niger 🇳🇪 SOF operator gear: insurgent groups in Mali and Niger have increasingly targeted Chinese 🇨🇳 mining and oil infrastructure.
I will scream this from the hilltops.
@SECNAV@SecWar@WhiteHouse You folks have it backwards. If you have to pick one jet to fund it needs to be the FA-XX for the @USNavy.
The Rhino is a good jet and it’s done a fantastic job over the past thirty years but it is absurd that our Air Wing in 2025 (and going into the future) is based around an interim airplane that first flew when I was in High School.
You have an obligation to do better for our Sailers, Naval Aviators,and our Country.
Fully fund and award the FA-XX now.
