According to several media outlets, former National Security Advisor during President Donald J. Trump's first term, John Bolton, will plead guilty to illegal retention of classified information in a plea deal that would see 17 other charges dismissed and order him to pay a $2.25 million fine and face no more than 5 years in federal prison.

U.S. Marines depart amphibious assault ship USS Tripoli (LHA 7) by helicopter and transit over the Arabian Sea to board and seize M/V Touska. The Marines rappelled onto the Iranian-flagged vessel, April 19, after guided-missile destroyer USS Spruance (DDG 111) disabled Touska’s propulsion when the commercial ship failed to comply with repeated warnings from U.S. forces over a six-hour period.

I had this thought today.

What the world witnessed between the U.S. and Israel against Iran was one of the largest coordinated air campaigns ever launched against a single nation-state by two allied powers. Few operations, if any, in the modern era compare.

In the first 72 hours alone, over 1,700 targets were struck. By day seven, the U.S. had hit more than 3,000. By day ten, 5,000. The final U.S. tally: over 13,000 targets. More than 2,000 command and control sites. 1,500 air defense positions. 450 ballistic missile targets. 600 naval targets.
Israel matched that tempo on its own terms.

In 18 days, the Israeli Air Force flew what it normally flies in a full year. More than 12,000 munitions dropped. 8,500 strikes across Iran. 5,700 combat sorties in the Iranian theater alone. 7,000 targets struck across all fronts of operation.

Before Iran could respond meaningfully, Israel had destroyed 80 to 85 percent of Iran’s air defense architecture. Radars. Interceptors. Detection systems. Gone.
Iran was producing roughly 100 ballistic missiles per month before the war. That capacity is now close to zero.

The first 24 hours were double the firepower of the opening of the 2003 Iraq War.

Desert Storm opened with 150 targets. Epic Fury opened with 1,700.

The most sustained joint air campaign of the 21st century. By two countries.

A note to ex pilots, SOF guys, etc:

Maybe shut the fuck up about the intricacies of SERE training.

It’s great that the WSO was able to escape and evade, but you don’t have to tell everyone how.

CENTCOM Update

TAMPA, Fla. – As of 9:30 am ET, March 1, three U.S. service members have been killed in action and five are seriously wounded as part of Operation Epic Fury.

Several others sustained minor shrapnel injuries and concussions — and are in the process of being returned to duty. Major combat operations continue and our response effort is ongoing.

The situation is fluid, so out of respect for the families, we will withhold additional information, including the identities of our fallen warriors, until 24 hours after next of kin have been notified.
