    Desert Storm is a taste, an appetizer, for how a combined NATO war would go.

      But that was a combined nato operation. Even though america sent almost 700k, Saudi Arabia sent up to 100k soldiers. Canada sent like 5000 soldiers. Like it was everyone... thats 1 of the reasons it was so fast. Another reason was "stormin Norman". Another reason was AIR DOMINANCE or AIR SUPREMACY or what ever they called it to say we owned 100% of the air. There were many reason, many moving parts, from all over, that made desert storm such a success in such a small time.

    Branches are judicial, legislative, executive. The US did have light tanks in Nam, the M551 Sheridan. The propellants were shit, it was caseless and they would separate which rendered the round useless. The M163 was also used, mainly as a convoy escort - was great to mow the lawn. I'd love to meet up with you if you decide to see the USS New Jersey. Why they chose Camden to put the boat at I will never understand. Thankfully Camden is doing better then it did before.

    Keep in mind that the AIM-174 comes from the SM-6, which has the seeker of the AIM-120 (AMRAAM).
    As such, it provides it's own terminal guidance.
    This is one of the best features and what allows for "over the horizon" shots with the the AIM-120/SM-6.
    They only need "situational" target tracks to get it to the target zone. The initial sensor does not need to provider a target grade track solution.

    Main stream media vetted? Almost all of it is AT BEST slanted one way for political reasons. Cars are EMP shielded too. They tested something like 20 car in the big EMP valley with big wooden platform to see what an EMP would do. I think it shut down all the cars. Half restarted and ran fine, the other half needed the battery disconnected to reset the computer. Not one was destroyed.
    What are your thoughts on the CHAMP? I do want to see replacements of the Stinger and the Hellfire. I also love the PrSM, AIM-260, and the Peregrine missile looks fun. The SDB-2 is nice. The Tomahawk and JASSM (and the rapid dragon) rock. I also live the Arleigh Berke, the Wasp/America (with F-35B and Osprey). I also LOVE the US laser systems. By 2035 the US is going to have some mighty systems. Think of Grandpa Buff with a 500kw laser on board. It could fly over Russia all day long and they could not touch them. I also have been impressed with the F-35.

      of course they survived the EMT with no computer damage
      they want you to ignore the fact that the ECU in EVERYTHING
      with fuel injection has a SAT update mechanism such that
      it can be shutdown with an update if payments are not made
      also Ford applied for a patent to self drive the vehicle back to
      the dealership AFTER it annoys the driver with no stereo or
      LOUD stereo...wipers that won't turn off...ANY THING tied
      into the ECU...thus...if the dealership needs more maintenance
      money AT ANY TIME they can trigger a malfunction or any
      system...50 bytes of additional code makes it intermittent...
      this was accomplished with these main technologies:
      (1) ipV6 tied to VIN
      (2) Fractal Antennas
      (3) System on a chip
      (4) Flash memory (non-volatile rewritable storage)
      (5) 2008 auto manufacturer's bailout money
      This has been hinted at in TWO TV series
      (1)
      (2) CSI CYBER
      and a half dozen movies
      The American Dream is not dead

    Ok, a few errors Grasshopper;
    1. light tanks;
    M41Walker Bulldog, 23
    4 tons, missed Korea as it was in development stage but did serve in Vietnam, which was followed by the M551 Sheridan. No new light tank SINCE.
    2. M10 Booker; having been a tanker (almost called you STUMP), how could you forget your basic armor vehicle recognition amd type casting?? Its NOT a Light Tank. Its an Assault Gun, just like the M1128 MGS was.
    My prediction? It will go the same way the MGS did, and for the same reasons; nobody wants to get their hands dirty doing the required maintenance . Want proof? Got to B block at Leavenworth Penitentiary and ask the FORMER commamder of 8/1Cav out of Fort Lewis why he's there.
    3. SYRYKER IS NOT A VIABLE PLATFORM. Ok, for what? It was meant to be a stopgap between the army divesting itself of the 113 and the Bradley's replacement. 20 plus years on, all any of us who've helped field and maintain it for big army have ever heard is nothing but whining about how its not heavy enough, its not tracked, it doesnt have a 25mm, ITS NOT A BRADLEY , ad infinitum.
    As a replacement for that rolling crackerbox of a 113, its light years ahead. Its sole purpose was battle taxi, just like 113. Wanna point the finger? Go yap at Shinseki. He's the one who got you into this. Hes also the reason you dont have Crusader, Net Centric Warfare, and several other programs that got canceled due to bloat.
    My employer has worked hand in glove with TACOM and Big Army to make the SYRYKER platform meet demands. Weve watched our humble apc balloon from 38000 lbs in original configuration to the DVH A1 which STARTS at 51000 and GOES UP. In the process we've given it a bigger and more robust power plant and driveline, twice, as well as adding a turreted 30mm for 2SCR, more electrical power increase.

Like most of them are just real aircraft or concept aircraft with slight changes. One of them is a near 1:1 F35 except the rear stabilizers are turned into Canards and it’s called the F45.
