Highly biased pro weapons and use of power. I expect them to be more nuanced and less "this is why we need more to do this mission. And it is 100% fine and no nuance entertained". It is jingoistic with the most rudimentary perspective about laws and the international situation.
Basically it's we love the military type show. Intellectually vapid. If you care about military tactics and operations but get smarter POV's on strategic thinking on other podcasts. then valuable. But it is so b... more
I have the utmost respect for Lt Gen Deptula and your crew but the discussion on small UAVs was unfulfilling because the way they are being used in the Ukraine and Iran conflicts gives completely new need for localized air defense which you failed to address effectively with existing doctrine and force application.
Mocking concerns of AI killing schoolchildren is such a despicable take. Lost a subscriber thanks to JDUMB. The host seems cool, and overall great info, but letting that type of casually atrocious S slide is reprehensible.
Hey team. Love the show. There was an episode a couple months ago regarding base defense. It was great from a strategic denial view. I haven’t seen much scholarship or press devoted to tactical and operational air base defense on the ground. (The USAF Security Forces mission sets). Do we think there’s no threat of small units of PRC or contracted militia origin who could impose casualties and loss on the hypothetically disbursed small bases across the pacific ? Are multi capable airmen ready fo... more
