Very sad #Submarines anniversary this #SubSunday🕯️ On Eternal Patrol. #OTD 3 years ago, the Indonesian Navy's Type 209/1300 Cakra-class diesel-electric attack submarine KRI Nanggala (402) was reported missing in the waters 100km north of Bali, after missing a radio check-in.…

@tshugart3 Absolutely. High school's lost a lot of rigor & interest in the last 30 years. A lot of teen guys feeling freer, in an America awash in wealth, to effectively drop out, even though they're very smart. HS doesn't correlate any better than college now, w/smarts or ambition.
@tshugart3 That’s true for lots of rates besides the nuke ones
@tshugart3 ADHD is another issue. I had severe ADHD issues, pegged the as an and nearly every standardized test. Struggled with the classroom setting.
I can tell you with confidence that a fair number of them are sitting at U.S. Navy submarine reactor control panels. Lots of enlisted nukes are really smart folks who just didn’t care enough to get good grades or dropped out of college and signed up, then pegged the ASVAB. ⚛️

April 21st 1982: Costa Mendez sends a message to Al Haig: “You are aware that Argentina is willing to continue negotiations... As has been remarked so many times, the result must include a recognition of Argentine sovereignty over the Islands... (continues)
25/25 The hook here is the following -- What is near impossible for the 1st generation of engineers is merely difficult for the 2nd and is easy for the 3rd... ...and the electronic/software technological generations drone combat power is based upon are 18 months.
24/Armenia is a low to medium threat IADS and both Turkey and Israel have operated in a S-300 protected Syrian air space. Whether Israel or Turkey are providing the Azeri regime SMAC style munition planning support is less relevant than the fact it is happening at all.
23/...A "Kaliningrad class" threat with a S-400 takes longer and requires five simulation runs with the best threat data for a 70% effective target engagement. SMAC planned the Shayrat Airbase attack on 7 April 2017 and both 14 April 2018 attacks on Barzah & Him Shanshar.
22/Unclassified metrics presented to the Association of Old Crows -- SMAC did 1700 JASSM targets worth of route planning in FY2017. A "Medium threat" environment like Syria prior to the S-300 deployment was two days and two full simulation runs for a 90% effective to strike.
21/...support that provides drone evasive routing through the Armenian IADS. There is a US military model for this kind of support. See: Standoff Munitions Application Center, Barksdale AFB, LA U.S. Air Force Fact Sheet 8af.af.mil/Units/Standoff…
20/What is happening to Armenian air defenses is that the RCS of drones are innately small and the Azeris are getting outside C4ISR support. The execution of Armenian air defense argues that we are seeing ELINT & SIGINT location of those assets with mission planning software..
19/"The Radar Game..." also points out that pulse doppler radars also have a coverage 'notch' that will deny a missile shot because the doppler shift does not provide a good track.
