We working on something powerful...😈😈The Navy is typically considered strong due to its ability to project power globally, control maritime domains, and provide a platform for power projection through aircraft carriers, submarines, and surface vessels. Naval forces possess significant firepower, the ability to transport and deploy troops, and the capacity to conduct various operations at sea.On the other hand, the Air Force is recognized for its air superiority capabilities, long-range strike capabilities, and its ability to control airspace. With advanced fighter aircraft, bombers, surveillance, and intelligence assets, the Air Force plays a critical role in maintaining control over the skies and supporting military operations.It's also worth noting that military strength should not be measured solely by the size of the force or the amount of equipment. Factors such as technological advancements, training, logistics, command and control structures, intelligence capabilities, and strategic partnerships all contribute to a military's overall strength.

DF-21D: China's Ultimate Weapon to Sink U.S. Navy Aircraft Carriers The DF-21D missile, part of China's strategic anti-area/access denial (A2/AD) arsenal, represents a pivotal component of Beijing's military posture against US naval power in the Indo-Pacific. Stemming from a long history of prioritizing innovative defense mechanisms, the DF-21D is designed to thwart US military influence near China's borders, particularly concerning

Defence iQ has announced the launch of their brand new conference, Surface, Air and Seabed Warfare (SASW) which will be taking place at the home of the Royal Navy, Portsmouth, on the 18 – 19 June 2024, where we will explore innovative solutions to transit capability gaps in naval operations. The conference will centre around the augmentation of warships through cutting-edge technology, positioning them as pivotal assets in the ever-evolving multi-domain battlespace. With the rise of potential higher-intensity conflicts and modern challenges such as autonomous systems, hypersonic capabilities, and the protection of critical undersea infrastructure, it is crucial to address these issues proactively.

From the story below: "Allied Spirit has folded into the string of large-scale exercises under the umbrella of Steadfast Defender, the new name for Defender Europe. That is a January-to-May series of exercises across the continent designed to test NATO’s new defense plans. The overall program will involve 90,000 troops from 31 nations with more than 50 naval assets, 90 air platforms and 1,100 combat vehicles, according to the Pentagon’s website."

I do think it is a frigate because of its size and the scope of its general capabilities. If ships designations were to be governed by political acceptance or wishfulness most ships would be patrol boats or APV:s. The Sw RN is better served by a correct ship type designation than by a politically correct one. Our Navy needs the self esteem that this new ship may bring about after its experience of diminutives in ship sizes as well as numbers.

US Navy Needs More Ships It Can Arm With Missiles: Congress - Business Insider https://lnkd.in/ebfwcGPh My take: The Navy can start by equipping ALL Independence class Littoral Combat Ships with Naval Strike Missile (NSM) AND move out on equipping the Freedom class with them as well or at least with Harpoon for the Freedom class, if NSM is not feasible due to availability or other reasons.

Introducing the C-Dome| Naval version of the Iron Dome last night it made its first operational interception in the Gulf of Eilat, proving its capability to protect Israel's economic waters from advanced threats. The C-Dome is installed on Sa'ar 6-class corvettes of the Israel Navy and integrated into the national aerial defense array, which includes the "Iron Dome", "David's Sling," "Arrow 2," and "Arrow 3" systems. This real-life interception mission showcased the system's effectiveness, not just in an exercise, but in an actual scenario. #IMDO

A groundbreaking milestone for the U.S. Navy with Lockheed Martin: an unprecedented flight test has just been achieved with the simultaneous launch of four Long-Range Anti-Ship Missiles (LRASM) 🚀🌊. This test underscores a significant leap in naval warfare capabilities. How do you think this will change the dynamics of naval defence? https://bit.ly/3xojwja #NavalInnovation #LRASM

Great catch by Isaac "Ike" Harris here. We see Iran using these militias for horizontal escalation to tie down US forces and sap our bandwidth. China already verges on complicity with this Barbary Pirates 3.0 activity. Plus, it has huge incentives to do nothing as its Axis of Revision partners conduct these malign activities that drain scarce US missile stockpiles. This Houthi activity is likely to continue even after the Gaza Conflict wanes because the group will have enormous incentive to impose six-figure "tolls" on shipping that are cheaper than passage around South Africa but still lucrative for their operations. It will be almost impossible for them to relinquish the power they've tasted from their operations thus far. I agree with Ike that "non state actors + advanced anti-ship weapons = several rough decades for maritime security and our Navy." We need a lot more missiles, a lot faster, and a lot cheaper.

France’s Naval Group to build 4 Barracuda-class #submarines for Dutch military, to replace their three aging Walrus-class boats. A precise cost for the submarines was not provided, but the Ministry of Defense told parliamentarians in a letter that the "investment budget" is $6.1 billion. The Dutch subs will carry US-made Tomahawk missiles. The first two boats should be operational between 2034 and 2037, with their Tomahawks providing a "niche capability within NATO and the EU." | https://bit.ly/491s64x ⚓ #submersibles #silentservice #defensecontractors #defenseindustry #nationalsecurity
