You've often heard the refrain "No single weapon system will be a game changer."
US intelligence has become the clear game changer in Ukraine's successes by enabling constant and effective strikes deep inside Russia.

Can it hit Fordow? I'm not sure.

”Russian Navy has likely begun escorting crude oil tanker Sirtaki through the Gulf of Finland.”
”The risk of miscalculation is high and with Russia closely monitoring its interests and demonstrably paving the way for confrontation, the next intervention could result in a more kinetic exchange.”

France acknowledges the loss of an Indian Rafale, per CNN. According to the images circulating, which appear to be original, it may have been the first of 36 Rafale that entered service in the Indian air force. Next question is whether it was hit by a Chinese PL-15 missile.

Last night, Ukrainian drones struck deep inside Russia, targeting a key facility in Saransk—the only plant producing optical fibers critical for Russia’s fiber-optic drones. This could disrupt their military comms and control.

Wasn't there once a Swedish alternative?🤔
The Swiss population doesn’t want to buy the F35 anymore, given everything that’s going on in Trump’s US.
In 2020, a 50,1% majority had voted for the acquisition in a referendum.

This is impressive, even though this was demonstrated (with a Minuteman missile no less) already in the seventies.
🇺🇸 The US conducted test of the Aegis missile defense system, which is installed on the Arleigh Burke-class destroyer.
During the test, a two-stage ballistic missile was dropped with parachutes from a C-17 Globemaster cargo plane, after which it was launched directly in the air.
