The first capability jump will be the interoperability between the plane and the western weapons.
Some of the weapons (like the Harm missile) can only be used with limited functionality. But with F16 the weapon and plane can talk to each other and new features become available.
Additionally there are then .ore weapons that currently are not supplied by NATO that can also be supplied.
Medevac drone is a pretty cool utilization of drone tech. They can get close to the front and take a wounded soldier a bit off the front to be loaded in to an ambulance.
They will claim it to be Ukrainian air defense’s fault. Even in the face of overwhelming evidence. "Admit nothing, deny everything, and make counter-accusations"
It’s not our weapon
The evidence is fabricated
"If they would just stop defending themselves, the weapons would hit the actual targets"
I can say, unequivocally, if you’re starting a new game project, do not use Unity. If you started a project 4 months ago, it’s worth switching to something else. Unity is quite simply not a company to be trusted....
Yeah, this usual spiel. Equate the state of Israel to Judaism and then call everyone who criticizes a right wing government by calling them antisemitic.
Oh that’s nice “the creation of a truth and recovery commission offering amnesty to British security personnel and paramilitaries if they cooperate with its enquiries.”. So they go to the commission, fess up all their crimes and all is forgiven. (/s in case this was not apparent)
Elon Musk's financial interests put him in a position of having his own personal foreign policy, but new reporting shows that whether it's manufacturing in China or the Starlink network being used in Ukraine, Musk’s decisions can run counter to stated US policy.
Sure, if the government gives someone (limited) immunity then “fine”. But a promise of an official is worth nothing if not backed up by the proper legal framework. Else law enforcement will arrest someone wanted. This also works that way in the US.
Misi formation? It is exactly the point I made yesterday. Lula does not have the authority to do that. His country has laws and they are enforced by separate branches.
Only if he walks this immunity through the proper channels it’s worth something. And he now states that himself too.
I’ve definitely turned into the paranoid nutcase within my friend group in recent years, I hate that everything is “smart” nowadays requiring an app/internet connection & account, just to do basic things that didn’t require any of that before....

I think the major car companies should also be designated gatekeepers. The modern car is a driving data collection source for the major vendors, and it is high time they are reigned in too.
Multiple organizations exist in Russia to repress citizens. OMON and SOBR are those heavily armored guys you see arresting people on the red square and everywhere else in Russia. Only a split in the country that pulls in parts of the military on both sides seems to have any chance.
183 Stryker vehicles, more than half of them infantry carrier vehicles.
A little under 9 million a piece, not bad for the US. They are phasing them out.
New video by Andres Puck Nielsen… He discusses how Prigozin deaths and Girkins imprisonment have impacted russia and what this means for regimes ideology or lack thereof....
But Girkin is well positioned in the glass box. We would also like to welcome him to the Netherlands. I understand there is a room ready for him in Scheveningen.
It’s impressive that they included surveillance drone(s) in the strike package. Offcourse a good way to assess results, but even .ore damning for Russian air defense.
The thing is that if you are subsidizing the other end you are still interfering with the market.
I’ll bet you would dislike the government pulling back more and leaving even more to the morally bankrupt to abuse even less.
The government should be a strong regulator as a counterbalance as corporatations do not suffer repercussions for the worst externalities they produce.
This is just not true, 30mph/48Kmh on a pedal bike is for seasoned riders on specialized bikes, not for day to day use.
20mph/32kmh is already fast. In the Netherlands; a country with world class bike infrastructure, normal e-bikes are limited to 16mph/25kmh and this works for everyday use. Above that, the ebikes are speed pedelecs and require a helmet and a license plate. The pedelecs are used by people for their commute etc. usually on protected bike lanes separated from motorized traffic. The normal ebikes are sufficient for all other trips where interaction with motor traffic is more common.
Wanting to get from A to B quicker is risky in traffic, where you are very vulnerable as a cyclist, and we already see a uptick in accidents with bikes, and the amount of trauma riders get.
