    This is called economic degradation. Crazy in the White House and the Pentagon, instead of dealing with improving the welfare of ordinary Americans, finance the production of manure, calling it modern technology. And are killed people in all over the world.

    Even the fighter of the 5th generation is made defective. (Recently there was an article about defective spare parts for Tesla cars)

    I do not even want to talk about F35. This is a complete failure.

    The degradation of military development is the degradation of the economy. Dog hairdressers, lawyers and stock exchange speculators will not save the country's economy.

    What do you think about it?

    The military has always pretty much just been a way to funnel government money into scientific research and engineering without getting called commie. Well, that and a way to extract resources from third world countries, but that's beside the point

    I find myself wondering who gives you this silly material to propagate on social media. Does the troll factory have a research wing?

    Noticed that the Navy's Crappy Little Ship (CLS) does have its escort of three tugs for when it breaks down.

    Design is a flop, that’s true.

    It's bound to happen when innovating and trying out new designs with new capabilities. The Navy has also been making all sorts of demands that have probably made it too challenging to design successfully:

    I wouldn't mind that. I enjoy firing up GIMP and doing some light graphics editing for fun on occasion.

    Could someone please remind me of the US military's expected missions and combat environments in 2030, 2040, 2050?

    What are the weapons systems and tables of organization that are designed to accomplish those missions in those environments?

    We have a dozen heavy nuclear aircraft carriers. There aren't any others, in any navy. Why do we have them? Why doesn't anyone else?

    Do we know what we're doing?

    Aircraft carriers are a key to any large military offensive.

    The military budget is much easier to steal. You can always refer to secret operations. In addition, in 2016, the Pentagon could not was explain where spent $ 8 trillion.

    This is written by the American media? Do you read the news line? Or do you live in a wild environment?

    Apparently from the American Navy you have constipation. If you do not understand, the topic of the US Navy. If you want to talk about the Russian Navy, create a separate topic and we will analyze everything you want to know.

    I understand that you are embarrassed to talk about the American Navy. Therefore, you as a small child look for "shortcomings" in others. This is not uncommon. But if you develop your intellect, you can discuss the topic as an adult.
    I think for you 10 years of intensive development of brain activity will be enough that you could talk about adequate topics. Advice - you should read more. This will help you develop mental activity.

    If your military operations are designed for the Papuans. With another opponent, aircraft carriers are an excellent target, for example, for the "Caliber" missiles.

    This thread is absurd.

    Essentially, the military attempted to create an innovative design and it doesn't seem to be working to spec at present.

    And you leap in and somehow try to use that fact to point to the total degradation of America?

    LOL

    Military projects fail all the time. Sometimes they need decades to spit out the final product. Sometimes there is no such thing as a final product and innovation continues throughout it's lifespan. This is how all technology works. Investment into research trial and error. There's never been an organization on earth that tried to make new things and never failed. It seems your standard for America is either it's perfect or its falling into ruin.

    1. It's not I who wrote the article. The article is written by military experts.
    2. The degradation of the American economy is obvious to all who have a brain.
    3. Can you name which American products are the best in the world?
    (For example, in the 1950s, the United States was making some of the world's best cars, now it's dung.) Detroit: The 60th, 70th best motorcycles in the world were made by the US Now it's not. Guitars "Gibson", "Fender" production of the 50's is generally a legend.Now, Gibson is on the verge of bankruptcy .... etc)

    Check out this guy, judging the health of a service economy by whether or not it makes the best of some product.

    And forgets the fact that the US still is best at a number of categories and products, like technology and war
