I just unfollowed about a hundred people (a lot of them inactive accounts) and am a little dizzy from the terrible interface for that so… if I unfollowed you please assume I did it by mistake and did not intend to hurt your feelings.

The Houthis may not want to again be bombed, so no attacks.

mwi.westpoint.edu/dod-3-0-reboot… Another Army-centric DoD solution masquerading as a successor to the current joint force. Goldwater Nichols was implemented as Army-centric. The next version of DoD needs and air/sea/space battle focus.

There now seem reasons why the initial price tag for these ships was so low; being built largely outside Denmark, in a yard about to close, and with recycled weapons and sensors. It looks like this class never completed a combat systems integration?

Looks like they forgot to pack sunscreen.

We need those 20 frigates to help rebalance away from an all-DDG 51 force, along with LCS.

Did the Houthis shoot at them?

Honored to deliver the 1st keynote at the Current Strategy Forum of U.S. Naval War College this am. My subject: Mahan’s Legacy, Great Books & Maritime Strategy!

gov.uk/government/pub… I wonder why Sir Humphrey Appleby was not properly credited as one of this document's authors. It certainly has his "administrative" style about it. Once upon a time UK Defence Reviews were short and too the point: margaretthatcher.org/document/121307

China's navy has not fought a fleet-sized battle since this time.

A new book coming out later this winter. I contributed a chapter comparing Starfleet Academy to the US Naval Academy.

His is indeed a great story! Corruption in the Chinese Navy at that time incredible!

The Navy must get the frigate fixed as well, as it cannot be an all-DDG Navy

These PLAN carriers are not really "deployed," in the way that the USN deploys its carriers. Its more like US carriers operating in the Caribbean.

Great to join my boss Admiral James G. Foggo, USN (ret.) & colleague Lazarus to talk about strategic theory Check out the latest episode of Maritime Nation 👇 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/fou…

The U.S. Navy faces multiple global threats with an aging fleet. The Navy has been unable to build ships fast enough to replace retiring vessels. Brent D. Sadler #USNavy

Worth a listen, from Mahan and Corbett to JC Wylie and beyond!

The "overweight" point is questionable. The US version of FREMM is longer and wider than the original, and as such would imply a larger displacement from the start. Too many changes from the basic design, and the delay and costs caused by those are the chief problems.
