Ukraine Modifies UAV Into FPV Strike Drone ‘Aircraft Carrier’

#Video posted of drone belonging to the #Ukrainian electronic technology specialist Serhii Beskrestnov, best known under the pseudonym “Serhii Flash,” showed how the Ukrainian designed and manufactured #Dovbush T10 unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) has been modified to carry and launch up to six first-person view (FPV) kamikaze #drones.

Continued thread

In #AircraftCarrier “ready rooms,”where flight squadrons spend their time when not in the air, crews burn instructions to destroy them.
“It’s important to understand the degree that #OPSEC is involved in every aspect of your life on an aircraft carrier. Red Sea ops are conducted in complete silence—no one is talking on the radio. Because everything can be heard by somebody,”said fmr #Navy Capt Joseph Capalbo, who commanded a carrier air wing & 2 F/A18 squadrons, referencing operational security.

MAGA Mike Johnson was on FOX talking about the US economy and stuttered through the following statement:

"The adults are back in the room, and we're going to turn this economy around. We need a little runway to do it... I keep using this metaphor of an aircraft carrier, you know, it took decades to get into the mess that we're in. You don't turn an aircraft carrier on a dime, but you need miles of open ocean to do it"

Given his position in the government, I am sure he should know more about US Aircraft carriers. They can turn on a dime, and what's more, even at 30 knots they don't need miles of open ocean to turn, they are almost as nimble as a Seadoo when they want to be!

The USS Abraham Lincoln has a message for your shitty metaphor, Mike.

Seriously, is the #ShahidBagheri a #shitpost or does #Iran actually demand to be taken seriously with an #AircraftCarrier design that was already obsolete 100 years ago

  • You know a nation is detached from reality when it's self-defense and launch capabilities are being laughed at by 123 year old Japanese Carriers with wooden decks!

Like if someone were to pay me €25M (50% in advance) I'm shure I could "clack" that thing with my scuba gear and a timer'd load!
