Blackice Security put this one out, and I figured I would get on the band wagon and put it out as well. My guess is that there will be a huge requirement for bodies on this contract, and many companies are looking at those numbers and making their moves.
As for VxL? […]

Furthermore, the introduction of sophisticated weapons (e.g., ATGMs, MANPADS) could radically escalate the challenges faced by U.S. forces in Afghanistan, as it did for the Soviet Union in the 1980s.

I love papers like this, because these are the kind of deals that ruffle the feathers of Tankers and Armor fans, as well as status quo military thinkers. Thanks to Small Wars Journal for publishing it. Basically, William has presented some excellent low cost hybrid warfare concepts that should be of great interest to the […]

This is funny, but it is also just weird. This is merchandise that is being sold with the intent of showing support for the assassination that happened in Dubai. Hell, even the eyeglasses that a few of the team members were wearing are selling. -Matt

This is a follow up to that article I posted about the Israeli’s rating their performance during the Second Lebanon War. A lot was learned from the mistakes of that war, and it is being studied intensely. How did Hezbollah do it, and how do you combat that?
Super empowered infantry and getting smaller is the […]
