Off topic but I think the Japanese were being a little racist with the game Mario brothers but I guess sumo brothers wouldn’t have sounded right

Well, the only two facts are that the carrier did a 90 turnaround and a sailor has been killed. Can both facts be linked?.
Maybe something exploded in kitchens but, really, something is wrong when it operates far away from the coast and does this kind of radical maneouvers. CENTCOM shown pictures of USS Lincoln with Super Hornets over the deck carrying 5 external fuel pods!!!!.

There's a reason why you can't ignore the moderators.not going to lie that’s why i tend to filter out the extremes on either side if I only had button to ignore a couple of moderators this thread would be perfect
Then again, follow the forum rules and it's unlikely there will be a need for a moderator to follow you.

Carriers do NOT do 90 degree turns like that. That photo was literally a near-perfect right angle.
If you've ever seen footage of carriers going through evasive maneuvers during acceptance trials, you'll see that they aren't turning 90 degrees like that. They just aren't capable.

For those curious here is the documented wave history of Iran firing to Israel the past several days
Sunday: around 10 waves
Monday: 5 waves
Tuesday: 16 waves
Wednesday: 8 waves
Thursday: 10/11 waves
Some waves carrying 1 missile, some waves carry 2-3. I have seen as high as 5, but that is rare and unconfirmed
Assuming just 1 missile per wave - 50 missiles in 5 days and 1.5 missile per wave puts you around 75 missiles
Assuming a conservative 1-2 interceptors per missile (non-Iron dome) then Israel expended 50 to 150 interceptors in last 5 days.
In 10 days (next Trump “deadline”), if the fire rate continues, Israel may have expended another 300 interceptors (non Iron dome). Assuming it even has that much left.

I am pretty sure Iran easily can recruit another couple million from all the Muslims from around the world irrespective of sect.
what part of earth penetrating nuclear warhead don't you get?
The warhead detonates after it penetrates into the ground. It doesn't explode in the air. It's a 400 kiloton warhead it can be dialed down to 10 kiloton. But at 10 kiloton it injects unspent radioactive plutonium straight into the ground (dirty bomb)
Zone 1, a 10 mile radius of the blast zone will result in 1,000+ rads/hr lasting 72 hours which means death in minutes due to unprotected exposure. It remains at dangerous levels for two weeks i.e the crew will have to survive in their advanced protective gear for two weeks without taking it off for eating, drinking or using the rest room. Unless they have lead shielded rest rooms and dining halls down there.
Congress commissioned a study for the B61-11 titled "Effects of Nuclear Earth-Penetrator and other weapons" available to the public at the NRC website.
I agree, I rather we never started any of this in the first place. But we have leadership on both sides that are hell bent on pushing the boundaries of logic and reasonableness.

I've said before on another forum and likely here was well of being impressed how the Turks have become self-sufficient in a number of areas and reduced their dependence on US-supplied weapons.

This is the actual match up I want to see Iran definitely held up far better than anyone here no matter what their bias against Iran may be but turkey has the most capable military overall the only things they lack are stealth fighters(waiting 5 to 10 years on a truly finished product with dozens in play) and nuclear weapons of their own which if I have to bet they could build one fairly quickly if they chose to if they thought western countries would drop them like a bad crack habit for Israel

Because the price keeps going up and affects everything else. Trump is manufacturing these bs statements in order to get the investors being hopeful that things are getting better. In reality, the Strait of Hormuz is closed for the countries that support the aggression, and the prices aint going down anytime soon.
