hi Ryan, I bought this month already. I live in China for 4 years. Chinese, like other peoples in developing countries, are people with great features: hard working, moral, & creative. Rather than fancy "kill web" & "corridors", personnel exchanges (e.g., visiting professors) and Chinese language lessons may be more effective. That is, empathy & friendship may deter a war better than weapons. Xi Jinping is powerful, but his power relies on the righteous might of Chinese people, who have both internet & VPNs. Chinese people like Chinese food, their family, & comfortable life, they aren't interested in military campaigns & are peaceful. For instance, Chinese people engages in war, but their enemy were "other Chinese" not foreigners. Chinese food requires a stationary kitchen, so military campaigns are yucky food events. For instance, my friend Zhu Tenggao dislikes crackers because they are "too dry", but my grandfather, a naval aviator, always ate saltines. Also, despite hot weather in Jiangxi, I never observed fist fights in China. Perhaps, Chinese grandparents from the Cultural Revolution (w/o formal education) "harmonized" their grandchildren, so fights are uncommon. If foreigners show concern & love for Chinese grandmas , I venture the people power of Chinese grandmas deter Xi Jinping. I know that your are a former heavy-weapons operator, cyber security expert, & middle-east linguist. I am ignorant of these things, so I learn from you. I am one person with one voice, but perhaps other Ryan McBeth subscribers give you similar advice. If so, please consider it.
In the real world, my concern is that the legalists in the military will insert themselves into the Kill Web and become the same impediment they were in Iraq and Afghanistan. Even a few seconds of delay can allow a target to escape, and inserting "approvals" into the "Decider" part of the Kill Web could really reduce the effectiveness of the scheme.
Please stop with the aggressive and escalating rhetoric... Nobody has to "defeat" china, or anyone apart from russia... Instead we only have to keep china in rein as good as possible. Surely they don't want to take over the world anyways, or does anyone really believe that they are as megalomaniac as Germany around the 1940s? Russia is the one that needs to be "defeated" ASAP instead, for what they're doing to Ukrainians.
This was a great video. The U.S. merchant fleet has been diminishing for years and the Pacific rim threat may reverse that. I would have to think the U.S. pacific territories (Midway, Wake, Johnson) and Okinawa, Australia; will take on new importance as supply chain bases. The PLAN still has a lot to learn about blue water operations, but I am sure they are endeavoring to do so.
I like how you illustrated logistics with a video of russian soldiers unloading coffins with "load 200" (dead troops) from the truck. (the inscription on the van says "eternal memory", belongs to the funeral company)
sounds great but knowing how much of a shit show the military can be im doubting their ability to pull this off... it only works when all the moving parts work together flawlessly

The Navy is working on the issue with reloading VLS cells at sea. Check this video from Sandboxx,

America’s superpower. Communications, cooperation, kill chain.
Interesting piece today, Ryan. Any relationship between the system you describe and the AI system supposedly being used in Israel for targeting?
