We have incredible engravers in this country, but these days all they really get to do for detail work are security features. It's kind of sad.

Fun Fact: The engraver of that $10 MPC note is a guy named Len Buckley. He's apparently been on death's door for several years and spends his days signing these shaky-handed inserts for coin grading company PCGS. There has to be thousands of these things out there

The Indian depicted on that $10 note was big-time Lakota Chief Hollow Horn Bear who fought at Little Big Horn and later negotiated with Teddy Roosevelt.

They only do stuff like this for bullion releases from the West Point mint these days.

That gold coin is incused meaning the engraved features go into the coin instead of being raised above the surface. I think that was that last time the US Mint tried. Canada puts out an occasional incuse Maple Leaf.

1) The people who are writing the show are anti-Trump
2) it is getting annoyingly political
3) a scene happened where the guy that is representing essentially Hitler Superman and is being compared to Trump executes somebody publicly
4) they are trying to imply that Trump supporters want to kill their opposition
5) a man was publicly executed in real life and the only people cheering were the people that were on the side of the show writer

I don't think you understand what I am confused about, but that's okay because that only shows how incomprehensible the tweet is.

Maybe the USA shouldn’t be bombing ordinary little boats in foreign waters? If they are carrying drugs, it’s not their business until it reaches the USA.

All Trump has done is start yet another war while not reducing the number of people on drugs.

Useless bastard. I hope he dies before he does more damage.

Non-American anti air worked plenty well to make US struggle for air supremacy in Yemen. It was such a humiliation that Trump ordered all attacks stopped so he could try to negotiate for peace

Because air superiority doesn't mean shit if you can't secure stuff on the ground. Israel bet everything on air superiority and it cost them heavily when the Gaza war started where the IDF military doctrine made capturing then holding assets on the ground impossible.

My point is that US's production lines remain inadequate.

Also, the numbers cited are relevant if US intends to do a ground invasion

How? Venezuela doesn't have a BM program. THAAD is irrelevant here. The US cannot build enough THAAD missiles to restock until 2027 but that doesnt matter in this case.

Americans often do not appreciate this but the US military outclasses every other military. In 1991, the American military took on the Iraqi military which had 10 years of active combat experience against Iran and were the 5th largest military in the world.

It took a 5 week air campaign and a 4 day ground assault for the Americans and coalition to destroy the Iraqis.

Oh, look at me, I spent $1 billion dollars on another war, instead of doing anything about Judges making it legal for trannies to rape women.

governments can do multiple things at once

Using THAAD in real combat is worth the money spent on it because it allows for adjustment of strategy
Click to expand...
Yeah, bro, it's really cool blowing through two decades worth of production just because Israel wanted to kill some sandniggers. Unless the "adjustment of strategy" is "maybe we should actually start making shit for our military war needs"

It would mostly be RIM-66's from destroyers doing shoot downs over the water anyway. They're old but reliable enough. Aircraft would bomb shit. Marines and special ops would gank Maduro

Someone's testy because their fent got nuked.

It will take US 417 years to make enough of their interceptors to counter those 5000 missiles. Well, technically 429 years if we want to replenish the losses in Iran war. That's assuming they even intercept the missiles, because they don't always succeed (though it still has a very high success rate).

Who the fuck uses missile interceptors against SAMs?

Also "What is SEAD/DEAD, Alex?". If you let the enemy fire their SAMs at you you're doing it wrong.
