- I dunno the Japanese Shinto priest blessing an F-35 was pretty cool.
One thing about international F-35 rollout ceremonies is that they're gonna be cringe as hell - Rare image of the Ukrainian pilot who carried out the strike on Luhansk earlier with a supposed Storm Shadow cruise missile
- 22 reapers and 3 Super Hornets lost during an operation against a militant group with no Air Force...Breaking: Another F/A-18 Super Hornet fighter jet from the USS Harry S. Truman aircraft carrier has been lost in the Red Sea after it suffered an arrestment failure while trying to land. 2 aviators ejected, were recovered by helo with minor injuries. cnn.com/2025/05/06/pol…
- There's something to be said about the US military operating in such a way that open source aviation tracking enthusiasts are looped into an effort to signal serious military strikes against another nation.B-2 stealth bombers under the callsigns MYTEE11 FLT and MYTEE21 FLT-estimated to include 4 to 6 stealth bombers-departed Whiteman Air Force Base overnight.

00:14Did Ohio State vs Michigan just have a passenger flight do their flyover? I’m so confused. - I think the biggest takeaway from the military confrontation between India and Pakistan is that Pakistan simply got lucky that India held its big chungus UAV bombers in reserve.
- The rapid onset of storm surge from #HurricaneIda could be seen this morning from Grand Isle, Louisiana. If you're being told to shelter in place during a storm by local authorities, don't risk it, you could be overtaken quickly in a matter of hours as shown here.
00:00 - Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickham is absolutely stuffed with ships for RIMPAC 22 right now.
