I think that China could do absolutely untold damage to the American psyche and illusion of invulnerability if it simply instantly obliterated these clowns on Taiwan from hundreds of kilometers away with a cloud of drones dense enough to block out the sun. America treats the navy seals like they are all Master Chief, when in reality they are just guys who can carry a log and swim for a long time or some shit. Maybe that matters when you’re like… raiding a compound of a guy who has been on the run for decades while he’s asleep with Neon Genesis Evangelion playing on the TV, but genuinely what are these guys going to do to actually fight back against China? China will never even let them see a single PLA soldier lmao.
any good non-chud (and preferably non-lib) channels or podcasts etc out there about the like?
I’m afraid I know just enough about it to know I don’t know much about it. It gets deep in to the weeds with things like spoofing GPS satellite signals to fool GPS guided drones, drones that use intertial navigation and image recognition so they can’t be interrupted if they lose their command signal, shooting combat drones down with shotguns. I’m sure there’s scads of good information out there, but I don’t have any of it handy.
Damn, I was hoping we had a War-Nerd-but-tankie out here somewhere
Idk if they’ve done an episode on it but The War Nerd would be one of my go-to places to look. They definitely know enough people to know someone who knows how this works.
Millennium 7 * HistoryTech is a pretty good non-chud channel for the technical aspects military tech
