One of my "favorite" stories of that is CVN-76. Russ Feingold was in Congress in the 90s saying "guys, the Navy doesn't even want this thing, and even in a two theater war, we can get along fine with 5 or 6 supercarriers instead of 12."

It goes ahead anyway. Do you know what they named that monument to fiscal conservatism? The USS Ronald Reagan.

A community for your defence shitposting needs

Rules

Be niceDo not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.
Explain incorrect defense articles and takesIf you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a “credible” source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it’s non-credible. Random twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Low Hanging Fruit thread.
Content must be relevantPosts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.
No racism / hatespeechNo slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.
No politicsWe don’t care if you’re Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.
No seriouspostingWe don’t want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.
No classified materialClassified information is off limits regardless of how “open source” and “easy to find” it is.
Source artworkIf you use somebody’s art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art’s source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.
No low-effort postsNo egregiously low effort posts. These include Social media screenshots with a title punchline / no punchline, recent (after the start of the Ukraine War) reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Low effort thread instead.
Don't get us bannedNo brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a “haha people that I hate died… haha” punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.
