IMAGES: USAF sends B-52 bombers to Indian Ocean base
Fernando Valduga By Fernando Valduga 03/26/2024 - 16:00 in Military, War Zones
U.S. Air Force B-52H Stratofortresses bombers were deployed on March 22 at the Diego Garcia Naval Support Center in the Indian Ocean.
Tumblr media
The Bomber Task Force deployment offers the U.S. Air Force Global Attack Command a presence in the Indo-Pacific, with relatively easy access to the Middle East as well.
Tumblr media
The B-52s fled to Diego Garcia from Barksdale Air Base, Louisiana, after a 30-hour direct flight. This is the first time that USAF announces a Bomber Task Force for Diego Garcia - a small island that is part of the British Indian Ocean Territory that serves as a fundamental base for the U.S. and UK military, which has hosted American troops since the 1970s. The B-1 landed there in 2021, and the last time a B-52 landed there was in 2020.
Tumblr media
"This deployment aims to improve the readiness and training needed to respond to any potential crisis or challenge around the world, demonstrating the credibility of our forces to face a global security environment that is more diverse and uncertain than at any other time in recent history," the Pacific Air Forces Command (PACAF) said in a statement.
Tumblr media
Although the island is in the area of responsibility of the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command, the U.S. Air Force used the island in the past as a base to send bombers to the U.S. Central Command's area of operations.
Tumblr media
This latest deployment of PACAF bombers follows in the footsteps of the B-52 of Minot Air Base, North Dakota, deployed in Guam at the end of January and operating there until March 6.

So the Ukraine stuff is really corporate welfare. Because I am sure the defense contractor shareholders & executives whose companies supply the parts (employing cheap foreign labor & materials) are not spending their dividends and bonuses on imported toys or vacations abroad, oh no, they are definitely all Big Three drivers who shop local for their groceries. /sarcasm Argue for helping Ukraine on its merit, without the fallacious upsell. The whole "broken windows create wealth" parable is crap.
Let's see:
HIMARS are made in Camden, Arkansas
The GLSDB are jointly made by Boeing and Saab in the US and Sweden
The M1 Abrams is made at the Joint Systems Manufacturing Center in Lima, Ohio.
The Bradley is manufactured in York, PA
Huh, looks like your "cheap foreign labor" thing is BS, what a surprise.
I do argue for Ukrainian aid on its merits. A cowed Russia offers significant deterrent value against other revisionist powers. I'm just putting to bed the stupid talking point that MTG and other morons state about how the money is being siphoned off by oligarchs by demonstrating that the actual cash is spent in the United States.
And, for the cherry on top, that's not the broken window fallacy. Learn about your economic falsehoods before trying again, pal.

Your Saab ourangutan meme reminded me of an exchange between a member of the British parliament and the head of the state-run British Overseas Airwars Corporation in the 50s. The MP was angry that BOAC was considering ordering the Boeing 707 over the Vickers VC10, arguing that BOAC as a state-owned enterprise should be supporting the native aircarft industry. The BOAC chairman said that it wasn't his job to bail out a struggling business out of a sense of patriotic duty, his job was to buy the best aircraft for the best price and supporting the previous home-grown jet airliner project had been a disaster (specifically referring to the de Havilland Comet). He ended up resigning after essentially being forced to buy the Vickers planes and making the company go into serious debt trying to bankroll the VC10 after it turned out that the design wasn't as sound as Vickers had led on and required extending the development cycle.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The VC-10 wasn't really a bad plane, it was just an overengineered behemoth that was meant to serve routes for an empire that didn't exist anymore, hence a focus on rough runway and poorly equipped airport operations, which made the plane heavier and more expensive to operate (and with less passengers and range) than the more streamlined 707, which always took into account flying from and into optimal airports, as Boeing engineers knew the world was modernizing for the jet age.

South Korea will upgrade the long-range mission capabilities of the F-15K fighter
The project, scheduled from 2024 to 2034, has a total budget of approximately US$ 2.89 billion.
Fernando Valduga By Fernando Valduga 03/23/2024 - 15:43in Military
The South Korean Air Force is launching the "F-15K performance improvement project" to improve radar systems and increase the long-range mission capabilities of its F-15K fighters.
The Defense Security Committee recently approved an acquisition plan to advance the project through foreign purchases, specifically the Foreign Military Sales (FMS) program, the Defense Acquisition Program Administration (DAPA) said in a statement on Friday.
The updates are expected to allow the F-15K to identify and attack targets, ensuring stable operational conditions, crucial for extended missions.
Tumblr media
The project, scheduled from 2024 to 2034, has a total budget of approximately US$ 2.89 billion.
Boeing unveiled plans in December 2023 to comprehensively upgrade South Korea's F-15K fleet. The improvement initiative targets three main areas: the installation of the advanced AN/APG-82 radar, reinforcing the cabin display capabilities and integrating the electronic warfare suite 'Eagle Passive/Active Warning and Survivability System' (EPAWS).
The decision to invest heavily in the F-15 fleet is aligned with the strategic objectives of South Korea, especially given the relatively young age of the jets, with an average of just over 14 years. Originally acquired under the FX program in the mid-1990s, the first batch of 61 F-15K entered service at the end of 2005 and continues to play a crucial role in the combat capabilities of the Republic of Korea Air Force RoKAF).
Tumblr media
The F-15K variant is suitable for long-range attack missions, including against reinforced North Korean targets.

United States to Provide Ukraine with Ground-Launched Small Diameter Bomb (GLSDB)
Recent developments indicate a forthcoming enhancement to Ukraine's military capabilities with the introduction of the Ground-Launched Small Diameter Bomb (GLSDB). On 14 October 2023, Boeing said that the GLSDB will be delivered to Ukraine by winter. On 30 November, it was reported that the delivery had been postponed to early 2024. This advanced munition, developed jointly by Boeing and Saab, boasts a striking range of up to 150 km, surpassing the capabilities of standard rocket projectiles like the GMLRS. Equipped with satellite guidance (GPS) and an inertial navigation system, the GLSDB ensures precise targeting, enabling Ukrainian forces to effectively engage Russian logistical lines and strategic targets deep within enemy territory.

Ukraine About to Receive a Long-Awaited Air-Gliding Weapon - Technology Org
New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/ukraine-about-to-receive-a-long-awaited-air-gliding-weapon-technology-org/
Ukraine About to Receive a Long-Awaited Air-Gliding Weapon - Technology Org
It was promised more than a year ago. It should have arrived last year already. But it is finally coming to aid Ukraine’s defensive effort.
Politico reported that after a long wait, Ukraine will soon receive the high-precision Ground Launched Small Diameter Bomb (GLSDB) from the United States. It seems that the GLSDB is already on its way to Ukraine and will start hitting Russian targets in just a few days. This is a special weapon that is not even in the arsenal of the US forces.
The GLSDB is launched by a rocket and then swiftly glides towards its target. Image credit: USAF via Wikimedia
Politico reported this on the basis of anonymous sources, but previously similar officially unpublished news has been proven to be true. Moreover, the arrival of GLSDB in the defence of Ukraine is not even a big surprise.
In fact, GLSDB is kind of already late. The USA announced back in February 2023 that it would provide Ukraine with this weapon. At one point it was said that the GLSDB will be in Ukraine by the end of 2023. From the very beginning, it was clear that Ukraine would have to wait, as the mass production of GLSDB had not even started yet. This is a completely new weapon, a joint creation of Boeing and Saab Group. By the way, Taiwan needs it very much too, but agreed to wait for longer to make more GLSDBs available for Ukraine.
The GLSDB is a gliding aerial bomb GBU-39 SDB paired with an M26 rocket. The rocket allows this bomb to be launched from the ground. Specifically, the GLSDB is launched by the HIMARS and M270 systems or a special container. The GLSDB has a range of about 150 kilometres – it flies further than the GMLRS missiles currently used by Ukraine’s HIMARS.
“It gives them a deeper strike capability they haven’t had, it complements their long-range fire arsenal,” the unnamed U.S. official said.

Of course, the impact of GLSDB in Ukraine will depend on how many such bombs the US can provide. Production is just starting so their number will certainly not be large. But with the GLSDB Ukraine will be able to cover a third of Crimea’s territory. In addition, Saab notes that the GLSDB is accurate to about one metre and is almost impossible for the Russians to shoot down.
Although the GLSDB takes off from the ground with the rocket, the bomb completes the final stage of its journey by gliding. It maneuvers, changes angles of attack, and makes turns. This means it has almost no IR signature to be picked up by Russian anti-aircraft missiles – a significant advantage over cruise missiles. Another advantage is the price. The M26 missiles are old and the US has a lot of them, making the GLSDB a much cheaper weapon than the new ATACMS or cruise missiles. The disadvantage of the GLSDB is a relatively small warhead, but its size is compensated by precision.
If Ukraine could get many GLSDBs, they would change many things. All major frontline positions could be attacked, Russian logistics lines could be stretched and all smaller and larger bases could be eliminated.
