U.S. Air Force pararescueman Staff Sgt. Aaron Metzger was awarded the Bronze Star with valor last week for his actions during combat operations in Afghanistan last year. The special operations Airman assigned to the 38th Rescue Squadron (RQS) withstood significant injuries from both small arms fire and grenade shrapnel during an hours-long firefight that Metzger […]
One of the things movies always get wrong about firearms is how water will affect the way a bullet travels. Even in the otherwise-almost-too-real “Saving Private Ryan,” bullets are shown flying through water almost exactly as they do in the air: on a straight trajectory and with a lethal amount of kinetic energy. The truth […]
Late last week, Iran‘s troubled space program attempted a rocket launch that was met with failure. This didn’t come as a significant surprise to many in the national security community, as Iran‘s space program (which many believe is little more than a thinly veiled missile program) only began in 2004 and only reached orbit for […]
As of Monday morning, Hurricane Dorian was continuing to batter parts of the Bahamas with its category 4 winds while already turning its sights toward Florida. Hurricane warnings were issued throughout Florida days ago, but as the massive storm moves toward the mainland U.S., communities throughOUT Georgia and the Carolinas have already been issued evacuation […]
For many of us from the conventional side of the military (or who never served at all) the FN Scar tends to carry with it a certain appeal. As a rifle designed specifically for Special Operations troops (SCAR actually stands for Special Operations Forces Combat Assault Rifle), it’s hard not to look at the jagged angles […]
Throughout nearly two full decades of combat, the special operations community has seen a dramatic shift in employment and operational tempo. Unlike in traditional wars, where special operations troops might be reserved for very specific mission parameters, the War on Terror has brought with it unique challenges that America’s Special Operations war fighters are uniquely […]
It’s not at all uncommon to find articles breaking down the proper techniques you should employ when clearing your home, just like it’s easy to find articles discussing and debating what the best possible firearms are for that specific (and dangerous) set of circumstances. I love reading these pieces and participating in the dialogue they […]
SpaceX has once again released a video that sort of makes it seem like the science fiction of the 1950s had it right with its sleek, metallic rockets taking off and landing vertically on their fins. This time, with a groundbreaking test of a platform they’ve dubbed “Starhopper.” Starhopper is meant to serve as a […]
I like liking things. That may sound like a weird way to start a piece about Hollywood and wounded veterans, but in today’s upvote/downvote culture full of people looking for an impetus for their next trending outrage, it seems like an important distinction to make. Sure, I’ve been blessed with the salty-cynicism of a Marine […]
Only weeks after Russia announced that it would be giving its dying fifth generation fighter a new lease on life (in the form of plans to actually produce 76 of the aircraft), Russian President Vladimir Putin has been spotted peddling the fighter to Turkey’s President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. This sales pitch has been seen by […]
The U-2 is among America’s most legendary military aircraft, along with the likes of groundbreaking planes like the SR-71 Blackbird and F-117 Nighthawk. First flown all the way back in 1955, this high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft has a service record that stretches across six decades, and although talk of the U-2’s retirement has been around for […]
When it comes to rifle optics, one could boil your options down into three potential categories: optics without magnification, optics with fixed magnification, and optics with variable degrees of magnification. For years now, the U.S. Army and Marine Corps have utilized Trijicon ACOG that is theoretically good for up to 800 meters but offers only […]
