On Wednesday, the Marine Corps took delivery of their first CH-53K King Stallion, the long awaited replacement for the branch’s troubled fleet of CH-53E Super Stallions. The new helicopter has the same basic footprint as its predecessor, but boasts the largest lift capacity of any helicopter ever to serve in the American armed forces — […]
Last week, SOFREP reported on a previously undisclosed breakdown of the Navy’s newest aircraft carrier, the USS Gerald R. Ford, that took place in during sea trials in January of this year. The issue, determined to be a manufacturing defect in the GE sourced main thrust bearings, resulted in two separate breakdowns, the second of […]
Mike Pompeo, the newly confirmed Secretary of State for the United States, found himself singing a familiar tune to NATO allies in Brussels this past week: calling on America’s allies to meet their financial obligations to the alliance and cut their financial reliance on America’s defense apparatus. Each NATO member nation is required to devote […]
In today’s media climate, even the most ardent follower of the news could be forgiven for falling behind on the complex issues of the day. Between work, family, friends, and the other obligations that make up everyday life, it’s a miracle anyone has time to devote some thought and concern to the plight of civilians […]
Recently, President Trump renewed the call for the establishment of a new branch of the U.S. military dedicated specifically to space defense. This “space force” already passed a vote in Congress as a part of their fiscal year 2018 defense budget, but was removed when that measure was reconciled with the Senate’s own budget legislation. […]
For months now, the U.S. Navy has been scrambling to find ways to increase the operational range of the aircraft employed on American Ford and Nimitz class supercarriers. Despite the variety of programs underway, the catalyst for each has been the same: the threat posed by advanced anti-ship ballistic missiles being fielded by national level […]
When President Donald Trump signed the National Defense Authorization Act in December, he did more than secure a funding increase for the American Defense Department, he made the establishment of a 355 vessel U.S. Navy a part of formal national policy. That provision, however, came with a significant caveat: no one seems to know how […]
When President Trump signed the National Defense Authorization Bill back in December, he not only put the largest defense budget in history into action, he also made the building of a “355 ship Navy” part of the formal national policy. That provision, championed by Senate Seapower Subcommittee Chairman Roger Wicker and Rep. Rob Wittman, mandated […]
Yet another deadly crash on Friday evening brought the total number of American service members to die during routine aircraft operations last week to seven, as a rash of recent incidents have reignited concerns about the dismal state of readiness the U.S. military has found itself in. An AH-64E Apache crashed at approximately 9:50 p.m. […]
According to a new internal assessment produced by the U.S. Air Force, the branch may be forced to cut their plans for a fleet of F-35 Joint Strike Fighters by more than a third due to the high cost of operating and maintaining the aircraft. While this report does not represent anything close to a […]
The United States has been among the most proficient adopters of drone technology for the battlefield of any national level military. The CIA was using drones for surveillance over conflict ridden areas as far back as the year 2000, and racked up the nation’s first confirmed kill with an unmanned aircraft only two years later, […]
In statements given before a group of Marines and journalists at Marine Corps Air Station Miramar, in San Diego, last week, President Trump announced that he believed the nation may need to establish a space-specific branch of the military in order to best defend America’s assets in orbit. While the concept has been brought up […]
