Duran: US and China heading toward war over Taiwan; Top general of US Air Force admits $122 million-each F-35 fighter jet a total failure

Spread the love

Taiwan is the tiny feather-shaped island in the southeastern corner of this map. With 23 million inhabitants, Taiwan is a tiny mouse compared to Red China with its 1.4 billion citizens, a 48 times greater number.

Russia and China are now sharing military technology and have developed a gigantic trade across their long common border, with Russia possessing exactly the raw materials, hydroelectric power, and oil and gas which China needs and can easily pay for with its booming, efficient, negro-free economy and anti-woke insistence on hard work. Both countries can now laugh at US “sanctions.”

I ran this video a few days back but its importance leads me to run it again:

The Duran men’s guest, “Captain Redpill,” says he expects a US-China WAR by next summer, possibly during the 2022 Winter Olympics in China.

Wiki:

The 2022 Winter Olympics, officially known as the XXIV Olympic Winter Games and commonly known as Beijing 2022, is an international winter multi-sport event that is scheduled to take place from 4 to 20 February 2022, in Beijing and towns in the neighboring Hebei province, China. Wikipedia
Dates: Fri, Feb 4, 2022 – Sun, Feb 20, 2022

Alex Mercouris agrees, and says the Demoncrats will want to win the 2022 mid-terms by starting a supposedly patriotic, nation-unifying war. The trigger might be getting Taiwan to declare its independence from China.

……and just why should China fear Jewmerica?

The $750 billion Pentagon budget IS huge, and might scare Grenada, but Beijing and Moscow know it is full of pork, waste and weapons that are sinfully expensive and too complicated to work!

The US Air Force Quietly Admits the F-35 Is a Failure

The Air Force has announced a new study into the tactical aviation requirements of future aircraft, dubbed TacAir. In the process of doing so, Air Force chief of staff General Charles Q. Brown finally admitted what’s been obvious for years: The F-35 program has failed to achieve its goals. There is, at this point, little reason to believe it will ever succeed.

*** JdN: Trump appointed Brown in 2020. No matter what the Russians or Chinese SAY, they look down on Blacks as apes, and despise the US as a fool for putting them in responsible positions. Their word “zaibuo” means “crazy white liberal.

***

According to Brown, the USAF doesn’t just need the NGAD (Next Generation Air Dominance) fighter, a sixth-generation aircraft — it also needs a new, “5th-generation minus / 4.5th-generation aircraft.” Brown acknowledged some recent issues with the F-35 and suggested one potential solution was to fly the plane less often.

“I want to moderate how much we’re using those aircraft,” the general said. “You don’t drive your Ferrari to work every day, you only drive it on Sundays. This is our high end, we want to make sure we don’t use it all for the low-end fight… We don’t want to burn up capability now and wish we had it later.”

Ferrari Would Not Consider This Comparison a Compliment

These statements may not seem provocative, but they represent a huge shift in the Air Force’s stance regarding the F-35. The F-35 originated from what was originally known as the Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) program, a multi-national development effort between the United States, the UK, and multiple other partner nations. The explicit purpose of the JSF program was to create a single aircraft that could replace a wide range of air, ground, and strike fighter capabilities.

Today, the F-35 exists in three variants. The F-35A provides conventional takeoff/landing and is operated by the USAF, the F-35B provides short-takeoff and vertical-landing (STVOL) capabilities for the US Marines, and the F-35C is designed for carrier operations and is operated by the US Navy.

The DoD and Lockheed-Martin have spent years painting the F-35 as a flexible, multi-role aircraft capable of outperforming a range of older planes. The rhetoric worked. The F-22 Raptor, F/A-18 Hornet, and several jets in the Harrier family were retired because the F-35 was supposed to replace them. The Air Force fought to replace the beloved A-10 Warthog with the F-35 on the grounds that the latter was, somehow, a superior replacement.

The F-16 was supposed to be replaced by the F-35. Back in 2010, Lockheed expected the F-35 to replace the F-15C/D variants as well as the F-15E Strike Eagle. That’s six different aircraft covering all three roles (air-to-air, strike, and ground). The F-35 was explicitly developed and designed to be a flexible, effective, and relatively affordable aircraft with sophisticated logistics management systems that would reduce downtime and boost reliability.

This aircraft wasn’t supposed to be a Ferrari. It was billed, explicitly, loudly, and repeatedly, as the single platform that could fill any mission requirement and satisfy virtually any mission profile outside of something a B-52 might handle.

Instead, the Air Force, Marines, and Navy have all adjusted plans at various times to keep older aircraft in service due to continual delays and problems with the F-35.

To say the F-35 has failed to deliver on its goals would be an understatement. Its mission-capable rate is 69 percent, below the 80 percent benchmark set by the military. 36 percent of the F-35 fleet is available for any required mission, well below the required 50 percent standard. Current and ongoing problems include faster-than-expected engine wear, transparency delamination of the cockpit, and unspecified problems with the F-35’s power module. The General Accountability Office (GAO) has blamed some of this on spare parts shortages, writing:

[T]he F-35 supply chain does not have enough spare parts available to keep aircraft flying enough of the time necessary to meet warfighter requirements. “Several factors contributed to these parts shortages, including F-35 parts breaking more often than expected, and DOD’s limited capability to repair parts when they break.

There have been so many problems with the F-35, it’s difficult even to summarize them. Pilot blackouts, premature part failures, software development disasters, and more have all figured in various documents over the years. Firing the main gun can crack the plane. The Air Force has already moved to buy new F-15EX aircraft. Multiple partner nations that once promised F-35 buys have shifted orders to other planes. The USAF continues to insist it will purchase 1,763 aircraft, but the odds of it doing so are increasingly dubious.

The F-15EX costs an estimated $20,000 per hour to fly. The F-35 runs $44,000. Lockheed-Martin has promised to bring that cost down to $25,000, but it’s been promising that for years. Former Air Force pilots have not been kind in their recent evaluations of the aircraft’s performance and capabilities.

Brown indicated he’s not interested in buying more F-16s, because not even the most advanced variants have the full scope of features the USAF hopes to acquire. This would presumably also disqualify the “F-21” Lockheed-Martin recently announced for the Indian market. Instead, Brown wants to develop a new fighter with fresh ideas on implementing proven technologies.

Congress will have a voice in this discussion, so it’s far from a done deal, but after over a decade mired in failure, someone at the DoD is willing, however quietly, to acknowledge that the F-35 will never perform the role it was supposed to play.

As for how much it’ll actually cost to build that 4.5th-generation fighter, all I’ll say is this: The F-35 was pitched to Congress and the world as a way of saving money. Today, the lifetime cost of the aircraft program, including R&D, is estimated to be over $1.5 trillion. The price of a supposedly cheaper 4.5-generation plane could easily match or exceed the F-35’s flyaway cost by the time all is said and done, though hopefully any future aircraft would still manage to offer a much lower cost per hour.

…..My comments

These expenditures are madness.

Why has China risen so fast?

Because it is stealing many key national socialist ideas.

  1. an authoritarian government, not a multiparty, “democratic” chaos with the country divided into mutually loathing camps
  2. racial homogeneity (we NS threw the jews out of Germany and then were 100% white; China is 90% Han Chinese and keeps a tight lid on Tibet and the thieving, violent, typically muslim-acting Uighurs in its westernmost province
  3. First fix your economy, as the NS Germans did 1933-35 and THEN (1936-41) build up your military — if need be.

The only way to avoid WWIII is to overthrow our jew masters and agree to share the world with the top-tier world powers: China, Russia, and India, plus in the second tier Germany, Britain, France, Brazil, Italy, etc. No more American world domination!

But the jews were counting on America to enable them to rule the whole world!

China and Russia know this and have no intention of being bullied or insulted by our mongrel, multiracial and degenerate hordes!

We must end jewish rule of this country or the jews will provoke and provoke Russia and China until WWIII erupts!

We cannot beat these two giants, nor should we be trying to! Let us all just settle down, forget the war fever, make good money, start nice families, and fix our own countries’ problems! We do not need any more EMPIRES OVER OTHER PEOPLE!

–13 July 2021 two superb historical books from J in New Mexico, Stalin’s War of Extermination by Joachim Hoffmann, and Chief Culprit, by the Soviet jew and military historian Suvorov, proving that Stalin was just about to massively surprise-attack Germany, in August 1941 (despite the Berlin-Moscow Non-Aggression Pact of 1939)  when Hitler Germany instead, with full justification, surprise-attacked HIM.

–13 July 2021 book from Stan Hess in Idaho Defensive Racism by the late WN lawyer Edgar Steele, who was later tragically framed for attempted murder on the word of honor of a convicted felon who had stolen thousands in silver coins FROM HIM!  Then the FBI created a deep-fake audio — using tech from the Media Lab at MIT — of Steele supposedly discussing ON THE PHONE having his own wife bumped off, which his wife Cindy  never believed for a second. Steele was then railroaded into prison, given “diesel-therapy” (moved around constantly from prison to prison (in a diesel-powered bus, hence “diesel therapy”) with his mail never forwarded, so he had almost no communications with his friends, supporters and family for months). He then died in prison due to the feds withholding his medications and probably despair as well. This book is superb. You can see from it why the jew-feds hated and feared him.
