Funny how extraordinary events that are practiced constantly can lull one into a sense of it being ordinary.
An amphibious vehicle swimming from ship to shore is actually a modern marvel.
To see one go down regardless of the nation is heartbreaking. China has mothers too and we're not at war. I join others in hoping that everyone is ok.
33 years ago, legendary Soviet/Russian ship-based naval fighter Sukhoi Su-33 performed its maiden flight

The TAGRS
The #TAGRS is a mobile, rapid ground refueling system that significantly improves the Marine Wing Support Squadron's ability to conduct Forward Arming & Refueling Point operations in support of aviation operations forward of established airfields. #Sikorsky #CH53 #Helicopter pic.twitter.com/uJnaxPsXGb— Christian Albrecht (@CALBRECHT83) August 17, 2020
Air and Missiles. The Marine Corps isn't about ground combat anymore. New emphasis? FARPs? Are you shitting me? Disgusting! Like the Chinese won't find, fix and destroy these locations with ease!

Royal Air Force Joint Air Delivery Test and Evaluation Unit doing work with the AN-124
Note. It's rather interesting that the USAF hasn't "cashed in" on the outsized transport business. I know it wouldn't be an everyday thing but I imagine they could make a good bit of changing using those massive C-5's to handle stuff too big for normal transport but not quite big enough for the AN-124. I imagine the "not for profit" thing plays a role but quick cash that would mirror actual missions seems like a no brainer.
Indian Army releases a teaser vid for their upcoming Independence Day...
Goosebumps 🔥🔥— Vinod DX9 (@VinodDX9) August 14, 2020

I am an Indian Army Soldier. I fight where I'm told; and I win where I fight.
Not splashing sunshine off the Indian Army but that is simple, and to the point. Plus it doesn't sound (at least to me) like it was developed at a public relations firm.
I mean seriously what was the catchphrase for the US military for the past couple of years? "Ready to fight tonight"? No declaration of victory just that we'll show up to a fight. Many show up, not all win.
Points to the Indian Army on this one. Real catchy slogan/phrase.

This video highlights just SOME of what we do.
Our capabilities are endless, and we train on tactics, techniques, and procedures, including with our partners, constantly in order to maintain readiness. @USArmy @1st_SF_Command @USASOCNews pic.twitter.com/sHSG51Pbbj
25th ID Airborne Sappers “Clear The Line”
Note. What's going on with their gear attached to the body armor? Is that some type of ensemble or something? Anyone know what its called and why they would use that when they have that much molle to utilize? Additionally (and I know I'm probably late) but SAPPER really is tab worthy huh? I know they introduced it but I thought it was something that would be in your record book not on your uniform. Is there a special push inside the Army for combat engineers (is a SAPPER a combat engineer or a totally different breed of animal?).

AMX 10 RC is powerfully armed, very mobile, amphibious and protected against small infantry weapons.
