BACK TO BACK TO BACK BOMBS - NOW IS THE TIME FOR PEACE Fordow: If this is real, it is horrific. Bad US - Iran relations starts with the Mosaddegh coup of 1953. The CIA toppled Iran's democracy and installed the Shah. Imagine if Iran toppled our government and installed a monarch.
#F35 #Japan #RIAT #USAF: Is it F-35 Friday yet? As fascinating as F-35s, Su-57, F-22 and other stealth aircraft are, how will they function in drone filled environments such as the Russia Ukraine War? Great F-35 video by @Mayumi33825876!

8/ #SundayFunday #SundayMorning #AvGeek #USArmy: The Sikorsy H-34 Choktaw โ๏ธ was a longer, low-tail version of the Sikorsky H-19 Chickasaw โ๏ธ. The new SikorskyโBoeing SB-1 Defiant โ๏ธ Future Long-Range Assault Aircraft (FLRAA) and Sikorsky Raider X (FARA) โ๏ธ stealths are stunning.
#Maps #USCivilWar #CivilWar #OTD: Battle of Atlanta July 22-September 2, 1864: red shows fortifications around 2-mile-diameter #Atlanta as Sherman battled Hood. The circular city limits and fortifications are gone but the same roads and railways remain.1/
2/ Battle of Atlanta was largely fought around present-day Edgewood/Candler Park, Memorial Drive, Hosea Williams Drive, etc. Grant Park, which didnโt exist at the time, was a giant bastion. Peachtree Battle was fought far north of town on July 20, 1864.
#RIPJamalWarner #JamalWarner #Breaking Not Theo!?! Ted Lasso trends as we get the sad news that The Cosby Show's lovable Theo Huxtable, Malcolm-Jamal Warner, has passed away. He was so young... He drowned today at age 55 leaving behind a wife and daughter.
Sea Hunt target #Baltics #RussiaUkraine #USSR #SovietUnion: This real life shot in the dark story inspired Tom Clancey's The Hunt for Red October... Soviet captain Valery Sablin's defected from Riga, Latvia as the paranoid USSR threw all it had into capturing him... A thread:
Kaliningrad, Moscow and St. Petersburg trend. November 9, 1975, Captain Valery Sablin led a mutiny on the Soviet Navy destroyer Storozhevoy, fled Riga at night... It inspired Hunt for Red October (but not Good Will Hunting)... 1/ allworldwars.com/Mutiny-on-Storโฆ

#MNwx #TXWX #NMWX #tornado #NDwx @NWXGrandForks says to expect severe thunderstorms tonight and possible tornadoes, 2" hail, 70 mph winds! @WeatherNation shows an impressive shelf cloud! Now: severe thunderstorm warning for Duluth. Also flash flood warnings for New Mexico!
Relentless days of storms loom over the Plains, fueled by sweltering heat. A slight risk is forecast for the High Plains today, with all modes in play. #MNwx

#NativeAmericans #USArmy #avgeek #aviation #quiz: My question was poorly worded. I was asking if anyone can think of which US Army aviation aircraft do NOT have Native American names... Any takers? ๐๐๐ฉ๏ธ
Native Americans #wildcardgame #avgeek #USArmy: Since 1947, most US Army aviation aircraft got Native American names: Sioux, Kiowa, Black Hawk, Apache, Comanche, Mohawk, Mojave, Chickasaw, Choctaw, Shawnee, Chinook, Tarhe, Iroquois, Cayuse, Lakota, etc. Quiz: Which are outliers?
