In a modernization effort, the US Navy is adding a fleet of autonomous submarines with the purchase of four of Boeing’s Orca Extra Large Unmanned Undersea Vehicles (XLUUVs) that will become multi-mission for the service, according to the US Naval Institute.
Last Wednesday, the Navy awarded Boeing a $43 million deal to manufacture four of the 51-foot Orca XLUUVs capable of traveling 6,500 nautical miles unaided. Continue reading

As Russian warships rain down cruise missiles as part of its military strike in Syria, there’s now a glaring absence in the region: For the first time since 2007, the U.S. Navy has no aircraft carrier in the Persian Gulf.
Military officials said Thursday that they’ve pulled the USS Theodore Roosevelt, which is home to about 5,000 service members and 65 combat planes, so that it can undergo maintenance. The ship officially exited the gulf around 11 p.m. ET. The temporary measure is also the result of mandatory budget cuts. Continue reading

As the Clintons during their 90’s tenure allowed for supercomputers to be sold to China, they used them for nuclear weapons testing, they had knowingly compromised Americas entire nuclear deterrent edge.
In December of last year, the following was stated on Global Geopolitics:

If people thought the ‘barbarians’ were at the gate just during Obama or Bush’s tenure, they couldn’t be more dead wrong and haven’t payed attention one bit. They also weren’t at the gate, but within. Thanks to the Clinton administration, the Chinese military is now on par with America’s and within the next ten years will be superior, also thanks in part to the decimation of the U.S. Military from within via purging of senior officers and budget cuts that are happening now.
Although it’s another story, the Clintons are also largely responsible for the financial crisis of 2008 due to repealing the Glass-Steagall Act in 1999.
What the Clintons did years ago is now coming to fruition. Still, there will always be the oblivious bunch who never saw it coming and couldn’t imagine how it all happened.
America is in both free fall and grave danger.
Thanks to this we now have a dangerous China doing as it pleases and is both politically and economically pushing the United States slowly out of Asia. Militarily pushing America out of Asia can’t be too far behind as they arguably now possess the ability to keep any invader out of their backyard thanks to thousands of missiles stockpiled, satellite killers and aircraft carrier killers, to name a few.
Now fast forward to 2015 and the entire U.S. Navy compromised in one sale.
If people do not understand what is going on now, they will when it’s too late. That’s the tragedy.
…and if you didn’t know already, as mentioned in the article, Forbes is owned by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). When you read it, you are likely being fed the party line.
(NaturalNews) IBM’s decision to sell one of its manufacturing divisions to a Chinese firm could not only damage U.S. national security; it will also cost taxpayers plenty of money.
The American technology giant recently inked a deal with Chinese computer maker Lenovo involving IBM’s division that manufactures servers for the U.S. Navy’s upgraded Aegis Combat System, one of the most formidable nautical offensive and defensive systems on the planet.
According to USNI News (U.S. Naval Institute), the $2.1 billion sale was closed in October, making Lenovo the number three server manufacturer in the world.
That’s just business, right? Continue reading
President Obama is not the only actor with a red line on Syria. China, Russia and Iran also have their own red line on Damascus.
CNN on 12 November reported Obama administration is suddenly focused on removing Assad as the core of its anti-ISIS strategy, once again submitting to Turkey and Arab Gulf states that enabled ISIS to begin with, and are actually contributing very little to the anti-ISIS efforts to be dictating such orders to Washington.
Moreover, these demands are harmful to US security interests—redefining US anti-ISIS mission to one of anti-Assad mission—and thereby potentially drawing in Eurasian powers of China, Russia and Iran into open military conflict against the US. Continue reading
A Chinese military officer has said that establishing a South China Sea ADIZ is necessary to China’s national interest.
“The establishment of another ADIZ over the South China Sea is necessary for China’s long-term national interest,” Senior Colonel Li Jie, a researcher at the PLA Navy’s Military Academy and frequent media commentator, said on Friday, according to a report in Reuters. Continue reading
