This of this as a sales cycle. Take note of the built in simulation around communications and support teams. To make these sales cycles (flights) hit their mark, flexibility and teamwork hit the mark. And it's motivating! #sales #securitysales #salesleadership #selling

An Air Force B-52 Stratofortress, a Navy E/A-18 Growler, a Marine Corps F/A-18 Hornet and Japanese aircraft fly in formation during Cope North over Tinian and Saipan, Feb. 6, 2024. The exercise is designed to test interoperability through agile combat employment and integrated generation of air power.

Flight deck yoga is a thing.

Now that the PLA-N’s fourth Type-075 Landing Helicopter Dock (LHD) vessel is well under construction, it seems China’s increasingly formidable amphib assault fleet is also well underway. Along with expansion of dual purpose civilian car ferry fleets, and if ongoing amphib assault drills by the far sea joint training flotilla ops under the PLA Southern Theatre Command are anything to go by, this 80th year of the D-Day Normandy landings might just see history repeating itself but with Chinese characteristics. Beefing up marine forces notwithstanding, it’s not just Taiwan’s beaches that are feeling the heat. According to various OS reporting, India’s consolidating its new Andaman Island and other regional Naval bases are becoming major Indian military transit hubs, making Xi and co (including Myanmar) very unhappy. More flashpoints in the Southeast Asian maritime tinderbox.

Combat Engineering Logistics here in Warsaw is buzzing—showing how much Poland's military development and modernisation programmes have spurred fresh demand for logistical capabilities to help support, deploy and operate a host of newly procured air, land and naval systems.

I have read the proposed changes being to the Australian Navy with interest. With their proposals and recent developments with the Royal Navy in the UK - I wonder if the following has been realised. Frigates and Destroyers have historically been small, fairly lightly armed vessels, certainly up to the 1950s. Since then they have grown in size and armament and in my opinion really have become the modern ‘Battleship’ or ‘Heavy Cruiser’ - if we use old terminology. With numbers of T45 being low and the T26 also only being 8 vessels and Hunter class being reduced in number - I think this may finally be realised by Governments and Navies too. There needs to be more smaller, adaptable and cost effective vessels for roles which do not need a ‘battleship’ - I certainly see there being room for more River class OPV or bigger corvette type vessels. Certainly in the it too distant future - a lot more navies will become automated and uncrewed. What is your view? https://lnkd.in/evdRzcPm

DSEI 2023: Has the Royal Navy cut back its support vessel fleet too far? This second in Shephard’s three-part series examining the state of the UK RN analyses the fleet of support ships. These important vessels sustain naval forces at sea for long durations and at vast distances, but cuts to the Royal Fleet Auxiliary's fleet have left crucial ships retired or sold, prompting concerns for future missions. #dsei2023 DSEI https://lnkd.in/eGgskNsi

🌐 ARCTIC CIRCLE -- Forces from the U.S. Navy, U.S. Army, U.S. Air Force, Canada, Denmark, Norway, and the United Kingdom recently concluded high-impact training throughout the pan-Arctic region; a vast area stretching from Alaska all the way across Canada and into Greenland. Arctic Edge 24, a U.S. Northern Command exercise, emphasized integration and Joint Force tactical effectiveness in a variety of chilly scenarios such as: diving, helicopter fast roping, swift insertions, snow mobile tactics, long-range endurance-building movement -- all culminating in the Joint Force responding to a fast-attack submarine event. 🔥 This training epitomizes the nation’s unwavering commitment to maintain an enhanced presence, strengthen cooperative partnerships, and build a more-capable Arctic maritime force. 🌊 Capt. Bill Gallagher, Naval Special Warfare Group TWO Commodore, emphasized his team’s unique capability to conduct complex operations in the water column and maritime domains like the Arctic where presence helps deter aggression and demonstrates the unwavering preparedness to defend the homeland in the Arctic. Naval Special Warfare stands as the nation’s elite maritime special operations force, extending the Fleet’s reach and securing access for the Joint Force in both competition and conflict. 🔱 View entire story here: https://lnkd.in/gg-dC-rq #ArcticEdge24 #SpecialOperations #ArcticSecurity #NavySEALs #NavySWCC #USSOCOM  

Casablanca-Class: The U.S. Navy Built 50 'Baby' Aircraft Carriers in a Just 1 Year In 1942, industrialist Henry Kaiser proposed mass-producing small escort carriers for the U.S. Navy to aid in World War II, using assembly-line techniques to launch one nearly every week. Despite initial skepticism, President Roosevelt's support led to the production of fifty Casablanca-class carriers, crucial for anti-submarine warfare and air defense in the Atlantic and Pacific
