Unfortunately, the US needs to engage the Houthis in the Red Sea, I'm sure it's Biden's fault, because well, what isn't?
A few notable firsts:
From Business Insider:
"For instance, VFA-105 became the first naval squadron to use the AIM-9X missile in combat, scoring a direct hit on a Houthi drone that was targeting merchant vessels. The infrared-seeking AIM-9X is the newest variant in the Sidewinder short-range air-to-air missiles."
"This fighter squadron was also the first to fire AGM-88 HARM missiles from an F/A-18E in combat. These air-to-surface missiles are made to take out hostile air defenses by targeting their radar systems. Additionally, VFA-105 used the Joint Standoff Weapon-C Variant, a precision-guided munition that can strike surface targets, for the first time in combat during this deployment."
Then there was a f***ing DEI hire, why is a woman involved in this, make babies and shut up! What a minute, maybe, just maybe she's the best and brightest? MAGA, thoughts? Maybe you have a friend, that knows a guy, that has a cousin, that saw this woman cheat on a test?
"Other squadrons in the carrier air wing also made history during this combat deployment. For example, a naval aviator flying a F/A-18F Super Hornet became the first American female to score an air-to-air kill, and an EA-18G Growler electronic-warfare aircraft, as a platform, received its first ever air-to-air kill."
I wonder how she would do in track and field against a man? I wonder if that's relevant to her job? Probably.
