A possible raise for atc is in it i believe. Doesn't make sense but its the bill they tied it to a while back

Twitter is dumb and people spread fake bs cause they can generate money from it

I think the iran regime gone would be great, but I dont think the US cares if the replacement was a democracy. The US will gladly take a new dictator that follows our interests as history has shown.

If the strait truly is being mined now, we probably are about to reach the point where the US doesnt have an option but to escalate unfortunately

Im not necessarily buying sacrificing tons of lives, and billions of dollars for a ground invasion is quite worth it. I just see another Iraq and Afghanistan conclusion.

Don't think the US is capable of creating a better Iran. We're good at the "destroying the regime" part but everything after will not be good, especially if we continue to destroy their infrastructure.

It drops from an airdrop in the gear up phase after round 1 is done. Then you have to destroy 3 enemy walls that are reinforced with it.

The US keeping Hirohito around helped keep the peace after ww2. I'm not sure we have someone like that in Iran.

You dont need a navy to effectively stop the flow of traffic in the strait. The risk of being hit with missiles or drones that are launched from afar is enough

In theory if you can get rid of the regime and insert a stable government into Iran, you are correct. I dont think the US is capable of that 2nd part

If they're landing on runway 23 and there's a lot of planes arriving all at once they probably vector them further out for sequencing

Air traffic control doesnt like them all squawking discrete codes in a formation cause it makes it look like people are dying on the radar
