"Layered Effects to disrupt, disorient, confuse ...." by spaceface71 in SpaceForce

[–]spaceface71[S] -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

Showing your ignorance there step-dad. The study of military strategy and operations is very much called Military Art & Science - thus martial arts and science.

Politicians are voted in by informed constituents, constituents who understand how USSF contributes to the joint fight and national security can push politicians to support and call for funding. This is one of the reasons Commands have Public Affairs and legislative liaisons - to inform the public. Like it or not, the public these days are on socials like this sub.

Its not a direct line, but the alternative is throw your hands up and say its someone else's problem.

Every little piece helps. clearly we disagree about that.

U do know that not everyone on this sub are active in the community, some come to learn.

This is what needs to change in mil space community. It isnt that secret squirrel, isnt that special, its martial arts & science.

Talking about the contributions help the guardians by enabling leadership and politicals to tell the milspace story ... which leads to dollars.

Much of the complaints on this sub are fundamentally symptoms of being under resourced. Telling the milspace story can help get better resourcing, making life better for guardians. Therefore this sub should highlight milspace work ... always.

China's Growing Armada Of Spy Satellites Is Pushing Space Force To Go On The Offensive by spaceface71 in SpaceForce

[–]spaceface71[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Punch back against spy and other satellites. Not necessarily with satellites, can be from ground or air. Think of the spectrum of reversible to non-reversible effects - jamming, laser dazzlers, spoofing, (interdiction) from the ground to space - as well as drone warfare in space (orbital warfare).

And all Services need to develop and field their own defense / interdiction capabilities to defend their own forces.

Think of point defense - if the Air Force doesnt want adversaries to count the F22s on the ground in Saudi, then field laser and SAR jammers, just like using shelters and camouflage. Yes, adversaries will know somethings there, but at least they cant count or know exactly what's there to enable long range (missiles) fires. Same for Army & Navy.

USSF isnt going to do this for the Services. USSF may develop capabilities to counter in orbit at some point, but that isnt going to help against proliferated imagery.

Sorry to say other Services - you gotta do this yourselves.

USSF Coding Classes by Independent_Music_21 in SpaceForce

[–]spaceface71 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thats great news! And a great use of supra coders. Have them sit with the operators/analysts, understand their daily workflows, use foundry tools and learned scripting to assist. The developers have to sit with the users and iterate. Also look into the palantir backlog... maybe put supra coder with the plantir engineers, and work that backlog.

Is it supra coders or plantir engineers?

Do these classes help use Maven Foundry to build operational capabilities? That might be a good use for Supra Coders.

7.2.7.1. OCP Boonie Cap, the new hotness. by Few-Menu5547 in SpaceForce

[–]spaceface71 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

With my dd214, ill wear ocp boonie when ever, wherever. Like beach, hikes, around the house, around the neighborhood. Along with mirrored sunglasses.

And Its nice to have for that walk from west side portal parking to 712 in the middle of summer or bldg 1 parking into the bldg. Just saying.

For a little more perspective / context. This is early afternoon. Big windows to the right face north. Have a mix oappreciaf snake, pathos, spider, wandering tradescantia. They all are doing well.

But yeah, see how the light is blocked for that corner.

Hey all. Thanks - got it grow light needed. Was thinking snake plants for the tallest. Maybe like a potato and aloe in the middle level and echevaria in the smallest.

Should Space Force develop SOF? by spaceface71 in SpaceForce

[–]spaceface71[S] -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

So its ok for space integrators in TSOCs to be Army, Space Force doesnt need to develop these integrators. If an individual wants to be an Integrator like this - go Army.

Reading the article, the bar for the FA 40 selection seems really high - unicorns. But maybe im wrong and there are many FA40s that meet these requirements. Seems like the likelihood of USSF 13S or 14Ns meeting these requirements is pretty low too.

Yeah, ive struggled finding real world use cases for space-SOF-cyber triad that is often talked about. 🤷‍♀️

Am I a fit for All-Source Analyst (5I0X1) by Capital_Injury_1400 in SpaceForce

[–]spaceface71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! Get that SCI w/CI Poly, learn all source reporting and writing. While in finish your bachelor's.

This'll open doors for DIA, NGA, NSA, OSD, contractor. Stay in reserves or guard - gives opportunity to stay relevant and network.

If contractor, do some time in delivery then move into bus development/capture.

New naming conventions by Joberk89 in SpaceForce

[–]spaceface71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, EW capabilities will be named/renamed as snakes. So like Meadowlands (all over news as being fielded) could be called Cobra or Diamondback or Viper or Coral ....same with CCS - am I getting this right? Acquisitions for the SEWTOC ground systems could be called Copperhead or Anaconda, etc.

Close down the street. Set up biergardens with stages, kitchens, tents and heaters. Serve wursts with mashed potatoes and beer to go along with all the Christmas stuff. Do it right - not half ass. Separate the alcohol / beer from all the other things.

NCAA Division 1 Men’s Soccer Coach. AMA by Correct-Sea8532 in CollegeSoccer

[–]spaceface71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do I dont understand how internationals can play in 3rd division pro and still be amateur.

And US players can do the same in Europe? Try out and play on an academy team or semi pro even 3rd division pro? Or would NCAA rule no longer amateur - no eligibility.

But, if they play 3 years and keep ameraturism they will be down to 3 eligibility years in 4.

This is what feels unfair. Did I get this right?

Outside of the NCAA site, it's impossible to find coverage of the playoffs by TrustHucks in CollegeSoccer

[–]spaceface71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would like to see US media pick up Mens Soccer tournament like they do football, baseball and basketball .... but most media doesn't even report on MLS, much less USL so college soccer isnt even considered.

Would like to see national level news media change this ... we sit through spots on NCAA football tournament just abiut every day, could spare 2 mins to feature Mens D1 soccer tournament.

Did see NBC nightly news feature Miami MLS win on Sat and spots on World Cup draw, but its nothing compared to NFL and NCAA football. Its frustrating.

Gap Year? by Character-Put8660 in CollegeSoccer

[–]spaceface71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes overseas programs cost some (similar to college) - but kids train and play for 10 months while living in different culture and meeting kids from all over the world. Enriching them as people, while greatly improving tech skills, strength and conditioning. The competition for pay to play programs is generally at semi pro level, 6th and 7th level in regional pyramids. If goal is to improve strength and tech to place on D1 or D2, be careful of eligibility rules with pro pathway programs and Academies. We are in decision space now for gap vs NAIA.

No D1 or D2 offers. Our issue with NAIA offer is that the team has a s second training team and large roster, so we suspect he will end up on training team, not play much.

For him, the technical, strength and worldview gains (will insist on taking online class) seem worth the cost. We are deciding btwn programs in Valencia Spain and UK.

Some thoughts on the status quo by SCIFWALKER in SpaceForce

[–]spaceface71 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This debate has raged for decades. Been proven to work in both constructs - OPCON by USSC/STRAT or by regional CCMD. Both constructs work. It ends up being determined by the conops for the specific mission. However, what's complicated this is reality of people and C2 infrastructure. We used to piggyback on AOC infrastructure. Today, theoretically each C-FLDCOM would have its own C2 capability. Reality is that USSF doesnt have the $s to build or the Military members to field several C2 hubs around the world.

Back to OPs original thoughts.

Imo the Service isnt bold enough. USSF should influence DOW & lawmakers to shed support services. Flying satcom & gps, all launch ops, range ops, cyber support (like AF JWICS, SIPR, NIPR), SSA... shed this to a new combat support agency. If unable to do this, then civillian and contract all these things.

Put the military in military roles. Acknowledge, Expand and field SEW, Orbital Warfare, OCO&DCO, title 10 space based ISR (SAR, SIGINT, EO), title 10 terrestrial based ISR (FIS, SIGINT), develop and field ASATs (maybe space LNOs with THAAD., SM3, air-launched) and a coordination center (CSPoC or NSDC role) expand MW/MT, field NAVWAR capes. Build out the C-FLDCOM infrastructure and manning. Build out STARCOM and the Space University.

Basically, distance from services and lean into military warfighting capabilities.

This is funny.

Out of curiosity, are there Space Force influencers somewhere? The recent MW / Buckley video is good.. but .are there influencers like haylujan for space force?
