,After sitting atop the fighter rankings for more than a quarter-century, the F-22 Raptor is now living on borrowed time. Today, a new fighter, being developed in the Air Force’s Next Generation Air Dominance Program, promises to usher in yet another revolution in air combat technology, as today’s F-22s fly off into the sunset. But with at least a decade before the NGAD fleet will reach full strength, America is investing billions into keeping the F-22 as capable — and deadly – as ever. 📱 Follow Sandboxx News on social Twitter: https://twitter.com/sandboxxnews Instagram: https://instagram.com/sandboxxnews Facebook: https://facebook.com/sandboxxnews TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@sandboxxnews 📱 Follow Alex Hollings on social Twitter: https://twitter.com/AlexHollings52 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alexhollings52 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AlexHollings...

I accidentally said J85 rather than J58 in the beginning!) Despite a popular focus on stealth — and to a lesser extent, data fusion — in today’s fighters, America’s turbofan advantage is truly just as valuable, setting American fighters apart through a combination of high power output and carefully crafted radar and infrared detection mitigation. In 2023, both Russian and Chinese stealth fighter programs took a big step toward closing the capability gap with America’s 5th-generation jets, finally marrying their low-observable airframes to higher-powered engines purpose-built for stealth applications.

And according to an explosive new report from Bloomberg, the problems may be so extensive that they’re forcing Chinese President Xi Jinping to rethink his plans for a Taiwan invasion. Let’s talk about these reports of Chinese missiles being filled with water, missile silos with doors that don’t open, and what now appears to be the largest crackdown on Chinese military leadership in the modern era. 📱 Follow Sandboxx News on social Twitter: https://twitter.com/sandboxxnews Instagram: https://instagram.com/sandboxxnews Facebook: https://facebook.com/sandboxxnews TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@sandboxxnews 📱 Follow Alex Hollings on social Twitter: https://twitter.com/AlexHollings52 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alexhollings52 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AlexHollings...

,In the early morning hours of New Year’s Eve, US Navy helicopters responding to a commercial vessel’s distress call in the Red Sea found themselves under fire by Iranian-backed Houthi rebels armed with crew-served weapons and a variety of small arms. The engagement was as brief as it was one-sided, however, with the American helicopters quickly sinking three of the four attack boats, leaving the fourth to retreat. This rare demonstration of the surface combat capabilities of the Navy’s MH-60 Sea Hawk helicopters resulted in no injuries to the crew of the commercial vessel or among Navy personnel. Houthi forces, on the other hand, have confirmed the death of 10 combatants. Here's the rundown.

This new propulsion system would combine several different types of air-breathing jet engines to create a combined engine that could make hypersonic aircraft a practical reality in the not-too-distant future. But what sets GE's new turbine-based combined cycle engine apart from other similar efforts is what makes it so exciting... Rotating Detonation Combustion. Let's talk about what that is... and what this all means. HUGE THANKS to Dr. Christ Combs from the University of Texas at San Antonio for helping me wrap my head around these concepts!

,As Air Force officials call for more high-tech pilot training simulators, Lockheed Martin is unveiling their plan to use off-the-shelf hardware and the same software that powers popular video games like Fortnight to make simulators that are not just more affordable, but significantly more realistic to boot. Last week, we traveled to Lockheed Martin’s Training and Logistics Solutions facility in Orlando, Florida to be among the first to get to poke around this new fighter jet training simulator that they’ve taken to calling AMAZE — short for Amorphic Appearance Zero-Projector. This system replaces the (sometimes dozens of) projectors used to power today’s military flight simulators with LED technology. This transition, Lockheed Martin officials tell us, can reduce operating costs by more than a third while occupying a significantly smaller footprint, allowing for more simulators in each training environment. Let's talk about why these simulators are so important, and how AMAZE just might change the game... 📱 Follow Sandboxx News on social Twitter: https://twitter.com/sandboxxnews Instagram: https://instagram.com/sandboxxnews Facebook: https://facebook.com/sandboxxnews TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@sandboxxnews 📱 Follow Alex Hollings on social Twitter: https://twitter.com/AlexHollings52 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alexhollings52 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AlexHollings...

,For the first time in decades, the United States now has at least three new nuclear weapons making their way toward service, including a new long-range air-launched nuclear cruise missile, a powerful new nuclear bomb, and the nation's first new ICBM — or intercontinental ballistic missile — since the 1970s. But these aren't the only new nuclear weapons to emerge in recent years... And the truth is, America's global adversaries have a number of new weapons of their own. 📱 Follow Sandboxx News on social Twitter: https://twitter.com/sandboxxnews Instagram: https://instagram.com/sandboxxnews Facebook: https://facebook.com/sandboxxnews TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@sandboxxnews 📱 Follow Alex Hollings on social Twitter: https://twitter.com/AlexHollings52 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alexhollings52 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AlexHollings...

,Throughout its three decades of service, the Blackbird famously had over 4,000 missiles of all sorts fired at it, and managed to outrun every single one. But no aircraft is invincible and the Blackbird was no exception. With looming concerns about high-speed Soviet fighters closing the capability gap, the Air Force decided to pit its Mach 3+ Blackbird against America’s own best fighters, both of which have also become legends in their own right: the U.S. Navy’s Grumman F-14 Tomcat and the U.S. Air Force’s McDonnell Douglas F-15 Eagle. But even for these incredible airborne predators, the Habu was no easy meal.

,With conflicts raging the world over and a renewed focus on competition between global powers, the United States may need to harken back to a Cold War approach to intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance by fielding a new generation of supremely capable, and optimally high-speed, spy planes. But in this era of reusable rockets and advanced spy satellites, one of the biggest challenges that such a program could face, both among lawmakers and the general public, is the pervasive belief that high-flying reconnaissance aircraft are a thing of the past. So, let's discuss it. 📱 Follow Sandboxx News on social Twitter: https://twitter.com/sandboxxnews Instagram: https://instagram.com/sandboxxnews Facebook: https://facebook.com/sandboxxnews TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@sandboxxnews 📱 Follow Alex Hollings on social Twitter: https://twitter.com/AlexHollings52 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alexhollings52 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AlexHollings...

The Ultimate Guide to Becoming an Army Ranger | Luke Ryan

,The life of a Ranger can’t be rightly described in a short video, but we hope these building blocks clear things up for anyone hoping to take a dive into the 75th Ranger Regiment (or any Ranger family members out there wondering what their loved one is doing all day). Luke Ryan went on four deployments to Afghanistan as an Army Ranger. He left as a sergeant/team leader and he is a Purple Heart recipient. Find more info on him below. Some common questions: ✅ Yes, you become a Ranger when you are assigned to a Ranger Battalion, even before Ranger School. Graduates of Ranger School aren't necessarily Rangers, rather, "Ranger Qualified." ✅ RASP 2 is a program built for officers and higher-ranking NCOs, and that pipeline is different from this one. ✅ Other jobs (medics, forward operators, cooks, etc.) have different pipelines. ✅ Nuances change over time (like the name of Fort Benning, or in the past when exactly during the pipeline you go to Airborne School, or what they’re specifically teaching in RASP these days) but the building blocks have stayed the same for a long time.
