Air Force Magazine: Army’s Long-Range Strike Vision is ‘Stupid,’ AFGSC Chief Says 

The Army’s plan to take over some of the long-range strike mission is “stupid” and a waste of resources that are urgently needed elsewhere, said Air Force Global Strike Command chief Gen. Timothy M. Ray. 

“I genuinely struggle with the credibility of that plan,” Ray said on an AFA Mitchell Institute for Aerospace Studies podcast posted April 1. “I just think it’s a stupid idea to go invest that kind of money to recreate something that [the Air Force] has mastered.” 

Ray was referring to the Army’s new vision, which calls for it to operate in all domains, taking over some missions from the Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps, and Space Force in long-range strike, maritime warfare, amphibious warfare, and space operations. 

Under the new vision, the Army plans to field hypersonic weapons that can rapidly target enemy missile launchers and airfields.

.... “Why in the world would we entertain a brutally expensive idea when we don’t, as the [Defense] Department, have the money to go do that?”

  1. I'm not convinced any of these heads of various government agencies are concerned about the country's exploding debt.

  2. The Army is not concerned with the debt anymore than Fauci was concerned with the epidemiological and financial cost of his COVID lockdowns. Fauci argued he had a perfect right to be blundering stupid and myopic. He said he was staying in his lane. That he was not trained in economics. We do not have enough formally cross trained in economics, medicine, law, science, etc, so they can decree the best COA. At a trained professional with reasoning skill you can run some numbers yourself or barring that form a committee and hash something out in 1 day or 1 week.

    They are pulling a Fauci.

  3. Bill and Melinda Gates too, not just Fauci, were pushing the lockdown

    In the now famous interview with both, bill and melinda, several months into the lockdown and trillions lost in economic output globally, millions dying of starvation according to UN estimates it'll be a total of 100mn extra dead, mostly in south America and Africa. You know what both criminals against the human race said, dared to say? "Oh we couldn't imagine that locking down the world for a prolonged period of time would hurt the economy" (and kill people). NO follow up question from the "interviewer".

    THESE ARE CRIMINALS
    THE MILITARY MUST ACT
    YOUR JUSTICE SYSTEM AND CHECKS AND BALANCES INCLUDING MEDIA HAVE FAILED
    THEY'RE ACTIVELY PLOTTING AGAINST YOU

    Enemies foreign and domestic. I'm not American but if I had sworn an oath to the constitution..
    We need people of courage in all branches of government.

    And get this... bill gates who flew notoriously on the lolita Express, HE owns NewsGuard , an organisation that'll dictate and already does so on the web, what's true and what's not true...

    So you better don't accuse bill gates of being a corrupt, treasonous, mass murdering , human experiment conducting, psychopathic pedophile. No no. He's not, Newsguard assures you.

    The military must act or we ALL will be enslaved. All of us.

  4. I hate pointing out the obvious and what needs pointing out when a most likely troll comes up after me with a bullhorn.
