Airborne Technologies is working with UAE-based CITC's John Feighan to develop an ISR platform so Egypt can chase ISIS/Sinai. Remember when Erik was running a old DC-3 spy plane in Sinai as BridgePorth? The kill team had to skedaddle and left the plane behind. Anyone seen ZS-MFY?
Nuther funny spy plane. The Airborne Technologies Guardian 400 was supposed to be on a world sales tour. Ends up being leased by Sea Aviation 2 Ltd., Grand Cayman in Saudi Arabia between July - Oct 2017. Available in removable registration number gray. twinotterworld.com/msn-897
Nuther funny spy plane. YU-TSH aka LZ-SAX This one gets painted up more times than a TJ tranny. FBI went for a visit to Sunny Cyprus. Found some stuff. Also was repainted...again. Global Geo Survey must be busy. gerjon.substack.com/p/a-lasa-t-bir…
My new Saudi follower likes this video. He knows I am a sucker for recruitment films.

Follow the bouncing ball with @konrad_muzyka, read the stories and marvel at the size of the Russian buildup. A-10 pilots are drooling at the nice neat lineups economist.com/europe/what-ar… Image
This is an historic moment as Russia plays Cuban Missile Crisis Chicken Part Two against America. Or are they just stress testing NATO and the US? Half measures? Steal a little Ukraine? Or is it all Vlad's Mycraine? Image
The U.S. military is built to do many things. Probably the best capability they have is to fight head to head against Russian armor and air formations. But for some reason the Russians made us think they would invade the US.

Journalist @carolecadwalla is getting bashed about and insulted in court by Arron Banks. Wonder why? "Katya Banks had entered Britain on a passport sequentially numbered to the passport of Katia Zatuliveter, a woman MI5 had claimed was a Russian spy" theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/j…
"Lawfare" is just another tool used to impoverish, distract, diminish and silence journalists. It doesn't really work. It's more of a badge of honor.
Thankfully there is entertainment aplenty.

There are probably enough native language speakers in Canada from Alberta and Manitoba to put together a Foreign Legion. Ukrainians are the fifth largest ethnic group in Canada. globalnews.ca/news/8517110/c…
Even Poroshenko wants in on the action. japantimes.co.jp/news/2022/01/1…
The Ukraine conflict is more than just a real estate grab by Vlad it is the launching pad for a much bigger offensive on democracy. vice.com/en/article/88n…

Kinda big news. FSG is now Ghina Brackwatah. Li Xiaopeng founded China's biggest PMC, DeWe Security Service Group. FSG bought DeWe in Oct. Prince left in April last year and his money hider Dorian Barak (UAE/Israel) stepped in. Please stand for the CCP national anthem.
As Greg points out it's comforting to know that patriotic Americans can transfer military er sorry, security, skills to communist China and make a buck. fsgroup.com/en/news/show-6…
I have tossed up a few reports on the rise of Chinese PMC's in Africa. To be fair, Erik's model didn't really translate well since he has that harmatia thing. WaPo scratched their head at the logic of a former US intel/military/pmc working for China. .washingtonpost.com/news/world/wp/…

I thought President Biden provided a calm and honest appraisal of where we are. The media seemed eager to front load questions with their opinions and at the end of the day, at least Biden is not a brokeass casino owner grifting suckers and selling merch.
The techie nerd guy in me thought his audio sucked. That didn't help. The mics might have been out of polarity. The vibe was bureaucratic, respectful and thoughtful. The press seems imprinted by abusive press conferences... could have dialed it back a bit.
Sad to hear about the childlike resistance the GOP provides to create a sense of adversity. Even the Democrats are seeing the advantage of being holdouts. They look good in their home constituencies. As a taxpayer I would like to do a Three Stooges and get these people in sync.

I thought China had snapped this bargain up but if anyone needs a large spacious aircraft that can carry 628,300 pounds of stuff and all their friends, this famous fixer upper is back on the market. oryxspioenkop.com/2022/01/sky-gi…
Guaranteed to draw a crowd every time you land. Just put money aside for new tires...and fuel. 22 metric tons of fuel per hour. 32 tires. $30K an hour. 285 tons empty.
Nerdy documentary on the Ukrainian behemoth.
