Just a bizarre series of events, Putin offers direct leader-to-leader peace talks last weekend, and the end result is a small Russian negotiating team showing up to deliver the most maximalist, revanchist, and unhinged demands. Threats of further Russian invasion, prolonged multiyear war, and a negotiation that fell apart after two hours.

A great representation of how absolutely horrendous US Navy procurement is.

In roughly the same time it took the US to fight over and fail to build the Constellation class, Italy managed to build 9 multirole warships with similar capabilities for *half* of the price. Image For €557 million per unit, you get a modular platform with

-5000 nmi cruise range (convoy escort from Hawaii to Japan or the Philippines)
-5 in main gun
-76mm CIWS
-16x heavy SAM with MRBM intercept capabilities
-Dual band AESA radar
-Towed array sonar

Last year, Delta reportedly passed a NATO security audit and underwent compatibility testing for interoperability within a NATO environment.

Amazing find by @KSOSINT, it appears that a Ukrainian An-124 transported at least 3 F-16 airframes from the boneyard at Davis-Monthan AFB to Rzeszow, Poland, gateway for western aid to Ukraine.

The US has not confirmed any direct donations of F-16s to Ukraine. Image The individual airframes are unknown, and missing too many identifying features to ascertain whether they are mothballed As or newer Cs.

They do appear to be complete, though disassembled. Image

This is possibly the most insane national security story in the last 50 years. Includes a massive text chain between senior members of the Trump admin gaming out foreign policy and war plans on Signal, and they accidentally added a reporter to the group chat. Image Image

New from @hntrbrkmedia, industry experts are calling for a federal investigation into the egg market after prices and egg producer profits have soared.

Egg prices have quadrupled, but quarterly profits of the nation's largest egg producer have gone up almost 1000%. Image Egg prices shattered records, hitting an eye-watering average of $8.05/dozen for regular eggs in Feb. People have battled in Costo, and NYC bodegas even began selling eggs individually amid soaring costs. Image

After yesterday's events in the White House, Haltbakk Bunkers, one of Norway's largest marine fuel companies, appears to have announced that it will no longer refuel American Navy vessels.

Haltbakk has called on other European companies to refuse service to American forces. Image The shutdown may have already affected USS Virginia (SSN-774), which attempted to refuel in Norway today but turned around.

(The Virginia class requires some marine diesel for its Caterpillar model 3512B V-12 auxiliary generator).
