Ops Brief 052: Daily Drop - 24 May 2025 (F-47 Upgrades...ALREADY?!)
Today’s drop is brought to you by… anger, caffeine, and one last damn slot for the Operator Training Summit. Jared’s back with a full-frontal assault on the newest batch of DoD clownery: airframes that are being “upgraded” before they even exist, moving programs that still don’t move anything, and bonus cuts that would make a finance troop cry in DFAS-approved tears.
We’ve got everything from Russia testing nuclear air-to-air missiles to the Space Force getting 3% of the budget while being told to dominate orbit. The E-7 still isn’t here, China is casually infiltrating American data systems, and the Collaborative Combat Aircraft program might bankrupt us before it ever flies. Meanwhile, the military’s entire PCS and EFMP system is straight-up FUBAR’d, and CardoMax is the only thing holding the line.
🔥 Key Takeaways:
🪦 Army’s Old Guard places 260,000 flags at Arlington. Respect where it’s due.
🇬🇧 U.S. secures 100-year lease on Diego Garcia from the UK. Didn’t even know they owned it.
🛜 National Guard runs Cyber Yankee to prep for real-world infrastructure hacks.
🤖 DoD wants “small AIs” now. Translation: ChatGPT made them nervous.
🚛 Moving system still broken. EFMP clearance times now longer than a damn deployment.
✈️ Air Force upgrading the F-47... which doesn’t even exist yet.
💣 B-52s to Spain, just in case Russia forgets what deterrence looks like.
🛑 Boeing’s E-7 delays have Jared foaming at the mouth (again).
💸 Tax-free bonuses proposed. Bring them back. Stop playing games.
🛰️ Space Force gets 3% of the budget and still gets blamed for everything.
🚀 ULA is fumbling rockets. Meanwhile, SpaceX is still doing SpaceX things.
💀 Russia testing nuclear air-to-air missiles. Totally fine.
🌪️ NOAA predicts hurricane season from hell.
💰 CCA program costs are skyrocketing. And no, pilots aren’t exactly stoked.
🇨🇳 China’s inside our digital house. Surprise.
