Ops Brief 065: Daily Drop - 24 June 2025 (Fat Shaming & B-2s)

Welcome back to The Daily Drop—where Jared rants, roasts, and breaks down the news like only the Ones Ready crew can. Today’s main event? Iran punches back with a missile strike on Al-Udeid, but 13 of 14 missiles get slapped out of the sky. Trump drops an F-bomb on the lawn. Space and Cyber Command flex behind the scenes. And everyone’s favorite stealth bat—the B-2—continues to steal headlines.

Meanwhile, the Air Force wants airmen to run two miles... twice a year. Cue the Facebook tears and diaper rash in the NCO groups. Jared lets the fatties have it with a no-holds-barred takedown that would make your Chief blush. Also: the F-15EX has supply chain issues (again), Tech Sergeant promotions spike, and drones in Ukraine are now hiding in IKEA houses.

It’s blunt. It’s brutal. It’s your morning slap of reality—Ones Ready style.

🔥 Key Takeaways:

🇮🇷 Iran Launches Back: 14 missiles fired at Al-Udeid—13 intercepted. Trump responds with fire and profanity.
🛰️ Cyber + Space Ops: Behind every bomber strike is a shadow war of electrons and satellites.
🏃 Air Force Fitness Test Meltdown: 2 miles, 2 times a year = 2 many excuses. Jared nukes the crybabies.
⚠️ Cyber Threats at Dual-Use Airports: Military ops could be vulnerable at shared civilian/military airfields.
🛩️ Pacific War Training: KC-46 refueling ops ramp up for Indo-Pacific ops. Tyranny of distance is real.
🧠 Planning B-2 Missions: Sleep studies, nutrition prep, and Weapon School grads behind the scenes.
🔧 F-15EX Struggles: Cost down, but supply chains, cyber gaps, and insulation problems persist.
🎉 Tech Sergeant Promotions: 25.6% get the bump—highest since 2021. Retention at 90%.
💥 Controlled Detonations: Hill AFB blows up 10,000 lbs of rocket motors. Loud? Yes. Awesome? Also yes.
🛰️ Space Force Highlights: Starlink like fireflies, SCAR programs, and Huntsville cashing $237M checks.
🛠️ Right to Repair: DOD still handcuffed by restrictive contracts—can’t even open some radios.
🐝 Ukraine’s Spiderweb: Drones stashed in prefab homes used to hit Russian bombers. Wild.
🧑‍🚀 NATO’s Space Game: Analysts call for more spending, doctrine updates, and shared intelligence.
