Triple_B@lemmy.zipto World News@lemmy.ml•US nuclear sub offers show of force in the Middle EastEnglish41·1 year agoThe article is playing fast and loose as well.
The US Navy has dispatched a guided-missile submarine to the Middle East.
The posting was revealed by the military in an announcement late on Sunday. The unusual revelation regarding the location of the ship, which can launch nuclear missiles
SSGNs are incapable of launching the missiles the article is thinking of. I suppose one could outfit the boat with the nuclear TLAM-D, but i doubt the Navy would bother.
And there’s no chance in hell an SSBN, the actual sub with SLBMs on it, is going to surface anywhere and pop open a missile hatch (the missiles are launched submerged).
Article is bunk, a GN showed up somewhere and is ready to put tomahawks through windows, business as usual for one of those boats. Show of force? Yes? Show of nuclear warhead force? No.
Sauce - Submariner.
Also sub fun fact, the 4 SSGNs in the US Navy are the Ohio, Michigan, Florida and Georgia. They have a building in Bangor for them, lovingly called the OMFG building.

Triple_B@lemmy.zipto World News@lemmy.world•Ukraine uses US-provided long-range ATACMS missiles against Russian forces for the first timeEnglish261·2 years agoEverything in the military that is an initialism still gets pronounced like it’s an acronym, so I wonder if ATACMS comes out to “attack 'ems”?
Yeah, good luck taking it from them. It’s already negative, so maybe just leave it to the government so I can properly criticize said agencies and leave LGBTQIA+ peeps alone.

Triple_B@lemmy.zipto politics @lemmy.world•Ex-Trump Aide Says Trump’s Use of ‘Riggers’ Isn’t a Racial ‘Dogwhistle – It’s a Bullhorn’English132·2 years agoYall know rigger is a real word right? Like, I work with a group of people explicitly called riggers. They rig stuff up. Use cranes, chain falls, shit like that?
Trump is using a dogwhistle though.
Everyone else in the Navy is weird too, idk why we’re always the ones called out. But yes, can confirm.
My roommate did a recruiter tour (mistake). He’d absolutely chuckle at that meme. Little did he know I was at the local colleges distributing anti-enlistment memes to the young folks.
