I still have one, I do not know if you remember a kit they sold. It contained a 4 D cell light with a 2 D cell extender to make the 4 into a six. Well guess what happened people would add the 2 Cell extender to a 6 cell light and make an 8 cell. The kit was discontinued shortly after introduction.
I have one in each cell count still, hard to believe these were the best light available at one time. My phone is brighter than they were.
I have a 6D with the extension (8 D), and you can buy an aftermarket 10 watt cree bulb that makes it brighter than most surefires.

just like here?


As bad as stealing is; the more sad part is NOTHING is being done to prosecute and convict those who perpetrate these crimes. Crime, that in my opinion are treasonous and should be met with nothing short of hanging.

I'm sure when COVID happened, a few folks who ran and got ballots for people unwilling to come to the ballot box were done in good faith; but we now know a majority of it was pure cheating.

i hope we are prepared.

So, the ones we built are still having issues...... So, china built a bunch and they work?

A 2012 report by Rear Admiral Samuel Perez, USN, found that the ships lacked the manpower and firepower to complete the missions required by regional combatant commanders. The report found that the LCS is "ill-suited for combat operations against anything but" small, fast boats not armed with anti-ship missiles. It also found that the excessive beam (width) of the trimaran Independence-class ships may pose a "navigational challenge in narrow waterways and tight harbors".[131]

Reduced procurement and early retirement​

On 14 December 2015, Secretary of Defense Ashton Carter ordered the Navy to reduce the planned procurement of LCS and FF ships from 52 to 40

Littoral Combat Ship: $100,000,000,000 Billion U.S. Navy Mistake​

program faced design disputes, cost overruns, faulty weapon systems, and frequent maintenance issues.

Why is US Navy Retiring a 6-Year Old Ship?​

i heard we might partner with japan to start building more ships, since apparently we don't have that capacity either.

OK... this ...entire event really pisses me off... I'm a pilot, and when I took flight training, and I'm sure I'm not the only one here; my flight instructor was competent enough to sense danger and say "I'm taking control". ...or something like that.

Was the flight instructor DEI also? WTF?

this is the "news". hide the facts...blur them out...push the lies...



What is their market share? Other than snippets here, I don't turn on any of that shit.

Hell, 95% of my news is found here first and it's generally not altered or slanted, it's just the facts.

You can't hate them enough
 

dude or dudette on the tractor, pulled the plane right off the edge.
Avoiding the Houthis?? What the fuck? Aren’t cheap boats like destroyers supposed to sacrifice themselves by ramming these shit stains in speed boats? Who is choosing to risk a carrier in this situation? How many billions again some goat fucking clowns in a shitty speed boat? The US deserves to collapse if this is the best it can do.
