We would supply overall intelligence on the whereabouts and movements of distant echelons. Our overhead systems (both space and air breathing) would permit pinpointing of enemy platforms. Our distributed sensor systems would be put in place to operate, analyze, and convert data into fire-control solutions. This would permit friendly forces to take precise measure of the enemy, providing them with real-time one-shot, one-kill capability. We might even control the targeting once they have fielded the weapon. In some cases, the United States might be able to tilt the contest to one side without unambiguous proof that we had intervened at all. The use of stand-off sensors as a substitute for forces also frees us from the necessity of overseas bases; they permit more operations to be planned and conducted from international waters. https://bit.ly/4bhfSGw

Intelligence Book of the Day: Project Eagle: The Top-Secret OSS Operation That Sent Polish Spies behind Enemy Lines in World

A congressional hearing on UAP transparency is taking place right now involving senior Pentagon and US military personnel. In truth many people are going to struggle with this intellectually or emotionally. We are not alone in the Universe and it's no longer appropriate to stigmatise this topic or laugh at it. People will have to find a way of coming to terms with this. We were never alone and the truth has been covered up from the people of the world for over 80 years. This illegal secrecy has stifled the progression of the entire human race and it is now drawing to a close, as increasing numbers of courageous whistleblowers start to come forward. The military and intelligence community must never again be allowed to influence the perception of reality, as the counter intelligence operations carried out over the past century were designed to do. What they have done amounts to nothing less than a crime against humanity. Allegations that certain aerospace companies, have in their possession Extra Terrestrial technology, supplied to them by crash retrieval teams are getting louder. This concept was again stated in this hearing by Lue Elizondo. Welcome to the future. Our reality has caught up with our science fiction. Our future is more hope filled, exciting and awe inspiring than we could have dared to dream. https://lnkd.in/esmHkrvH

How fast can we transfer Information? The answer is 2 * 13.605693,… eV/c2 at the speed of light c, An electron has the rest mass 510998.950003 eV/c2 , and it travels At the velocity c/137.035999084,… m/s = 2.99792458,… * 108 / 137.035999084,… m/s  = 2.187691265,… * 106 m/s , (about 2.2 million meters per second) , the dual Electro-Magnetic Photon carries it’s restmass of 2 * 13.605693,… eV/c2 at the speed of light, and the amount of information it transfer is 2 * 13.605693,…/ (c/137.035999084,…)2 eV = 510998.95003,… eV/c2 of mass, the same amount of information as the electron can carry , the two particles carry exactly the same amount of information, this is a neccesary condition for the atom to withold , otherwise the atom would collapse, all forces is transferred with the same efficiency, so strictly speaking from the equation of kinetic energy E=mv2 /2 we have the amount of information or energy as E = m c2 . So the general formula for the velocity of a particle will then be: v = c* sqrt(2*m0/m) , with the photon mass 2*m0 and the mass of a particle equal to m. This is why the Universe can accelerate past the speed of light. The principle can be compared to a paralellogram or paralellopiped where the area or volume always is constant and never change.

https://lnkd.in/gNsEnHTY In terms of previous posts where I have talked about the Deterrence Triad, Capacity, Capability, Will, this type of messaging by the PRC to spanish speaking world and to the Global South in their attempt to show off capabilities is disturbing. It is important as strategists to acknowledge these attempts at escalation.

This article is ~2 years old but does a great job explaining how the UFO phenomenon broke through over the past decade. Travis Tritten really did his homework. I haven't seen many other pieces on the topic that are this well-researched. This quote by Christopher Mellon (a former high-level U.S. intelligence official) stood out to me and parallels my own perspective: "I found out that this had been going on not just for months, but for years in dozens and dozens of incidents off the coast, including a near midair collision. [...] And the secretary doesn't know. Congress doesn't know, senior officials don't know. I mean are you kidding me? This is such a grotesque failure of imagination, of curiosity and of the system." Since this article was published in March 2022, Congress has learned a great deal more, in part through the sworn testimony of David Grusch (a former U.S. intelligence official) in July 2023. As a result of what Congress has learned, they have been working on legislation to address the issue (some of which has already become law). Here's a post I wrote about that several months ago: https://lnkd.in/ev-s3rX3 More legislation and hearings are likely in the coming years and may come as soon as this year. I think this is just the beginning of this story. If you're interested in going down the rabbit hole, I have assembled a resource library of articles, podcasts, and videos/documentaries: https://lnkd.in/gfCVygc6

Advanced Artificial Intelligence for Very Large-Scale Intelligent Multi-Agent Networks and Systems in Cybernetics and Real-Time Multi-Domain Intelligent Battlefield Management Systems.

Unpacking the Tiger tank in Allied intelligence.... THE TIGER TANK was dramatically more powerful than any other tank when deployed in 1942. Why were the Allies taken by surprise? How did the Germans preserve its secrets? After 20 years of research on three continents, across 25 battle maps, 31 tables of data, more than 500 photographs and drawings, and previously unidentified first-hand accounts, these volumes reveal what Allied technicians discovered and what the propagandists covered up and distorted. Thus, we can learn more about the Tiger as it really was, rather than the hearsay that history books perpetuate. THIS FIRST VOLUME explains what foreigners knew about Germany’s heavy tanks from 1926 to 1943; how the British decrypted signals about Tigers months before confirmation in the field; how the Soviets fought Tigers eight months before sharing intelligence with Allies; how the Western Allies fought Tigers seven weeks earlier than they realized; how the French were the targets of the first deep battle involving Tigers, but the Americans captured the personnel and components, while the British captured the imagery. The capture of Tiger 231 is stranger still. British units claimed it, but a Canadian commanded the company that first fired on it, and a Canadian engineer was the first to exploit it; although it lay within Allied lines, the Germans demolished it; they rated the demolition as thorough, but two British technicians heroically and accurately analysed the wreck; yet propaganda and political spin proved more enduring, even today.

In what is probably my last article for 2024, I explore key trends in the trajectory of war and some thoughts on 2025. https://lnkd.in/gsNnXvuQ

Late to this, but some of my mutuals on here may be interested in this excellent work from Michael Smith. The Real Special Relationship paints the portrait-over-time of the US-UK special relationship in intelligence from the Second World War to the present. Smith tells the story in deeply researched vignettes of intelligence failures and successes with unvarnished contemporary opinions from one side or the other on the value or disappointments in the relationship after major incidents. Especially compelling are Smith’s reconstructions of intelligence pictures being painstakingly assembled in real time for what became major world events, especially the Cuban Missile Crisis and Yom Kippur War. Fragments of SIGINT, HUMINT, and IMINT are gradually connected, leading to hypotheses, the cross-cuing of sensors, and eventually to an understanding of intents and indicators that guide policy responses. Also revealing are the disagreements in analysis, some borne of access to different intelligence, others of policy conflicts. Nuanced but slower assessments from the UK often balance American assessments that skew to riskier, faster conclusions. That complementarity and diversity of interpretation is shown to be the core of the special relationship. And it’s valued enough to be nurtured by both intelligence communities even through periods of deep policy divergence. This is a fascinating history, freshly and very well told. Highly recommended. https://lnkd.in/g9ucvDS6
