As awful as war machinery is, still in awe of this fearsome aircraft. The redundancy extends to the pilot's metal 'bathtub' of protection. Interested, like all, to see what downed it.

I'm so old the transistor and I share a birth date. I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.
Not exactly the photo we're waiting to see in the bin, but a good start.

"Pauline Hanson is dangerous not because she remains a grotesque nativist from 1990s Queensland but rather because her rhetoric has been absorbed into the ordinary calculations of Australian politics. That is the real story, not the tedious recitation of the polling data.
"For three decades, she has converted racial grievance into durable electoral power. While the major parties have condemned the ugliest episodes, they have harvested the preferences and moved the centre to accommodate the sentiment. What was once treated as aberrant is now managed as part of the landscape. That accommodation is the failure."

"...anyone who knows anything about this region or oil politics or how defenses work would have told the president that this isn't how things go. But the president isn't being told anything.
"The people in the department of energy and the DoD who were responsible for studying things like choke points and um the straight of hormuz specifically wereall fired last year and the same goes for basically any sort of strategic planning or think work.
"Pete Hegsth, the Secretary of Defense, has been going on a crusade in that anything that does not actively support the war fighter is being cut out of the Department of the Defense. And that removes all education that would allow people to make educated decisions about say what you do in war."
