You can't be a jack- of -all -trades master -of -none F-18 pilot with multi-role missions on an aircraft carrier.
With many mid-ranked aviators quitting, hopefully the movie Top Gun Maverick will motivate a new generation of Naval aviators.
Challenges remain. The lead from the rear President Biden Administration is giving a 4% increase to the defense budget. We have 10% inflation and fuel costs are eating into existing budgets.
We have possible conflicts with Iran, Russia and communist China on the horizon yet this president wants to give 15% boosts to certain departments in the government to help mitigate climate change when a small nuclear war could destroy all that effort..
This article critiques that the naval squadrons are overstretched in their missions and add insult to injury is the Biden Administration doesn't want to give money to the Navy. In fact, the Navy is thinking of getting rid of over two dozen warships and only building 8 because of budget cuts and ships being too old.
When in a bad peace like we have right now, prepare for war but President Biden kisses butt to some of our enemies and thinks more about climate change than he does about keeping our military at the proper budget level.
