Seriously, calling it just luck is discounting how practiced these guys are, the Cubans aren’t even close to the same level. And it’s not like it’s everyone just shooting at the same time it’s limited to the 2 to 5 people that can fit down a hall or the average sized room at a time.

Maybe if there’s some level of parity between the two forces which there definitely wasn’t. These Cubans didn’t stand a chance.

I don’t think you can assume everyone is working with the same level of clarity you are.

It’s not how it should work but that’s what happened. How is the average Reaper pilot supposed to know that the JAG approving it was shuffled around to get a sketchy result?

Because this and the other hell site are full of natsec hobbyists who think they can just read substacks of anonymous people who may or may not know what they’re saying and immediately make sweeping claims on everything from brigade combat team task org to ship procurement reform.

I’m not saying it’s morally right or that I agree with it but that’s how it generally works.

JAGs at various levels have decided based of the authorities their commanders were granted that they are legal targets. If it’s not somehow extremely obvious to the servicemember that they are illegal they should be able to assume their orders are legal and coming from the proper authority.

Entire thread is full of people who seem to think unlawful order means “policy I don’t like”.

You win this time 😶‍🌫️

What have you been reading for it?

So the Army making up the assault force made them pretty important…. the lynchpin perhaps…

Is this guy dull or did he miss them try this almost four years ago?

You don’t know what the fuck you’re saying lmao

No because the 160th and the Ranger Regiment are actually good at their jobs.

The Army isn’t the Marine Corps so I think we’ll be fine.

You can find it more reliably in Armor Magazine or Line of Departure. For whatever the branch journal articles they post on the Army website often has their links die.

The autonomy on it is cool, but it’s essentially like setting up a mini TOC or TAC and its two chains that can be broken; maneuver unit to UGV op and UGV op to the UGV itself. Better option is stuff like the SMET where the op is in the formation using a controller.

Unless the UGV has a way to keep the operator with the actual maneuver element it’s going to slow them down. My unit is buying Overland AI ULTRAs which require a laptop, generator, and Starshield satellite to control it all which limit how much a light infantry company can move with it.

During the Booker Force on Force last year they would go up against Geronimo T-72s in straight up fights and it usually ended in 1 track from either platoon left. All with MILES so take that as you will. Also got told by a Booker NCO that at least to the front they were immune to 30mm autocannons.
December 31, 2025 at 8:11 PM
It weighs a few tons less than a T-72 and during Force on Force testing I know they fought Geronimo T-72s a few times, usually resulting in mutual platoon destruction. Granted that’s all using MILES but I think vs ZTD-05s that are swimming I think the Booker would be fine.
