As I've said for years, follow military issues to understand what's really going on.

@realDonaldTrump has DEFINITELY brought us into the Third Revolution in Military Affairs (3RMA).

This video is very important.
"With the 17th Field Artillery Brigade as its core, the task force also has an I2CEWS detachment testing intelligence, information operations, cyber, electronic warfare and space assets that can counter enemy anti-access/area denial capabilities."
"The Army's space, cyber and electronic warfare capabilities came together for the first time in a single unit during a brief ceremony at Joint Base Lewis McChord, Washington Jan. 11."
"The activation of the new Intelligence, Information, Cyber, Electronic Warfare and Space unit, also known as I2CEWS, was a historic event for the Soldiers of America's First Corps."
The Revolution in Military Affairs (RMA) came about in the late 1980s and early 1990s with the introduction of smart weapons and more advanced technology to communicate and conduct reconnaissance and surveillance.
In around 2007, the Gulf Arabs and Israel created the Second Revolution in Military Affairs (2RMA) with the creation of strategic special-operations units.

Before the 2RMA, special operations units were tactical assets.

The Gulf Arabs and Israelis made them strategic.
They're known as C6ISR units.

Command, Control, Communications, Computing, Cyber Warfare, Commando, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance.

The 2RMA was an interim phase.

Our allies are now well into the Third Revolution in Military Affairs (3RMA), and FINALLY I can tell you EXACTLY how it works.

To toot my own horn, I figured this out in 2015, but now the US Army is confirming it.
"'When we say MDO [Multi Domain Operations] in 2028, ultimately you won’t have individual MDTFs,' Wesley said. 'You’ll have these capabilities at echelon throughout the entire theater.'"
"That means that even company commanders will need to be thinking in all domains and working in a nimble way with data, cloud computing and a combination of sensors, nodes, networks and firing platforms across all of the services and partner nations, he said."
Here's how the US Army is organized:
These capabilities won't stop at the company level.

They'll go all the way down to INDIVIDUAL GROUND TROOPS.

That's what the Gulf Arabs have done.

One-man armies.

Our artillery will have a range of over 1000 miles.

We have Rods From God.
One person on the ground will be able to call in total obliteration.

No need for "ground maneuver"--invading and occupying the enemy's land.

The Gulf Arabs trained the Iraqis in 2RMA tactics in less than two years.
The 3RMA means EVERYBODY will be familiar with how to fight this way.

Now, THIS applies to everyone in every field, so pay attention:
"One of the biggest unrecognized biases is the anchoring effect. Psychologist Daniel Kahneman states that the anchoring effect happens when people consider a value for an unknown quantity before estimating the quality."
"Therefore, leaders must first realize the characteristics of the space domain before they make an assessment on its value."
EVERYBODY who tells me Trump is going to lose or that it's going to be a close election?

Your mind is hobbled by the anchoring effect.

You haven't LEARNED ABOUT what Trump is doing, but you're opining on the value anyway.

Uninformed opinions aren't worth anything.

Sorry.
I KNEW by 2015 that the Gulf Arabs had launched a revolution in military affairs.

It's because of the battle-damage assessment (BDA).

They were taking heavily guarded, booby trapped dams in the middle of the day, in areas with no cover.
THESE OPERATIONS WERE NEVER FILMED.

Saudi-trained Yemeni special forces crossed a five-mile deep minefield in 90 minutes.

They took out hundreds of fighting posts along the way.

NONE OF IT WAS FILMED.

I could go on forever.

And now WE'RE in it. Thanks to Trump.
Back to the first video in this thread.

Every exercise mentioned by the narrator is a purely American shindig.

BUT.

This is a United Arab Emirates Coast Guard offshore patrol vessel (OPV).

The photo on the right is an identified UAE vessel. I can't identify the first one.
And these are NOT Americans.

They're armed with the French FAMAS rifle and wear a totally unknown camouflage pattern.

UAE special-operations troops use the FAMAS.
If the UAE was there, they were obviously advisors making sure we were doing everything right.

At any rate, non-Americans were part of what was said to be a totally American exercise.

In this era of hysteria and stupidity, we don't even have to hide things.
I'm the only person on the face of the planet who picks up on this stuff.

All is well.
