Finland
Because Ukraine was never beyond possibility. Because a trained reserve and a high will to defend the country remain foundations of Finland’s defence. Because, as Hillel said, "If I am not for myself, who will be for me? If I am only for myself, what am I? If not now, when?"

Jesus Christ the Norwegians went hard with this book. It's all 100% true btw.

Very harsh but unfortunately quite fair description of what has just happened in 🇪🇺 from @IlvesToomas 👇
Oh great. Take a hostage, get your Putin crony mafioso oligarch off the sanctions list. Watch this become a regular practice. (It already got the GRU Berlin killer get out of prison last year).

As Denmark sends conscripts abroad, it’s time to repost my comment on the Finnish force structure which the politicians doesn’t seem to want to talk about. But, hey, it’s not like there are some worrying signs the resolve of our alliance might be about to be tested? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
🇩🇰Danish national service conscripts will be deployed to Latvia already next year as part of the enlarged and extended deployment of a btn to 6 months alternately with a 🇸🇪Swedish btn to avoid gaps. Last time 🇩🇰Danish conscripts served abroad was in 🇩🇪Germany during the Cold War

As expected FREMM EVO is the most likely contender to replace ASWF for Belgium, though I’d consider “delivery in 2028” slightly unrealistic. ASWF tanking some heavy hits; From 4 prospected foreign buyers to zero. premium.marineschepen.nl/ita……

That is correct. But seeing the units and knowing their intent are two different (and partly unrelated) tasks. This is something that has been demonstrated several times, including by the Soviet Union in Czechoslovakia and by Egypt and Syria in 1973.
Anything larger than a battalion sized SOF operation close to Russian military base should give a good warning to NATO intelligence. That said, Russia has a rebuilt mechanized corps that is trained, equipped and not engaged in Ukraine. It won't move "stealthy" though.

The start of the Yom Kippur War is an extremely interesting study in how knowing things and getting the correct information up to the political leadership are two different things. There’s a lot to be learned from the war in general.

Happy to have published my first text at the Royal Swedish Society of Naval Sciences blog, where I add some further comments to the question of crew sizes for frigates in general, and the French manning of their FDI-class in particular.

Why do I start thinking about some Ace Combat superweapon, that preferably can only be destroyed by lobbing a missile through the arch? 😎
We must not allow a militarized arch gap.

We must not allow a militarized arch gap.
At the strong request of the United States Military, and for National Security purposes, I have agreed to convert the magnificent Triumphal Arch, planned since the Civil War Era many years ago, at the Receptive Circle adjoining the Arlington Memorial Bridge, into a top grade Military Complex/Triumphal Arch, to house, store, and have the rapid ability to use large numbers of drones, plus Snipers, on both the roof and plaza areas, and additionally have and hold large quantities of sniper ammunition in storage. There will be no facility like this anywhere in the World. Out of the 59 top cities and Capitals, Washington, D.C., IS THE ONLY ONE IN THE WORLD THAT DOES NOT HAVE A TRIUMPHAL ARCH, but it will now and, by far, the greatest of them all! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP ( TS: Sep 20 2026, 7:34 AM ET )​​​​​​​​‍‌​​​‍‍​‌‍‌‌​​​​​​‍​​‍​​‌​‌‍​‍‌‌‌​‌‍

Compared with the Hornet fleet, the role of conscripts in operating the F-35 will remain virtually unchanged, meaning that even with the introduction of the new aircraft type, the duties of conscripts and reservists will not undergo significant changes.
Finland’s first #F35s have arrived! On 18 Sep, aircraft JF-510 and JF-512 arrived in Rovaniemi. The first aircraft landed at 5.45 pm. General Janne Jaakkola: “However, the arrival of the first aircraft in Rovaniemi is not the end point, but the beginning.” ilmavoimat.info/f35inFinland

4x Tornado. @CorporalFrisk - there you go, still roaring over the Baltic. Though in a duller paint scheme. 😌

The Navy, Air Force and advanced capabilities such as the Coastal Defence Cruise Missile units are securing the island to showcase the swiftness of Allied resolve in Northern Europe.

I'm going to guess it is this beauty that is pulling our first F-35s home. Fun fact, the 'T' in KC-135T indicates that is one of the KC-135 that were modified back in the time to be able to supply fuel to the SR-71 Blackbird. The tanker is by now 60+ years old, a true veteran.

Expect the puck media and the puckheads to swallow this hook, line and sinker. He is an avid supporter of a fascist party that is waging a genocidal war of conquest. He stands by indicted war criminals. Unbelievable that he isn't pressed on this at all.
Ovechkin acknowledged the video to open his presser, mentioned he is Russian and has family and friends back there.

While this is without doubt a good and sensible idea, there's just no denying that the MFG Tornados in their grey-white camo roaring low over the waves of the Baltic Sea was a much *cooler* way of providing that capability 😎
According to @hartpunkt Bundeswehr will initiate the procurement of JSM antiship missiles to arm Marineflieger P-8A before the end of this year. German naval aviation thus would regain fixed wing anti-shipping capability the service lost two decades ago. hartpunkt.de/flugkoerperbewa…
