This music and presentation and production quality screams 90’s. I’m thoroughly enjoying It

[@rm3950]

Huh? It was made after 2003 since it does show the Aim-9x deployed from an F-15. Why they show it from an F-15 rather than an F-22 (deployed in 2001 I think) is probably due to the low budget quality of this doc. I'm sure most footage was pulled from other sources, and the music clearly has that '80’s analog sound. To stay in budget, using that music means they didn't have to pay for 'forgotten' '80's music pulled from other sources too. Nonetheless, it does remind me of the very early '90's Discovery Channel docs. It doesn't scream 90's to me as much as it screams low budget cable tv or low budget military docs. But i'm with ya, i'm diggign' it too.

[@mr.niceguy1812]

This is really neat, but the narration & music throughout makes it feel like a corporate training video at McDonald's or subway.

80s

[@markbrisec3972]

I personally like it.. It's so 90s.. It brings up memories and sounds of a different era..

[@antonioluna5312]

Love this channel

[@CD-SU]

You don't have to like the subject to find it educational - it's simplistic for those who want to understand basic warfare elements of a superpower. It does sound like a bygone era of military hardware manufacturers though.

[@kennethfarley8347]

This looks like an episode of the History Channel from the 90's cable tv.

[@kevinlue4756]

Who else is here watching this in 1989?

[@robinreji1884]

Bring back the animation

[@penduloustesticularis1202]

This is at least thirty years old.

[@suhaipalsawafi1074]

Alot of noisy music

[@zillsburyy1]

jesus christ, how old is this?!

[@adolfdyversiti6517]

America exporting democracy,freedom,inclusion,diversity,multiculturalism.

[@gdurant]

Unfortunately guys it looks like manned aircraft are obsolete. Recent wars the last 5 years or so have shown that drones and ground-based missiles are what's needed and what is effective. As an example Army MLRS systems can react within minutes and destroy targets within 30 minutes at maximum ranges. A similar type of strike by the Air Force or Navy could take hours or days to execute by comparison. Worse yet, manned aircraft are a hundred times more expensive to maintain and deploy than ground-based Long range Army systems. Worse yet, the Army is now deploying its hypersonic missile system which can reach out about 1,300 mi at around Mach 10..

[@DaveSCameron]

Just considering your title here and it's a little tragic to promote the accuracy of a country's bombing capabilities globally, we are living in peace time all said?

[@formalbug5716]

Especially a nation like the US who has a pretty bad track record of killing more civilians with their "precision strikes" than they actually do" bad guys".

[@cockneycharm3970]

@@formalbug5716 Absolutely

[@factanonverba6169]

Look around, smell the roses!

[@t74guard78]

A big reason for that is because the US can bomb with great accuracy. Guess you not intelligent enough to understand that. But you should understand it now.

Russia bring pickles to war

[@adityadheerajkalabarigi1260]

Needs an update- "But only one country has the broad range.....". India has the Brahmos which is the best in its class

[@WizzRacing]

The video was on Combined arms. Instant attack doctrine..In other words. The United States Military simply overwhelms you from Land, Air, Sea all at once. Not one single weapon system. Why, Time is the real weapon. That control what, when and where. No other country has that ability. Not even China. See why the Russians are failing in the Ukraine. They piece meal out their assets. And the Russians are getting annihilated. From their own Boarder...As the Ukrainian Army controls, When, Where and How. Ie Time..As the Russians react to them.

[@Richbydesignpullupj26]

Ima change the USA 🇺🇸 background flag as black red white stars and blue

[@t74guard78]

How about we change your status of life? Now that would be something. The US flag is perfect and represents us perfectly. All colors of freedom and the best place to be. Probably no need to change the colors of your flag. Your country is probably so insignificant, it doesn't even have one. hahahahha

[@rachel0706]

better for you guys that you stopet the add or you would lose me as a subcriber

[@formalbug5716]

A better title would be "How America exploits it's working class so that they may maintain their imperialist ambitions under the guise of 'national security' and 'humanitarian intervention'. "

[@galatians-2.20]

Wow you really ate up all the propoganda you could huh? You don't even understand what you just exposed yourself as being. Start thinking for yourself dude

[@JoeDiGiovanniIV]

Someone feeling a bit salty ?🧂

[@dmmusicmusic]

maybe. don't know where you're from, but American private non-profit's give more to humanitarian relief than any people in the world ( humanitarian intervention).
