Ep 005 "Fixing Fight Club: 21st Century Nuclear Renaissance"

Effective 20 June 2025, I did a major improved revision on the sound quality for all my WarNotes episodes retroactively thanks to the technology at Podsworth.

A complete reassessment of American nuclear weapons has to be done.

In the future near-peer and peer fight, nuclear weapons will be an option in the 21st century and no one can predict how they will used.

In concert with the emerging Revolutions in Military Affairs (RMA) such as robotics, autonomous targeting and hyper-velocity weapons systems that are earth shattering and millennial bending, it is time to calibrate and reassess expectations and the dust off the war-gaming illusions that created the system of planetary suicide hovering over the world today.

What happens with the advancement of space weapons which is now in the near future; what about the impact of these weapons dilemmas on a multi-planetary human evolution?

Stop the madness.
