Wow where have they been hiding this gem, it’s bloody brilliant!

Last I checked, "Ruling the World" was not in the USMC's or US Navy's mission statements.
That said this is a great logistics capability.

This is such an AWESOME IDEA the addition of needed firepower for Marines and Army but even for a disaster

future, period

Didn’t know that US Navy is using the rank of Commodore for a full bird. Thought a full bird is a CAPTAIN.

[@ljsavmech]

Commodore is a 1 star admiral.
He is outside of the normal chain of command.
He is not required the normal military education.
He is responsible for military equipment and personnel
There should be a update on that item alone.

Does this make the INLS system obsolete ?

[@ph11p3540]

It's a supplement to LHA ships. It does not replace them.
