    As too the trouble with Boeings aircraft, yes they are issues, for anyone wondering why. Seriously, look up the age of the Boeing 707 and 737, look at when they were designed and first adopted, go look that up, then realize, the ones placing trouble with them, are privately owned companies, that have routinely neglected upgrades and good maintenance, all so they could a few bucks, while ever increasing the cost of tickets, and cramming more and more seats into the multiple decades old airframes, so they can squeeze even more dollars out the people that they have a monopoly over, those are the only ones having theses problems, the money hungry, multi billionaires who profit off of us, unreasonably, the us military has used the same exact aircraft even earlier than any private operators by a handful of years, they don’t have doors fall off, as they do proper maintenance, every day, all day long, and do upgrades as needed. So before anyone shits on Boeing, even more, how many decades did it take before this started happening, I’ll answer 3-5 decades…of constant, daily use flying all over the US and the planet. Before these problems happened, this isn’t Boeings fault, they worked for at least 3 decades, straight, with the bare minimum done by the civilian world. To keep them operating, it’s an airline problem. That refuse to spend any extra cent anywhere, because they are greedy scum. I worked on attack helicopters for the USMC even older than that, half my squadrons birds first flew and fought in early Vietnam. We never had a single part fall off, that wasn’t shot off, we, my unit had the best safety record of the entire US Military for many many years, and a lot of those years, were consecutive. The only time other units, of the same platforms had parts fall off. Was due to human error, by the maintainers. Never due to part failure, of a far more complex system, helicopters that are older, been through way more stress in flight, aka combat, literally being shot, and pulling way g’s and etc than book says is acceptable and constant flight in training also. Trust me, Boeing knows how to make aircraft, very well, it’s not a design fault on their part, it’s an operator issue.

    You need at least two aircraft carriers to be able to power project at any time. Having at least one in for maintenance at any given time is the reason. Also, China counts all of it's craft, including Patrol Boats, in their count. That makes them the largest navy in the world. China claims 730 "vessels". North Korea claims 519, for the same reason (mostly obsolete and noisy diesel submarines). The US Navy has 470, including the reserve fleet. Of these about 300 are battle force ships, with 280 ready for instant deployment. China has a battle force navy of about 170. North Korea is a big question mark, but certainly nowhere near these amounts. Canada has the advantage of being friendly neighbors with the strongest military in the world, and has lived under that umbrella since WWII. Canada has 34 commissioned vessels, with 12 being battle force. Now, the Australians have 50 commissioned vessels, with a battle force of 28. However, the Aussies are in a "build" mode and will be adding to that number (thank you China). Japan has 155 vessels, with 80 battle force. Japan is also converting at least one, maybe both, of their Helicopter Carriers, to accept the S/VTOL F-35B. Japan is also acquiring 12 new Frigates to add to their battle force. South Korea has 160 commissioned ships, with 80 battle force.

You have the area outside of Nellis AFB, you've got White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico, among many others. Then with the Navy they will do much of their exercises and testing out at sea. So beyond computer modeling and testing like that, they do have at least in a large part physical testing locations all over the world.

    In many ways, the US & Canada are like siblings, sometimes they argue & disagree, but like brothers & sisters, they have each other's back. Since the 1950's they shared Air defenses for North America (NORAD), they have been allies in just about every war in the last 100 years, they are each other's biggest trading partners and have the longest demilitarized border in the world. I don't think many Canadians are concerned the US is going use their military against them.

    MIL-SPEC is different than commercial. Also, what people don't realize is that commercial aircraft are typically 50 years old. They're supposed to be retired after 25 years, but the costs of maintenance vs buying new planes is substantial. When considering things happening in flight, you need to consider how few of these incidents result in a crash landing for an aircraft. More people die in car accidents in a year BY FAR than in commercial plane incidents.

    The Stealth B-2 bomber does, in fact, get used.
    Starting in 1999 in Kosovo.
    In 2003 in Afghanistan and during the Iraki war.
    In 2011 they were used as part of a UN directed operation in Lybia, where they dropped 40 bombs having flown directly from the US to Lybia refuling on air four times.
    Prior to the raid that killed Osama Bin Laden in Pakistan in March 2011, they had considered an airtrike by B-2s as alternative using bunker busting bombs. This was rejected due to potential damage to nearby buildings.
    In 2017 two B-2 attacked an ISIS training camp in Lybia.

Generally a commercial corporation splits their company into a separatly governed entity under a defense contract. They share the same resources as their parent but have their own leadership and production facilities and standards. Especially with vehicles, miltary vehicles are not built in the same factories that build commercial products. There are also onsite military officials, usually, that reports on the quality of the products and are involved in the board meetings.

    China most definitely has a Navy. They also have massive shipbuilding capacity. They currently have 2 carriers, with a third one just about ready to do sea trials. They have another one on the drawing boards. They actually have more hulls in the water right now than the US Navy, although a lot of those hulls are useful only close to their own shores. They don't currently have the blue water Navy experience that the US Navy does, especially with carrier operations, but they are learning and working on it hard. A better metric than total number of ships might be how many Naval missile a Navy can put to sea. Right now, the US Navy still has an advantage in that area, but might not for long at the rate they are building ships.
    Your comments about Boeing, you're not thinking about it correctly. Boeing doesn't perform the day to day maintenance on those aircraft. The Airline that purchased them and owns them does. I think it points more to an Airline maintenance issue than is does a manufacturing issue.

    This video left out tons of things, but is overall correct, like others said it’s a good 2-3 years old by now. For the nuke part, our SLBM’s can carry up to 8 MIRVs per missile and they can each carry like 18-20 missiles per Boomer sub, the ones that can launch nukes, specifically the Ohio class are called boomers. They used to be be able to carry 24 missiles per sub, with up to 8 warheads per missile, before they were treaty limited, even the treaty limited ones can fit an entire nation, that’s one sub, can effectively remove a nation from war, of it came to it. The rest, like 4 of them. We turned in cruise missile boats, that carry a stupid amount of cruise missiles only, but those still have up to a 1000 NM range, depending on models they are carrying. Those can cripple a region of a nation during war, just one. And our spending is over 800 billion USD per year on defense budget, all this is public knowledge for anyone who doesn’t know, I’m giving away any secrets. For the one or two who might think that. And we have 600-1000 base’s overseas, depends on who you listen to, but the best list that was made, from unclassified material is over 800 bases….as to Carriers, we operate more carriers than the rest of the world combined. And the only nation that has all super carriers, aka, big carriers that are nuclear powered, and kore than 2 of them. Like France UK’s carriers are smaller and oil fired boiler, along with most other nations carriers, limits their range to 15000 km without refueling. Our Nimitz class don’t need to refuel for 20 years. The new class of which I think two are operating by now, have upped that needing 25 years before refueling the reactor’s. And we’ve used every weapon system listed here, on combat except our ICBM’s yes, we were bombing the taliban with the greatest and most capable bomber ever made, with the B-2, and JDAMS and cruise missiles, a wee bit overkill. But hey. It’s what we got to use. We also bombed ISIS with the F-22 and F-35. Once again we got them. May as well use em.

    Hi- The US has already flown at least 1 prototype of the new 6th Generation bomber, the B-21 Raider, and will be producing these for use by the Air Force before the end of this decade. The plan now is to upgrade the now 70+ year-old B52 to be a 'weapon carrier' that can launch weapons/missiles that can then be guided by other Air Force aircraft, such as the F22 & F35.
    When enough B-21s are in service, the B-1B swing-wing bombers & B2 stealth bombers will be phased out of service, since the B-21 will be more difficult to detect than even the B2, which first entered service in 1989.
    The US is also developing the NGAD (Next Generation Air Dominance) 6th generation fighter, which is also planned to enter service by the end of this decade. I believe at least 1 prototype is now flying, but still could be in the final assembly stage.
    In addition, all future US fighters will have the capability of having 'Loyal Wingman' Drones fly along with them to help sense and detect enemy aircraft, and targets, and also launch weapons. Each of these drones will be able to be independently instructed by the fighter pilot to sense threats or targets and launch weapons, as needed. Of course, China and Russia, as well as several US allies, are also pursuing such aircraft and systems for the future.
    Sorry for long note, but one last thing is that this video barely mentioned the US nuclear ICBM submarines and attack submarines. There are actually more ICBMs (Trident II's) on US nuclear subs than there are land-based ICBMs. Each submarine ICBM also has MIRV warheads. I wanted to make sure you heard the latest, and you can find out more at several UA-cam websites, and also warriormaven dot com. Later..

The B-1's would act as a missile truck, and it's radar would allow it to engage multiple air threats. The F-35's will pick the targets for the B-1 to hit. In this scenario stealth is not an issue.

Also the US does combined arms training where the army, navy, and air force train together in peace time. Add to that the war on terrorism has given most nco's and mid-high level officers combat experience... something north korea, china, do not have, and russian doctrine has a weak nco corp and most have been destroyed in Ukraine. The US also has the 18th Airborne corp consisting of the 82nd, 101st (the only air assault capable division in the world, and 25th infantry divisions) and between them they can get a divisions worth of assets in the air to head to a fight in under 2 hours.Also even though we spend a lot on defense, the % to gdp is not as high as other countries.
