Since the 1960s, the relationship between the United States and Libya was marred by accusations of terrorist activity and charges of weapons smuggling and espionage. Tensions between the two nations came to a head in 1986. In January of that year, the United States broke off diplomatic relations with Libya. In March, the U.S. Navy retaliated after Libyan forces launched surface to air missiles at Navy aircraft. O ....

The re-activated 495th Fighter Squadron, part of the 48th Fighter Wing at RAF Lakenheath, will be called the “Valkyries” and operate the F-35A.
The 48th Fighter Wing, based at RAF Lakeheath, UK, has made it public the nickname selected for the 495th Fighter Squadron, the first U.S. Air Force overseas-based F-35A squadron. The unit had crowdsourced the name last year receiving some 700 different suggestions.

The Israelisation of US foreign policy is hard to reverse

January 21, 2021 at 6:30 am
One of the US foreign policy standards is supporting Israel at all levels, even if that means violating international laws and norms.
Every new US president, before they are elected, is likely to have already made certain pledges favouring Israel during their election campaign. As soon as that president is inaugurated, such pledges become priority actions, usually implemented in their first year.
Furthermore, it is very difficult for any new president to reverse any steps taken by the outgoing president, unless they are unfavourable to Israel – a rarity in US foreign policy.
Joe Biden is no exception. The Democrat, who was inaugurated on Wednesday, has already pledged not to reverse many of his predecessor s policies towards Israel, even though they are illegal and openly contravene international law. For example, Biden has already pledged not to relocate the US embassy back to Tel Aviv after it was moved to Jerusalem in May 2018. Th ....

For the 50th anniversary of the first flight of the legendary F-14 Tomcat, we get a look at how its legacy is still carried on by aviation enthusiasts using today’s technology.
The Grumman F-14 Tomcat flew for the first time 50 years ago, on December 21, 1970. To celebrate the half-century of life of this legendary fighter aircraft and remember its legacy, we will talk about the “Turkey” (as the aircraft would be later nicknamed) first air-to-air encounters and its first air-to-air victories. The episodes we are going to recount, however, were not the first “baptism of fire” of the F-14, as the first combat deployment of the aircraft happened in 1974, when VF-1 “Wolfpack” and VF-2 “Bounty Hunters” ....
