War By Robots: Army Looking For Armed Ground Prototype By 2019

The new combat vehicles must be “optimized for fighting in dense urban terrain.” Fighting in narrow streets, in turn, requires smaller vehicles than the massive M1 — and one way to reduce weight is to take the humans out.

After 20 years of cancelled programs, the Army now wants prototypes of all-new robotic and “optionally manned” combat vehicles by 2019 so soldiers can begin field-testing them in 2020. Compared to current vehicles, they’ll be lighter, smaller and optimized for urban combat, said Brig. Gen. David Lesperance, head of the armor school at Fort Benning, Ga. and the hand-picked head of the service’s Cross-Functional Team on future ground vehicles.

Both established defense contractors and non-traditional companies are currently working on concepts, he told me and two other reporters this afternoon, and there’ll be intense experimentation, modeling, and simulation in the next “six to 12 months.”

Army Chief of Staff Mark Milley created the Cross Functional Teams last fall to advance his Big Six modernization priorities. What’s called Next-Generation Combat Vehicle (NGCV) is No. 2, second only to long-range artillery and missiles. Until this week, however, the CFTs have kept quiet. But Gen. Milley promised the Army would seek “radical,” ten-fold improvements in technology on a tight timeline. Lesperance’s proposal would definitely deliver on that promise — if it works.

Risk Factors

The problem is the post-Cold War Army’s track record on new armored fighting vehicles is unblemished by success. (The successful Armored Multi-Purpose Vehicleis essentially a modified Bradley, not an all new design). While continually upgrading and modernizing the 1980s-vintage M1 Abrams tank and the M2 Bradley, the Pentagon has cancelled the M8 Armored Gun System (1997), the Crusader howitzer (2002), the Future Combat Systems (2009), and the Ground Combat Vehicle (2013). FCS in particular is the dead elephant in the room, because it was the Army’s last attempt at this kind of technological great leap forward, specifically including both manned and robotic vehicles.

Milley has said specifically his Big Six modernization program won’t repeat the mistakes of FCS, and there are grounds for hope. First, technology is just better. The private sector has made dramatic advances in computing power, artificial intelligenc and ground robots since FCS was cancelled in 2009, when the iPhone was in its infancy and self-driving cars were a fantasy.

The Army, for its part, is taking care to prototype the new technology before it commits to an acquisition program, unlike FCS. It has also abandoned the cumbersome mega-program approach of FCS, which was a single contract for eight manned vehicles, multiple ground robots and drones, and a mobile network to...

More Evidence Surfaces About Fake Vatican Letter

More evidence has surfaced concerning the forged letter of Benedict XVI which the Vatican had deceitfully used to refute conservative Catholics who question Pope Francis’ theological formation and teaching.

To recap, Vatican communications director Msgr. Dario Vigano had attempted to elicit Benedict’s endorsement of an 11-volume set he co-authored on the theology of Pope Francis, whereupon the former pontiff replied with a letter saying he would not be able to offer any support for the work.

Apparently angered by the reply, Vigano and his colleagues proceeded to alter p. 1 of the letter, and craftily hiding the second page they photographed the letter and sent it to media outlets on March 13 as a promo to rebut critics of Francis who question his theological and philosophical heft and say he represents a rupture from Benedict’s doctrine-minded papacy.

The Vatican admitted to The Associated Press on March 14 that the letter was doctored. The bottom 2 lines of p. 1 were phased out via Photoshop, so that what was highlighted was a revised p. 1 in which Benedict purportedly criticized Church conservatives for their “foolish prejudice” in not recognizing that “Pope Francis is a man of profound philosophical and theological formation.”

We now have this update from Vatican specialist Sandro Magister that an entire paragraph from p. 2 of Benedict’s letter was deleted by Vigano because Benedict therein expressed his displeasure that anti-papal heretics and enemies co-authored the 11-volume set. The deleted paragraph reads:
“Just as a side note, I would like to mention my surprise at the fact that the authors also include Professor Hünermann, who during my pontificate put himself in the spotlight by heading anti-papal initiatives. He played a major role in the promulgation of the “Kölner Erklärung,” which, in relation to the encyclical “Veritatis Splendor,” virulently attacked the magisterial authority of the pope, especially on questions of moral theology. Also the “Europäische Theologengesellschaft,” which he founded, was initially designed as an organization in opposition to the papal magisterium….

“I am certain that you will have understanding for my declination.”

Magister says in his report, “The letter by Benedict XVI that Settimo Cielo published on March 13 in its complete form was in reality not complete. Between the paragraph omitted in the press release and the valediction there were, in fact, other lines.”

And so we see the Vatican attempting to use the aging Benedict to endorse the multi-volume work that was co-authored by arch-enemies of the papacy and the Church. Deo Gratias that Papa Benedict is still in his wits!

What we need to consider more closely is the diabolical nature of the individual who orchestrated the fake letter. The fact is that Vigano, a known homosexual, hired the radical LGBT communications company Accenture to redo and take over the Vatican’s news service in 2017, which is precisely what led to this insidious...

James Comey’s Book Rockets To Number One Spot, But Fox News’ Gregg Jarrett Just Took The Wind Out Of His Sails

Just one day after former FBI Director James Comey used Twitter to tell President Trump “the American people will hear my story very soon,” his upcoming book, “A Higher Loyalty: Truth, Lies, and Leadership,” has shot to the top of Amazon’s best-sellers list.

Comey’s upcoming book tour and his book, scheduled for release April 17, are expected to try to counter the various allegations put forth by President Trump and Republicans against him.

The former FBI director’s Saturday tweet responding to President Trump’s characterization of recently fired FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe as a “choirboy” compared to “sanctimonious James Comey” was seen by many as an appeal to book sales.


The number one spot is a strong start, to be sure, but Fox News’ Gregg Jarrett took all the wind out of Comey’s sails with one tweet:




“If Comey cleared Clinton for political reasons (as evidence suggests) that’s obstruction of justice,” tweeted Jarrett. “If he gave false testimony to...

VIDEO UK: Muslims riot, assault people with weapons in front of London police today to shut down free speech

The religion of peaceniks stormed the last vestige of free speech in the UK, Speakers’ Corner, the one area where open-air public speaking, debate, and discussion are allowed. Or I should say was. The last corner of freedom in the UK isn’t, and the pretense that the UK is a free country is shattered.

Abdul Hamid and his devout friends assaulted people with weapons today in front of the police. Not one of them were arrested, but the real telling thing is to watch the police not put one hand on the rioting Muslim protestors, and instead manhandle the victims by continuously pushing them away from the aggressors……Two-tier policing in full view of the people. This is Britain in 2018. (source Tommy Robinson Facebook)

Voices of freedom are banned from entering the country. I have been banned along with Robert Spencer, Lauren Southern, Brittany Pettibone and Martin Sellner — all banned because our “presence in the UK is not conducive to the public good.” In other words, Muslims might get violent, so you see, the assassin’s veto prevails in the crippled and dying UK.

Tommy Robinson vowed to deliver Martin Sellner’s speech today at Speakers’ Corner after Sellner was banned from the UK. Sellner, an Austrian and prominent figure in Generation Identity, was due to make that speech in Speakers’ Corner in Hyde Park.

This bloke sums it up rather neatly:
