re: Boeing weapons don't work in Ukraine

Russians are better at EW than we are. They’ve invested in it heavily.
By the time we sent the GLSDB, they’d learned to largely neutralize our gps guidance systems. We’ve seen that with the GMLRS, ATACMS, and our JDAM. They’ve also gotten good at intercepting them with their air defense systems.

Boeing has become such a shite show.
Typical c-level ruination of a once perfectly viable corporation…

The guided bombs aren't failing. Russia is countering them. Their failure has nothing to do with the quality Boeing provided.
Hedy Lamarr (yes the movie star Hedy Lamarr) provided the US military with a proposal on communication with weapons to avoid jamming. They told her to go back to the movies and years later when building the land based nuclear program they found her proposal and consulted with her and used the tech. It later became the foundation for blue tooth tech.
So yes, anti jamming tech on weapons has been pretty standard for 70 years, to say Boeing provided a complete weapon is akin to delivering a car with no wheels.
But dont ask me ask those ukranians on the front lines depending on them for cover

I wonder if Boeing is being sabotaged by large stock shorters.

Well, that's concerning...
No what should be concerning is that the Biden administration has now given the Russians (and by default their Chinese allies) a chance to interact with an entire generation of munitions, rendering them useless in an actual hot war because they now have countermeasures.

As much as I hate the spending, we are learning. Now, they aren't using top equipment, but we didn't send Ukraine the best either. The Russian economy is roughly the size of New York. They cannot compete in a non-nuclear conflict. Their tech is comparable to late 90s to 00s with their stealth tech being about on par to late 80s early 90s US tech.
Tell us more Mr. Spy

The Russians have gone to school on NATO weapons systems. They have become stronger as a result of this war.
So has NATO. For example, Ukraine has figured out how to get old western cruise missiles past Russia’s most advanced air defense systems. You have to be a certified idiot if you think NATO observers are not over there taking lots of notes.
