Hang on tight panicans looks like we are sending long range offensive strike missiles to Ukraine. Its about to get bumpy for you comrades and Putin worshippers.

Theiir “best in the world” air defense sysrem has already been shredded in Russua and Iran by oir left overs. They are sitting ducks

I'm sure someone such as yourself who has advocated for the use of nuclear weapons is giddy at the thought of people dying via missile strikes

we haven't made those high pressure reactors here for decades now



More made up lies

There are like a dozen of them being built on the Houston ship channel alone as I type this

Stop making up shite dude

The fact that many posters here still listen to, upvote, and praise the takes of this absolute clown should ruin any credibility they have. He is literally a proven liar

The reactors are made in Italy, Japan, South Korea or China.

Exactly. I haven't seen a US built high pressure reactor go into a plant in a very, very long time.

A dozen being built on the Houston ship channel seems laughable.

The US plant build I'm most familiar with was a German design and all German engineering (and some of the equipment as well). But the reactors, compressor, and turbines were all Japanese. It seemed more than a little ironic to me given that we won WWII and Germany and Japan were in ruins. The world moves on.

Settle this pissing contest now.

Who is making high pressure reactors on the Houston Ship Channel? Which company(companies)?

I’m just ready for this war to end. We need to be focusing on China and China only. Europeans see us as the enemy now too so frick them. I say make them back up the shite they are talking about being independent of the U.S. and able to stand on their own when they good and damn well NATO doesn’t exist or matter with no United States. Russia is a flea on a horses back to the U.S. military. We need to be focusing all our energy on new tech on all levels of the battlefield. We need to be leading the way in drones, not so far behind it’s laughable. We need to keep pumping out stealth aircraft and field the first operational 6th generation fighter in history. Most of all though, we need to seriously pay attention to our Navy. We need at least 2 dozen more Arleigh Burke destroyers, a dozen new submarines, 10-15 more landing ships and 2-4 more aircraft carriers which means all that comes with 2-4 brand new carrier strike groups. We also seriously need to work on our merchant marine because the number of ships to just transport our gear, food, medicine, etc in a war is dependent on regular commercial ships. In WWII we built so many Liberty ships because we pre-built huge sections then put them together like a puzzle and welded them together. Today’s world won’t be as easy. We need dozens of tanker ships for fuel, several large roll-on, roll-off ships and just plain Panamax cargo ships. More of everything. We need to get into the hypersonic missile game way more than we are and we have to have a clear definition what Japan, South Korea and Australia would do if China went for Taiwan. They are the 3 main allies in the area and we would need them all as South Korea would likely be tasked with handling North Korea. Even being outnumbered by Kim’s troops, the South’s vastly better trained and equipped land and air forces would destroy the north. Keeping the fatty from launching a nuke would be the primary concern there. The South knows where a large percentage of the north stores its nuclear armament so I would expect South Korean F-15 Strike Eagles, F-35s and F-16s for fighter support would immediately go straight for those weapons. As far Ukraine and Russia, its time to stop this shite. Freeze the lines, end the war because this is WWI style war with FPV drones. It has to stop and as bad as I hate for Putin to be awarded land for being an aggressor and invader but everything his shite army has taken they bombed to rubble so good luck rebuilding with that economy already on a knife edge trying to find the tens of billions of dollars to rebuild entire towns and oblasts while also having to completely rebuild its military from the ground up. The fact that Putin hasn’t sat for talks just shows you he’s either got a life altering medical diagnosis or he's just lost his mind entirely thinking he can be this century’s Peter the Great when in reality he’s a ratty looking little midget with a serious little man complex. I’mm shocked one of the Russian higher ups hasn't attempted a coup and tried to kill Putin and his drinking buddy Medvedev.

Matthew Whitaker, United States Permanent Representative to NATO:

I think we all need to understand that really China thinks they're fighting a proxy war through Russia. And we're seeing in some statements by the Chinese government that they want to keep the United States and our allies occupied with this war so that we can't focus on our other strategic challenges. And that's just not true.

It's not going to happen. China, I think, is miscalculated, but I think they need to be called out for their subsidizing this killing that is happening on the battlefields in Ukraine.

You popped in just in time to help the Aggie with the list of who is making high pressure reactors on the Houston Ship Channel? Which company(companies)?

I didn't make the claim, that's up to him to back up.

DoubleB white knighting for Citizen, as usual. I hope he takes you out to dinner or something

No one. In fact most pressure vessel manufacturing is on the NW and North sides of Houston. There is a small shop in League City. Tulsa is still the fired heater, heat exchanger center of the US. There are pressure vessels made there too, high pressure ones are tinker toy size such as those seven installed at Silicon Valley based KiOR in Columbus, MS to deoxygenate a synthetic diesel made from pine trees, which ended up being hazardous waste and never made it to the hydrogenation process. $500 million to make 500 BPD and faked its research to sucker Mississippi out of $200 million or so.
