An Iranian drone and missile attack hit a US base in Saudi Arabia and has resulted in multiple aircraft damaged and ten servicemembers wounded. Satellite imagery appears to confirm these reports and also shows that we're parking aircraft in the open, inside of Iranian drone and missile range, one month into the start of this conflict. That's unacceptable. We've seen how vulnerable airfields are to cheap drones and there needs to be more done to defend against this new threat.
Per Preston's YouTube page: I'm Preston Stewart I make videos on this channel about the military, national security and foreign affairs. Hopefully some of these short clips make the topics easier for people to understand. I studied International Relations and Terrorism at West Point and from there entered the Army as a Field Artillery officer.

We have laughed at the Russians for leaving planes as sitting ducks out on the tarmac. Have we learned nothing?

And the West is sending supplies to Ukraine. Put in very much sees this war as a chance at fucking over the US because Biden screwed up his little war.
