WarTalk: Kofman on Starlink + What Ukraine Can Teach the U.S. Military
Ukraine and Russia have rebuilt their armies around drones, deception, and long-range strike. What should the U.S. military take from it?
Michael Kofman joins WarTalk regulars Jordan Schneider, Justin McIntosh, and Tony Stark.
We discuss:
How much leverage the U.S. still has over the war, and why Europe can't replace America's role in NATO.
Why buying drones means nothing without drone platoons and companies to fight with them.
Why no one owns the night anymore, and why the U.S. military has no culture of decoys.
What counts as a lesson from Ukraine, and discussions on wet-gap crossings
Plus: getting rich as a military analyst, and how to tell real maneuver from sparkling mobility.
