The U.S. Air Force is preparing for nuclear armed B-52 bombers to be put back on 24-hour alert for the first time in 25 years as tensions rise between North Korea and President Donald Trump.

I was curious as well. Then, I decided that I don't even want to know.

Feeling jaded? Can’t imagine why... oh, and here’s an updated mantra to replace what they said in the 60’s:

“Turn off, tune out, and get back to work”

B-52's back to failsafe, eh? Better pull some more airframes out of AMARG and accelerate that re-engining program, because the JT3D's are going to start breaking down under that sort of sustained workload.

I wonder what they are loading them with, the B-52 is not a good penetrator anymore, so prolly AGM-86 ALCM's, can't see them trying to go downtown with the B61's in a BUFF these days.

AGM-86 ALCM, that's a destabilizer, the Rooskies are not going to take kindly to that. I'm thinking the response will be Tu-95 with Kh-102, but maybe even Iskander-N to Kaliningrad.

Cold War 2.0 continues to escalate back towards the brink, woot-woot!

Giant offensive manned machines will be the wooden boats of WW3.

Taking a little walk on the SIFCLIF side, Smitts?

Nah, Cold War 2.0 is not SIF, lived happily under the shadow of that brink for 45 years, no biggie, nuclear deterrence it not assurance, but it's still a mighty deterrent, I wouldn't lose any sleep over it, but Lockmart shareholders do indeed approve.

Cold War is the best of all worlds, force that gives you meaning, with all the spinoffs, nary a shot fired short of misapprehension, miscalculation or mistake, same as it ever was.

If anything, I would prefer things to be wound right up the brink, better and safer to have things clear and present at all times, with no delusions of grandeur; stay frosty, they don't call it the Balance of Terror for nothing; no existential terror, no balance.
