@madskorsager.bsky.socialA big one ticked off my personal bucket list this morning. ✅🇬🇧 A beautiful weekend run through the military training grounds around the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst. Not your average Saturday morning run.
@madskorsager.bsky.socialIf that’s the case the episode must be recorded. Even with that kit on is it still standard procedure also to use a manual camera?
@madskorsager.bsky.socialNej det er bizart
@madskorsager.bsky.socialInteresting! What is that little bubbly piece of kit?! Did not know that the Fennecs had FLIR or whatever kits on…?
@madskorsager.bsky.socialUPDATE The Danish Armed Forces tell Danish Broadcasting Corp. that not all the footage shown in the Russian news report is from the actual incident
@madskorsager.bsky.socialThe battle for the cognitive domain? 🇷🇺🇩🇰
Russian state TV claims a Danish Fennec helicopter flew just 50 metres from a Russian corvette.
Denmark says the distance was at least 150 metres.
Two very different versions of the same encounter. A battle over the narrative?
@madskorsager.bsky.socialDet må siges at være rigtigt. Er de på plads i 2030 eller lign? ASW får vel 5-10 operative år før skrogene falder for aldersgrænsen. Men nuvel. Lex Thetis. Den er jo en flydende grænse, den med alder.
@madskorsager.bsky.socialJamen… er det ikke et FLEKSIBELT STØTTESKIB?!
@boelkjaer.bsky.socialReposted by @madskorsager.bsky.socialFlere indsatte soldater oplyser, at de observerede et objekt, der nærmede sig lejren fra nordvest. Dette objekt »afkastede først ét objekt, der fløj bort, hvorefter det afkastede yderligere ét objekt, der ligeledes fløj bort,« fremgår det af den nye redegørelse.
@madskorsager.bsky.socialYES! Kæmpe transfer! Tillykke mayn.!!
@madskorsager.bsky.socialHegseth’s reshaping of the US military into something resembling a testosterone club on speed - with no off switch - is one of the most disturbing things I’ve read in a very, very long time.
@madskorsager.bsky.socialMos def on the reading list!
@madskorsager.bsky.socialAfter cutting public-facing communication almost to the bone, the Royal Danish Defence College is opening its windows to society again. 🇩🇰 Great to see. This is important knowledge - and it deserves to be shared with the public.
@madskorsager.bsky.socialKeeping Denmark’s EH-101 helicopters flying will cost another DKK 2 billion (€268m). 🇩🇰🚁
And even after that, it remains uncertain whether the fleet can handle both search and rescue - and the tactical troop transport capability Denmark has promised NATO
@madskorsager.bsky.social💯 pct !
@madskorsager.bsky.socialLex Randers. Passer på de fleste af livets spørgsmål. Du sår hvad du høster etc etc. Arh, okay, lige i det specifikke lokalområde inkl 8500 Grenå kan man komme ud for at høste mere end selv har sået, men okay…
@madskorsager.bsky.socialMen det er klart at hvis Fennec’en kommer provokerende til fregatten så kommer fregatten også provokerende til Fennec’en. Lex Randers.
@madskorsager.bsky.socialDet er jo ikke svært, for christs sake. Kom den Fennec provokerende til fregatten? “Nej, den fløj efter nøjagtig det samme mønster som utallige gange før og ikke tættere på end 150 m. Signalblusset fløj 10-15 m fra stellet og besætningen følte sig i livsfare og trak sig.” Okay, tak.
@madskorsager.bsky.socialEnig. Der har ganske enkelt manglet et svarberedskab til de helt rimelige spørgsmål. Et godt sted at starte er med noget som dette.
@madskorsager.bsky.socialWhen national security trumps old laws 🇩🇰📡
Denmark’s Weibel is developing radar technology for ballistic missile defence and counter-drone systems.
Now, its previously illegal test site has been allowed to expand.
A small but telling sign of Europe’s new defence reality.
