Monday NatSec Roundup
The days are gone forever when our enemies could blackmail us with nuclear bombs.
- Biden administration mulling means of retaliation after another big Chinese cyber-op…
- Managing the cyber-maritime environment… plus a bit on how the shipping industry has managed through the pandemic.
- How Moscow thinks about aerospace defense. Lotta interesting stuff in this one on Russian strategic attitudes and bureaucratic realities.
- There seems to be interest from Biden in disposing of the 2001 and 2002 AUMFs in favor of a more limited authorization, which is awfully good news.
- There also seems to be at least some degree of a consensus building that it might be possible to defer modernization or dispense entirely with the “missile sponge” part of the nuclear triad…
- Awfully interesting presentation on battleships vs. aircraft carriers in World War II…
