    What has always worried me is how commercial all the Mil tech has become. Anyone with a computer can learn about almost any weapon system and or gear we use.

    Simply login to this site and learn what the latest and greatest the Americans have to offer

      Given ISIS’s or ISIL’s or Daish’s or whatever we are calling them this weeks mastery of social media and the web, I doubt that they’ll get much actionable info, unless they have some interest in camo pattern procurement or the evils of the PT belt. Particularly with the fact that they are nearly as multi-national as any coalition fighting them.

      There’s typo in the poster – the bullet point about convoy routes and “love one.” She’s kinda hot, in a MILFY/dominatrix sorta way. That hair style can’t be regulation.

      and international commerce in general (with the exception of ITAR) Its weird seeing ISIS fighters with oakley gloves and Blackhawk! rigs.

        Well the Iraqis got all that stuff from us, then many of them dropped their gear and ran. That’s why you see ISIL guys with kitted out M4A1s.

      Security through obscurity regarding of insignificant details was always expensive, useless and always led to false feeling of security, which is dangerous.
      “Anyone with a computer” can’t learn anything really significant even now. Or he can do that only in theory.
      For example, every electronics engineer knows basics of thermal vision. But is he capable to reproduce military-grade thermal vision device from scratch? Definitely, no, because it requires high level of technology and manufacturing culture. That’s why Russians were purchasing thermal cameras for tanks and helicopters from Thales (France) instead of making their own.
      Modern military technology also doesn’t make much sense without proper tactics. And tactics still plays larger role (remember the story of RQ-170 drone, spoofed and captured by Iranian military – they’ve found and exploited the tactical mistake, not hardware problem).
      So, don’t blame internet.

        I’d add to this that posting information can be useful for propaganda purposes. Understating the extent of capabilities you’re known to have can catch enemies unprepared. Similarly overstating capabilities can hurt enemy morale (and help sales).

    Is it just me, or does she look like Mariska Hargitay?
