It's day four of Israel's relentless bombing campaign against Iran, and the death toll is spiralling. Iran says 224 of its citizens are dead. Israel reports 24 lives lost and over 500 injured in a barrage of Iranian retaliatory strikes. And this war is only just getting started. The Israeli airstrikes have gone far beyond nuclear sites. Government buildings, intelligence headquarters, the ministries of justice and foreign affairs—obliterated. Tehran is being shaken to its core. Is this really just about nukes? Or are we watching an attempt to bring the regime to its knees?On the streets of Israel, the mood is grim but defiant. Iranian missiles have struck Tel Aviv and other cities hard. So how much more can Israel's famed Iron Dome take? We speak to The Telegraph's man in Jerusalem, Henry Bodkin, who's been reporting from the sites of the Iranian attacks. His frontline insights give us a chilling look at the damage—and the determination of a country under fire.Then we hear from two men who know what they're talking about. David Albright has spent years analysing Iran's nuclear ambitions. He tells us how close they really are to the bomb—and whether Israeli jets can stop it. And Frank Ledwidge, former intelligence officer and expert on air campaigns, tells us why this war will drag on, and what Israel's real endgame might be. https://linktr.ee/BattleLinesContact us with feedback or ideas:battlelines@telegraph.co.uk @venetiarainey@RolandOliphant Hosted on Acast.

Episode Summary: As the Air Force develops the operational construct for Collaborative Combat Aircraft, Doug Birkey and Brig Gen Houston "Slider" Cantwell, USAF (Ret.) urge the service to tap into two decades of lessons learned flying highly sophisticated uncrewed aircraft like the MQ-1 Predator, MQ-9 Reaper, RQ-4 Global Hawk, and RQ-170. Harnessing his experience as an uncrewed aircraft pilot and commander, Cantwell explores the tremendous insights gained through uncrewed operations and the fundamental differences from traditional crewed combat aircraft operations. While CCA will execute at an entirely new level of performance, thanks to technologies like artificial intelligence and advanced mission systems, there are also foundational realities tied to uncrewed aviation that will shape how these aircraft fly and fight. Join us to learn more about this aspect of tomorrow's airpower.

Where do airpower, charity, and bourbon intersect? Retired E-2 Hawkeye legend Rear Admiral Scott Sanders has the answer. And CSIS's Dr. Tom Karako joins us with the latest on air and missile defense, especially Golden Dome. All powered by GE!

After more than 3 years of war in Ukraine, the Russian military is not a spent force: indeed, the combination of more flying hours for more aircrew, 3 years of combat experience in CAS, AI, CAP, Strike and ISR missions, a war economy supporting new airframes and weapons, and low pilot attrition rates has made the Russian Air Force capable of what it was supposed to do in 2022 – and then some. It now has the ability to outmatch European NATO states in capability, experience and fighting power for the next decade. Professor Justin Bronk, Senior Research Fellow for Air Power at RUSI in London, explains why a wholesale shift to drones isn't going to be the ubiquitous answer that the speeches from military and political leaders make out. As the IAMD system in NATO states matures (albeit at differing speeds), the Russian system is also a major factor in air power planning for the future. The impact on how NATO wants to fight, and how it will have to fight, is stark. And it's not going to be good enough to continue copying the US model: for the USAF and USN, the Pacific is requiring a drive towards a different force design, way of operating, C2, and basing options from those that would work for NATO in Europe. Context matters.

Aquí, la tecnología, las risas y la crítica se mezclan para destapar si Apple está perdiendo su magia o solo está jugando al despiste.Lo primero que te enganchará: Apple vendió el iPhone 16 como el rey de la inteligencia artificial, pero ¿dónde está esa IA prometida? Gruber, una voz influyente en el universo Apple, acusa a la compañía de exagerar con promesas vacías, desde una Siri que entiende tu vida hasta funciones que aún no existen ni en demo.Entre bromas y reflexiones, el equipo analiza cómo Apple pasó de ser sinónimo de credibilidad a lanzar cortinas de humo con vídeos conceptuales que recuerdan los días oscuros pre-Jobs. ¿Es Tim Cook el culpable o solo un mago de las finanzas sin visión?Con un tono cálido y cercano, el podcast no se queda en la superficie: desmenuzan la decepción con Apple Intelligence (¡adiós, Siri vitaminada!), la estrategia de marketing fallida y hasta comparan el fiasco con el mítico AirPower. Pero no todo es crítica; hay espacio para la nostalgia, el humor (¿un pollito verde fosforito?) y un guiño a la competencia: ¿podría un móvil con Grok o una IA de OpenAI robarle el trono a Apple? Todo esto, aderezado con anécdotas del equipo y un cierre que te deja con ganas de más: ¿qué ofrecen Samsung, Google y los demás?Si buscas un resumen tech que no aburra, este episodio es oro puro. Escucha cómo El Garaje deCupertino convierte la polémica en una charla entre amigos que te hará reír, pensar y, sobre todo, querer darle al play para descubrir si Apple logrará redimirse o si algo sigue oliendo mal en Cupertino.Conviértete en un seguidor de este podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/el-garaje-de-cupertino--3153796/support.

Episode Summary: In this episode, Heather “Lucky” Penney discusses why the Air Force has a chronic pilot shortfall and solutions to solve it with Lt Gen Joseph Guastella, USAF (Ret) and Lt Gen Marc Sasseville, USAF (Ret). Bottom line: the Air Force's pilot corps is now too small to sustain a healthy combat force that can prevail in a peer conflict and meet the nation's other national security requirements. Air Force leaders recognize the shortfall and have worked hard to address it, but underlying and external factors persist. Effective joint force operations demand robust combat airpower. Pilot experience is critical to this effort. Join us to understand what's driving these challenges and what defense leaders and Congress need to do to fix it.

*** Apologies for delay in linking podcast, was on travel.*** The US Air Force is at a turning point in 21st century warfare and in danger of whistling past the graveyard if they fail to take notice and action on the emerging Revolutions in Military Affairs (RMA). The era of manned combat aircraft is coming to a close. The era of manned bombers with gravity bombs is over. The era of fixed site nuclear missiles is in great peril. The era of hyper-velocity missiles whether high parabola of IRBM/ICBM or Fractional Orbital Bombardment System (FOBS) glide vehicles. If the pilot mafia doesn't do something about what is coming, the result will be cataclysmic. The Pentagon will not to the right thing, regretfully.

Episode Summary: In this episode, Doug Birkey chats with Lt. Gen. David Deptula, USAF (Ret.); Maj. Gen. Larry Stutzriem, USAF (Ret.); Mark Gunzinger; and JV Venable about key considerations that President Trump's defense team, especially the Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of the Air Force, should be thinking about when it comes to airpower. It's clear that the Air Force needs to modernize faster so it can grow its combat capability and capacity. More cannot be done with less any longer. The Mitchell team also discusses the need to improve readiness. For many years, defense officials defended the mantra of divesting to invest in future capabilities. That approach, however, left the Air Force as the smallest, oldest, and least ready than at any other point in its history. This is a recipe for disaster. The Trump Administration and Congress must resource the Air Force sufficiently so it can reverse that decline and rebuild the service to meet its requirements laid out by the National Defense Strategy. Without adequate airpower, the nation risks losing future conflicts. We also explore core factors tied to Air Force identity and how service leaders can best articulate the value that airpower presents to the nation. There's a lot to discuss, and this is an episode you won't want to miss!
