Ops Brief 082: Daily Drop - 29 July 2025 - Missile Stockpile’s Low

In today’s daily drop, Peaches blasts through the latest ops headlines like a Hellfire through a Toyota Hilux. From exposing our hilariously thin missile reserves to roasting tech bros whose drones crumble outside PowerPoint presentations, this one’s a full-body workout in situational awareness. AFRICOM’s been busy lighting up Somalia, the National Guard’s turning Northern Michigan into a drone graveyard, and Space Force is slinging lasers and quantum gadgets into orbit like it's Star Wars cosplay. Meanwhile, Air Force Global Strike Command promises a “seamless” transition—LOL—and another Humvee goes full NASCAR in Wyoming. Also, Tricare might finally stop fleecing military families for having adult kids. That’s not just news, that’s a miracle. Buckle up, team. This episode’s got more truth than a cleared EPR.

🔥 Key Takeaways:

AFRICOM has dropped over 50 airstrikes in Somalia. Boom.
DIU wants Ukrainian warzone chaos to test your overpriced drones.
Israel’s 12-day war drained 25% of our missiles—great planning, folks.
National Guard drills counter-UAS tech with help from nerds and startups.
Air Force says B-21 and Sentinel rollout will be "seamless" (sure, Jan).
GPS jamming now hits low Earth orbit. Good luck syncing your watch.
Humvee crash recap: speeding + no seatbelt = Darwin Award candidate.
Space Force’s X-37B is hauling quantum sensors like it's sci-fi now.
Tricare might stop charging for kids under 26. Wait… something good?
