27:13Now PlayingPeaches is back with the Daily Drop for 28 July, covering Army vehicle prototypes, command and control testing, Navy vaccine and transfer policy updates, Marine drone experiments, Coast Guard counter-UUV efforts, testosterone screenings, Iran operations, and some very questionable budget math.
The Army is moving forward with Infantry Squad Vehicle Heavy prototypes while Project Convergence prepares to stress-test next-generation command and control gear in the Mojave Desert. The Navy reinstated flu vaccine requirements for certain sailors and changed transfer policy after a sailor’s death, while the USS George Washington strike group is operating in the South China Sea.
The Marine Corps is experimenting with medium-sized drones that can launch one-way attack drones, and Marines also tested drone delivery of simulated refrigerated blood during an Australia exercise. Peaches ties that into real-world medical drone delivery and what it could mean for dispersed battlefield sustainment.
The Air Force clarified again that waist-to-height ratio measurements will not be scored during the initial rollout, while B-52 modernization remains on cost and schedule after a test aircraft crash. The Coast Guard is looking for technology to detect and defeat unmanned underwater vehicles, because drone swarms are not just an air problem anymore.
The episode also covers Pete Hegseth’s testosterone screening initiative for service members over 30, the Pentagon’s $7 billion Oracle contract, Trump’s warning on Iran talks, reclassified Iran war fatalities, one-way surface drones used against Iranian ports, ongoing boat strikes against alleged drug vessels, and Zelensky warning that North Korea may send 30,000 more troops to support Russia.
