SpaceForce got a good budget this year.

~~Unidentified object~~ MOST PEACEFUL CIVILIAN RESEARCH AIRSHIP OF HARMONY spotted over Shandong province, China


Clear-Description-38

https://i.imgur.com/XXV3tGP.png Clearly, there needs to be more bases around China. Glad we can all get so worked up over a weather balloon while being an imperial force. The irony of using an Imperial vessel for this meme is not lost on me.


theObfuscator

Countries would probably be less inclined to host US bases if China wasn’t trying to claim the entire South China Sea as its own territory. [China is currently engaged in border disputes with 17 different countries](https://www.theweek.co.uk/news/world-news/china/955728/all-countries-china-territory-disputes?)


Clear-Description-38

It's definitely their choice. Famously, the people who have the live near a US base love the US military.


theObfuscator

Just like people who live near China lol


HEAT-FS

The Navy obviously


Dependent_Factor_982

I mean it is a ship


pugfaced

I think it will be like how carriers are operated so yea navy. Marines might have some different configurations too for different mission sets.


Layaban

and just one fantasy, if i may, ODSTs.


SeaUnderstanding1578

Orbital Drop Storm Troopers


remotelove

Not really. Marines just ride along with the Navy in amphibs for the most part. The Marines have some landing craft and other smaller boats and that is about it.


HI_MINNIE_IM_NANNIE

Obviously it's Starfleet.

C2Midnight

I thought that's where I was.


JacobMT05

Is that a bad thing?


cragbabe

Just an observation


kldnsocal

Star Destroyers WILL BE operated by The Worlds Finest United States NAVY !!! It is a "Fleet" and it is commanded by Commanders, Captains and Admirals. Anchor Drop !!!


JacobMT05

Just don’t let marines near anything important


FatBoxers

We'll just give them crayons.


emu_strategist

Space crayons


blues_and_ribs

True. Depending what it is, we’ll either try to fuck it, drink it, or kill it. We’re like the Navy’s friend that he likes having around as either a wingman, or in a bar fight, and really nowhere else.


chuck_cranston

We got that covered. Whenever we need them out of the way, we just tell them there's gonna be ice cream in some empty part of the ship. They'll stand in line for days.


chaun2

They're stormtroopers. Can't aim for shit.


kldnsocal

Elite United States Marines will be gloriously welcomed aboard !!! We can't go flying through the galaxy without Our United States Marines !!!! ; )


Page_Eleven

They'll be lifting and calling everyone P.O.G.'s while everyone else will be wondering why the janitors are yelling at them.


Fox-Costeo

They would have bred the aliens without question, shak t' would have been mommy 't in a day


thetitleofmybook

a real opportunity was lost when they decided to keep Major/Colonel/General ranks in space force, instead of switching to Commander/Captain/Admiral ranks


psunavy03

Because the AF got butthurt at the idea.


CraftyFellow_

Yeah but the AF is institutionally butthurt at the other branches. That's why they try to steal shit like the Army's UAVs or fixed wing aviation.


blues_and_ribs

That, and it didn’t make any sense.


chuck_cranston

Do they at least have Warrants? If a whole branch is gonna skate they they at least should have missing WO's.


thetitleofmybook

USAF/USSF doesn't have warrants, to the best of my knowledge


jdubyahyp

It makes sense to make sub commanders the first space ship commanders. They are used to moving in 3D space.


NoEngrish

you may be surprised how unintuitive orbital mechanics are


Osiris32

Naval Academy about to start classes in Kerbal.


NOP-slide

M.I. DOES THE DYING! FLEET JUST DOES THE FLYING!

I.... I just... I just don't even know who you are anymore. : ( sad faced Navy Corpsman

Nice try old man, the Navy is a thing of the past 🚀 SEMPER SUPRA


kldnsocal

Moderately Aged Woman and Sailor here, Space Cadet. *: D* At ease, Cadet... I don't know, do you guys "do" attention and at ease ?? *: D*


NoEngrish

My mistake Ma'am, I've been at attention three times since the founding of our service: the day I transferred, a commander's call, and that one time the four star walked in.


Clear-Description-38

I'm rooting for the rebels.


kldnsocal

I find your lack of faith disturbing


Rentun

Sure, you’re the worlds finest United States Navy, but also, the worlds absolute worst United States Navy


GunzAndCamo

That would be the U.S. Space Force. Duh!


JacobMT05

Space forces purpose has finally been found


_V4NQU15H_

Shandunk on my nuts 🤯😎😎🇺🇲


Yoshigahn

It would have to be the Navy


fmfsaltyDOC8403

I second that, their the only ones with the know-how on operate big ships.


Yoshigahn

Space force can own some fighters, and can be the landing/boarding party


OneOfManyParadoxFans

Navy would operate them, Space Force would be manning the guns.


North_Introduction_6

Space Force Interplanetarian Strike Command (SFISC)


Philipp_CGN

I thought that's the only reason Space Force exists


Chanka69

I would almost say air force but it’s technically Navy in universe…


PolarIre

What about a light poke, unda da toooooeenail?


mrchooch

Great lack of self awareness portraying yourself as the empire


Warfighter416

Come on, is that even a question? Space Force. Apparently they're building a fleet to go fight xenomorphs and Klingons


Damnmorrisdancer

It’s pronounced “Klandathu”.


MoneyHungryMitch

Idk maybe the one that’s called Space Force.


thetitleofmybook

Space Force, duh.


Narrow-Tap116

Happy cake day


infodawg

Trumps Space Force By the way if you're old enough to remember Apollo rockets lifting off at the launch pad proudly emblazoned with 'Air Force' you'll realize what a stupid idea to space force is


Ifucanreadthis

The spaceforce is as much as a branch as the Marine Corps is... Everyone knows that the Marines belong to the Navy and the Spaceforce belongs to the Airforce.


xizrtilhh

What about the Space Marines?


ajisawwsome

What happens when we land on other planets that have ocean shores?


Crismus

We send the Army.


Low-Revolution-1835

The space force came from the air force, and the air force came from the army.

More ways for the US Govt to waste my hard earned tax dollars. Thanks, Donald!!!


infodawg

let's create a new agency so we can waste yet MORE tax payer money!! yay!!!!! They need to let it die a quiet death.


PM_ME_CAMILLE_ART

The space force was needed as space becomes a war fighting domain and also helps with the acquisition side of the house.


infodawg

wut???? we can't fight wars in space unless we have a new burocracia that copies what the air force did for 50 years already? Please gimme a break.


Boris-the-soviet-spy

Space force


Szaborovich9

I think it comes under the intergalactic supreme commander


thattogoguy

Space Force, except all the guns are pneumatic potato cannons. They look really cool though. Also, what's with the really weird sized roundel?


nicbizz33

Oh, it’s beautiful.


CupAhNoodles

What the hell is that , is this real


infamous-fate

:l if this was real life id beat you like the red-headed step child for talking like that


TooEZ_OL56

Somehow, they’ll embark B-52’s as part of their air wing.


Rerel

It’s a weather station, nothing to worry about.


omegadirectory

It's not the Death Star. It's called the Friend Ship.


warsawm249

This is America


Rababaja

May the Space Force be with you


Creative-Ocelot8691

Not that I don’t trust you op, but gonna need a source, but then again I’m part of the rebel scum


IssueInteresting1203

Tis nothing to be worried about


scuzzymcgee

Ok_Effective_2536

What’s a wather balloon?


Spartan_7670

That's delta 9 space force


LEGEND-IWNL-

It's gotta be the Space Force


vgaph

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Commissioned Officer Corps (NOAA CC) It’s a weather balloon you see.

Space force reveals it's true purpose. I heard they're building a moon.
