In this episode, we get into what’s driving the Indo-Pacific’s security dynamics, from China’s threats to Taiwan to AUKUS and the Quad to stability (or lack thereof) on the Korean Peninsula to bases in the Philippines. We also touch on how prepared the United States may be to deliver military power in the Indo-Pacific based on forthcoming resourcing decisions by the Trump administration and Congress. Get ready for a smart, insightful conversation you won’t want to miss with Lisa Curtis (CNAS), Zack Cooper (AEI), and Dmitri Alperovitch (Silverado).

In scenes that resembled the worst moments of Syria’s civil war, hundreds of Alawite civilians were killed, probably by a combination of pro-government forces and extra-judicial Sunni death squads.

Four additional B-2A Spirit stealth bombers were deployed to Diego Garcia Air Force Base, bringing the total number of these bombers at the base to seven.
This increase is significant, as it constitutes a third of the US Air Force’s B-2 fleet, which is normally based at Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri, reports Abu Saleh.
This reinforcement follows the previous deployment of three B-2 aircraft to Diego Garcia on March 24, 2025, and coincides with US military operations against Houthi rebels in Yemen.

The Defense Information Systems Agency is preparing to introduce a new platform in one of its overseas cloud environments that will allow users to test a generative artificial intelligence tool on classified networks, according to a defense official.
Pending accreditation, the chatbot will be deployed to U.S. Indo-Pacific Command and allow users to experiment with genAI models on the Secure Internet Protocol Router (SIPRNet), Jeff Marshall, acting director of DISA’s Hosting and Compute Center, said during a webinar broadcast Tuesday by Federal News Network.
