With booming drives that regularly left Mr Woods's and Mr Molinari's balls 30 yards in the rearview mirror; pinpoint approach shots that honed in on flagsticks like laser-guided missiles; and putts whose lines never seemed to waver; Mr Koepka seemed to be playing a different game from his rivals.

The maturation and efficacy of active protection systems also bears prominently upon this calculus; the Army is now accelerating development of a handful of APS systems to better enable tanks and other armored vehicles to detect, track, intercept and destroy incoming enemy RPGs, tank rounds and anti-tank guided missiles.

Seeking a silver lining, some rebels express hope that American allies like Saudi Arabia and Turkey would then go it alone and defy United States orders not to provide more sophisticated weapons to rebels — though in the short term, such a cutoff could mean losing supplies of American antitank guided missiles.

Rare earth metals are so critical and in so many defense components for guided missiles, smart bombs, targeting lasers, sonar, radar, night vision and high temperature resistant metals for military jet engines, that if China cut us off, the U.S. could not replace or build most of our advanced weapon systems.

Among the other weapons on Seoul's shopping list are new missile defence systems; three more destroyers equipped with the cutting-edge Aegis radar system; spy satellites and high-altitude reconnaissance drones; anti-submarine helicopters; maritime patrol aircraft; submarines capable of firing cruise and ballistic missiles; and a warship armed with guided missiles.

The Samer episode was one of four interdictions of Iranian dhows from September 2015 through March 2016 that yielded, in total, more than 80 antitank guided missiles and 5,000 Kalashnikov rifles as well as sniper rifles, machine guns and almost 300 RPG launchers, according to data provided by the United States Navy.

The group had devised a three-pronged strategy to invade and conquer (even if briefly) at least a part of Israel's northern Galilee: building factories in Lebanon that could produce precision-guided missiles, excavating attack tunnels under the Israeli border and setting up a second front on the Syrian side of the Golan Heights.

The militants had punched holes through the walls into nearby houses, allowing the sniper to run back and forth safely as Kurdish forces used an array of weapons — from wire-guided missiles to artillery — to try to eliminate their enemy, and U.S. special forces pounded the house with the computer-guided machine guns on their armored MRAP vehicles.

It simply became easier to believe in ridiculous things with him in the lineup, both because of the ridiculous things he routinely did, those vicious laser-guided missiles he launched, homers that left LED scoreboards gap-toothed and onlookers gape-mouthed, and because of how bizarrely reasonable that all looked when it was Yoenis Cespedes doing it.

Israeli defense officials let it be known that if the Iranians strike back, Israel may use the opportunity to mount a massive counterstrike on Iran's entire military infrastructure in Syria, where Iran is attempting to establish forward air bases and factories for GPS-guided missiles that could hit targets inside Israel with much greater accuracy — inside a 50-meter radius.

Netanyahu has recently been flexing Israeli muscle around the Middle East — launching hundreds of raids into Syria against Iranian and Hezbollah arms stores and troop concentrations, and undertaking an even bolder operation in July against a base in eastern Iraq that, Israeli intelligence believed, was being used to store long-range guided missiles en route to Iranian forces in Syria.

The adversaries the United States could easily "fight tonight," a term used in the report about current challenges, already have capabilities that in some cases outmatch those in the Army: antitank guided missiles that can defeat U.S. tanks; integrated air defenses and man-portable air defenses that put U.S. helicopters at risk; long-range rockets that U.S. forces cannot find or counter; unmanned aerial systems the United States cannot shoot down; and cyber capabilities that could cripple U.S. command and control.
