      How would you know if they aren’t telling you? Idk about you, but I’m not getting any reports about drills and tests from my representative. Maybe military contractors are getting that for the specific equipment they’re selling so they can improve on issues, but I don’t expect that that info is publicly available. After all, mishaps might hurt stock valuation 🙃

        Everytime a plane skids off the runway you hear about it in the news, sorry your congressman didn’t personally send you a letter about it.

          That’s not the same as a submarine testing a missile launch, dude. A plane missing a runway is something that people nearby will see. I’m talking about stuff that would require clearance to even know that they’re testing it in the first place lol.

      Not really, that was one of the points of the Snowden leaks.
