US Space Force

[smityx]

So the new space force logo got release here it is:



Woops sorry here's the actual one:



Is this thing supposed to be taken serious or just some fantasy of a deranged tangerine.

[Bryntrollian]

In the future? I'm sure it will gain some sort of significance.

[Scandwithar]

BwahhahaahahahaahahAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAH.

stupid fucking yanks.

[PC2]

Very good. If we can kickass on Earth then we ought to kickass in space as well. We're barely even at the beginning.

Pretty sure France had a Space Force before the US.

if hes called you a yank then hes clearly a Brit, if thats the case i am not sure what defense you expect to gain by invoking France's originality to the idea, France don't exactly have a great reputation for well thought out ideas in the UK, especially military ones.

Well, France has it's "Space Force" rolled in with the Air Force...which is exactly how America was handling it before the Tangerine got it into his head that their needed to be a separate Space Force.

Also, is "France did it first" really the best defense?

[Egomaniac]

Because so many people seem to think the “Space Force” was some moronic idea made up by Trump and Americans. It wasn’t.

Well, it seems that France didn't get the idea of doing it until after Trump started talking about it:

Months after President Donald Trump announced the creation of the U.S. Space Force, France is beginning to lay the groundwork for its own version.

French President Emmanuel Macron announced last month that the nation's air force will establish a space command for the purpose of national defense, particularly to protect French satellites.

But even if it was France's bad idea...copying a bad idea isn't a very good defense.

It's like getting caught cheating on a test...and the kid you are copying off of has all the wrong answers anyway.

[Crissi]

That's basically the "You can look at my homework but don't copy my answer" of logos. hahaha

[cubby]

Fantastically ridiculous, just like it's sponsor. It's fine though, so long as he's out in at the end of this year, he can play with his legos all he wants.

Lol! Perfect summary.

Only morons, copy morons.

[Egomaniac]

It was Russia that had it first - since 1992.

I don’t think it’s a bad idea, tbh.

United States Space Command was first established in 1985

I like it. Also I had to Google it since your image doesn’t load for me. Here it is again.

I can see it getting slightly modified in the future though, because it doesn’t have any image on it that signifies Nationalism like the U.S. Flag or Bald Eagle.

[PACOX]

What a joke.

[Elegiac]

This looks like something a Boomer made in MS Word using clip art, lol.

The giant mouse cursor symbolises America's technological superiority with Chinese computers, while the "Department of the Air Force" text at the bottom is supposed to represent the fact that space is above the air. Genius.

[Logwyn]

If you are going to start sending up people to the Moon and Mars and establishing permanent bases you will need to defend them somehow. Why would the creation of a branch that deals with space be such a stretch?

Can we do it without the ridiculousness of such things like jungle camo for a space force, or the store brand Starfleet logo, though?

Of course! But then again its old guys that design the stuff. Have you seen the USA men's national teams soccer/football uniforms?!?!

Makes sense, they can flee in any direction in space.
