The Plastics Plant is one of the country's leading manufacturers of modern industrial explosives. In particular, the company extracts explosives from decommissioned ammunition, and as a result of such disposal, they have learned to obtain a unique product – nanodiamond charge. Demand for it is growing all over the world, because nanodiamonds are widely used in various fields: from quantum electronics to medicine.

The Bitblaze Titan laptop of the Russian company Promobit on the Baikal-M CPU appeared in a "live" photo in a new thinner case. The exterior is made of aluminum and provides for the possibility of customization, for example, the choice of color of the touchpad. To Western experts, the laptop looks like an Apple MacBook Pro. Production of the Bitblaze Titan will begin at the end of 2022.

The Soyuz-2.1b launch vehicle launched yesterday delivered a number of satellites to the calculated orbit, including CUBESX-HSE-2 vehicles, as well as SXC3-214 MIET-AIS, which received engines based on the plasma of the new VERA development and created in Russia by MEPhI engineers.

NATO relies on artificial intelligence

At the meeting of the heads of State and Government of NATO countries in Madrid on June 29, 2022, a new strategic concept (SC-22) was approved, which sets out the priorities, tasks and approaches of the bloc for the next decade.

Armorer Lobaev urges to rely on private initiative

The trademark of the weapon "Lobaev Arms", under which the Integrated Systems Design Bureau LLC produces its products, does not need to be introduced to anyone who is fond of sports shooting, hunting, or works in the security units of the special services.

Japan and the United States are planning to open a new research center that will develop next-generation 2-nanometer chips. It will be created by the Institute for Chip Research in cooperation with the University of Tokyo and the Institute of Natural Sciences (Riken). Technical support will be provided by the National Center for Semiconductor Technologies of the USA. Specialists will also be from there.

The Keldysh Center, located in the Moscow Likhobors, has been engaged in space engines since its foundation. Now work is underway here on one of the most promising projects of Russian cosmonautics – a nuclear tug for interplanetary flights "Zeus".

Over decades of space exploration, scientists have found out that only in zero gravity it is possible to create some "unearthly" materials. This is what the ForgeStar platform produced by the Welsh startup Space Forge will do.

Where is the militarization of space going

An analysis of the available indirect and direct signs of preparations for an arms race in outer space suggests that there is less and less time and opportunities for proactive diplomatic steps on the PARAC. Let's analyze this situation using the example of US military space preparations both at the political and doctrinal level and in the military-technical sphere.

On Friday, the Kostroma Military Academy of Radiation, Chemical and Biological Protection named after Marshal of the Soviet Union S. K. Timoshenko held solemn events dedicated to the 90th anniversary of its formation.

Scientists of the MIPT Applied Nanotechnology Laboratory have developed and tested a new digital receiver board based mainly on Russian components. It will provide communications for small spacecraft. Boeing, Airbus and Thales have similar solutions, but the domestic version differs in that it implements the functions of the whole device in a single chip.

The Warrior combat equipment has managed to become legendary in 10 years

The military equipment of the soldier "Ratnik" has been serving for 10 years to increase the combat effectiveness, prestige and protection of servicemen of the Russian Army. It has long been appreciated. Both the command and the ordinary servicemen defending the interests of our country love and are proud of her.

In Russia, the long-planned construction of a factory has started, which will produce microprocessors using 28 nm technology. Production is planned to be established in Zelenograd. Whether it will be possible to complete the project against the background of sanctions is an open question.

Russian scientists from Tomsk Polytechnic University (TPU) have developed the first Russian-made 3D printer for printing in space in microgravity. This is reported by "Gazeta.<url>" with reference to the press service of the university.

Residents of the Technopolis Moscow special economic zone and scientists of the National Research University "MIET" are conducting research to create an installation that will allow printing chips with a size of 28 nanometers and below, which are in demand in modern microelectronics.

The Obukhov plant, as part of the diversification of production and an increase in the share of civilian products, begins production of a "Sand 3D printer" and an atomizer, the press service of the Almaz-Antey Concern of East Kazakhstan Region, which the company is part of, reports.

Micron intends to double the volume of silicon wafers produced in the coming years in order to overcome the shortage of domestic semiconductors in Russia. For this, the plant will need 10 billion rubles. "Micron" intends to purchase used production equipment, which in recent years has become a standard global practice in this industry.

The special operation emphasized the role of precision weapons

The United States and Britain have today retargeted their commercial satellite systems Starlink and OneWeb to collect intelligence information in the interests of the armed formations of Ukraine. A plan is being hatched to disconnect Russia from the GPS system. How can all this, coupled with the ban on the import of software (software), affect the performance of combat missions by our troops in the combat zone, the production of high-precision weapons by the defense industry?

For the first time, Russian scientists have synthesized a super-rigid material based on carbon nanostructures with scandium. The resulting material consisted of interconnected fullerene molecules with scandium and carbon atoms inside.

In Russia, the Storm 3450E3R rack server appeared under the Depo brand. This is the most localized server, since it is assembled in Russia and is based on the Depo development board, on which the Elbrus-8SV CPU of the domestic MCST is located. All hardware is controlled by the Russian OS "Alt Server" 10 of the company "Basalt SPO".
