News of new developments in the military-industrial complex
HB11 Energy was the first to master laser nuclear fusion
A demonstration of a prototype of a nuclear fusion plant from the Australian company HB11 Energy took place at the Institute of Laser Engineering at Osaka University. Its founders have developed their own technology, which is fundamentally different from a tokamak in that it does not create extremely high temperatures. Therefore, the reactor design itself is much simpler and cheaper, and its fundamental operability has been confirmed by scientists from different countries.

The argument is faster than sound
Russia is ready to massively use missiles that have no analogues
Mass use of high-precision weapons is becoming one of the main trends of the Russian Armed Forces. Its use began from the first minutes of the special operation in Ukraine. And if at first these were infrastructure facilities, now we are talking about well-protected ammunition depots and area targets.
Hypersonic aviation missile system "Dagger"
In Soviet times, being a place of storage of nuclear ammunition, "Object 711" was cut down in rocks at a depth of several tens of meters.
Radiation-resistant microchips for robotics and space have been created in Russia
Monolithic integrated circuits (MIS) based on gallium nitride, capable of operating in extreme conditions, have been developed and manufactured at the V.G. Mokerov Institute of Ultrahigh Frequency Semiconductor Electronics of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
The test of the intercontinental ballistic missile "Hwasong-17" in the DPRK
Under the personal leadership of the Secretary General of the CPC, the Chairman of the State Affairs of the DPRK, the Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces of the DPRK, dear Comrade Kim Jong-un, on March 24, 111, Juche (2022), a test launch of a new type of intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) "Hwasongpo-17" of the strategic forces of the DPRK was conducted.
"Dagger" attack: ultra-fast arguments of the Russian army
Dmitry Litovkin - what is known about hypersonic missiles of the Russian Federation
High speed, maneuverability and low radar visibility technologies make the Russian hypersonic missile "Zircon" one of the most effective combat systems on the planet.
The first frigate of the new generation of the Mogami type entered the Japanese fleet
On March 22, 2022, the new-generation FFM 2 Kumano frigate (ままの), built at the shipbuilding enterprise of the Japanese company Mitsui E&S Shipbuilding Co., Ltd (the shipbuilding division of the Mitsui Group) in Tamano in Okayama Prefecture (in October 2021, Mitsui E&S Shipbuilding was sold to Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd.).
"Checkmate will be able to deceive missiles in the infrared range"
Air Force General Popov told how the Su-75 fighter will be arranged
The newest Russian Su-75 Checkmate fighter can be equipped with an engine with an all-angle rotary jet nozzle, according to the text of the patent published by the Federal Service for Intellectual Property. "Newspaper.Ru" figured out how such a nozzle increases the combat capabilities of the aircraft.
Evolution of the Chinese umbrella
Chinese air defense has surpassed American and is catching up with Russian
All PLA military equipment is built on the Soviet foundation. At the beginning of its existence, China received a huge amount of Soviet weapons of all classes. And she quickly moved on to its own production - first under Soviet licenses, and then without them.
"We have a direct instruction from President Putin - we need a land version of the Caliber
Military expert Stefanovich explained why the "Calibers" will not replace the "Iskanders"
The Ministry of Defense showed the sea launch of Kalibr missiles at military facilities of Ukraine. The footage from the ship shows how the missiles are fired from the launcher and go into the sky. "Newspaper.Ru" was looking into whether Kalibr could become a universal missile for the Russian army.
Americans doubted the Russian "Daggers"
The Washington Post (USA): what you need to know about hypersonic missiles, which, according to Biden, Russia used against Ukraine
"Daggers— - elusive hypersonic missiles that Russia first used on the battlefield, writes WP. The author of the article describes what this weapon is and notes that its danger is underestimated in the West. But the readers of the American newspaper have a different opinion.
Hypersonic missile weapons were used for the first time in combat conditions
A large underground warehouse of missiles and aviation ammunition of Ukrainian troops in the village of Delyatin, Ivano-Frankivsk region, was attacked.
The hypersonic "Dagger" hit not only a specific target, but most likely also (morally) the NATO command. The fact is that conventional ammunition destroyed not just a warehouse, but one of the central storage bases for nuclear weapons, known as "Object 711". It was built in 1955 and strengthened so that in those years it could withstand the impact of an atomic bomb.
Engineers have calculated the maximum flight altitude of drones with a power cable
American engineers have calculated the maximum flight altitude of a quadcopter powered by a cable of different thickness, above which the mass of the cable and the current loss in it do not allow the drone to maintain its flight. They also tested a bundle of two drones powered by a wire, expanding the possibilities compared to using a single device. The article will be presented at the IROS 2022 conference, its preprint is available at arXiv.org .
Unusual premieres
The most modern equipment is being supplied to the engineering troops
They do not make exciting TV series about them, they do not become heroes of military adventure novels, boys do not dream of serving in these troops. We are talking about one of the types of special troops of the Russian Federation - engineering troops, which people who are far from army realities consider something paramilitary.
Drones for tomorrow
Promising samples of weapons show that, technically, the Russian army is at the forefront
While once fraternal countries, to the detriment of their own interests, reviling everything that reminds of a great neighbor, admire Turkish "Bayraktars", Russian engineering thought is constantly progressing, and the domestic military-industrial complex does not cease to delight with novelties in the field of weapons, military and special equipment.
"There's not a lot of practicality in that." The US does not understand the meaning of using the "Dagger" in Ukraine
The Pentagon stated that there is no sense in the use of hypersonic weapons by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in Ukraine
The Pentagon does not understand why Russia used hypersonic weapons during a special operation in Ukraine, a senior military official said.
The import-substituted version of the Russian MC-21 aircraft will enter mass production from 2024
Denis Manturov, the head of the Ministry of Industry and Trade, told what plans the Russian aircraft industry has in the face of Western sanctions due to the situation in Ukraine.
Tunnel contact helped to study the electronic structure of carbon nanotubes
Russian physicists have shown that it is possible to use tunnel contact for spectroscopy of the electronic states of carbon nanotubes. The proposed tunneling contact manufacturing technology and spectroscopy method will help to accurately determine the band gap of nanotubes, which is a key characteristic for the development of any electronic devices based on them.
"Dagger" is a complex sausage. You can dock anything to it"
Military experts told why Russia used the Dagger hypersonic complex in Ukraine
For the first time, the Russian Army used hypersonic missiles of the Dagger aviation missile system to destroy objects of the Armed Forces of Ukraine during a special military operation. "Newspaper.Ru" figured out for what purpose it was done.
