Russian scientists agreed on the need to postpone the creation of a super-heavy lunar rocket "Yenisei". Earlier, President Vladimir Putin criticized the leadership of Roscosmos for delaying it.

Iran has commissioned the largest warship in its history, the Makran helicopter carrier. Manned rotorcraft and drones can be based on its board.

The Center for Quantum Technologies of Moscow State University has launched a secure quantum telephony line that will connect 20 subscriber points on the campus of Moscow State University on the Leninsky Mountains. The nodes of the network will be the Faculty of Physics, the Main Building and the Center for Quantum Technologies itself. The maximum distance between the objects will be 50 kilometers. This is reported by "Vesti".

Russian defense engineers have developed the strongest supermolecular polyethylene, which is planned to be used for the production of bulletproof bulletproof vests. Plates made of such material are able to stop a fragment flying at a speed of up to 670 meters per second, and also withstand the hit of automatic bullets.

New classes of underwater drones and robots are appearing in the world

The beginning of the XXI century was marked by a qualitative leap in the development of the military-technical sphere and methods of conducting armed conflicts. The analysis shows that in military affairs there was in fact another revolution, one of the features of which was the active use of unmanned vehicles for various purposes by the warring parties.

The Russian "flying gunboat" will receive guided bombs and missiles. The Ministry of Defense has adjusted the requirements for a special purpose strike vehicle being developed on the basis of a military transport aircraft. This air transport is used for direct support of troops on the battlefield. With artillery fire and ammunition strikes, it will destroy enemy infantry, fortifications and armored vehicles day and night in all weather conditions.

The Chinese ground forces, which are on the line of confrontation in the Ladakh Valley, have prepared a very unpleasant surprise for the Indian T-72M1 and T-90S. We are talking about the AFT-10 long-range anti-tank complex (export designation HJ-10).

The Arctic patrol ship of the project 23550 "Ermak", under construction at the Vyborg Shipyard in the Leningrad region, will be equipped with a control system with the navigation complex" Bering", which will make it partially unmanned, the company"Kronstadt Technologies" reported on Tuesday.

At the end of December, the RD-191 liquid-propellant rocket engine for the Angara launch vehicle was also successfully tested

NPO Energomash (part of Roscosmos) has successfully tested the RD-180 and RD-191 rocket engines designed for the American Atlas launch vehicles and the Russian Angara rockets, respectively. This was reported on Tuesday in the press service of Roscosmos.

The concept of high-entropy alloys provides a platform for the discovery of new superconductors. eurekalert.org.

Scientists, engineers and other specialists from several leading Chinese scientific institutions, led by scientists from the Chinese University of Science and Technology in Hefei, have completed the deployment of the world's first and largest integrated quantum communication network, which now combines about 700 fiber-based channels and several satellite channels.

The promising Chinese strike unmanned aerial vehicle WJ-700, equipped with a turbojet engine, made its first flight. According to Flightglobal, the first flight of the device, first presented in 2018, was successful.

American operational-tactical missile complexes will master the hypersound. January 10, portal armyrecognition.com He announced that the US Department of Defense has signed a new contract with Lockheed Martin for the development of hypersonic tactical ground-based missiles.

The works, according to the head of Roscosmos Dmitry Rogozin, will become an element of the third stage of construction at the cosmodrome

The construction of the launch pad for the Amur-LNG launch vehicle will be an element of the third stage of construction of the Vostochny cosmodrome. This was announced on Monday by the Director General of Roscosmos Dmitry Rogozin on his Facebook page.

Media: China is ready to abandon Russian aircraft engines]

China refuses to use Russian AL-31F engines on J-20 stealth fighters, preferring its own developments, the media write. Beijing really intends to go for "import substitution" in the creation of fighters, but so far this is technically impossible, experts say. However, the solution to this problem is only a matter of time.

Researchers from the National University of Yokohama, Japan, have completed the development and conducted the first tests of an experimental microprocessor built on the basis of superconducting base elents. This microprocessor is 80 times more efficient in terms of energy consumption than current computing devices made using CMOS technology. This is a huge prospect, given that 10 percent of the amount of electricity generated around the globe is consumed by computers.

Competition in the space launch market is getting tougher every year, which pushes developers to various unusual solutions. So, a small private firm SpinLaunch can test its revolutionary method of launching satellites using a centrifuge.

The Russian Space Systems Holding (RKS, part of the State Corporation ROSCOSMOS) has completed work on improving the multi-zone scanning devices of the advanced hydrometeorological satellites of the Electro-L, Arktika-M, Meteor-M and Canopus series as part of the development of on-board systems of the Earth remote sensing (ERS) spacecraft.

A team of scientists from Finland, Russia, China and the United States has demonstrated that changing the temperature difference in a graphene system can be used to generate entangled electron pairs in superconducting structures. The work is presented in the journal Nature Communications.

After that, several more bodies were made to work out the technological process and comply with quality standards. Production of Auruses in Yelabuga will take place on a full cycle: here also prepare stamping production, assembly of engines and, of course, painting of bodies.
