Tests of the missile attack warning system in the Russian Federation have been completed

The Russian military and designers have finished testing the missile attack warning system. This system is designed to obtain data on enemy missile launches. In addition, the SRPN allows you to determine where the missiles were launched from and collects information about objects in space.

The holding company "Roselektronika" of the State Corporation Rostec with the support of the Industrial Development Fund (FRF, under the management of VEB.Russia) will launch in 2022 the serial production of digital noise-protected stations of tropospheric communication for civil purposes "Groza".

Two experimental zones should appear in May

Russia will start testing joint flights of planes and drones. In Tomsk and in the Tver Region, two experimental territories should appear in May, where different types of aircraft will be able to move. They will be bred in the space of a special system.

Russian and Cuban scientists are considering the possibility of restoring the Havana Radio Astronomy Station. This is reported by RIA Novosti.

American and British engineers have created a nozzle for laser cutters that allows them to create drones — the cutter cuts out the body, and the nozzle moves components onto it, applies contact tracks and sinters them. After that, the drone can take off directly from the cutter and get to work. The paper will be presented at the CHI 2021 conference.
