During the process of 96 years of accompanying the nation (June 21, 1925 – June 21, 2021), under the leadership of the Party, the Vietnamese Revolutionary Press has always been the core force, playing an important role in the world. ideological and cultural front, making great contributions to the revolutionary cause of the Party, construction and defense of the Fatherland. The press is the most frequent and continuous means of information affecting the public; participating in solving economic – cultural – social issues through current events and issues, selecting event information, thereby influencing public perception according to the ideological orientations that have been established. plan. At the same time, information is the fastest, most popular, actively and honestly reflecting all aspects of social life, domestically and internationally. The press is the People’s forum, regularly interacting with the People, answering new problems posed by life, contributing to strengthening the close relationship with the People, serving the entertainment needs, improving the quality of life. spiritual life of the people. The press is really a sharp and effective weapon in all aspects of political and social life. At the same time, it is undeniable that the great role of the press is to enhance culture and entertainment, to make people understand and draw closer together. People here are not between people in one country, but also between different countries. In order for both sides to learn, study and share spiritual teachers and emotions, and at the same time enrich and absorb the diverse cultures of other ethnic groups to enrich their country; promote and introduce the country, culture and people of Vietnam to friends in five continents so that countries around the world can better understand Vietnam. During his lifetime, President Ho Chi Minh pointed out: “Our press must serve the working people, serve socialism, serve the struggle for national reunification, and for world peace. gender”. Therefore, different types of newspapers such as print press, electronic newspaper, radio and television, in each type need to perform the function of igniting and orienting public opinion properly, motivating all levels and sectors. and the masses to effectively implement patriotic emulation movements. Actively fight against negative expressions and behaviors, violating the law. Thereby preventing the phenomenon of degradation in morality, lifestyle among cadres and party members and the negative in social life that hinders the development of the renovation process and the formation and improvement of a positive lifestyle. in social life. Each journalistic work needs to bring the breath of life, so with their responsibility, the team of journalists becomes an important “bridge” to convey the Party’s guidelines and policies. , the State’s laws come into practice in close proximity to people and ethnic minorities; reflect the good and creative ways of individuals and collectives with advanced examples in productive labor and effective economic models. Actively exploiting, propagating and reflecting the leadership’s direction and administration in socio-economic development, contributing to raising people’s confidence in the leadership of the Party and State. The press in our country has made rapid and strong development steps and has made great strides in appearance, quantity and quality of publications, radio and television programs and journalism technology…. The political quality, cultural quality, orientation and technical – professional quality of the press have been increasingly improved. The number of journalists has increased rapidly, their professional qualifications for journalism have been improved, and they have mastered modern journalism technology. Promoting the achieved tradition, the press needs to promptly reflect developments in all aspects of social life; actively propagate Marxism-Leninism, Ho Chi Minh’s thought, the Party’s viewpoints and lines, and the State’s policies and laws; reflect the thoughts and legitimate aspirations of the people of all classes; discovering and promoting new factors, advanced examples and achievements of the renovation work; reflect the enthusiastic contributions of scientists and fellow citizens; participate in supervision, social criticism, promote the people’s right to mastery, strengthen the great national unity bloc; on the front to protect the ideological foundation of the Party. In the current period, in order to constantly promote its role as a bridge between the State Party and the People, our country’s press needs to strengthen two-way information on major policies of the Party and the State in a comprehensive manner. enough. In the process of two-way information, the press should show real demand, not because it focuses too much on orientation, but narrows down the diversity and practicality, especially in cases where, although there are some science and practicality. Timely reflect people’s opinions on social issues quickly and fully, contributing to strengthening people’s belief in good things, creating a spread, and persuading people to have more and more people. The more positive from awareness to action, negative things will have the effect of warning, reminding to deter, self-improvement. Increase the interaction between the press and readers so that the two sides become closer to each other, thereby both orienting the readers’ perception, aesthetics, interests, etc., thereby capturing the needs and aspirations. readers in particular and the public in general on social issues. As the “voice of the people”, the press needs to listen to and acknowledge the people’s opinions, as much as possible, as objectively and honestly as possible. At that time, the reflection of the new press is more convincing and attractive.

While the US AH-64 has performed excellently both in combat and in the export market, the Russian Mi-28 has only Iraqi and Algerian customers. The idea that Mi-28 will be chosen by India, however, in the end New Delhi chose the US AH-64. Mi-28 is also a line of attack helicopters with a long development time when the first flight appeared in 1982, but it was not until 2009 that the version capable of day and night combat entered service. After having an unimpressive first field trip in the Syrian battlefield, Russia has continued to upgrade to produce the Mi-28NM version. Currently in Russia’s official payroll, there is a Mi-28A version that is only capable of daytime combat, this version is not appreciated; Mi-28N is a version capable of fighting in all weather conditions including night and the upgraded version of Mi-28NM has only been commissioned in small numbers. To be fair, the Mi-28 is a line of heavy attack helicopters capable of delivering devastating blows to the enemy. However, the Mi-28 did not live up to expectations when it was designed to replace the Mi-24s. In the Syrian battlefield, the Mi-28N did not even prove superior to the Mi-24. This made many Russian generals criticize the developer. Perhaps that is why the manufacturer Mil bet on the Mi-28NM version. Compared to its predecessor, although there are not many major changes in appearance except for the nose, the changes brought from the inside have helped this aircraft achieve high combat performance. Weapons analysts said that with the introduction of the Mi-28NM version, the attack helicopter line was enough to line up with the latest US version of the AH-64E. There have been reports that the Mi-28NM was secretly brought to Syria to test fire by Russia to evaluate its combat performance and obtain positive results. It was from this real combat test that Russia quickly decided to put the Mi-28NM into mass production. In terms of structure, the cockpit of the Mi-28NM is reinforced more firmly, with an air-conditioning system, with additional protective armor, including a metal front windshield that is resistant to 12 bullets, 7 mm. The cabin has an additional layer of glass that separates the compartment between the two pilots, minimizing the possibility of the main pilot and the pilot pilot dying at the same time from enemy fire. The alloy frame of the Mi-28NM is able to withstand 20mm anti-aircraft shells. With the design applied on Mi-28NM, for the first time the principle of separating the cockpit between the main pilot and the pilot pilot has been applied. In the event of an emergency when the plane is above 100 m above the ground, the crew can parachute out when the plane crashes and crashes. The emergency exit system will be activated by the main pilot and the pilot pilot separately. According to Mr. Dmitry Litovkin, CEO of Independent Military Review, Mi-28NM is an attack helicopter version with enhanced tactical features, especially combat power. The helicopter is equipped with high-precision weapons, has a new control system integrated with artificial intelligence (AI). Mi-28NM is compatible, join the battle formation with helicopters, UAVs and other aircraft on the battlefield. In terms of firepower, the Mi-28NM heavy attack helicopter is equipped with a variety of powerful weapons systems, including new-generation multipurpose missiles and various bombs. The helicopter can attack stationary and moving targets within a radius of 8-10 km. Mi-28NM has a new LSN-296 aiming system, which can control two of Russia’s most powerful anti-tank missiles today, Khrizantema and Vikhr. The pilot of the Mi-28NM is equipped with a flying helmet with a specially designed target indicator system, displaying panoramic information to aim at targets in all directions. Mi-28NM is equipped with Nadterechny Н025 radar as well as a new generation of aiming and guidance complexes, including a control system for landing in dark and foggy conditions, which helps to improve combat efficiency. almost twice that of its predecessor. In the design of the Mi-28NM, the position of the radar transceiver remains above the main rotor of the helicopter. In addition to the upgraded avionics and body frame, the other difference is that the propeller of the Mi-28NM uses composite materials to make the helicopter more stable, the new engine is stronger but more fuel-efficient than that of the Mi-28NM. Predecessor. In addition, Mi-28NM is also equipped with a suicide drone. Helicopters can enter a predefined combat area and launch one or more drones from the cockpit. Once the target has been identified, the crew will report the data and monitor the kill launch process. Mi-28NM is capable of operating in all weather conditions, can fly in both automatic and manned modes, adapts to all kinds of terrain. One of the most practical improvements in the Mi-28NM is the crew’s “double control” mode. In the event that the main pilot is injured or killed, the pilot can still control the helicopter. Another improvement is that Mi-28NM is equipped with an additional radar system on the cockpit, capable of scanning around the aircraft, with a scanning angle of up to 90 degrees horizontally and 44 degrees vertically, helping detect and locate multiple targets at the same time. With such top-notch features, Russia’s Mi-28NM is expected to create a breakthrough in the combat capabilities of the Russian military as well as in the export market.

First, it is necessary to consider the operating principle of Shkval. When an object moves in the water, it will create bubbles around it due to its motion, which is the phenomenon of cavitation in nature. The super-cavity is a more special case, when a large air bubble appears and covers the entire object, then the object will almost fly in the air due to the maximum elimination of friction. This is the principle applied on the VA-111 Shkval super-fast torpedo. The VA-111 Shkval was researched in the 1960s as a specialized weapon for attack submarines to fight nuclear submarines and enemy surface ships. On November 29, 1977, the VA-111 Shkval super-cavity torpedo was officially accepted into service in the combat component of the Soviet Navy. Shkval torpedo uses a solid fuel engine, the head is fitted with a special cavity-forming device. It is a thick elliptical piece of metal that is sharpened with an angle of inclination to the longitudinal axis, with a circular cross-section to create an angle of elevation. In fact, a foam generator is not enough, so the torpedo head adds foaming air ducts, the bubbles are generated by a gas booster. This allows to increase the volume of air bubbles and create bubbles that cover the entire torpedo body. The Shkval super-cavity torpedo has a speed of 93 km/h out of the launch tube and up to over 360 km/h when the engine is at full capacity, twice as fast as conventional torpedoes. The warhead of the VA-111 has a weight of 210 kg, enough to break a 10,000-ton destroyer in two with a single shot. However, it should be added that besides the advantages, the VA-111 also has deadly disadvantages, making its use in combat must be carefully considered. Firstly, Shkval’s range is too short, reaching a maximum of only 6,858 m, forcing the submarine to be close to the enemy to be able to strike. This is extremely dangerous because modern warships all have advanced sonar navigation systems and extremely powerful anti-submarine weapons. Second, it is the super-cavity technology that creates superior speed that makes the torpedo unable to establish two-way communication, when the radio signal is blocked from the outside, unable to penetrate the air bubbles. The torpedo relies on estimating target coordinates prior to launch, and its maneuverability is also extremely poor, as a sharp turn would break the supercavity bubble. Third, the secrecy of the Shkval torpedo is completely absent, because it creates extremely loud noises and forms a line of bubbles floating on the water that is easy to observe. Finally, the unit price of the Shkval torpedo is said to be significantly higher than the older generation types, while the advantages are not yet outstanding. For the above reasons, guided torpedoes such as TEST-71 or Type 53-65 combined with Kalibr cruise missiles will give modern submarines a higher combat capability, especially without tethering. it faces dangerous situations like when carrying the VA-111 Shkval. Currently, Russia announced that it has initially successfully tested the Shkval 2.0 variant with a longer range and controllability. If the above weapon is soon completed, it will really be able to replace the products of the old generation.

Upgraded Russian Mi-28NM attack helicopter.

Russia has developed many weapons development programs methodically. Source: people.com.cn. New weapon development direction Russia launched the first version of the “Russian Weapons Development Program” in 2010 and version 2.0 in 2017. It is planned that version 3.0 will be released by the end of this year. According to Russian media, this program mainly provides follow-up information on the development of weapons and equipment of the Russian army, and is considered a “indicator” for the development of weapons and equipment in the country. . The 2010 version of the “Program” indicates that the Russian military will prioritize the development of nuclear and air defense as well as anti-missile forces, as well as the development of communication command systems and situational awareness. advanced. Under the guidance of this concept, the modernization level of the nuclear forces of the Russian army has been significantly improved, in which the Yars intercontinental ballistic missile regiment has been reorganized, centered The air defense and anti-missile group with the core of the S-400 gradually became the main air defense force. In addition, by 2015 the Russian Army had built a modern command and control system. Version 2.0 of the “Program” revised and supplemented the content of the previous version, proposing to “accelerate the upgrade and transformation of nuclear deterrence” and “ensure that weapons development and equipment of the Russian army in the leading position in the world, and modernization of conventional weapons accounts for more than 70%”. Speaking at a Defense Ministry meeting at the end of 2020, Russian Defense Minister Shoigu said that the Russian military-industrial complex has completed more than 97% of the research, development and production tasks in the “Chapter” program”, all the armed services of Russia have basically completed the goal of weapons procurement. The Russian Ministry of Defense is currently conducting research and preparing to launch the official 3.0 “Program” later this year. Russian media revealed that Moscow has focused on cutting-edge technologies and new concept weapons to ensure that it has a dominant position in the high-tech sector. According to reports, Russia is actively preparing a new version of the “Program” and has listed advanced weapons as the focus of development, with the intention of laying a solid foundation for weapons development, respond to increasingly complex security challenges. Weapons of the future In the new version of the “Program”, Russia will continue to promote the development of nuclear and conventional weapons, while focusing on research into artificial intelligence, robotics, hypersonic weapons and weapons. attack based on new physics principles. As of 2020, the modernization rate of the Russian army’s conventional weapons has reached 70.3%, and the modernization of the nuclear forces has reached 86%. According to the plan, the Russian services will continue to promote the modernization of weapons and equipment at a rate of 2% to 3% annually. Currently, in Russia’s hypersonic arsenal, in addition to the Avangard and Kinzhal missiles that have been put into operation, the Poseidon unmanned rolling device and the Zircon hypersonic cruise missile have also entered the test phase. Russia’s “torpedo” Poseidon scared the whole world. Source: people.com.cn. In addition, Russia recently revealed plans to design light vehicles carrying hypersonic munitions, such as glide bombs, and has continuously developed asymmetrical strategic balancing measures. In the next 10 years, heavy drones represented by “Altius” and “Hunter” will become the mainstay of Russia’s aerospace forces. Many new electronic warfare systems will also become the core of Russia. According to Russian military experts, the new “Program” will introduce “plans for the development of weapons and equipment in the complex climate of the Arctic”. Many difficulties await Some analysts believe that the new Russian version of the “Program” is promising, but will face certain difficulties in the implementation process. On the one hand, the modern technology of the Russian army still has shortcomings, which will be difficult to make up for in the long run, on the other hand, the defense budget of the Russian army is decreasing year by year, which is not suitable for the “stability and ongoing financial support” is suggested in the “Program”. In addition, under the technological blockade of the West, Russia is still struggling to research avionics components, liquid crystal displays, stealth materials and large-scale drones. . In fact, many new weapons and equipment, including the T-14 tank and the Su-57 fighter jet, were short on funding, causing the production time to be continuously extended. In addition, due to the influence of the budget and other strategic plans of the Russian military, there have been many adjustments, such as the program to build a new aircraft carrier.

The feudal power system established by the Qin dynasty laid the basic foundation for the political structure of later Chinese feudal dynasties. In addition, the policies and systems that divided the country into districts, districts and hukou at that time also had a great impact on the development of the next generations. When posterity looks back on Qin Shi Huang’s journey to unify China from a modern perspective, they must also recognize that this glorious path has timeless inspirational power. The Qin people were originally just horse breeders for the Zhou royal family, then rose to the status of vassals in the Zhou Dynasty (795 BC-771 BC). So why is it that Qin Shi Huang – the king of an ordinary vassal state – was able to unify the six countries and become one of the greatest emperors in Chinese history? Historians say that the secret lies in the weapons of the Qin army: The Qin army possessed powerful weapons, far superior to other vassal countries. Prior to the unification of the six states, the kingdom of Qin was a prosperous vassal state through the reform of the “Transformation of Shangyang” (implemented twice in 356 BC and 350 BC). This reform greatly increased the productivity of Qin society and promoted the development of weapons to a certain extent. Experts said that in the excavation sites of the terracotta army, bronze weapons account for a very large proportion. While the forging and metallurgical technology of the other vassal countries were still quite backward, the state of Qin – a country that valued weapons – had made great progress in this field. Earn copper The bronze swords unearthed next to the terracotta warriors are the clearest evidence of the advancement in forging and metallurgy techniques of the Qin Dynasty. After research, it was found that these bronze weapons were superior to the other six vassal states, the main reason being that the Qin state at that time had mastered the method of making alloys. Their craftsmen also tried to apply the proper proportions of alloys to the military field. Some experts believe that the ratio of copper to tin in the weapons of the Qin army at that time was very reasonable and scientific, especially the tin content was much higher than before, helping bronze weapons. of the Qin army was much harder and sharper. It can be seen that these swords not only have anti-rust treatment, but their length is also about 20 cm longer than swords in other countries. Qin Crossbow The second most notable weapon is the Qin crossbow. The Qin crossbow was developed by the Qin state on the basis of the bow and arrow, but its damage is far beyond the ordinary bow and arrow. Conventional bows and arrows have a limited range, low accuracy, and can only shoot one shot, so soldiers are easy to fall into the attack range of the draft. To improve this problem, the Qin crossbow was born. Through a series of design reforms, the Qin crossbow’s hit rate has been greatly improved. Furthermore, crossbow design parts and components are also standardized and uniform across the country. As a result, when a weapon is damaged, it can be quickly replaced or repaired to immediately return to combat. In addition, the Qin crossbow also has a user-friendly design, minimizing the possibility of soldiers injuring themselves. Three-sided arrow Another notable weapon is the three-pointed arrow that the Qin army used. Thanks to the excellent craftsmanship of the Qin Kingdom craftsmen, this arrow has extremely strong penetrating power. It possesses a unique three-sided design that reduces drag to a minimum after firing. This is also a weapon that other vassal countries do not have. Precisely because of possessing weapons much more sophisticated than those used by the armies of other vassal states, New historians argue that the Qin Dynasty possessed “divine objects” that should not have existed at the time. In addition, the principle of standardizing the manufacture of weapons throughout the territory of Qin also helped soldiers improve their combat capabilities. It can be seen that at that time, the Qin Dynasty was ahead of other vassal countries in both economic and technical aspects. It is not surprising that the Qin Kingdom became the ultimate victorious state and unified China.

Mi-28NM is capable of operating in all weather conditions, performing many tasks including armored attack, destruction of low-speed air targets, reconnaissance… This latest version will be released. introduced at the MAKS-2021 Military Show this summer. The performance of the Mi-28NM combat helicopter’s complex skills will be one of the most awaited activities. Mi-28NM combat helicopter. Photo: RBTH The Mi-28NM made its first flight at the end of 2016 and has undergone state tests over the past few years. In June 2019, the Russian Ministry of Defense signed a contract for the supply of 98 aircraft of the Mi-28NM version. The first batch was delivered to the army in 2020. The production of Mi-28NM was also carried out at the Rostvertol plant. “The Mi-28NM helicopter has undergone an upgrade and modification process after the “fire test” in Syria. Engineers have tested the Mi-28NM helicopter in real combat conditions to present to the public a version of the most powerful combat helicopter in the Russian air force,” said Professor Vadim Kozyulin at the Institute of Military Science. Russia said. What’s new in Mi-28NM? The new cabin of the Mi-28NM is protected by armor, including tempered glass in front that can withstand 12.7mm bullets. The armor barrier between the non-crew members also limits the ability to deal consecutive damage to both pilots. This baffle can withstand the impact of 20mm bullets. This is the first time on the Mi-28 helicopter that there is a partition between the two main pilots and the co-pilot. The pilot and copilot emergency exit systems can be activated separately. Mi-28NM has been “fired” in the Syrian battlefield. Photo: RBTH “The Mi-28NM is the latest version of the Mi-28N helicopter. It is enhanced with many capabilities, including mobility. The new helicopter is capable of using high-precision weapons, has a new control system with integrated AI. Mi-28NM can interact with helicopters, UAVs and other aircraft on the battlefield,” said Dmitry Litovkin, Executive Director of Independent Military Review. The “weapon” of the Mi-28NM helicopter also includes kamikaze drones – a type of suicide UAV. “The Mi-28NM can deploy and control one or more suicide UAVs. When hostile objects are detected, the pilots will provide target data and monitor the removal of those targets,” the expert said. The Mi-28NM helicopter can operate in difficult weather conditions, capable of flying in both piloted and automatic modes. One of the key practical changes for the pilot on the Mi-28NM is the dual control mode: in the event of a primary pilot’s injury or death, the co-pilot can continue to control the helicopter. Mi-28N does not have this mode. According to publicly available information, the main difference of the Mi-28NM is that it is equipped with a radar and thermal imaging support system, with the ability to scan around the aircraft instead of a few directions. Mi-28NM has a huge arsenal, including new generation multi-purpose missiles, including those launched beyond the enemy’s air defense identification zone, as well as various types of bombs. The helicopter can attack fixed and moving targets within a radius of 8-10 km.

According to information posted by the US side, the ship CSB 8021 has been renovated and tested by the US side, handed over to the Vietnamese side, and set off to return home. Before handing over to the Vietnam Coast Guard, the ship CSB 8021 was completely repainted by the US side with Vietnam’s national emblem and flag; and especially, the US side removed some weapons from the ship. One of the weapons that was removed from the ship by the US, was the high-speed Phalanx artillery batteries used for close-range defense. The Phalanx short-range defensive high-speed artillery system, considered the standard weapon, appears on nearly every American warship. Born in the 80s of the last century, Phalanx high-speed cannon is designed to be able to fire automatically, its target is objects flying at close range, including aircraft, cruise missiles, … of the opponent. The strength of this weapon is that it has an automatic control mechanism, can use pre-installed radar, to follow the target and fire itself, the firing rate of the Phalanx high-speed cannon is up to 4500 rounds. /min – equivalent to about 75 tablets/second. Also one of the very powerful weapons, however, the US side did not remove the OTO Melara 76mm cannon from the CSB 8021 ship before handing it over to Vietnam. Designed by Italy in the 60s of the last century, the 76mm OTO gunboat is still commonly used on many small American and Western warships. One of the most “expensive” features of this gunboat is that it has an extremely fast rate of fire, up to a maximum of 85 rounds per minute – that is, firing twice every 3 seconds. In addition to the fast rate of fire, the OTO 76mm gunboat also has an extremely advanced cannon stabilization mechanism, which allows to accurately fire the target at a distance of over 10 km. The range of this cannon, depending on the type of ammunition, will be able to shoot up to 16 km to a maximum of 40 km with the most modern Vulcano version. For a fast rate of fire of up to 85 rounds per minute, all incoming OTO 76mm ammunition is housed in a rotating magazine with an electrically automatic reloading mechanism. Theoretically, this automatic magazine can hold up to 80 rounds – that is, with the maximum rate of fire, the 76mm Melara cannon can fire all the ammunition in the magazine in less than time. 1 minute. To ensure the ability to operate at high intensity, the OTO 76mm naval gun has a liquid-cooled mechanism, avoiding the temperature of the barrel and the firing mechanism being pushed up too high. This cooling system can use seawater or fresh water depending on different settings. Close-up of automatic ammunition of the OTO Melara 76mm cannon. Image source: USnavy.

The unique design enables the Su-17/22 to fly at low altitudes at high speed or at high altitudes at supersonic speeds. Weapons are quite diverse and for a long time it is always the nightmare of any ground force confronting them. Su-17/22″ fighter Su-22M4 is the last production variant of this swing-wing fighter with significant upgrades to the avionics including: RSDN navigation system, inertial navigation system, range measurement system. laser way, radar warning system SPO-15LE, in addition on the aircraft design additional air intake slots to have more airflow to cool the engine. Su-22M4 – the most powerful variant of this fighter line After the dissolution of the Soviet Union, Russia inherited a lot of this fighter, this is also the only single-engine supersonic fighter that Russia owns, they continue to serve effectively in the frontline air force. and it was not until 1996 that they were completely scrapped to be replaced by more modern fighter lines.

The large-capacity “field” Covid-19 laboratory at the Bac Giang Center for Disease Control has been fully installed with the cooperation and transfer support of the Military Medical Academy (Hanoi). This area has an area of ​​​​about 200 m2 and was built quickly in 3 days. The center consists of 8 specialized rooms. In which, 2 laboratories meet biosafety level 2. The most dangerous room is the initial sample processing room. This is the workplace of many officers from the Military Medical Academy, Bac Giang Center for Disease Control and volunteer technicians. Responsible for operating the laboratory is Lieutenant Colonel, Dr. BS Ho Huu Tho (Head of Department of Gene Technology and Cell Genetics, Military Medical Academy). According to Dr. Tho, the special feature of this laboratory is that the SARS-CoV-2 virus detection process is highly sensitive, with the cost savings being reduced by nearly half compared to traditional methods. At the same time, the center has the capacity to test tens of thousands of people every day. According to Dr. Tho, this is the world’s first gene technology, using artificial intelligence to analyze PCR results to detect SARS-CoV-2 pathogens (known as AIMS RT-PCR technology). The sensitivity of this method was evaluated against an in vitro RNA standard set for a detection threshold of 7.2 copies/reaction, nearly 7 times lower than the WHO recommended procedure, when evaluating under the same experimental conditions (50 copies/reaction). This study was clinically evaluated on 142 positive cases, 1,034 negative cases for SARS-CoV-2 and 14 other respiratory viruses. The sensitivity and specificity of the method were both 100%. More importantly, the procedure was successful in mixing 100 patient samples in a single real-time reaction without compromising sensitivity. As such, this is a simple, super-sensitive and potential test method for large-scale screening of SARS-CoV-2 with cost savings many times over. According to Dr. Tho, this method is like a weapon we switch from a defensive state to an attack against the Covid-19 epidemic. To communicate with the staff working in the lab, the commander had to use a walkie-talkie system because the windows were always foggy because of the mist and Chloramin B disinfectant. Besides, the technician was wearing clothes For protection, entering the lab will be called by the number corresponding to the job they are undertaking. After each opening to receive samples, the room is sprayed with disinfectant to avoid the risk of infection. All generated waste is also collected and treated according to regulations of the Ministry of Health. To maintain testing capacity, nearly 100 cadets of the Military Medical Academy are divided into small teams working for 8 hours, with 3 rotating teams each day to ensure that the laboratory is always open 24 hours a day. Tran Hoang Minh (student of Military Medical Academy) and friends relax before the shift. He is in charge of the work of separating and taking samples, so the risk of infection is very high. However, Minh feels proud to work at this center. “The laboratory capable of large-scale testing is a very powerful weapon in the fight against the epidemic. With mobilized human strength, strong weapons and high determination, I believe the epidemic will be quickly controlled.” male students share.

According to Izvestia, the Udav pistol purchased by the Russian Ministry of Defense includes two main versions: a mass-use version for the army with code 6P72 and a specialized version with code 6P72-1. Udav gun. Talking about the need for a new gun model, Albert Bakov, general director of the Central Research Institute of Precision Mechanics of Russia (TsNIITOCHMASH, part of the state-owned high-tech corporation Rostec) said that Udav first and foremost needs it. Essential for mobile forces, the users of the Makarov pistol (K-59) were no longer suitable both in terms of firepower and ammunition reserves to carry. “When bad actors have access to a weapon, even if it’s illegal, so there are situations like when a law enforcement officer encounters an 18-round gun object. while this employee only has 8 bullets,” said general manager TsNIITOCHMASH. In order to increase the power of each shot of the Udav, the company has now successfully developed the most powerful ammunition model in the world for the 9x19mm pistol – the caliber of the Udav. This ammunition has the ability to penetrate level 2 bulletproof armor and at a greater range than other similar ammunition. Reliability, ease of use, and power are the main advantages of Russian pistols, and the new 9x19mm pistol also converges these characteristics, but at a higher range, according to a review from the US site National Interest. The American newspaper said that, along with the new 9x19mm gun, most experts have recognized the Udav pistol of TsNIIITOCHMASH as an invention with a number of technical improvements applied in this project. The first improvement, the design features of the barrel ensures that the “closed shutter” cannot move backwards on its own, the trigger rod cannot be moved, and the trigger is locked. The second improvement, the frame of the gun is made in the form of a special stamping die. The result is an increased product life. Next, the fact proved the high accuracy of the gun. The next revolutionary of the gun is the opening of the safety pin that ensures complete safety when handling the weapon. Even if the loaded pistol is directly hit with the trigger, no “trigger snatching” will occur. In particular, the gun is very convenient in close combat, ensuring maneuverability and fast reloading. The gun can be held securely with wet hands, when wearing gloves and allows comfortable shooting with either right or left hand. The Udav gun reloads very quickly: as soon as the cartridge is empty, the barrel lock is retained and the empty magazine is ejected with the push of a button on the handle. As soon as the new magazine is inserted, the first bullet will automatically reload and can be fired immediately. In addition, special patents are granted for silencers with replaceable heat-absorbing modules (special forces version), for cartridges and ammunition. The Udav pistol is capable of using all 9x21mm ammunition.

Russian Peresvet complex. “Peresvet can hit various targets at an unexpected distance from the opponent. The capabilities of this weapon have been proven in combat,” the Russian minister said, comparing the Peresvet to weapons. gas in the American movie Star Wars: “You remember 20 years ago, laser weapons existed only in American fiction films. Today, Russia has made this a reality and the Peresvet complex has been successfully tested and put into service. “. The first Peresvet high-power laser weapon complex was equipped with the Russian Army starting at the end of 2018. It is also in the Russian category of classified weapons. But according to two Russian military experts Alexei Leonkov and Igor Korotchenko, the Peresvet combat laser weapon system has two very important capabilities: shooting down unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and countering long-range cruise missiles with American Tomahawk high precision. Igor Korotchenko, director of the Center for Analysis of the World Arms Trade (CAMTO), confirmed that laser weapons such as the Peresvet complex can destroy unmanned aircraft. “Under favorable conditions, laser complexes like Peresvet are effective enough to destroy simulated targets such as drones, low-flying helicopters,” Korotchenko said. A second important feature is that thanks to Peresvet, Russia can effectively deal with modern air attack vehicles, high-precision weapons or reconnaissance equipment using optical-electronic equipment, expert Alexei Leonkov said. For example, to determine the target, the American Tomahawk missile will search for it visually, orient it with a digitized topographic map, put into the automatic control memory. If at this very moment a combination like Peresvet affects it, the search immediately stops. When the target is lost, the Tomahawk will self-destruct. Thus, despite no loud claims, Russia has quietly developed and quickly commissioned real laser weapons systems, forming combat capabilities, not merely tests. in the laboratory. With the above analysis, it is clear that in addition to close-range air defense systems such as Pantsir-S, Tor-M2E, the US Tomahawk cruise missile continues to encounter a very dangerous new enemy of Russia. Peresvet’s name. According to military expert Konstantin Sivkov, director of the Russian Institute of Geopolitical Affairs, Russia’s introduction of the Peresvet is one step ahead of the US. Currently, many countries are still in the exploration and testing stage of laser weapons development. Even the US can only use low-power tactical laser weapons with powers typically below 100 kilowatts. The most recent test in May 2020, the US successfully performed a laser weapon with a power of about 150 kilowatts. But even so, this capacity is still not enough to be able to destroy attack fighters and other targets. A 150 kilowatt laser can only counter speedboats or small UAVs, and the range is limited. At the same time, the stability of the laser in the actual combat environment is also a dilemma for the US and some other countries. When Russian laser weapons are already able to hit and destroy targets on the actual battlefield, it means that Russia’s technical level in the laser field has really matured. Also related to the recent US test of laser weapons in the Pacific Ocean, expert Konstantin Sivkov, expressed doubts about the effectiveness of US laser weapons. “To shoot down a more complex target like a ballistic missile as the US claims, requires keeping the laser beam on the target for several tens of seconds. That’s a great technical difficulty. During this time, the rocket flew a distance of tens of kilometers. There is currently no evidence that US laser weapons are successful in dealing with such fast targets,” the Russian expert wrote.

According to experts, Kazan is a fully domestically built submarine and is superior to foreign nuclear-powered ships in terms of technical characteristics. In the future, submarines can receive the modern Zircon hypersonic missile complex. Technically completely new project In recent years, the Kazan nuclear submarine has passed tests in the White Sea, and achieved the published technical indicators. In particular, the crew conducted submarine warfare tests at positions on the water surface and underwater, measured technical parameters, in which the noise level when moving underwater and the attack weapon system. . The Kazan nuclear submarine officially entered service with the Russian Navy. The Kazan nuclear submarine was built in 2009, but the time of delivery to the Russian Navy has been delayed several times. In response to RT.ru, Editor-in-Chief of the Defense Journal Igor Korotchenko explained that the delay was due to the need to test a large number of new technical solutions integrated into the project 885M nuclear submarine. According to experts, the construction and testing of a lead submarine of an improved or new project is always a long process and goes through many complicated stages. In addition, for the domestic shipbuilding industry and the Russian Ministry of Defense, the improvement of nuclear-powered submarines is to a state that allows the performance of effective combat missions on a large scale of the oceans. Positive is an urgent priority today. Meanwhile, the founder of the Russian military information site Dmitry Kornev said that delaying the commissioning of the Kazan submarine is completely reasonable. He explained the difficulties caused by a large amount of research and development work, along with the establishment of a large-scale industrial co-production system. “The Yasen-class nuclear submarine is a completely new and technically challenging project for our industry. The real partnership mechanism was created from the very beginning, with hundreds of businesses from many different industries. It took a lot of time to find contractors and fine-tune the delivery mechanism. Russia has also abandoned the use of imported components,” said expert Kornev. 4th generation nuclear submarine Kazan is a lead nuclear submarine of the fourth generation of project 885M (Yasen class), developed by the Malakhit Marine Design Bureau (Saint Petersburg). The construction of this nuclear submarine is carried out at the facilities of JSC PO Sevmash (Severodvinsk). The Kazan Multi-Purpose Nuclear Submarine is designed to destroy enemy surface ships, submarines, transport vehicles and ground targets. The submarine is equipped with eight vertical launch tubes, salvo-type launchers for Kalibr and Onyx high-precision cruise missiles, with ranges of up to 1,500 and 300 km. The Kazan nuclear submarine was developed by the Malakhit Marine Design Bureau. According to the developer, these weapons can engage highly protected, grouped targets, including those equipped with anti-missile defense systems. In addition, the attack weapon of the project 885/885M nuclear submarine is also equipped with 30 533 mm caliber torpedoes. The main operational characteristics of the Kazan and Yasen-class ships have not yet been revealed. However, according to experts, this modernized nuclear submarine is similar to the Project 885 Severodvinsk submarine, which entered service with the Northern Fleet in June 2014 in weight, size, and weapons. work, construction characteristics and speed. Analysts say the difference is mainly related to onboard equipment, including electronics and sonar equipment. The length of the Yasen-class submarine is about 139 m, the width is about 13 m, the draft is 10 m, the displacement is about 8,600 tons, underwater up to 13,800 tons. The ship is capable of independent operation for 100 days. The multi-purpose submarine can dive to a depth of 600 m and reach a speed of 57.4 km / h underwater. According to a report by the Malakhit Maritime Design Bureau, this project 885 nuclear submarine has a mixed architecture and structure with a sturdy double-hull structure, made of high-strength steel. Expert Dmitry Kornev explained that the engineers of the Malakhit Marine Design Bureau considered a two-hull scheme for the production of nuclear submarines. The two-body scheme is resistant to mechanical damage, but is more expensive and has a relatively high noise level. Accordingly, a reasonable solution was found at Yasen when the two hulls together covered the bow of the submarine and the structural elements near the launch pad, i.e. the parts that bear the greatest load. The hull of project 885/885M is divided by strong bulkheads into 8 compartments, including: main bridge, torpedo compartment, living quarters, electromechanical, missile, reactor, turbine and auxiliary compartment. aid. “To create optimal conditions for the operation of the hydroacoustic complex, the torpedo tubes were removed from the bow and placed at an angle to the center plane. A large diameter GAK (hydroacoustic complex) spherical antenna is located at the end of the bow,” the Malakhit Maritime Design Bureau report states. The quality of the sonar equipment plays an extremely important role in the performance of the assigned tasks of nuclear submarines in the vast range of the ocean. Yesen submarine hydroacoustic complex system is used to detect enemies, classify targets, find interference direction, measure ice thickness, detect mines and torpedoes, search for ice holes to fly up and launch. safe rocket. Also according to the developer, the main power unit of the project 885/885M nuclear submarines belongs to the new generation. It consists of a pressurized water reactor and a modular single-shaft steam turbine unit, with various mechanisms and redundancies, capable of reducing the acoustic parameters of the submarine. Another technical innovation in Yasen-class submarines is a rescue chamber designed to evacuate the entire crew. This equipment is improved by domestic experts, taking into account the experience of domestic and foreign submarine accidents and incidents. The main nuclear submarine of the Russian Navy According to the Russian Ministry of Defense, the project 885M submarines “will become an important part of the offensive power” of the Russian Navy and will be able to effectively operate as part of a strike group at any distance. any way compared to the base points. The crew of the project 885M Kazan nuclear submarine. Photo: Russian Ministry of Defense. “In the Yasen-M class nuclear submarine project, a number of technical solutions were used that were not previously used in domestic submarine construction. The basic components of the electronic weapon complexes, modernized equipment and rescue systems are exclusively Russian products,” the Russian military agency said. In the immediate future, the nuclear-powered submarines of Project 885M will become the main multi-purpose nuclear submarine of the Russian Navy. Currently, seven such submarines are under construction, including Novosibirsk, Krasnoyarsk, Arkhangelsk, Perm, Ulyanovsk, Voronezh and Vladivostok. Experts expect that the construction and testing of these submarines will not take much time, as the verification of technical solutions and the building of cooperative relationships have been successfully completed during construction. Kazan nuclear submarine. “The official transfer of Kazan to the navy allows us to conclude that the main difficulties for the implementation of the plans for the Yasen-M project have been overcome. This is a modern, fully Russian nuclear submarine. It is superior to all existing nuclear submarines abroad in terms of overall capabilities”, emphasized expert Kornev. This expert believes that putting project 885M submarines into service will significantly improve the combat capabilities of the Russian Navy. Accordingly, in the future the Yasen-M nuclear submarine will receive Zircon hypersonic missiles in its arsenal. Currently, this weapon is still being tested. Expert Igor Korotchenko said that the appearance of nuclear-powered ships of project 885M will increase the offensive and defensive capabilities of the Russian Navy. Yasen-class submarines will significantly strengthen the position of the Russian Navy, allowing a more efficient and high-quality implementation of the assigned tasks. “With the introduction of new nuclear submarines, the Russian Navy will receive a significant increase in submarine nuclear deterrence,” concluded Korotchenko.

From the observations of analyst Andrey Kots, it can be seen that the Russians displayed a new variant of the Kurganets-25 infantry fighting vehicle with the 57 mm BM “Epoch” turret – different from the 30 mm cannon in the reviews. former soldiers. According to analyst Ryabov Kirill, the LShO-57 differs from the well-known 57 mm 2A91 cannon in a number of features including a shorter barrel (barrel length 40 times the size) and no recoil compensation. This design makes the ballistics more stretchable, but at the same time, it also requires the development of new ammunition such as fragmentation explosive ammunition (suitable for the requirements of anti-UAV combat as mentioned above) and armor-piercing ammunition. Kurganets-25 infantry fighting vehicle parade The Kurganets-25 is a new generation of armored fighting vehicles designed to replace the BMP-2 and MT-LB vehicles in motorized units of the Russian army. This will promise to be a line of weapons that will glorify the Russian armored forces. The Kurganets-25 is heavily armed with a 30mm 2A42 automatic cannon with 500 rounds, or a 57mm caliber 2A91 cannon with 200 rounds, in addition to a 7.62mm PKT coaxial machine gun, anti-tank missiles with Kornet-EM remote control, thermobaric grenade launcher. Infantry fighting vehicle Kurganets-25 In addition, the vehicle is equipped with a meteorological reconnaissance system, 2 photoelectric target reconnaissance systems and missile guidance that significantly improve the combat capability of this armored vehicle. On the other hand, the electronic systems will be part of the sensor system, serving the active defense system “soft suppression”. The body of the vehicle is also fitted with 16 grenade launchers and 4 sensors of the Afghanit “hard pressure” system to help the vehicle have excellent defense against infantry and laser-guided weapons. A light on the turret could also be part of an active defense system against second-generation guided anti-tank missiles.

Americans call the unexplained neurological problems experienced by US diplomats in Cuba in 2016, including dizziness, ringing in the ears, headaches and nausea – sometimes combined by a ” the mysterious but more serious noise…, is the “Havana Syndrome”. Notably, in 2018, some US employees working in a few countries other than Cuba such as China (in Guangzhou) also reported experiencing similar symptoms – dizziness, lightheadedness, fatigue, or fatigue. headaches and blurred vision, memory loss and difficulty concentrating; some even face severe vision and hearing loss; children in the home had nosebleeds – prompting the Donald Trump administration to allege that diplomats were attacked with a secret weapon. In the late 2010s, US and Canadian diplomats experienced health problems of unknown cause; Source: stellariasacademy.online Mosquito repellent may be the cause of a mysterious illness that affects about 40 US and Canadian diplomats in Cuba, according to Canadian government research. Scientists from Dalhousie University and the Nova Scotia Health Service studied Canadian victims and also the brain of a pet dog after death. The results showed that these people lacked cholinesterase – an enzyme necessary for the functioning of the nervous system. Some pesticides work by inhibiting this substance. During the 2016-2018 period, Cuba stepped up the spraying of disinfectants to prevent the spread of Zika. That was also the time when diplomats had unusual symptoms. It is not clear if Cubans will be affected by the disinfectant, but the Canadian team of scientists is planning to work with Cuban scientists to further investigate the issue. Returning from Guangzhou, American diplomats were only allowed to take unpaid leave instead of receiving treatment and rehabilitation. The Trump administration also did not launch an independent investigation into the cause of the incident. American diplomats who had to be evacuated from Guangzhou are still fighting for not receiving the benefits they deserve compared to victims of the “Havana Syndrome”; US diplomat Mark Lenzi filed a lawsuit against the State Department. Meanwhile, some medical experts and US officials believe that this is just a psychological disease that is formed in a stressful working environment abroad. According to the New York Times, the University of Pennsylvania Brain Injury Rehabilitation Center has received 44 American diplomats returning from Cuba and 15 returning from China. Here, treating doctors declined to comment in detail, but rejected the theory of a psychological illness. According to them, these patients all experienced brain injuries due to external influences. Symptoms Similar to “Havana Syndrome” The Pentagon and other agencies that are investigating the incidents have not yet discovered or released details, but the suspicion of an attack that happened too close to the White House is of interest, especially for these reasons. familiar – terrorism. In early April 2021, the Senate and House Armed Services Committees were briefed by Defense officials, possibly including an incident that happened near the White House. The latest symptoms similar to “Havana Syndrome” have been reported near the White House, for some; Source: news.com.au The incident happened on the Ellipse – the large oval lawn south of the White House – where the “energy attack” took place that made a National Security Council official fall ill, according to several current officials. current and former US official with CNN. A female White House official also reported a similar incident in 2019, when she was walking her dog in suburban Virginia, according to a GQ report from 2020. All people who have experienced symptoms These witnesses all report their experiences to the CIA and the foreign personnel department of the State Department, to quickly open investigations into possible “Havana syndrome” attacks. A study by the National Academy of Sciences in late 2020 found that the illness that American officials contracted in Cuba, still known as “Havana Syndrome,” could be the result of microwave radiation. The document also says that the Soviet Union studied the effects of radio frequency energy 50 years ago – meaning any country, group or entity with similar technology could be behind the attack. power station near the White House and elsewhere. Microwaves are a type of electromagnetic radiation. The human eye can only see a small fraction of electromagnetic radiation – as visual light. But today, microwaves are in common everyday use – including telephone and television communications. Industrial applications include potato processing, plywood drying and curing, bread and donut making, etc. Sonic weapons may be the cause of the incident at the White House A directed-energy weapon that uses microwaves can quickly heat up parts of the body – especially those with less blood flow, like the ears, testicles, or brain. But more likely, the microwave during the “Havana Syndrome” event – and possibly the event near the White House – was the use of sonic weapons, or long-range acoustic devices. Is it true that “Havana Syndrome” is caused by a mysterious weapon?; Source: stellariasacademy.online Jai Galliott, director of defense and technology assessment and a former Australian naval officer at the University of New South Wales, said in an ABC report that sonic weapons can cause lung and liver damage. if set to the appropriate decibel (unit of sound measurement). Galliott adds, it has been shown that sustained low-frequency exposure over a long period of time can have other effects on the brain, and potentially brain tissue. And these weapons are real. The technology has existed since the 1970s and entered public discussion in the 1980s. But because the technology is still in the near-monopoly of the eyes of high-ranking government officials – like the Ministry Defense (DoD) or Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) – it is not easy to determine exactly how the weapons and symptoms of the White House event are causally related. “It’s not particularly complicated technology, it’s more about how they use it [và] effects they used to use [điều đó còn khó hiểu hơn]”; “Definitely Russia has that technology, the US has that technology, and also China,” Galliott explained to ABC. While it’s too early to say which devices, if any, caused the debilitating symptoms experienced by US officials near the White House and elsewhere in the previous months, we could be on the way. into a new era of discreet yet effective attacks on high-ranking officials – leaving no trace of the actors to blame. It is possible that the energy attacks were carried out from a low-flying drone, or a nearby operator, although this is only speculation. Canadian diplomats said their government had more detailed information on brain injuries caused by “Havana Syndrome”, but gave no further details.

Due to the presence of minerals and other resources on the Red Planet, in the future, Mars could be an abundant source. All in all, the initiatives in this direction are impressive, but as always, there are nuances attached to them. Traveling to Mars on 1,000 rockets and creating land for 1 million earthlings as Elon Musk suggests is an extremely expensive and technologically difficult task. It is not necessary to list all the problems that arise when massive scientific works are devoted to this, just to mention the main “knots”. First, There is no technology that allows the creation of spacecraft with the ability to send people into distant space without having to receive a lethal dose of cosmic radiation. This problem could be solved by wrapping lead plates, but would lead to a proportional increase in the mass of the ship and a decrease in its carrying capacity. New engines were needed, but they are now beyond production. Monday, Solar radiation will remain a problem on the Martian surface. The Red Planet, unlike Earth, does not have a magnetic field that protects us from ionizing radiation. Astronauts will not have to walk on red sand dunes like in the movie “Total Recall”, but have to hide in bases hidden deep below the surface. Tuesday, Mars on Mars is cold and has practically no atmosphere, but the radiation background is 2.5 times higher than what astronauts on the ISS can tolerate. It is impossible to live in such conditions without a special space suit. There are also many other problems, but it is clear that expanding living space is an extremely important task for all of humanity, requiring accumulation and huge investments in technology. For this reason, scientists are seriously skeptical of Elon Musk’s initiative, especially when he proposes to carry out thermonuclear bombardments at both poles of the Red Planet. This will lead to higher temperatures, melting glaciers, the formation of liquid water and the release of greenhouse gases, which will create the atmosphere on Mars. After that, the settlers could walk on the surface without the spacesuit. But there is another way of looking at this “terrain” approach. Mathematician Robert Walker calculates that in order to carry out the first part of the plan, which would require at least 1 million nuclear bombs with a capacity of 100 megatons, they would have to be sent to Mars 3,500 a day for seven weeks to achieve. desired results. There are no such large numbers of nuclear weapons on Earth and the lack of means to deliver them to another planet. This is the first thing. Carbon dioxide reserves on Mars would not be enough to create a suitable atmosphere, even if the first problem were solved. Since the Red Planet has no magnetic field, solar radiation will gradually “suck” in the already formed magnetic field. This is the second thing. And finally, for some reason, Elon Musk doesn’t take into account that after so many nuclear explosions, the surface of the planet will be radioactive for a long time, you can’t walk there with a mask oxygen and plant trees. “Nuke Mars” is just a cover for the US to send nuclear weapons into space? In general, Elon Musk’s initiative is a nonsense and he himself cannot help but understand this. But why is this smart man promoting it? The head of Roscosmos – Mr. Dmitry Rogozin tried to answer the question: Anyone who calls for the “terrain” of Mars or other planets is well aware that this is just an excuse for launching nuclear weapons into space, which, if useful, is just to “terrain”. our “Earth. But it’s true, you can’t just send nuclear warheads to Mars. First, they will need to be put into orbit and accumulate somewhere along with the means to send them in large batches. Where is that? Suppose that a circular orbit station, which the United States and its allies are building, will be adapted for this case, with China and Russia as targets. But will the nuclear bomb then make its way to the Red Planet? It’s long been no secret that Elon Musk is working closely with the Pentagon on the space program and satellites. So why not try with the best cause, Mars exploration, to advocate for the idea of ​​​​putting a US nuclear arsenal in space, Mr. Rogozin concluded.

Dressed in blue protective gear and wearing a visor under a bright yellow turban, Jitender Singh Shunty sprayed disinfectant on bodies at the Seemapuri crematorium in northeastern Delhi. He had to act fast because bodies were delivered faster than cremation. The families and friends of those who have died, and those who are trying to find hospital beds and oxygen tanks to save their loved ones, are losing patience. “We are doing all we can to help families have a decent funeral for their loved ones,” he said as he rushed into another ambulance that had just arrived with two bodies. Since the beginning of April, when India suffered a second wave of the outbreak, Jitender Singh Shunty and his 20 volunteers were shocked by the large number of bodies brought in. “Last year we cremated 967 bodies, this month alone we cremated 670 bodies,” he said. Worldometers chart of the high number of infections in India as of May 10. About 20km from Seemapuri, New Delhi, dozens of people were gathering outside Waseem’s gas station. They all have the same question: When will the new oxygen tanks arrive? Waseem is committed to updating information on WhatsApp as soon as it is available. “People are dying from lack of oxygen so I thought I had to do something to help them,” Waseem said. “Someone told me that I would get sick if I kept going out and meeting so many people with Covid-19 relatives. I’m really scared, but if I don’t help them, I’ll be haunted for life.” Waseem added. Not alone As India is trying to find a way to deal with the pandemic, young men and women from all over the country do not hesitate to volunteer to contribute to the fight. They set up apps to solicit support and help, distribute key supplies, and use social media to direct resources to those in need. With two-thirds of its 1.3 billion population under the age of 35, India is a country dominated by young people, but young people have never been called upon to shoulder such enormous responsibilities. Photo: Times of India Swadha Prasad is working with dozens of volunteers – all between the ages of 14 and 19 – as part of the youth-led UNCUT organization, building an online database to gather information. about available medical resources across the country. This is 24/7, with teens constantly working over the phone to verify supplies, update information in real time, and take calls from patient relatives. “Some of us work from midnight to morning, because the calls don’t stop at 3 a.m.,” CNA quoted Prasad, a 17-year-old schoolgirl who worked 14 hours a day from noon the day before to 1 a.m. next morning. It was a long and tiring shift, but this Mumbai resident was still very enthusiastic. “If I could help save a life, I would never say No.” And many Covid-19 victims have been saved. Prasad cites an example where her team was able to deliver oxygen in the middle of the night, saving the life of a young patient desperately waiting for help. “It’s not just about providing resources… sometimes people want to know they’re not alone,” she said. The graph of Worldometers shows the correlation between the number of new infections (yellow) and the number of new recoveries (blue) in India as of April 30. Technology limitations However, in many small Indian towns and villages, technological limitations exacerbate the situation. Urgent requests for resources and spare hospital beds have spurred a large number of Twitter users. 25-year-old software engineer Umang Galaiya solved this problem by writing an app that makes it easy for users to find what they need, and directs their search to verified resources. But even so, his application cannot help many people living outside of big cities because the number of internet users is very small. “If I look for resources in Jamnagar, I get nothing on Twitter,” reflected the young man. And according to this male engineer, the pandemic cannot be controlled without the government. Simple measures still save many lives. For example, authorities could create an online bed registry, which updates automatically in real time, to save distressed patients from running back and forth knocking on the door of each treatment facility. According to the update of statistics page Worldometers, as of noon on May 12, India has recorded more than 23.3 million people infected with Covid-19 and about 254,200 deaths.

American diplomats who had been evacuated from Guangzhou are still struggling for not getting the benefits they deserve compared to victims of “Havana Syndrome”; US diplomat Mark Lenzi filed a lawsuit against the State Department. Meanwhile, some medical experts and US officials believe that this is just a psychological disease formed in a stressful working environment abroad. According to the New York Times, the University of Pennsylvania’s Center for Brain Injury Recovery has received 44 US diplomats returning from Cuba and 15 returning from China. Here, the treating doctors declined to comment in detail, but rejected the hypothesis of a psychological disease. According to them, these patients all have brain injury caused by external influences. Similar symptoms “Havana syndrome” The Pentagon and other agencies are investigating cases that have yet to discover or release details, but suspicion of an attack occurring too close to the White House is of interest, especially for reasons familiar – terror. In early April 2021, the Senate and House Military Affairs Committee was notified by Defense officials, possibly including an event that took place near the White House. The most recent reported symptoms of “Havana Syndrome” occurred next to the White House, for some people; Source: news.com.au The incident happened in Ellipse – the large oval lawn south of the White House – where the “energy attack” occurred that caused a National Security Council official to fall ill, according to some current officials. at and former US official with CNN. A female White House official reported the same incident in 2019, when she was walking her dog in suburbs of Virginia, according to a GQ report from 2020. All those who have experienced the million This testimony both reported their experiences to the CIA and the State Department’s overseas personnel department, to quickly open investigations of possible “Havana syndrome” attacks. A study by the National Academy of Sciences in late 2020 found that the disease that US officials acquired in Cuba still known as “Havana Syndrome” could be a result of microwave radiation. The document also said that the Soviet Union studied the effects of radio frequency energy 50 years ago – meaning any country, group or entity with similar technology could be behind the attack. energy efficiency near the White House and elsewhere. Microwaves are a type of electromagnetic radiation. The human eye can only see a fraction of the electromagnetic radiation – in the form of visual light. But today, microwaves are in common use every day – including telephone and television communication. Industrial applications include potato processing, plywood drying and curing, bread and donut making, etc. The Sonic weapon could have been the cause of the White House incident An energy-oriented weapon using microwaves can quickly heat up parts of the body – especially places with less blood flow, like the ears, testicles or brain. But more likely, the microwaves during the “Havana Syndrome” event – and possibly the one near the White House – were the use of acoustic weapons, or long-range audio equipment. Is “Havana Syndrome” caused by a mysterious weapon ?; Source: stellariasacademy.online Jai Galliott – director of defense and technology assessment and former Australian naval officer at the University of New South Wales – said in an ABC report, sound weapons can damage the lungs and liver. if the decibel level (sound measurement unit) is set appropriately. Galliott added, it has been shown that prolonged low frequency exposure can have other effects on the brain, and potentially affecting brain tissue. And these weapons are real. This technology has been around since the 1970s and was brought into public discussion in the 1980s. But because this technology is still in the near monopoly of high-ranking government officials – like the ministry. Defense (DoD) or Central Intelligence Service (CIA) – so it’s not easy to pinpoint exactly how the weapons and symptoms of the White House event are related to cause and effect. “It’s not particularly complicated technology, it’s in favor of how they use it [và] the effect they used [điều đó còn khó hiểu hơn]”; “Certainly Russia has that technology, America has that technology, and China too,” Galliott explained to ABC. While it is too early to say which device, if any, causes the debilitating symptoms that US officials near the White House and elsewhere experienced in previous months, we may be on the way. into a new era of discreet but effective attacks on high-ranking officials – leaving no trace of agents to be charged. It is possible that energy attacks are made from a low-flying drone, or an operator nearby, though this is only speculation. Canadian diplomats said their government has more detailed information on brain injuries caused by “Havana Syndrome”, but did not give further details.

Russia has developed an “impossible” range electronic warfare system. Illustration. Russian Deputy Prime Minister Yuri Borisov emphasized that two of Russia’s newest electronic suppression and electronic warfare complexes – “Triada” and “Palantin”, are capable of completely intercepting enemy communications, hitting electronic weapons systems and even intercept spacecraft located at an altitude of several hundred kilometers from the earth’s surface. Among mobile electronic suppression systems, the Krasukha family EW systems receive special attention, capable of suppressing the enemy’s communications equipment and his weapons at an up range. Up to 300 km, however, at present the ability of Russian weapons so that the Russian army can easily conduct suppression even after the front lines of the enemy.

Taiwan Air Force F-16. The Taiwanese military has announced plans to sell its old F-16 radars after Taipei’s fighter squadron received new radar systems. Taiwan’s F-16 fighter aircraft is being upgraded with the new AN / APG-83 AESA radar as part of the retrofitting of the F-16 Block 70 version. However, the old APG-66 radars are still serviceable and valuable in the international arms market, Liberty Times reported. A source familiar with the matter has pointed out that APG-66 radars could also be installed on F-16A / B fighter jets, which are still in service with foreign air forces. After Taiwan completes the retrofit of its jets, a batch of more than 100 APG-66 radars will be sold in accordance with US regulations, with profits transferred to Taipei’s treasury. The value of the old radars has yet to be determined, the source said. Taiwan purchased 150 F-16 fighters from the US in 1992 and received them in 1997. According to the Northrup Grumman group, the new AN / APG-83 features high-resolution synthetic aperture radar mapping in all weather conditions to show pilots a large surface image for item identification. target and more accurate attack information.

AK-130 gunboat on Russian battleships. Photo: Internet Although born in the Soviet Union, but up to now, the AK-130 gunboat system is still a fearsome weapon with any target at sea in range. Specifically, according to expert Maya Carlin on National Interest, it is the ability to complete many tasks and high stability that the Russian Navy still believes in using the AK-130 gunboat on large warships despite the weapons. This weighs up to 100 tons. Although the development time of the AK-130 has been lengthened for a variety of reasons, this weapon has proven to be a highly efficient weapon with a rate of fire of more than 60 rounds per minute. It is known that the Soviet Navy began to have plans to own large caliber automatic cannons from the years of World War II. Artillery soldiers of the Soviet Armed Forces said that the existing cannons with caliber from 100-130mm with slow firing speed limited their ability to attack aerial targets. Therefore, in the period 1952-1955, the Soviet Union developed a number of prototype automatic cannon loaded ammunition. Automatic guns were planned for development and service in the Navy as part of the shipbuilding program for the period 1956-1965, but the plan was later abandoned. Technical blueprints bearing the plant designation ZIF-92 appeared in 1969. It was a single caliber 130mm cannon. Many of the features of the ZIF-92 gun were later applied to the AK-130 gunboat. The ZIF-92 prototype featured new, but not without deficiencies. Soviet experts planned to mount ZIF-92 on the patrol boat of Project 1135 Burevestnik. However, the ZIF-92 proved too heavy for ships of this type and forced to stay on the shelf. The Soviet Navy was finally delivered with a double-barreled gunboat in 1985. The gun was named AK-130 and was installed on the Project 956 Sovremeny destroyer. The AK-130 was developed in 1976 in the Arsenal design room named MV Frunze. With the 2-barrel design was really necessary for the gunboat because 1 barrel could not guarantee a firing efficiency of 60 rounds / min. With 2 barrels, the AK-130 cannon can fire 80 rounds / minute (each barrel shoots 40 rounds). Each bullet weighs 33kg. The AK-130’s maximum range when attacking sea and ground targets is 23km.

According to Hot cars, a Korean company specializing in manufacturing Hanwha Defense military equipment has just completed a robotic military car called “Unmanned surveillance vehicle 6×6 – USV 6×6”. In it, this new vehicle was applied in the military after research and testing has been completed. Discover the Korean army’s first 6×6 unmanned reconnaissance vehicle After the performance of a flying device called Valkyrie Combat Drone, recently, information about the Korean USV 6×6 car was announced. This is a reconnaissance and highly combat robot car that meets the combat requirements set by the Korean military. Accordingly, this vehicle has reached level 6 readiness (TR6) for key capabilities such as autonomous driving, obstacle detection and avoidance as well as target identification and destruction. USV 6×6 and intelligent military equipment and vehicles manufactured by Hanwha Defense Company. This robot car model can be controlled remotely and can also “operate independently” according to a preset command. Thanks to the radar system, sensors, and cameras, it can self-avoid obstacles and follow the programmed route even in the event of loss of communication with the operator. According to Korea IT times, the 1.5-ton vehicle is fully electric with the main task of supporting infantry soldiers in various combat situations such as monitoring, logistics, and evacuation. casualties and combat participation. Model USV 6×6 reconnaissance vehicle will assist infantry soldiers in different combat situations. With the reconnaissance version, this vehicle is also equipped with a series of remote-controlled weapons, also designed and manufactured by Hanwha Defense such as 7.62 mm machine guns, 12.7 mm large machine guns, even including automatic grenade launcher 40 mm. Previously, in 2019, another unmanned vehicle was also developed by Hanwha Defense called the MPUGV 4×4 but with less equipment. Royal Union (According to Carscoops, Hanwha Defense, Korea IT times)

It is not easy for Malaysia to have the current development of CNQP. Back in the 90s of the last century, the representative of the country’s CNQP industry were few small companies specialized in the production of general goods, while a few large companies could carry out important work for The military, like building ships or maintaining aircraft, has to depend on civilian businesses. Also at this time, Malaysia Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad’s Vision 2020 goal of turning Malaysia into a country with advanced technology and complete industrialization by 2020 was kicked off. Along with this goal is the development of the industrial sector in Malaysia, especially CNQP and the space, through technology transfer and programs to allow defense procurement from abroad. The AV8 Gempita armored fighting vehicle is manufactured by Deftech Company of Malaysia in cooperation with FNSS Company of Turkey. Photo: janes.com Vision 2020 is set at a time when Malaysia’s economy is growing well and the country’s education has provided a workforce that is not only proficient in skills, well-educated but also well-managed. high tech. As a result, more and more people want to pursue the path of specialized knowledge and skills, creating a competitive advantage in the labor market. These are ideal conditions for CNQP to develop. An important point that helped promote the CNQP of Malaysia was the change in the strategic view of the Malaysian armed forces. In other words, this force faces a new challenge and needs to change from an army based mainly on the army with the support of coastal and air force, to a modern armed force with naval navigation. The air force and the air force became the servicemen with a larger role. The policies and favorable conditions are like that, but also a lot of difficulties. First, the money spent on technology transfer and equipment maintenance is huge. Second, spending a lot on defense at a time when Malaysia is enjoying peace has caused many people to question. In dealing with these issues, Malaysia chose to focus on domestic CNQP companies and as such, equipment procurement is understood to create more jobs for people, not just national security. To support domestic firms, since 2004, the Malaysian Government has implemented contracts under the “Long Term Guide 5 + 5” to ensure job security for domestic defense contracts. Accordingly, domestic companies can sign a 5-year contract with 2 extended years and another 3-year contract if the company complies with the contract. Following the success, Malaysia will bring its CNQP to a new position with the policy to be implemented. The Malaysia Defense White Paper 2019 affirms that the Malaysian CNQP still focuses on developing human resources, technology, industry, autonomy and international market penetration to further actively contribute to the economy and national capacity. room of this country.

Aircraft B-47. Photo: US Air Force According to Business Insider, the loss of the first nuclear weapon by the US military is also one of the most mysterious. On March 10, 1956, a B-47 Stratojet strategic bomber carrying two nuclear warheads took off from MacDill Air Base, Florida to Morocco. As planned, it was given aerial refueling twice. However, this strafe disappeared, no second refueling. The international team of experts was unable to find any trace of the B-47, whether it be debris, weapons or crew. In the end, the US military decided to stop searching. 2. In 1958: The plane was damaged, bombed into the sea On May 2, 1958, B-47 bombers with nuclear weapons left Florida to participate in drills for mocking a Soviet city and dealing with enemy interceptors. . In the sky off Georgia state, a B-47 accidentally collided with an interceptor and suffered certain damage. The interceptor pilot jumps out, while the B-47 pilot wants to land with the bomb but cannot. They bombed the ocean near Tyree Island and landed safely. Because engineers changed plutonium to lead for training purposes, the missing bomb had a subcritical uranium-235 mass and could not detonate the nucleus. 3. 1961: Two nuclear bombs almost turn North Carolina into a “gulf”. Aircraft B-52. Photo: AP On January 24, 1961, a B-2 aircraft carrying two Mark 39 bombs was attacked by a storm and both bombs dropped. Each of these is 253 times more powerful than the Little Boy that the US threw at Hiroshima, Japan. The pilot, a survivor of the accident, promptly warned the US Air Force about this dreadful incident. The first bomb was found in a parachute, suspended in a tree, nose pointed straight to the ground. It went through 6 out of 7 steps needed to explode. Fortunately, its safety was in place and the Mark 39 landed safely. “Now you will have a very large North Carolina Gulf area if that bomb goes off,” said Jack Revelle, who is in charge of locating and disarming. While the other bomb’s safety switch did not return to the correct position, no one could understand why it did not explode, saving tens of thousands of lives. 4. 1965: The unfortunate plane crashed into the sea On December 5, 1965, a US Navy A-4 Skyhawk bomber was moving aboard the USS Ticonderoga to prepare for the exercise when an incident occurred. It deviates from the tow ladder with a pre-loaded pilot and a B43 nuclear weapon. The plane quickly submerged 5km below sea level. The status of this weapon has yet to be determined. The pressure at that depth would have been strong enough to detonate the B43 bomb, when it was difficult to find its location. If the bomb was still intact, the likelihood of finding it was rare as very few ships could have dived to such depths. 5. In 1966: B-52 hit KC-135, 4 thermonuclear bombs exploded over Spain An American soldier inspects the materials after the plane crash. Photo: AP On January 17, 2016, a B-52 “flying fortress” was approaching an aircraft carrying KC-135 fuel to perform aerial refueling when a collision occurred. The incident sparked a fireball, killing the crew of KC-135 and three people on the B-52. The B-52 and four B28 thermonuclear bombs crashed into a small fishing house in Palomares, Spain. Three bombs were found in the first 24 hours after the accident. One ball landed safely while two had their conventional explosive parts detonated. The explosions ignited and dispersed the plutonium in the rockets, poisoning the air within two square kilometers. The fourth bomb seen by a fisherman fell into the sea. Despite the eyewitness accounts, it took the US Navy almost 100 days to locate and retrieve the weapon. 6. 1968: Falling the B-52, the weapon disappears under the ice Like the Palomares accident, on January 21, 1968, a crashed B-52 dropped four B28 bombs from the air. This time, it was bombed in Greenland. At least three were shattered. With most of the debris collected, investigators found they did not find any fragments of the fourth bomb. Then, they discovered a piece of ice with a black object identified the bomb’s parachute string. They speculate that in the early or secondary phase, the B28 started burning after the collision and thawed. The remnants of the bomb then plunged through the arctic waters and sank. This weapon is still missing, is said to be irrevocable. 7. 1968: The sinking of the USS Scorpion The USS Scorpion. Photo:; US Navy Nuclear attack submarine USS Scorpion was declared missing on 5/6/1968. The loss was especially difficult for the US Navy because the ship followed a Russian team just before it disappeared. At the time of her disappearance, Scorpion was carrying two Mark 45 anti-submarine torpedoes (ASTOR). The debris was not found until four months later. The Scorpion remains on the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean at a depth of 3,000 meters. The cause of the ship sinking has not been determined. Its torpedo compartment appears to be intact with two nuclear torpedoes in place. Retrieving torpedoes will be extremely difficult. Therefore, the US Navy will need to monitor radiation levels in the area. So far, there has been no sign of leakage from the submarine’s torpedoes or reactors.

Pole-21 increasingly asserted its place in the Russian military. (Source: Top War) Shield against potential hazards Pole-21 is resistant to high-precision weaponry and other enemy systems using the satellite navigation system. The mission of this combination is to jam and suppress signals from the navigation satellites. In addition, they can accurately detect the enemy’s coordinates, missiles, bombs, aircraft … and handle other assigned combat missions. The weapons complex consists of R-340RP signal reception poles, including the control equipment and interfering antennas, capable of suppressing radio signals at a minimum range of 25km. The combination is capable of suppressing signals from all current navigation systems. The R-340RP antenna stations are mounted on cell towers that are installed at a suitable height or mounted on car chassis with a basin module. Compatibility with various power sources guaranteed. Each pole consumes up to 600 watts of power. Communication between the composite’s components can be maintained through the radio. Therefore, during the installation process it is possible to use GSM antenna as a backup. Pole-21 can be deployed and installed in large numbers over a large area, depending on topography and topography. In favorable areas, a “dome” consisting of 100 antenna columns allows coverage over 22,500 square kilometers. Distribution of Pole-21 In August 2016, Russian media reported that the Pole-21 system was officially preparing to be put into service for the military. In November 2019, the Russian Ministry of Defense announced that Pole-21 had transferred to an electronic warfare unit from the Central Military Zone in charge. Shortly thereafter, in early December 2019, some sources said that the Ministry of Defense continued to deploy the Pole-21 system at base 201 of the armed forces in Tajikistan and operated in alarm mode. In January 2021, the Ministry of Defense announced that by the end of this year, the Central Military Region units would receive 10 additional Pole-21 complexes. These products will be delivered to deployment units in Urals and Siberia. Moreover, Russia also recently officially announced the Pole-21’s presence at the Tartus base in Syria. This system, which works in conjunction with other modern air defense systems, is used to counter potential raids and to prevent potential adversary attacks. In addition, experts from the 49th Army of the Southern Military Region used the Pole-21 combination in training activities. It is known that in the exercise, “Pole-21” mainly confronted the enemy drones. Future protection system The Russian Army Base 201 is the first unit to use this combination. In early January 2020, the system officially worked covering residential areas, armory and locations of important Russian air defense complexes. Through recorded reports, the use of Pole-21 combination in different exercises has brought many positive signals. These products are used independently, or in combination with other electronic warfare systems, completely convenient and effective. In October of last year, Central Military Region troops combined with the “Zhitel” jamming station succeeded in destroying UAV communications. In Tartus, with support from Pole-21, the Ratnik complex. -Kupol suppresses the signals for navigation and control channels. The recent drills in the Southern Military Region demonstrate the Pole-21 system’s capabilities to operate in the reconnaissance and attack lines of the combined armed army. Electronic warfare units act as part of the battalion-level tactical group and protect them from reconnaissance drones. The transfer of the Pole-21M serial electronic warfare system to the military has only started in mid-2019 and was received by subdivisions. It is known that the production and supply of these equipment will continue to develop, of which the Central Military Zone will receive 10 new complexes this year. In the past, the Pole-21 complex has confirmed their ability in trials, as well as their potential in the framework of various scale exercises. In particular its ability to interrupt enemy navigation, interrupt mission execution and ensure the protection of its facilities has been repeatedly demonstrated. It is easy to see that the Pole-21 unit, with all its proven advantages, deserves to be an excellent external signal suppression system, which completes the task perfectly. thanks to its high technical characteristics and mobility. In addition, the principle of preventing satellite positioning is consistent with the current development trends of the military and weapons. (According to Top War)

According to media reports, the Biden government may launch its first arms sales to Taiwan, providing M109A6 self-propelled howitzers to Taiwan, China. According to the “Global Times” quoted a Taiwan media report on April 20, the Taipei Office of the “American Institute in Taiwan” has notified the Taiwan side that the United States will announce the procedure for notifying the Congress of Taiwan’s procurement of the M109A6 self-propelled howitzer in the near future. The head of Taiwan’s defense department responded that the arms purchase case has been promoted for a long time, but has not received an official notification from the US government. If the arms sales to Taiwan are confirmed in the near future, then compared to the first batch of arms sales to Taiwan proposed by former U.S. President Trump half a year after taking office (June 2017), Biden’s footsteps are obviously a bit faster. The signal sparked outside discussion. Some experts said that this also indicates that the Biden administration is likely to play the “Taiwan card” more and more, and it is also responding to the demands of anti-China elements and military enterprises in the United States. According to CCTV military reports on the 21st, citing Taiwan media, senior officials of Taiwan’s defense department confirmed in Taiwan’s legislature on the 19th that Taiwan is seeking US approval to sell AGM-158 missiles. This is the first time that the Taiwan military has recently publicly confirmed that it is seeking to purchase air-launched long-range precision strike weapons from the United States. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China has repeatedly reiterated that the US arms sales to the Taiwan region seriously violated the “One China” principle and the three Sino-US joint communiqués, grossly interfered in China’s internal affairs, seriously undermined China’s sovereignty and security interests, and sent wrong statements to the “Taiwan independence” separatist forces. The signal seriously damages Sino-US relations and peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait. China firmly opposes this. The M109A6 self-propelled howitzer equipped by the US military. What are the considerations behind Biden’s first arms sales to Taiwan? Taiwan’s “United Daily News” reported on the 19th that the Taipei Office of the “American Institute in Taiwan” notified Taiwan in March, and the US Department of Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA) will shortly notify Taiwan on Taiwan’s procurement of the M109A6 self-propelled howitzer. Announcement of Congress procedures; and this year, Taiwan will negotiate agreements with the United States through multiple channels such as the “American Institute in Taiwan” Taipei Office and the Taipei Military Mission in the United States to discuss the content of the offer to jointly promote the case. It is understood that Taiwan plans to purchase 40 M109A6s. “This is also the first batch of arms sold by the Biden administration to Taiwan.” Taiwan’s land force plans to install them in batches from 2023 to 2025. Taiwan’s military decided to purchase M109A6 in 2019. Starting from 2020, it has set a budget of approximately NT$17.3 billion, because the main artillery equipment of Taiwan’s land-based artillery units has exceeded the age limit. According to relevant information released by the Taiwan region, Taiwan’s land armed forces are currently equipped with about 300 self-propelled howitzers. The models include M109A2, M109A5 and M110A2. The M109 series have a caliber of 155 mm and the M110 series are 203 mm self-propelled howitzers. “These are old-fashioned self-propelled artillery. The two M109s equipped in Taiwan use a 39-caliber 155mm artillery with a maximum range of only 30 kilometers and a low degree of automation.” Military expert Han Dong said, “At present, the world Advanced self-propelled howitzers have long been equipped with 52-caliber 155mm self-propelled howitzers, with a range generally exceeding 50 kilometers. They have autoloaders and new guided artillery shells, and have a high degree of automation. Taiwan’s self-propelled howitzers are already very backward.”

“Most of these self-propelled howitzers provided by the United States have been in service for more than 40 years, and some are still second-hand. The latest M109A5 also arrived in 1998, and the oldest M110A2 self-propelled howitzer has even been in service for more than 60 years and is an’antique’ equipment. “Han Dong said.

Taiwan’s “Defense Shutter” magazine once stated that Taiwan’s artillery has been ignored for a long time, and its main equipment is old. Even the relatively new M109 self-propelled artillery has been in service for more than 30 years. There are problems such as inconvenient maintenance, reduced integrity, and outdated performance. .

The M109A6 is an active self-propelled howitzer in the U.S. Army. Compared with the M109A5 artillery, the biggest difference is that the current mainstream 52-caliber 155mm artillery is used. The range has been increased. If the extended-range projectile is used, the range can reach 30 kilometers. The “Sword” precision-guided projectile has a range of up to 40 kilometers. In addition, the gun adopts a semi-automatic loading mechanism and a fire control system, and the degree of automation, rate of fire and firing accuracy have been further improved.

If the Biden administration conducts its first arms sales to Taiwan in the near future, the time will be earlier than that of former President Trump’s first arms sales to Taiwan. Jiang Chunliang, a researcher at the Academy of Military Sciences, believes that the arms sold to Taiwan this time are self-propelled artillery. Compared with some offensive weapons, the military stimulus is relatively small. It is an arms sale with more political significance than military significance, because the time has advanced. It shows that the Biden administration is likely to play the “Taiwan card” more and more. It can be said that the weapons are average and the provocations are not small.

“Biden’s first arms sales to Taiwan ahead of schedule are in response to the demands of domestic anti-China elements and military industrial enterprises, and it is also the implementation of the “National Security Strategy Interim Guidelines” released last month.” Jiang Chunliang told The Paper (www.thepaper.cn) ), “This is (intent) to tell the anti-China forces in the United States that the Biden administration will continue to play the’Taiwan card’ and pay more attention to the strategy of’using Taiwan to control China’ so that it can gain more chips.”

On April 7, the US guided missile destroyer “McCain” crossed the Taiwan Strait. Less than three months after Biden came to power, US warships have crossed the Taiwan Strait four times. The frequency and number of times are relatively rare.

Military expert Han Dong told The Paper that the 40 M109A6 self-propelled howitzers have limited firepower to Taiwan’s military, and the weapons that Taiwan military needs most to enhance air and sea dominance, such as long-range air-to-surface missiles, fifth-generation stealth fighters, stealth drones, Submarine and “Aegis” battleship. Without air supremacy, these land warfare weapons will all become the targets of fighters.

Regarding the US arms sales to Taiwan, China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs has repeatedly reiterated that US arms sales to Taiwan seriously violated the “One China” principle and the three Sino-US Joint Communiqués, especially the provisions of the August 17 Communiqué, which grossly interfered in China’s internal affairs. Serious damage to China’s sovereignty and security interests, sending wrong signals to the “Taiwan independence” separatist forces, and serious damage to Sino-US relations and peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait. China firmly opposes this. China urges the U.S. to abide by the one-China principle and the three Sino-U.S. joint communiqués, stop arms sales to Taiwan and US-Taiwan military ties, and immediately cancel the arms sales plan to Taiwan, so as not to cause damage to Sino-U.S. relations and peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait. Further damage.

AGM-158 missile

Taiwan seeks more offensive weapons

In addition to purchasing new self-propelled howitzers from the United States, Taiwan is also actively seeking long-range air-launched cruise missiles from the United States. The senior officials of Taiwan’s defense department confirmed that Taiwan is seeking US approval to sell the AGM-158 missile. All announced Taiwan-US military purchases are progressing normally.

This is the first time that the Taiwan military has recently publicly confirmed that it is seeking to purchase air-launched long-range precision strike weapons from the United States.

According to the “Voice of America” ​​report, AGM-158 is considered to be one of the most advanced air-launched cruise missiles in the world, with a range of 370 kilometers, developed and manufactured by Lockheed Martin. This missile is designed to destroy high-value, well-defense, fixed and mobile targets, and the carrier can launch attacks outside the opponent’s ground air defense system. AGM-158 also has a stealth capability and can fight around the clock, day and night. The models that can carry this missile include Taiwan’s existing F-16 fighters.

“This missile is one of the main weapons used by the U.S. military to strike high-value targets of its opponents. It will not be easily sold to the outside world. It is currently approved for sale to a few countries including Japan.” Military expert Han Dong pointed out, “The AGM-158 missile is the most worthwhile. The two places of concern are the long range, the extended range can even reach thousands of kilometers, and the stealth design, which has strong penetration capabilities, and the threat is still relatively large.”

“It is worth mentioning that the U.S. military has also developed the AGM-158C missile capable of dealing with large ships such as aircraft carriers and amphibious assault ships. This missile is an improved version of the U.S. extended-range missile AGM-158B with a range of more than 500 kilometers. The area obtains this kind of missile, the anti-ship capability will be greatly improved.” Han Dong said.

During the Trump era, a major trend in US arms sales to Taiwan was to provide more and more offensive weapons. In October last year, the US State Department approved the sale of weapons and equipment worth more than 1.8 billion US dollars to Taiwan, including the “Hamas” high-mobility rocket launcher system, the “Slam”-ER extended-range air-to-surface missile and the MS-110 reconnaissance pod. Wait.

The most concerned of these weapons for sale are the “Hamas” rocket launcher and the “Slam”-ER air-to-surface missile. The “Hamas” rocket launcher will be equipped with ATACMS ballistic missiles (Army Tactical Missile System). This is the first time that the United States sold the “Lance” ballistic missile to the Taiwan region in the 1970s and provided this weapon again after more than 40 years.

The “New York Times” of the United States pointed out in an earlier article that the most sensitive batch of arms sales to Taiwan is the “Slam”-ER air-to-surface missile, which is improved from the Harpoon anti-ship missile. Mounted on Taiwan’s F-16 fighter, it can strike land and sea targets 300 kilometers away, even after launching, the target can still be changed. Its precision strike capability was once rated as the smallest error among US naval weapons.

Before the AGM-158 “Jasm” air-to-surface cruise missile was equipped with the U.S. Navy on a large scale, the “Slam”-ER was the main weapon of the U.S. Navy’s off-zone strike, with the advantages of long range and high accuracy. A few countries such as South Korea and Turkey have purchased the missile, and they all regard the missile as a “strategic-level” strike weapon.

In a new study published in the journal Acta Astronautica, scientists said, in the future, a dangerous asteroid will plunge itself and collide with Earth. Relatively, an asteroid does not need to be too large to cause severe destruction. One of the simulations in this study is the asteroid 300 meters (1,000 feet) in diameter, the size of six Olympic swimming pools. This is not a large asteroid, but it would still destroy an area of ​​a large city with just the initial impact. An asteroid of this size is possible; as of October 2020, scientists have discovered 9,336 near-Earth object / asteroids (NEO / NEA) that are larger than 140 meters in diameter. Among them, scientists have classified 2,122 as potentially hazardous objects (PHO). So the risks here are not astronomically low – they are more likely to fall to Earth. Scientists say NASA has found that nuclear weapons are “10 to 100 times more effective” in moving asteroids out of a collision course with Earth than alternatives. Non-nuclear, thanks to the much higher energy of fission materials than conventional materials. This energy will apply the asteroid / asteroid an appropriate force to push the asteroids / meteors closer to Earth out of their original orbit. Detonating nuclear weapons to prevent an asteroid / asteroid plunge into Earth is considered optimal and feasible; Source: popularmechanics.com There are two ways to “treat” an asteroid / meteor – disruption or deflection it. In their research, the scientists ran computer simulations to see how it could dislodge the asteroid 300 meters from its flight path toward Earth. Shattering was Armageddon’s solution – hitting the asteroid directly to shatter it into much less damaging pieces. The other way – deflector, is a more “elegant” solution, according to the researchers. This only involves redirecting the entire asteroid so that it doesn’t hit Earth, eliminating the remaining variable left behind by a broken asteroid – debris. When detonating a nucleus near an asteroid, what happens is quite simple – detonating a nuclear device above an asteroid irradiates a certain surface area. Material near the surface melted almost immediately. This small amount of superheated matter then expands out of the asteroid as “blown”, creating a pressure wave in the remaining asteroid. A rocket-like emission pulse is transmitted and the asteroid’s initial velocity is altered, deflecting the asteroid. Nuclear detonation in simulations to change the intensity of its released neutron energy, the scientists found, up to 70% of the deflector action. So if we do this in the real world, the nuclear device will liquefy part of the asteroid’s surface, creating a backlash that alters the asteroid’s orbit. It must be a nuclear device that releases neutrons, not an X-ray emitter, to be as efficient as possible, the researchers said. And while we hope we never have to use those, it’s definitely better if we know in advance that we can.

Loitering munition (LM) or suicide drones (suicide / kamikaze drones) are weapons systems that hover around to find a target and attack when the target is located. . LM has the advantages of tactical and tactical features, simplicity in production and operation, increasing survivability in combat as well as the ability to destroy targets. It also allows for more selective targeting and actual strike missions can be canceled, revolutionizing the way war is waged in volatile regions of the world. Lancet is equipped with an electric motor with a propeller in the tail and optoelectronic unit in the nose; Source: topwar.ru The LM can be as simple as a drone (UAV) and can even be built from commercial drones, with weapons attached, sent on a suicide mission. in the air for a long period of time before an attack, which simplifies reconnaissance and assault. It allows to promptly attack hidden targets in a short time without having to use expensive weapons (such as rockets, self-propelled guns using smart bullets …). Low cost creates another characteristic advantage that simplifies the organization of large-scale raids aimed at overwhelming enemy air defenses. LMs are made more complex in terms of flight and control capabilities, warhead size and design, body sensors … Some LMs may return and be recalled by the operator if they are not. used in the attack and has enough fuel left. LM first appeared in the 1980s, was used as the Suppression of Enemy Air Defenses (SEAD) against surface-to-air missiles (SAM), and was used by the military in several countries. Entering service in the 1990s. Starting in the 2000s, the LM has been developed and has a construction suitable for wearing in a backpack for additional missions, from long range attacks and fire support. power to short-range, tactical battlefield systems. Lancet – a formidable Russian mobile suicide weapon In fact, the British were the first to come to terms with the LM weapon, but today Russia, Israel and the US are leading the way. Not long ago, the Zala Aero company of Kalashnikov Group (Russia) presented the first suicide weapon “Lancet” (“Ланцет”) – an unmanned aerial vehicle capable of reconnaissance and attack. Assigned public target, capable of completely changing combat operations in the near future. The company’s new product Zala Aero was demonstrated for the first time at the Army-Technical Forum-2019. Each combination includes a control panel providing the ability to receive and process data, as well as transmit commands to the suicide weapon. The Lancet is fabricated in a longitudinal scheme with two X-shaped wing combinations used to reduce the size of the bearing plane while maintaining the required lift; at the same time, it is possible to increase the stiffness of the structure and increase the flight speed. As a rule, Israel’s most famous LM systems built according to the classic airplane scheme have one fundamental drawback: LMs maneuver well along one axis and not maneuver along the other – which reduces the effect of an attack on a moving target. The X-shaped wing map adheres to aerodynamic surfaces, which are characteristic of missiles, overcoming this weakness. Lancet is designed with the optoelectronic unit in the nose and the electric motor connected to the propeller propeller at the tail; Widely used plastic and synthetic materials. Unlike foreign models, Lancet uses two X-shaped wings combinations; Source: topwar.ru The optical device unit has a channel that transmits the signal to the operator console, does not lose video communication with the operator until it is in direct contact with the target. This UAV is also equipped with its own navigation system capable of identifying coordinates from a variety of sources and objects. Flight and targeting can be performed under the control of the operator and independently, or a combination of the two. Experts will track it from the ground through the Russian GLONASS satellite navigation system or its own command-control system. The “Lancet-1” and “Lancet-3” models agreed on the body frame and internal system components, catapulted, capable of reaching speeds of 80-130 km / h. According to the manufacturer, they do not need additional operating facilities on the ground but can locate, communicate, attack targets within a radius of 40 km. When the UAV flies to an altitude of 5 km, it can turn off the main engine but continue to hover, mimicking the behavior of the birds, doing the mission for an additional 3 km at lower altitudes. After that, the UAV restarted the engine and flew again to a height of 5 km. With those unique features, the UAV’s field of view is increased to 1,000 km, far exceeding its counterparts. Lancet-1 has a takeoff weight of 5 kg, is equipped with a 1 kg fragmentation warhead, Lancet-3 weighs 12 kg, carries a 3 kg warhead, and both uses a contact detonator. In terms of power, the warheads of these two LMs are equivalent to medium-sized artillery shells. If the previous generation of Lancet – “Kub” (“Куб”) attacks the target according to specific coordinates, like most foreign UAVs, Lancet does not need any satellite positioning and the accuracy of astonishing hit. What makes this special is that in the event of a loss of contact with the control center, Lancet will switch to automatic target and attack mode. So, even with interference by the enemy, Lancet can still complete the mission. LM can be launched into the air both from the ground and from aircraft carriers at sea, and ships. Lancet chief architect Alexander Zakharov calls these UAVs “aerators” (“воздушноe минированиe”) as the world’s first system designed to defend against UAVs, capable of “drafting” in the air. medium for tens of hours and capable of shooting down UAVs moving at speeds below 300 km / h. Lancet’s design gives it many features and advantages over foreign models; Source: topwar.ru According to the Chief Architect, this “gas” system is being tested, to test the accuracy and combatability of Lancet in real combat conditions against static and dynamic targets; at the moment, it has already killed 100% of its target. According to Zvezda TV, from 2020 until now, both the Russian and Syrian troops have used Lancet to conduct dozens of high-precision attacks on terrorist groups in northeastern Syria. The main feature the designers are working on to improve on is stealth, including “acoustical stealth”, and here thanks to the use of electric motors, the Lancet is unmatched. In addition, the electric motor is more reliable, lighter, more compact, and cheaper. It is believed that laser air defense systems that can burn materials will be highly effective in the fight against drones. Zala Aero has developed new methods of protecting Lancet against such threats – integrating anti-laser protection, but without disclosing details. In the past few years, in the field of reconnaissance and attack, UAVs have made great progress, and a major and important modernization of drones of the Russian armed forces is expected. waiting to take place in the near future. Promising LM models will allow Air Force – Space forces and other structures to acquire fundamentally new capabilities and increase their potential, which will be able to close the gap with major powers. other. However, it takes time, effort and money./.

It may not be so simple behind Japan’s discharge of nuclear sewage into the sea. Given that the United States has clearly stated that it supports and appreciates Japan’s relevant actions, we must consider that the United States and Japan are very likely to collude in plotting earth-shattering conspiracies to harm the people of the world and Eastern countries. The U.S.’s criminal activities behind the evil in Japan must also counteract the wrong words and actions of the U.S. while fighting the Japanese devil. Only in this way can the effect of curing the symptoms and the root cause be achieved to the greatest extent.

The United States’ support for Japan’s poisoning around China and Russia is indeed a ruthless move. It quietly launched a nuclear pollution war against China, Russia, North Korea and other countries, regardless of the environmental interests of South Korea, the Philippines, including Australia, Canada, and US allies in the Pacific Rim. It’s crazy to even ignore the life and death of Americans. The United States’ previous support thanks to Japan’s performance of poisoning has in fact corroborated the madness of the American ruling class. At this time, the American people, who are deeply caught in the epidemic and in the riots of division, seem to be far from awakening, and are questioning and fighting for their rights to live well.

In view of the fact that the United States has clearly stated that it supports and appreciates Japan’s relevant actions, we must consider that the United States and Japan are very likely to collude in plotting shocking conspiracies to entrap the people of the world and Eastern countries. At the same time, the devil must counteract the wrong words and actions of the United States, so as to maximize the effect of curing the symptoms and curing the root cause.

It is necessary to realize that Japan’s nuclear waste discharge is actually launching a nuclear war against the surrounding countries in the Pacific. China, Russia, North Korea and the United States will be the main victims of Japan’s nuclear pollution. We must actually regard it as nuclear. Of course, there are reasons to consider the use of nuclear war to contain the acts of war. As we all know, Japan can safely treat Fukushima nuclear waste water by expanding its water storage tanks. In addition, Japan is not the only country in the world that has ever experienced a nuclear accident. However, the countries involved in the accident have effectively dealt with them on their own soils, and have not led to the large-scale spread of nuclear pollution to the world. However, Japan has dragged the Pacific countries and even the world to bear it. The country’s technological backwardness has led to the consequences of a nuclear accident, which is very sinister and vicious. In addition to the public support of the United States, the United States and Japan have almost settled their conspiracy in discharging nuclear waste water. Of course, this is very dangerous for our country.

The United States has always wanted to pull Japan into the anti-China camp. Japan had previously relied heavily on China for its economy and did not explicitly promise the United States to jointly oppose China. After the “2+2” talks between the United States and Japan, they first hyped up the Diaoyu Islands topic, and then jointly hyped up the Taiwan issue. China’s strong counterattack was met. The Chinese Coast Guard and Air Force did not eat the United States and Japan, and routinely cruised to the Diaoyu Islands. As soon as they were stunned back, the United States and Japan subsequently expanded their efforts to discharge nuclear waste water into the sea. It is reported that Japan chose a location close to China for its nuclear waste water discharge. This is a flagrant environmental nuclear war against China. Japan and the United States may have declared war against China in private through this move, and China should regard it as an act of war, or even an act of conducting a nuclear war against China. On this basis, Japan is equivalent to having used nuclear weapons against China for the first time and threatening the survival and safety of the Chinese nation. Japanese nuclear waste water will pollute the seas of China. Polluting the sea water around China will pollute China’s inland rivers and land. The people of our country will Trapped in this nuclear crisis and nuclear disaster, incidents that caused Chinese casualties due to Japan’s dumping of nuclear waste water are likely to be staged in the future. Based on this, we have reasons to counterattack Japan in various dimensions, and the use of nuclear means should not be ruled out here. The destructive effect of Japan’s nuclear waste water is equivalent to nuclear weapons, and its actions are endangering the security of China and the region and even the world, and the welfare of human beings. As a responsible major country, China is also a nuclear power. In order to maintain the security and stability of China, the region and the world, it should be retained. To adopt nuclear containment against Japan that has already used nuclear waste water weapons. If Japan still insists on using nuclear waste water to entrap mankind, ending Japan’s nuclear crimes with nuclear weapons is also in line with China’s nuclear policy. Therefore, Japan should not be unscrupulous. For nuclear damage, we can calculate the old and new accounts together with Japan.

Earlier, there was news that hydrogen bombs could be used to treat Japan’s nuclear wastewater. When the hydrogen bombs are blasted in Japan, Japan’s nuclear wastewater, including nuclear pollution, will be eliminated by this more powerful nuclear method, and there is no need to discharge nuclear wastewater into the sea. Now, do you want to try in Japan?

A few years before the United States, some media were hyping that once the Fukushima nuclear waste water in Japan was discharged to the sea, according to the so-called Pacific circulation, the nuclear waste water would mainly circulate in the large circle from the first island chain to the west coast of the United States and Canada. China, the Korean Peninsula, and the Russian Far East west of the Japanese archipelago are not within the scope of the above-mentioned nuclear pollution. This is ridiculous and easily paralyzes the people of China, Russia and North Korea. Since the ocean circulation is recognized, and the ocean is a global unity, not to mention the seas on the east and west sides of the first island chain that are relatively close. After the nuclear waste water dumped in Fukushima, these two sea areas must be seriously polluted.

Japan reached a high degree of agreement on the issue of Japan’s nuclear sewage discharge. There must be a conspiracy behind it. Because of the direct outbreak of nuclear war, the United States has no way out. The United States’ bases in the Asia-Pacific region, including the United States, don’t even want to stay. They are more insidious. For nuclear strikes against other countries, it is very likely that this time the United States and Japan will jointly select Fukushima nuclear waste water, a nuclear attack that is highly lethal and does not appear in the form of weapons to destroy the environment and economic lifeline of neighboring countries. The economy has suffered severe economic and environmental losses, while the large ones have plunged the people of the region into an existential crisis. You know, the main hostile countries of the United States and Japan are concentrated in the Western Pacific. Once nuclear waste water is discharged to this area, China, Russia, North Korea, South Korea, and Taiwan will all be severely harmed. This may be exactly what the United States and Japan want to see. of. This may be why the U.S. and Japan are facing nuclear weapons and detoxification in the Western Pacific.

“The Air Force had a step back in progress with its supersonic missile program when the first test with a propulsion failed. The B-52H bomber took off on April 5 to launch the prototype AGM-183A, but the test bullet could not complete the launch procedure and was safely hung on the plane until it reached the Edwards base ” . Missile AGM-183A onboard B-52H aircraft. The test was to test the performance of the propulsion engine, as well as the detachability of the supersonic surfacing vehicle after the rocket engine stopped working. The warhead is designed to self-crumble shortly after being separated from the engine, helping to minimize the no-fly zone for ships and aircraft. The US Air Force has conducted seven test flights with the missile model AGM-183A to collect positioning data and flight parameters, test the ability to integrate missiles onto the B-52H launch platform and build procedures. commissioned for the first test shot. The AGM-183A hypersonic missile is also known as the “Aircraft Launched Rapid Reaction Weapon” (ARRW). This is one of the supersonic missile programs being developed for the US Air Force to close the gap in this field with Russian opponents. Especially according to the US Air Force’s statement, the AGM-183A possesses many advantages over the hypersonic missile Kinzhal of the Russian Air Force. The US side said that the parameters on Kinzhal of Russia are equivalent to the AGM-48 Skybolt (developed 60 years ago) of the US and far behind the current AGM-183A. The AGM-183A is superior to the Kh-47M2 Kinzhal in that it does not require the launcher to climb to very high altitudes and maintain Mach 2 as the Kinzhal’s speed and still easily reach design specifications. In particular, according to the US Department of Defense procurement advisor Will Roper, the AGM-183A has an impressive speed when it can reach a maximum of nearly Mach 20. It can be seen that the AGM-183A has a much faster speed than the Kinzhal when the Russian missile reaches just above Mach 10. Although not yet launched, but with the aforementioned parameters, the AGM-183A deserves to be considered a rival to Russia’s supersonic weapons today. But for the AGM-183A to enter service, it may take the Americans a long time. Meanwhile, Russia is ready to equip Kinzhal after successive trials of the weapon.

Specifically, speaking before the meeting of the Defense Sub-Committee of the European Parliament in Brussels – Belgium, Andrii Taran noted that he could not rule out the possibility that Russian forces in Crimea could “take provocative actions. military promotion “in 2021.

Earlier, Mr Taran said “Russian provocations” could exacerbate conflicts in the Donbass region of eastern Ukraine bordering Russia. Taran revealed that Russia concentrates 110,000 troops on the Ukrainian border.

According to Reuters, any decision by Russia to move nuclear weapons to Crimea will be a bad development in East-West tensions. That gesture would increase tensions for a newly renewed arms control treaty between the US and Russia.

Concerning developments, in a statement from the Ukrainian army, the Ukrainian armed forces have been rehearsing to increase their ability to respond to a tank and infantry attack near the Crimea border on April 14. The drills come the day after US President Joe Biden phoned Russian President Vladimir Putin to discuss Russia’s military build-up near eastern Ukraine and in Crimea.

On the Russian side, on April 14, the Russian navy began exercises in the Black Sea with exercises to fire targets on the ground and in the air. This exercise is to test combat readiness, readiness to react to threats from NATO. As planned, the rehearsal would end after 2 weeks.

Reuters on 14/4 said, a State Department spokesman revealed, the Biden administration has announced to Congress that they are promoting plans to sell more than 23 billion weapons to the Emirate United (UAE), including advanced F-35 fighter jets.

The US government will continue to promote the plan to sell weapons to the UAE, the spokesman said. “We are continuing to elaborate on the use of these weapons and have consulted with UAE officials.”

According to reports, the plan to sell weapons to the Gulf nation was finalized before Mr. Trump left office. Before that, Mr. Biden suspended this plan to re-examine the agreement.

In the months leading up to the end of its term, the Trump administration approved numerous arms sales contracts worth tens of billions of dollars, including plans to sell 50 F-35 fighters to the UAE. .

The report mentions that some US lawmakers have criticized the UAE’s participation in the Yemen war, believing the Yemen conflict has become one of the most severe humanitarian disasters in the world. They fear that the arms sales may violate previous US commitments to secure Israel’s military superiority in the region.

In December 2020, the US Senate tried to prevent the US from selling F-35 fighter jets to the UAE, but ultimately failed due to differing stances between the parties. On January 20, 2021, just about an hour before Mr. Biden took office as US President, Mr. Trump quickly completed the sale of this large-scale weapon to the UAE.

However, at the end of January 2021, the Biden administration announced that it would re-evaluate the project, the UAE said it expected the results of the evaluation and welcomed the two sides to work together to alleviate tensions and re-start. phone area.

A spokesman for the US State Department on April 13 said that if the plan can be carried out on schedule, it is expected that weapons and equipment will be delivered to the UAE in 2025 or later.

It is known that the Trump administration wants to promote the plan to sell weapons to the UAE to help it deter potential threats from Iran. Trump’s real intention is to put Mr. Biden in a “difficult position” in the Middle East, because this plan will inevitably encounter a strong reaction from Israel, because the UAE’s F-35 will imbalance. balance of military power in the Middle East.

Along with that, Mr. Biden plans to return to nuclear negotiations with Iran, the fact that Mr. Trump pushed the plan to sell the F-35 to the UAE will make Tehran “angry” and difficult to accept again if the US do not cancel this plan.

However, the UAE side is showing little “interest” with the US F-35. Recently, the UAE has high expectations about the purchase of stealth fighter F-35 Lightning II, but due to strong opposition from Israel and the attitude of “considerations” of the US, Dubai has warned that it will change to buy Russian weapons if your requirements are not met.

Experts said that, if the Biden administration continues to “consider” this contract, it may bring the UAE back to negotiate with Moscow on the purchase of Russian fighters. Most likely buys 4.5 generation multi-purpose fighter Su-35.

“The UAE expressed extreme dissatisfaction with Washington’s actions and will most likely refuse to negotiate further with the US on the supply of these weapons due to Washington’s constantly changing position, buying a batch of Su. Russian -35 with the same large budget is quite obvious, even Su-57 fighter jets are considered, “the Russian press said.

It is still unclear exactly what the recent actions of US President Joe Biden are, since since after taking office, Mr. Biden’s policy in the Middle East can be said to be very fuzzy, and focused. into the Europe, Indo-Pacific region.

Some Russian experts believe that Biden’s move may be to prevent Russia from further strengthening its influence in the Middle East through arms exports to the region.

It is still too early to talk about the prospect of the UAE buying Russian weapons, as the US is still willing to impose sanctions under the CAATSA Act on the UAE, not to mention that they can offer upgraded versions. of the F-15 and the F-16 feature the Su-35 equivalent as an alternative.

The modern world is being “digitized” at a rapid rate. Almost every service, every industry, from finance, industrial enterprises, … to the armed forces, is already networked at one level or another. In the “smart home” with TVs, refrigerators, vacuum cleaners, washing machines, microwave ovens …, and even smart light bulbs are becoming common; On the street, there were the first cars with autonomous driving systems.

Such devices are expected to make people’s lives easier, but certainly these technologies will also be applied in other areas as well. While digital systems and services make the quality of human life much better, in theory all digital systems can be hacked – which is already in practice. positive.

Computer virus

Theoretical basis for the development of the “computer virus” was formed almost simultaneously with the emergence of the computer itself in the mid-20th century. In 1961, engineers Viktor Vysotsky, Doug McIlroy and Robert Morris of the Room Bell’s telephone experiment had developed programs that could make copies of themselves – the first viruses. They are created in the form of a game that engineers call “Darwin”, the purpose of which is to send bots to friends to see which will destroy more of the competitors’ programs and create more copies of itself to fill someone else’s computer.

Cyber ​​weapons are said to be equally complex and are weapons of mass destruction; Source: topwar.ru

In 1981, Virus 1,2,3 and Elk Cloner appeared on Apple II personal computers; a few years later, the first anti-virus programs appeared. The word “computer virus” in fact includes many types of malware: worms, hijackers (rootkits), spyware, zombies, adware, virus blocking (winlock), Trojan viruses (trojans) and their combination. If the first viruses are often written for entertainment, over time they begin to be “commercialized” – to steal personal and financial data, disrupt device operations, encrypt the data. for the purpose of blackmail …

With the advent of electronic money, computer viruses received a new function – bringing the user’s computer “as a slave” to mining cryptocurrency, forming a huge network of computers. botnet infection (before that, botnet also existed, such as to send spam mail or DDoS attack). Opportunities like this cannot help but make the military and intelligence agencies in general with missions – steal something, destroy something …, care.

Computer virus – a strategic weapon

On June 17, 2010, for the first time in history, the win32 / Stuxnet virus – a computer worm that infects not only computers running the Microsoft Windows operating system, but also industrial systems that control the processes. automatic production, detected. This worm can be used as a means of gathering unauthorized data (spying) and sabotaging automated process control systems (APCS) of industrial enterprises, power plants, boilers, etc.

According to cybersecurity experts, this virus is the most complex software product, developed by a professional team of dozens of experts. In terms of complexity, it can be compared to a Tomahawk cruise missile, and is designed for cyber operations. The Stuxnet virus has damaged some uranium enrichment centrifuges, slowing down Iran’s nuclear program. Intelligence agencies of Israel and the US are suspected of developing the Stuxnet virus.

Industrial facilities, infrastructure, services … all can be targets of cyber weapons; Source: topwar.ru

Later, other computer viruses were discovered, with a degree of complexity similar to that of win32 / Stuxnet (most suspected of being an Israeli / US product), such as: Duqu, designed to collect confidential data in a confidential manner; Wiper (late April 2012), destroyed all information on some of the servers of one of the largest oil companies in Iran and completely paralyzed its work for a few days; Flame, a spy virus, is believed to be developed specifically for attacks on Iran’s computer infrastructure (can identify mobile devices with Bluetooth module, track location, stealing confidential information and eavesdropping on conversations); Gauss, aimed at stealing financial information: e-mail, passwords, bank account data, cookies, as well as system configuration data; Maadi (suspected of Iran) – can collect information, remotely change computer parameters, record audio and transmit it to remote users …

Application

In the Middle East, for example, the largest producer of liquid natural gas (LNG), has an interest that seriously conflicts with the interests of another country. The Middle East country has a network of oil and gas pipelines, LNG production lines and a fleet of Q-Flex and Q-Max tankers designed to transport LNG and has a military base of the third country. three are on its territory. An armed attack directly on a Middle Eastern country could do more harm than good. Then, the solution might be the use of cyber weapons.

Modern oil and container ships are becoming more and more automated; No less automation is used in LNG plants. Therefore, specialized malware is loaded into the control systems of the Q-Flex and Q-Max tankers, or their LPG storage systems, theoretically permissible at a certain time ( or on an external command, if there is a network connection) creates an artificial accident that completely or partially destroys selected tanks / tanks. It is very likely that flaws in the LNG production process lead to neutralization, including potentially destroying the plant.

Cyber ​​weapons can easily have the same effects as the recent Suez Canal clogging; Source: topwar.ru

An explosion of an LNG carrier due to an accident at the entrance to a port or the failure of the LNG storage device can not only result in damage to the vessel itself, but also damage to coastal infrastructure. The goals could therefore be: undermine the energy supplier’s reputation, with the possibility of consumers reorienting the natural gas market of another country; increasing prices for world energy sources, helping to generate more revenue for the national budget; undermining political activity and interfering in the internal affairs of other countries in the region, due to a decrease in the financial capacity of the country in question.

Depending on the economic damage inflicted, a complete shift in ruling elites could occur, as well as a limited conflict between that state and its neighbors, who may want to take advantage of neighboring countries’ weaknesses to change the balance of power in the region. The crux of this activity is secrecy, so that there is no direct blame without clear evidence. The United States has repeatedly been accused of conducting hostile operations against even its most staunchest allies.

Another option for using cyber weapons has been suggested by a recent incident. A giant ship – an oil tanker or a container ship, passing through a narrow canal, suddenly the control system gives out a series of commands to dramatically change the direction and speed of movement, resulting in the ship spinning break and completely block the channel. It can even be flipped, making it extremely time-consuming and costly to rescue it. The Evergreen Group’s container ship blocking the Suez Canal shows how congestion of shipping arteries affects the global economy. It is especially effective if such incidents occur simultaneously on several channels.

Or most recently, Iran is accusing Israel of terrorizing its Natanz nuclear base network … In the absence of a clear trace of the culprit, it would be extremely difficult to establish – anyone can also be blamed for this. Therefore, the development of industrial-scale cyber weapons is considered to be a top priority. Information technology along with nanotechnology and biotechnology are the cornerstones of dominance in the 21st century, but the development of cyber weapons is much cheaper than the development of promising nano biotechnology. and conventional modern weapons ./.

The Joe Biden administration notified the US Congress of its decision to sell a $ 23.37 billion arms shipment to the United Arab Emirates (UAE), US congressional officials said on Monday. April 13.

The deal includes 50 F-35 stealth fighters, 18 MQ-9B armed drones (UAVs), and air-to-air and surface-to-surface missiles.

A State Department spokesperson said the Biden administration would execute the deal while “continuing a detailed assessment and consultation with UAE officials” on how the weapons were used.

The initial negotiated terms indicated that the UAE could receive the first F-35 by 2027.

The Biden administration in late January suspended a series of arms sales initiated under former President Donald Trump, including a contract of more than $ 23 billion with the UAE to review and demonstrate a commitment to “transparency. and good governance “.

The arms deal with the UAE has been opposed by many bipartisan lawmakers, on the grounds that they could be used in the war in Yemen, the world’s worst humanitarian crisis.

The US Senate last year tried to block the deal but failed.

The decision also made the UAE the first Arab country and the second Middle East country to own the F-35 after Israel. Israeli officials have repeatedly expressed concerns about the possibility of the US selling the F-35 stealth fighter to Arab countries, saying it would affect the balance of military power in the region.

However, Tel Aviv expressed no objection to the deal passed by the Biden administration.

The F-35 is the fifth generation stealth fighter in the United States, along with the F-22 they are the only fifth generation aircraft to enter service.

Representatives of Russia, China, and Japan are still in the experimental and final stage.

Despite its reputation, training tests show that the F-35s are formidable fighters and have excellent combat prowess.

Against famous fourth-stance fighters such as the US F-15, French Rafale and European Typhoon, the F-35 often wins overwhelming. Currently the F-35 has been produced in numbers in the thousands. with all three versions A, B, C.

The F-35 was developed from the X-35 under the Joint Attack Fighter Project (JSF), which is a single-seat fighter, capable of stealth, multipurpose, real missions include: air support, tactical bombing, and air-to-air combat.

The F-35 was designed and built by an aerospace industrial complex led by Lockheed Martin with other members BAE Systems and Northrop Grumman.

The F-35 made its maiden flight on December 15, 2006, making it the second stealth fighter in the world.

In terms of specifications, the F-35 has a length of 15.67m; wingspan 10.7m; 4.33m height; wing surface area 42.7m2; unladen weight 13,200kg; loaded weight 22,470m2; the largest take-off weight 31,800kg.

The F-35 can reach a maximum speed of 1,930 km / h; Maximum flight range of 2,200km; combat radius of 1,100km; Wing lift 526 kg / m2.

In terms of weaponry, the F-35 fighter has 1 GAU-12 / U 25mm cannon mounted in the F-35A body with 180 rounds or mounted outside the wings as on the F-35B and F-35C versions with 220 bullets.

The aircraft can carry up to 3.5 tons of weapons in stealth mode, while in “monster” mode the F-35 can carry up to 10 tons of weapons including air-to-air, land-to-air and anti-aircraft missiles. ship to bombs.

In addition, it also owns a state-of-the-art electronic warfare system, helping to gain advantage over opponents.

The F-35 has had an impressive performance in Afghanistan and Syria, the fighter’s effectiveness in combat has somewhat defeated but earlier doubts about its strength.

Currently, the US continues to increase capacity of F-35 factories to hand over to customers.

As reported by TASS, the Russian Defense Industry Complex has begun development of the new generation Kedr intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) system. The project is currently in the process of outlining the plan and the actual development process is expected to be implemented by the end of 2023. This project has an important role in the field of Russian intercontinental missiles.

Russia possesses a variety of ground-launched strategic missiles

The Russian military currently deploys about 310 strategic land-based missiles, capable of carrying 1,189 nuclear warheads. This is much less than the 400 U.S. missiles, but the number of nuclear warheads carried is 1.5 times that of U.S. missiles.

Overall, the Russian Army possesses a variety of surface-to-surface strategic missiles, which are currently in the upgraded stage, in the future the number of samples will be reduced further toward comprehensive modernization.

The active land strategic forces of the Russian Army consist mainly of the following three divisions:

Liquid-fueled intercontinental ballistic missile: The representative of this line is the Satan intercontinental ballistic missile. It was a heavy intercontinental ballistic missile that entered service in the late 1980s, with a total of 46, deployed at Dombarovsky and Uzhur missile bases.

The missile has a range of 11,000 km, a flight weight of about 211 tons, an attack accuracy of about 400 m, can carry 10 guided nuclear warheads, which is Russia’s most powerful strategic missile.

However, due to its long service life, it has now begun to retire. The successor missile is the Sarmat intercontinental ballistic missile, which has a range of 18,000 km, a flight weight of about 208 tons.

In addition to carrying a guided nuclear warhead, it can also carry the Avangard supersonic missile as the first payload, which further improves the attack performance of the missile. In the future, the Sarmat intercontinental ballistic missile will completely replace the Satan intercontinental ballistic missile.

Intercontinental missiles use solid engines. Currently the main equipment of the Russian military is the Topol-M intercontinental ballistic missile, which has been deployed since 2012, with a total of 78. On that basis, Russia continued to launch Yars intercontinental ballistic missiles, mainly improving the warhead design, increasing the number of guided nuclear warheads and penetrating equipment.

Both have a range of about 10,000 to 12,000 km, a flight weight of 47 to 49 tons. They can be deployed in both fixed and mobile launch wells. Currently, 155 Yars intercontinental ballistic missiles have been commissioned and have been deployed in combination with topol-M intercontinental ballistic missiles.

Supersonic missile. Russia attaches great importance to the development of supersonic weapons. In March 2018, President Putin unveiled the Avangard supersonic missile. The missile was successfully tested on December 26 of that year and has been deployed since 2019. The missile, which has an atmospheric Mach 20 flight speed and a range of more than 10,000 km, is currently deployed at the Dombarovsky missile base, in the future it will be equipped with at least two missile regiments.

Outstanding development characteristics

Russia’s surface-to-surface strategic missiles have strong reserves and large-scale equipment, playing an important deterrent role in early warning counterattacks and over-the-top strikes. The general development characteristics of the missile are as follows:

In terms of missile performance, the focus is on improving penetrating capabilities and survivability. With accelerating the deployment of U.S. missile defense systems globally, Russia attaches great importance to improving the penetrating capabilities of strategic surface-to-surface missiles.

The Avangard supersonic missile deployed at the end of 2019 has a maximum flight speed of Mach 20. The Russian military claims that it can penetrate any missile defense system in the world. In the future, intercontinental missiles such as sarmat will be equipped with such supersonic warheads to improve intercontinental performance.

In terms of technological development, follow the development roadmap of both solid and liquid bodies. Russia’s liquid missile technology has developed complete, its technical performance and reliability stand at the top of the world. The Satan intercontinental ballistic missile has been using the technology for more than 30 years and is an “ace” weapon to deter the West. In the future, the Sarmat intercontinental ballistic missile will serve as a replacement model.

In addition, Russia insists it will develop the name Solid intercontinental fire with strong mandability and ease of operation, and has achieved technological breakthroughs. The solid intercontinental ballistic missile, represented by Yars, can carry four guided warheads and penetrating equipment, the number of missiles deployed has reached more than 150, which has closed the gap with the US to a certain extent.

In terms of implementation, Russia follows the path of development combining fixed and mobile. Beginning in the 1990s, Russia has focused on the development and deployment of mobile strategic missiles, and has repeatedly launched intercontinental ballistic missiles such as Topol-M and Yars.

According to the latest figures, Russia has 180 mobile strategic missiles, accounting for 45% of the total missiles, which is the highest rate in recent years; fixed-launch strategic missiles have about 130, accounting for 55%. In the future, this ratio will be maintained in order to maintain the mutual complementary capabilities of the two implementation methods.

A look at kedr’s next-generation strategic missile

According to Russian media, the new generation of Kedr strategic missiles is in the process of drafting the plan. Analysts say Kedr uses solid fuel and is believed to be able to become a “ballistic missile at full speed”, capable of replacing the Yars missile system by 2030.

This project is part of the process of modernizing the strategic weapons of the Russian Strategic Missile Force. Similar to the previous generation, the new systems will be deployed in two models of mobile launchers and ground bunkers.

Russia is currently equipped with five types of surface-to-surface strategic missiles, which has put enormous pressure on logistics maintenance and combat command. Therefore, Russia wishes to accelerate kedr development so that there are many models ready to replace. Notably, the Kedr missile will most likely use the Pioneer supersonic missile, as its warhead to enhance its deterrence capabilities.

In addition, Russia intends to apply artificial intelligence technology to nuclear command, control and communication systems through the Kedr strategic missile project to accelerate decision-making procedures, improve the overall reliability and safety of the system, in order to achieve greater efficiency when intercepted by missile defense systems.
