He stated that the Air Force presently has no plans to pursue future procurement of the weapon, which is referred to ...

New hypersonic missile fails to launch during Air Force test flight

April 15, 2021 -

Because of the ARRW booster's failure, the B-52H Stratofortress carrying it returned to Edwards Air Force Base in California with the missile still attached.

The ARRW system is designed to launch in mid-air from beneath the wing of a carrier plane. However, the April 5 setback meant that additional work will be needed to get the new weapon up to speed.

"While [the ARRW] not launching was disappointing, the recent test provided invaluable information to learn from ...

Ukraine now targeting Russian forces with American-made offensive arms in latest war escalation

December 21, 2022 -

The foreign affairs outlet DEBKAFile reports that for the first time, Ukrainian forces have offensively used American weapons against Russian targets, a development that certainly will not sit well with President Vladimir Putin, especially since his troops have been taking a beating from U.S. and NATO-supplied arms for months.

Worse, the targets struck by the Ukrainians were on Russian soil.

"Monday, Dec. 19 saw the first Ukrainian strikes inside Russia with ...

U.S. hypersonic missile tests continue to fail, making America increasingly vulnerable to sneak attack by Russia, China

May 03, 2022 -

But apparently, our military geniuses were more concerned about wasting trillions of dollars to convert tribal civilizations in Afghanistan and Iraq into miniaturized versions of the United States because they completely blew off what Russia and China were doing.

Now, some years later, both of those countries have not simply successfully tested these wonder weapons, they have deployed them -- and the U.S. is still struggling to catch up. In fact, testing of hypersonic weapons ...

What you need to know about using batteries with solar panels

December 17, 2018 -

Perhaps the most important characteristic of a battery is its depth of discharge (DoD). This is the capacity that has already been used. It is usually defined as a percentage of the maximum capacity.

Most manufacturers will tell you about the optimal DoD for the battery before it needs recharging. It is safe and efficient to use the battery up until it reaches this mark.

Say you have a 10 kilowatt hour (kWh) battery with a DoD of 80 percent. You can use up to ...

How to build a survival communication system for less than $50

March 28, 2017 -

Besides the obvious – food, water and shelter – you’re going to have to consider how you will communicate: Between members of your group, between members of other groups and perhaps even the remnants of law enforcement and the military that may still remain.

Cell phones are going to be worthless. Landline telephones are practically a thing of the past already, but even if they weren’t, standard telephone lines would be dead either through sabotage/damage, or because there ...

The tide is turning: 50 steps for survival and VICTORY against the destroyers

July 22, 2021 -

Events have already been set into motion that will lead to humanity's victory over this vaccine holocaust and the mass murderers behind it. But because the globalist murderers realize this is happening, they are unleashing every catastrophe possible to try to cover their tracks. All while suppressing human knowledge, freedom and the truth, of course.

What this means is that we must endure global terrorism like we've never seen before, with the anti-human destroyers attempting ...
