As UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) prices decrease we see a dramatic increase in military use of UAVs in recent years, as time goes on drones are becoming more weaponized than ever before.
The first recorded testing of non-balloon UAVs for military purposes was in the first world war as an “aerial torpedo” that achieved steering using gyroscopes, capable of striking a target in a radius of 40 miles with a payload of 180 lbs (82 kg) this crude technology was a precursor to the modern cruise missile.
As time passed, technological advances have allowed UAVs to become “smarter” and more capable – having greater precision, capable of carrying heavier payloads and becoming more versatile, so versatile that during the cold war some reconnaissance missions where sent out using unmanned vehicles to avoid risking pilots in high risk missions.
During the war on terror the use of striker UAVs became prolific as smarter and smarter armaments have become smaller, cheaper and more lethal than ever before.
Today there are new use cases for UAVs, specifically small (and relatively) inexpensive drones – tactical recon and suicide drones, American and Israeli military forces have been testing and using these kinds of drones for the past couple of years as tools for tactical forces deployed in operational settings in multiple conflict zones.
The ability to deploy a drone before moving ground forces in high population areas saves lives as maps only show the battlefield as relatively static and are used more for strategic purposes as opposed to live video feed from a drone that shows you the current state of the battlefield and gives a deeper understanding of the current state of the battlefield, detection and identification of enemy units are becoming more accessible to front line commanders – who become less dependent on multi-million dollar UAVs that don’t always get allocated to the field units that need them, and that’s without even mentioning the amount of lives saved from enemies popping out of unexpected\unknown locations,
Furthermore, the use of explosive drones has the potential of neutralizing enemies without the need for exposing one’s self to enemy fire, worst case scenario – drone gets shot down, soldier get a new one in a couple of hours and the fight goes on.
There is a case to be made for sending out drones to bait enemies to reveal their location if used with gunshot indication systems, I reckon this tactic might be highly effective against snipers, if they take the bait (which depending on the enemy -probably will).
In May 2020, at least ten suicide drones have been used in internal clashes in Libya (reported by Al-Byda), the use of these kinds of weapons is something everyone should keep an eye on.
The use of these drones shows a shift in mindset towards a device that five years ago was considered by many only a toy\harmless hobby (this type of armament reminds me of times IED’s where planted in teddy bears) I assume its only a matter of time until explosive drones are used to terrorize innocent civilians.
In early 2019 American officials warned of Iranian drones being supplied to Shi’ite militias in Iraq with high reconnaissance abilities and drones capable of dropping explosive devices, these types of drones have already found their way to the hands of Iranian backed militias In Yemen and Iraq.
The expanding distribution of drones shows that the Iranian regime has recognized that low cost drones are assets, that should be used, even by disorganized low capability units armed with the bare minimum of equipment.
A new type of drone that hasn’t been reported yet, though I suspect may be used is the use of jammer drones (capable of GPS jamming\spoofing) that can have major consciences if left undetected by target of such kinds of attacks.
Small drones as a force multiplier is a concept that is bound to become real in the near future and should be looked into as a high capability platform to build on, KD-ICT provides solutions aimed at dealing with these kinds of threats and is capable of providing know-how to governments and military forces all over the world.

What Would Happen If There Is A Nuclear War Between U.S. And Russia?
A nuclear war between the United States and Russia would have catastrophic consequences for the entire world. The destructive power of nuclear weapons is such that even a limited nuclear exchange could cause widespread devastation, environmental damage, and loss of life on a scale never before seen in recent times. In this article, we will explore what could happen if such a conflict were to occur, including real-life scenarios and situations that help us understand the potential consequences.
A Possible Scenario?
First, let's examine the military capabilities of both countries. The United States and Russia possess the two largest nuclear arsenals in the world, with each having thousands of warheads at their disposal. These weapons are capable of destroying entire cities and causing widespread devastation. In addition to their nuclear capabilities, both countries also have advanced conventional military forces, inclu…


Most people are wildly inaccurate when shooting a pistol. Over the past couple decades, I’ve observed many shooters. I’ve seen casual gun owners, Recon Marines, regular Marines, executive protection agents, and nationally competitive pistol shooters do their best and worst at the range. In terms of accuracy, there’s a bimodal distribution. Shooters are either good or bad, with most, especially the casual gun owners, falling into the bad category. Bad pistol shooting is so pervasive that common shooters believe pistols themselves to be inaccurate. The problem is not the pistol; it’s the shooter. If a typical pistol is pointed in the right direction when a bullet leaves the barrel, it will hit a human torso at 100 yards every single time. I show this by shooting a compact 9mm at 200 and 300 yards.
There are a couple of paths into good pistol shooting. The most common path is years of practice, shooting hundreds of thousands of rounds. The other path is much quicker and cheaper, but requires a specific bit of insight and a little practice in a special shooting drill.
You move the gun as you pull the trigger. You move way more than you realize because your movement is masked by the more violent movement of the recoil. Your movement is actually a subconscious effort to counteract the force of the recoil. You tighten up and drive the gun forward and down. It’s automatic; you don’t plan on doing it, and you don’t even know that you are doing it. In order to stop doing it, you need to remove the mask that keeps it hidden in the subconscious.
Remove the recoil that masks your movement. Buy dummy rounds. Mix three or four dummy rounds randomly into each magazine of live rounds, then mix up the magazines so that you don’t have any knowledge of where the dummy rounds are in your ammo.
Shoot for accuracy at a target close enough to easily see your grouping. If you haven’t done this before, I absolutely guarantee that when a dummy round randomly feeds into the chamber, you’ll pull the trigger and flinch in anticipation of recoil that doesn’t come. Your movement will be fully visible without recoil to obscure it. Now it’s in your conscious awareness; now you can exert conscious control. Your goal should be that whenever you pull the trigger on a dummy round, the gun will stay still like a statue. Most people can achieve this after shooting several magazines in this drill. At the end of your first session of this drill, the grouping on the target will be the best you’ve ever shot. You’ll know cognitively and kinesthetically how to overcome the biggest obstacle to accurate pistol shooting. It will take more practice to make it into a habit, but that practice can be profoundly more efficient and productive than ever before.

Nuclear Security Summit on US capital
With some 47 countries in attendance it will be one of the largest gatherings of its kind in the US capital since the late 1940s.
This will be the third element in a nuclear season that began with this month’s unveiling of the Obama administration’s nuclear strategy, the Nuclear Posture Review.
This identified nuclear proliferation–the spread of nuclear weapons and the danger that they might fall into the hands of terrorist groups–as now the key nuclear threat to America’s security.
As the summit begins, the United States is negotiating with the four other permanent members of the United Nations Security Council on tougher sanctions against Iran over its nuclear ambitions.
“The central focus of this nuclear summit is the fact that the single biggest threat to U.S. security, both short term, medium term and long term, would be the possibility of a terrorist organization obtaining a nuclear weapon,” Obama said Sunday, appearing with South African President Jacob Zuma in Washington.
“This is something that could change the security landscape in this country and around the world for years to come,” Obama said. “If there was ever a detonation in New York City, or London, or Johannesburg, the ramifications–economically, politically and from a security perspective–would be devastating. We know that organizations like al Qaeda are in the process of trying to secure nuclear weapons or other weapons of mass destruction and would have no compunction at using them.”
Obama signed a new treaty with Russia last week to reduce the nuclear stockpiles of both nations, and his administration issued a revised U.S. nuclear arms strategy intended to reinforce the nation’s nuclear deterrent while isolating terrorists and rogue states that fail to comply with international regulations.
It all fits together as an ambitious effort to mobilize a unified global effort against nuclear proliferation, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Defense Secretary Robert Gates said in interviews broadcast Sunday.
“We want to get the world’s attention focused where we think it needs to be, with these continuing efforts by al Qaeda and others to get just enough nuclear material to cause terrible havoc, destruction, and loss of life somewhere in the world,” Clinton told the ABC program “This Week.”
Of particular concern are older nuclear weapons and materials that aren’t safeguarded as well as they should be, particularly in Russia and other states of the former Soviet Union, Clinton said on the NBC program “Meet the Press.”
It used to be considered a U.S.-Soviet issue, Clinton said, rather than the high international priority “we intend to make it in the coming week.”

Colt v. Massachusetts Arms Company
Following the Mexican war, Colt’s revolver became immensely popular-and that meant copiers. To fend them off, Colt not only sued his competitors but also published the following notice:
[box type=”note” size=”large” style=”rounded” border=”full”]New York Daily Times
Dealers in Fire Arms are hereby notified that imitations of COLT’S ARMS, manufactured in Europe, and closely resembling the genuine are now imported into the United States for sale. As the sale of any such arms would be an infringement of Col. Colt’s patent, and as the spurious arms are offered for genuine Colt’s pistols, this notice is given to put dealers and purchasers on their guard.
Any person found importing or selling such arms, or any others, made in violation of Col. Colt’s patent, will be prosecuted.

Bullets are one of those things that the world could certainly have done without but inevitably human nature would have come up with some worse and potentially even more mechanical method of killing. So whether you believe that bullets helped to avoid the untold suffering and sickness that used to kill most soldiers on the battlefield (by ending those battles more quickly), or you believe that bullets were an awful idea and led to unnecessary carnage and warfare, the fact is that they exist and they have certainly changed our world. So you already know everything about them right? Probably not! Did you know that when a sniper is lining up for his shot, he needs to take the spin of the Earth into account? That’s right, the bullet is going to travel so far and so fast that the very spin of the Earth can throw it off of its target. And did you know that every single year Americans buy more than 10 billion bullets? That’s more bullets than there are people on the Earth. And the craziest part? That number is rapidly sky rocketing. Get ready because these are 25 penetrating facts about bullets that will astound you!

I managed to find an opponent for Rogue Trader at my local games club and had a skirmish this week with my Blood Axe Orks versus his Squats.
There'd been a miscommunication and I'd brought 500 points while he'd brought double that so there was a lot of Nob promotion and additional equipment brought to bear to bring my total closer but I still ended up 200 points under.
I'd brought the warboss and his retinue riding in their rhino, a large squad of 10 boyz with bolters, a smaller squad with bolt pistols and a mek, runtherd and a shok attack gun with a couple of bases worth of Snotling ammunition.
I'm no stunty expert but he'd brought 3 (or 4?) squads of squats, a trike and a couple of heavy looking dudes in exo-armour.
The foot troops slogged it up the table with minimal casualties on each side, while the heavy weapon squats nestled up in the building took pot shots at my rhino. The trike shot at my smaller squad while took casualties but eventually both squats riding it were shot with the bike careering off the battlefield.
My rhino got bogged down in terrain so my warboss took the executive decision to disembark with he and his nobs dodging heavy weapon behind walls and craters.
Meanwhile the shok attack offloaded its frenzied snots behind the middle squad and into a protracted combat with the middle squat squad. Another squad joined that combat and eventually got rid of the nuisances but they are a right pain with spore weapons!
The larger ork squad eventually engaged a squat squad in combat and was eventually defeated. But after the middle of the battleground battle with the snots, the rhino proceeded to drive up and down over the squat almost obliterating them all. The remaining squats used their krak grenade on it, immobilising it and rendering it all but useless.
Meanwhile the remaining nobs (and humie advisor) legged it to the building and engaged in a prolonged combat with the heavy weapon squats. We called it a night at one point at which time there were only two nobz and the stationary rhino on my side and about 5 squats on the other.
All in all good fun but the vehicle turning rules are very clunky!


We had a question from one of our members, Daniel, to expand a bit on our last video in reference to trigger modifications. We had some other requests to expand on firearms and ammo selection, so here we go.
Firearms selection for concealed carry. There are several things to think about here. Performance, skill level, capacity, comfort. First off, we recommend looking at your area law enforcement and what they carry. Law enforcement has strict guidelines and policies on what they carry. These are based on evaluation and testing on the function and performance of firearms in various conditions. Police officers have to have firearms that are reliable and function properly. Therefore, we highly recommend you look at reliable and proven firearms for your self protection.
Caliber is another question. When I was a police officer on the street, I carried a .45. Today, as a concealed carrier, I carry a 9mm. The ammunition has gotten better, and 9mm is easier to conceal, and offers more capacity. Whether its 9, 40, 45 or some anything else, I think this is going to be a decision that you will need to make based on your comfort. Not only comfort in shooting and feeling confident shooting with it, but also physical comfort in actually carrying it. If it’s not comfortable to you, then chances are you won’t carry it.
Ammunition. Like having a proven firearm to carry, I want proven ammunition. We recommend you carry factory ammunition that is proven and reliable. If you reload, that is fine, use them on the range, but for concealed carry, I would recommend some of the more proven factory hollow point ammunition. Federal Personal Defense Hydra Shok, Winchester PDX1 Defender, Federal HST, Hornady Critical duty or critical defense, and Speer Gold Dot are a few that I would personally recommend. I would stay away from anything with Zombie Killer, or other similar verbiage.
I think that trigger modifications are fine, especially factory options, if you are going to be shooting them at a range, or in some competition form. On a concealed carry firearm, however, we don’t recommend it. Just like in looking at law enforcement for firearms selection, we recommend the same with functional modifications. Most police departments, if not all, dont’ allow any trigger modifications for on or off duty firearms. Look at Santibanes v. Tomball, Texas and you’ll understand why. It involves a $250k settlement on a justifiable shooting.
Thanks for your questions, and look for part 2 of The Aftermath of a Shooting coming next week. Thank you for your time!

Flying obsolescent aircraft, often without clear objectives, target restrictions and little good intelligence, the aircrew of Bomber Command raided Germany and the Low Countries to both support the tactical objectives and begin the fight back.
RAF Bomber Command had suffered since its inception in 1936 with the original notion that the ‘bomber will always get through’ and an early impression which made it seem that Battle, Blenheim and Wellington would be faster than contemporary fighters and therefore reach their targets even in daylight.
Designed in 1934, the Bristol Blenheim was the first ‘modern’ aeroplane in the Royal Air Force. A monoplane, constructed with a stressed-skin fuselage and powered by the latest radial engines, it was faster than all British fighters then in service. So fast, was the Blenheim that some models were indeed classed as fighters.
The first British aircraft to cross the German coast on 3 September 1939 was a Blenheim, winning the Distinguished Flying Cross for Flying Officer McPherson of No 139 Squadron. A Coastal Command Blenheim sank the first U-Boat of the war on 11 March 1940 and by April, French-based Blenheims were mapping the Franco-German border; something which the French had neglected in the 20 years since the Treaty of Versailles.
There was great optimism that the Blenheim would be able to dent any German advance into France.
The reality was different. The losses were huge. The effect was limited.
By early 1940, the deployment of the Luftwaffe’s Messerschmitt Bf 109, tested in combat in Spain, had proved that daylight bombing without an overwhelming fighter escort would be prone to higher loss rates than would be sustainable. The Aalborg raid on 13 March 1940 resulted in No 82 Squadron ceasing to exist as 11 out of 12 Blenheims were shot down by fighters or flak – the 12th Blenheim had returned to base early with engine problems. It was the greatest proportionate loss of any military operation in the Second World War – yet still the Blenheim crews climbed into their bombers very day and flew eastwards.
In May 1940, when Germany invaded France, the Hurricane fighters in France fully occupied with air defence by the wasteful tactic of standing patrols – France had no radar and no ground-air coordination – there were very fewer opportunities for close escort to protect the bombers against the Luftwaffe. In consequence, the bomber crews were being asked undertake flights into the unknown.
Read any account of the period – and ‘Six Weeks of a Blenheim Summer’ must be the standard against which others are judged – and the valour of every pilot, navigator and air gunner, as well as those groundcrew often left to fend for themselves, comes over.
Yet, day after day, and increasingly, night after night, bomber crews would fly off into enemy skies and make their contribution. The Blenheim was still in service in Malta and the Far East in late 1941 and still sustaining losses.
Blenheims destroyed invasion barges in the summer of 1940 and undertook perilous missions into German-occupied Europe. Bomber Command’s losses outstripped those of Fighter Command in the period and this contribution as recognised by Winston Churchill who described the Bomber Command aircrew as the Many when praising Fighter Command’s Few.
Bomber Command will be remembered at Chalke Valley History festival this year with displays by the only flying Bristol Blenheim in the world and the UK’s only flying Avro Lancaster, the iconic British bomber. Paul Beaver will be commenting on the flying and the leading the discussion on Sunday, 28 June with a complete Lancaster bomber crew. It is also hoped that Victoria Panton Bacon, author of Six Weeks of the Blenheim Summer (about her grandfather’s tour of duty in France 1940) will be joining Paul in the commentary box.


More than 20 kinds of "battlefield robots" of the U.S. Army have entered the practical stage
according to U.S. media reports, an autonomous battlefield robot jointly developed by the U.S. Army Research Laboratory, Carnegie Mellon University and general dynamics robotics is currently undergoing performance tests. Unlike other so-called "battlefield robots", this kind of robot has a higher degree of intelligence and autonomy. It can respond independently according to different battlefield conditions without the operator's remote command. It is a real "autonomous battlefield robot"
according to the US "defense" report, the experimenters said that this kind of robot in the experimental stage can not only "see" the surrounding objects with its own sensors and "feel" the environment with its internal processor, but also automatically design the most suitable way forward, and in the process of moving forward, They can also adjust the forward route at any time according to the new surrounding information detected by the sensor, and automatically avoid fixed obstacles such as trees, rocks, trenches, etc., without too much intervention of operators
researchers will strengthen the ability of this robot to detect and recognize moving targets. John Miller, director of the Army Research Laboratory, said that it is of great practical significance for battlefield robots to enable robots to recognize moving objects, predict their trajectory, and adjust their course of action accordingly. Because the battlefield environment is rapidly changing and very complex, battlefield robots must have flexible response ability. After the development of this autonomous battlefield robot, it will be able to independently complete dangerous tasks such as detecting explosives in complex battlefield and searching high threat areas
according to the plan of releasing the first batch of basic research project guidelines, after the gradual improvement of autonomous battlefield robots, the US Army will apply relevant technologies to the unmanned ground combat vehicle project of "future combat system". In recent years, the U.S. Army has ambitiously invested billions of dollars in the development of robotics for the "future combat system" and battlefield robots that can be used for forward deployment and rear support. It is hoped that robots can be sent to the battlefield to perform various difficult tasks in the future, so as to greatly reduce the battlefield threat faced by manned combat systems and create a myth of "zero casualties" in war
however, some experts believe that although the U.S. military has paid huge financial and human resources to study battlefield robots and made some progress, from the perspective of actual combat effectiveness, the existing battlefield robots cannot be compared with manned combat systems. It will take a long time for battlefield robots to become the protagonists of the future battlefield
according to the US weekly Washington watch, from unmanned aircraft in the sky to various remote-control robots large and small on the ground, unmanned combat systems began to emerge in the Iraq war. The "backpack" robot can capture and distinguish the subtle movements of anti American armed snipers in the street fighting environment; The "Bomb sniffing" robot can sensitively sniff out camouflaged explosives; The armed robot code named "sword" can act as a machine gunner and destroy the enemy with powerful firepower after discovering and locating enemy vehicles and personnel. According to Colonel John Burke, the head of the army's unmanned combat system, there were 163 ground robots in the U.S. Army in 2004, and the Iraq war increased the number of ground robots in the battlefield to 5000. They are all "serving" in Iraq and Afghanistan
robots that play a role in the Iraqi battlefield are only a small part of the U.S. military's "robot war" plan. A more complete plan is called "future combat system" (FCS). This system was developed in May, 2003, and is planned to be organically equipped in 2015. The system, which is planned to be composed of 18 subsystems, can connect each soldier with various land and air combat platforms and sensors on the battlefield. According to the simulation summary of Boeing, the developer of the system: the demand of oscillation test is to recognize the firmness of the products and early evaluate the scientific and technological achievements of the defective products in the preparation technology and utilization project of fence type aluminum base lead alloy composite anode undertaken by China Nonferrous Metals Industry Association for Kunming University of technology and other relevant units. Before leaving the factory, screen and detect the video. In combat operations, the ground robot acts as the pioneer, When the hidden enemy attacked it, the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft found the enemy's position and informed the cruising fighter. However, the fighter fired missiles and hit the target. All these actions are controlled by the US military on the battlefield through networks. Boeing estimates that the system will shorten the battle time by half and reduce the casualty rate of U.S. soldiers by 60% - 80%
in order to verify the feasibility of the "future combat system", the 29th Infantry Regiment of the U.S. Army is conducting a test at Fort Benning army base. This test is called "air long-range attack force drill", which is divided into four stages of ABCD, and is used to test whether American soldiers are suitable for the "future combat system". At present, stages a and B have been completed. They tested the ability of the U.S. military to operate the land and air unmanned system for street warfare in shifts and platoons. The "command, control, communication, computer, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance integrated system" (C4ISR) is added to the ongoing phase C drill, and the drill unit is upgraded to a brigade combat group. The opponents of the simulation drill are armed elements and enemy special forces mixed among civilians. According to retired colonel Eden of the army individual combat laboratory? Davis said that the drill of phase C is mainly to evaluate the technical feasibility and effectiveness of the combat system. Then on this basis, it can be improved to meet the requirements of phase D, that is, the final formation of the robot team drill. Major General Walter, the commander of the U.S. Army Infantry center, directly said the importance of this test, "this drill can connect individual soldiers, future combat systems and the future of the army."
in the military expenditure in 2008, 25% of the R & D expenditure of the US Army will be used for the development and testing of the future combat system, and the final R & D expenditure of this system will reach $300billion. The main machine of the plastic granulator is the extruder system. Only with the support of a large amount of US dollars, robot war can be realized, and the contribution to reducing the casualty rate may not be concluded until on the battlefield
it is said that there are more than 20 kinds of robot systems used in Afghanistan and Iraq. These systems include portable tactical robots, such as Packbot from i-robot, Claw shaped explosive ordnance system and the "dragon messenger" of the Marine Corps "-- mine clearance systems weighing up to six tons. However, gotwood points out that all these systems play an equally important role for soldiers. He compares robots to household tools. Soldiers use robot systems for special tasks. Troops may only need a small platform to deal with improvised explosive devices, or they may need a large, heavy robot to clear mined areas.
a robot is now being deployed The throwbot robot system is a tactical robot that can be thrown through a door or window to perform reconnaissance missions. This small, cylindrical robot is only the size of a soda bottle, with two wheels and a camera, and it weighs less than half a pound. The robot was developed by the Minnesota reconnaissance robot company. Throwbot is controlled by handheld commercial wireless devices and joysticks. Its mission is to provide soldiers with fast monitoring information before entering the building
another robot system put into use is called "Gladiator". It was developed by Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh. The six wheeled golfer sized robot will be used by the Marine Corps to perform various reconnaissance and support missions. Gladiators can also perform combat missions and can be equipped with machine guns and grenade launchers. According to gotwood, this is the first armed robot sent to the battlefield. The robotics joint project office plans to evaluate several robot system prototypes this year

Here's a question for Steven Den Beste and the other amateur tacticians on the net.
I thought the most interesting part of Powell's speech was his discussion of Iraqi experiments with unmanned planes.
According to Powell, the Iraqis have developed small unmanned planes that can fly on autopilot. The US recently watched Iraq test one of its models - the plane was able to fly for 500 kilometers (311 miles) in a roughly rectangular 5 mile by 8 mile "racetrack" course that included several turns. The Iraqis also have the technology to use these planes to spray bioweapons or nerve gas.
1) Does anyone know if this is a picture of an actual Iraqi "unmanned arial vehicle" or just an example of the size of the planes the Iraqis are now using?
2) An unmanned light plane that can fly with precision over a distance of 300 miles starts to sound like a rough functional equivalent of a cruise missile (although I assume cruise missiles can fly faster and more precisely, and are a little easier to launch). Let's assume for a moment that Saddam has a significant number of these things - somewhere between 20 and 200. What does that do to our military planning. My rough guesses:
a) Novelty I hate to see the other side introduce a novel weapon in any conflict. (The loss of the Sheffield and the WTC towers themselves are immediate examples, and history is full of them). The presence of a new weapon introduces uncertainty, which means more risk for our troops and surrounding civilians. That said, I assume we have plans to control the risks.
b) Guidance The Iraqis will have a heck of a time guiding the things. We will be knocking out their radio broadcast stations early, and they won't have access to the global positioning system. I think it's likely that these things will be on full autopilot for the whole flight, which means they probably won't be accurate enough to hit moving targets such as ships or soldiers. (In other words, they will be a lot more like V2's than like cruise missiles). That said, if there are US airbases or tempting civilian targets within range, I can see Saddam using them.
c) Defense If we've known about the test flight for a while, I assume we've warned our allies and the surrounding nations. Even if Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Israel don't fight, they will have their fighters scrambled waiting for one of these things to come over the horizon, and the farther they have to fly, the more warning we will get. (I don't like to be machiavellian, but if at least tepid cooperation is the price of access to US/UK advance warning radars, it could be one of the factors Turkey's move towards supporting the US).
Assuming that we can disable radio control, these things won't have an serious evasive capability. Their best bet would be to run low and fast, and hope that they are light enough to have a negligible radar profile. I'd be very interested to know how fast these things can go. Theoretically, an unmanned plane is potentially superior to a manned plane, since it can take more accelleration or centrifigual force than a manned plane can. However, if Iraq was unsuccessful at developing an unmanned combat plane, it probably doesn't have a high performance plane of any kind.
c) Signalling Aside from the gigantic smoking gun that these planes represent, I wonder if Powell was deliberately telling the Iraqis that we would be prepared for these things. I think it's safe to assume that he was.
Update: I think it's safe to assume that Den Beste is right that I meant the V1, not the V2. (Lesson: find a link for everything, which will teach you to check your facts.)


Time to do the full announcement.
Yes, I made a real working replica of A Light Shining in Darkness. It took me about 3 years to get it to this point. Of course, I took a little creative license, and am calling mine “The Light Shining in Darkness”, since it is not 100% exact, but it’s pretty close.
The main differences are the sights, magazine capacity, and some additional engraving. Instead of using the gutter sights, I went with a new tritium type of sight called a Bullseye sight. I thought it was futuristic looking, so mounting it on an old Colt-type 1911 seemed about right for the mix of future and past – Fallout style. The one in the game has a magazine capacity of 6 rounds and mine has 7. There’s some other minor differences. You get the idea, it’s not exact, but pretty close.
I got the idea during the covid shutdowns and I started the project in March of 2020. So this was my “Covid project”.
I contacted some of the best companies I knew for the actual parts of the gun, as I figured if I was going to do this, do it right. It’s top notch. But dude, I had no idea the effort this was going to take to get done. I thought I’d have a working version in 3 months! LOL! Nope. 3 years.
I’m a longtime Fallout fan and wanted to finally announce what this thing really is. This was my fave gun from New Vegas and thought you guys would think it’s cool. I think it’s badass.

A knife is a tool with a cutting edge or blade, hand-held or otherwise, with most having a handle.
Knife blades can be manufactured from a variety of materials, each of which has advantages and disadvantages. Carbon steel, an alloy of iron and carbon, can be very sharp. It holds its edge well, and remains easy to sharpen, but is vulnerable to rust and stains. Stainless steel is an alloy of iron, chromium, possibly nickel, and molybdenum, with only a small amount of carbon. It is not able to take quite as sharp an edge as carbon steel, but is highly resistant to corrosion.
By appointment knives are divided into the following main categories:
– hunting, tourist, fishing
The kit includes a knives sheath often.
Our company has a license for the production of cold steel and produces hunting, fighting, tactical, throwing, universal knives and others.
We also accept orders for manufacturing of knives on request.


Tracing bullet Purpose, device and features
The modern market is able to offer various types of live ammunition. They have their own performance characteristics and purpose. Notable are tracer bullets for pneumatics and small arms, which are used in case of poor visibility in the process of shooting. They are represented by a variety of models. What are tracer bullets, what features do they have? These and other questions you will find answers in this article.
What are tracer bullets?
The tracing bullet is the head of the combat cartridge used in small arms, sporting and hunting weapons. It is designed to adjust the fire in the process of shooting at a distance of one kilometer.
The main feature of these bullets is the movement of the center of gravity and the change in weight, which occurs due to the burning of the tracer.In this case, the longitudinal displacement does not adversely affect the flight. However, with a transverse displacement of the center of gravity, the bullet can become dynamically unbalanced, which leads to a significant increase in dispersion. This is due to the unilateral burnout of the tracer present in the composition.
Moreover, in this process, combustion products are capable of being released, which are distinguished by chemical aggressiveness and destructive action on the bore. It doesn’t matter if a machine gun is firing. However, for a sniper rifle such bullets should not be used. In addition, shooting accuracy will not be perfect. Moreover, when losing weight, the penetration capacity of the ammunition will be lost. A distinctive feature is the green color of the tip.
What are armor piercing tracer bullets?
Armor-piercing tracer bullets are ammunition, which are used in small arms. They consist of a bimetallic shell, a container with a tracer composition, a core and a cavity in the main part of the shell. This invention relates to ammunition of small arms, which is intended not only to adjust the fire, but also to defeat technology with light armor.In the field of development of bullets of this type, there is a development in the direction of increasing the breakdown effect and accuracy parameters.
Known tracer bullets of this type with the presence in its composition of the shell, armor-piercing core and the container with the tracer composition. In addition, they can be supplemented with incendiary mixture. However, military ammunition does not meet modern requirements in the field of breakdown action. To eliminate this drawback, it is necessary to produce the head of the bullet with a taper-like point, and to increase the weight of the core.
There are also ammunition that have a similar design, but the shape of their head is optimized. This contributes to the enhancement of breakdown action. Moreover, this design allows to reduce the cost of kinetic energy in the process of passing the obstacle core.
Armor-piercing tracer bullets may also contain a shell, core and tracer checker. The use of such a two-layer scheme contributes to an increase in the weight of the core, and, accordingly, penetration. In this case, the dimensions of the core are significantly limited due to the need to maintain a suitable location of the center of mass. As a result, it is impossible to achieve the expected performance.Moreover, the absence of a special lead shirt leads to an increase in the likelihood of tracer damage.
What is armor-piercing incendiary tracer bullets?
An armor-piercing incendiary tracer bullet is a structure that consists of a bimetallic shell, a container with a special composition, a core and a cavity in front of it. The tail part of the core has a cylindrical shape, and the head - oval. The subject invention relates to the field of small arms ammunition. These bullets are used to carry out the adjustment of fire, as well as the defeat of auxiliary and lightly armored vehicles. They are designed as armor piercing bullets with a tracer inside.
Armor-piercing, incendiary tracer bullets are designed not only to destroy lightly armored targets, but also to ignite the fuel behind the armor. They are used to fire their light and rifle machine guns, rifles and carbines. To understand how this type of bullet works, you can consider two types of rifle ammunition.
BZT bullet consists of the following components: bimetallic or brass-plated sheath, steel core,a shirt made of lead, containers with pressed tracer and flammable composition, as well as incendiary and transition mixture. The weight of this ammunition is 59 g.
The BLS bullet incorporates the following components: a brass-coated casing, an aluminum jacket, a core made of metal-ceramic, a tracer container with pressed tracer and flammable composition, and an incendiary mixture.
The two types considered are slightly different, but their execution determines the speed of the bullet and the accuracy of hitting the target. Analysis of technical solutions allows us to understand that due to the increase in the weight of the core, an improved breakdown effect is achieved. It is worth noting that in the process of firing under the influence of powder gases, the corresponding composition of the tracer is ignited. After the bullet flies out of the barrel, the tracer component will be ignited, resulting in a trace from the tracer bullet. The use of such ammunition will allow for the adjustment of fire and hit lightly armored vehicles.
How does a tracer bullet work?
Products of this type have a tracer composition as a filling. It is pressed in several stages using high pressure.This is done to prevent the destruction of the composition when fired. It is also possible to avoid the destruction of the supply in flight and the burning of the tracer on large surfaces. In the shells of similar ammunition of domestic manufacturers placed core, made of lead alloy with antimony. Behind there is a glass with a tracer composition, which is pressed in several layers.
In order to prevent the destruction of this substance, basically no knurling on the side surface is created. It also helps to ensure normal burning. The cartridge with a tracer bullet of this type has a mount due to the landing in the Dultsev with tension.
In the process of firing, the flame from the powder charge ignites the tracer composition and burns when the bullet flies. This forms a bright glowing trail, which is clearly visible, regardless of the time of day. Glow can be green, crimson, orange or yellow. It depends on the use in the manufacture of components and the time it will take. Best of all it will be noticeable at any time of the day is the crimson glow.As you can see, the device tracer bullet is quite simple.
Tracers are bullets that allow you to visually assess the trajectory of the projectiles being produced, which is based on tracer tracking. The scope can be determined by the labeling of the product. If it does not have special designations, the bullets have a general purpose. If the combination is the letter "T" or "Z", it will be special-purpose cartridges. They will have greater effectiveness of the main damaging factor.
Shooting with the use of tracer bullets is mainly performed interspersed with several main ammunition. This is ensured by appropriate equipment tapes and stores. In order to obtain a high accuracy of target indication, it is necessary to achieve a good comparison of the trajectories.
In the process of adjusting the fire most often used ammunition with a red color track. It will be well observed at any time of the day. Also important is the high speed of the bullet and the tracing distance. Effective products are in great demand.It is worth noting that the tracer bullet of 5.45-8 mm has a range of tracing from 800 to 1500 meters. For large-caliber ammunition, this figure reaches 2500 meters.
The brightness and the length of the path depend on the properties and speed of the burning tracer composition. Of particular importance is the pressing pressure, as well as the ratio of the diameters of the composition and output pressure.
Tracer bullets were invented before 1914. Ammunition of this type gave a trace in the form of fire or smoke, which contributed to the effective adjustment of the shooting. This was especially important in the process of firing on aircraft in the dark. English and French tracer bullets have a special design. They were released with increased size. From the back of them there is a groove, which is half or a third of the length of the bullet. In the production process, a special compound is pressed into it. It can burn with red, green or white fire.
At first, the visibility of the bullet track was insignificant and was about 350 meters. In 1918, this figure was increased to one kilometer. If the device of ammunition provides for the presence of a core of lead, the tracer composition is previously placed in a special cup.Such a manipulation avoids melting the part as a result of the combustion of the composition and the formation of a high temperature. A similar device has an English tracer bullet. In this case, the composition in it ignites the powder gases of the charge.
The use of tracer bullets is prohibited by the third protocol of the Hague Conference. For this reason, the use of military ammunition of this type in combat against personnel constitutes a crime. In this case, their use for aviation and ground equipment is permissible. Also, the ban does not exclude the intentional damage to people by cartridges of this type. In such cases, a person may receive serious injuries that are only in some cases compatible with life.
In fact, such a ban was established as early as November 1868 by the St. Petersburg Declaration. It was developed by Minister of War Dmitri Alexeyevich Milyutin, who insisted on the introduction of a ban on the use of incendiary and explosive substances when shooting at people. From the standpoint of modern man, such ammunition is a barbaric tool that has no justification.
Despite the existing prohibition, tracer bullets were actively used during the Second World War. They were mainly directed against the partisans. If before the ammunition had a caliber of 9 mm, then today in service with NATO there are sniper rifles with a figure of 25 mm.
Ministry of Defense refusal from tracer bullets
In 2013, the Ministry of Defense of Russia made a decision, which consisted in the abandonment of tracer bullets from lead. They will come to replace the armor-piercing tracer ammunition, which are equipped with a core of steel. The military believe that standard products serve only to adjust the fire, therefore, they are highly specialized. In addition, lead causes damage to nature in the landfills and the body arrow.
Under bad weather conditions or at night, when conducting combat and training firing, one tracer ammunition is used through four conventional ones. It is indispensable in conditions of poor visibility. Modern protective helmets and body armor cannot be pierced with such bullets. This is one of the reasons why the Ministry of Defense decided to use armor-piercing tracer products.
Similar cartridges were developed in 2000 by the Moscow Region Constructive bureau of automatic lines; four years later, they were put into service. However, the military department they were purchased in small quantities. The purchase was completely discontinued in 2010. At the moment, the Ulyanovsk ammunition plant produces tracer ammunition.
The new generation of tracer bullets
Tracer ammunition for more than a century has contributed to the conduct of aim fire by soldiers in the dark. They have many advantages, but also have disadvantages. The most significant of them is that the enemy soldiers can easily calculate the position of the enemy, observing the fire, which is conducted through the use of bullets of this type. The US Department of Defense today is engaging engineers and scientists in the process of developing a new generation of ammunition. In this case, the trace of them should be visible only to the arrow that firing.
The use of pyrotechnic materials and non-combustible mixtures is the basis for the creation of traditional tracer ammunition. Products will be developed usingfluorescent materials as well as chemical sources of illumination. They will be activated only during the shot. A special recess is created in the back of the bullet into which the luminous material will be placed. For this reason, the light will not be visible from the enemy.
The use of ammunition of this type has an important advantage. Due to the jet of flame arising in the flight of an ordinary bullet, the trajectory of its movement changes. In addition, as the tracer burns, the weight of the ammunition changes, which affects the flight ballistics. The tracer shells of the new generation will not have these drawbacks. Their advantage lies in the high accuracy of shooting.
Tracer projectile of this type can be used for combat by eliminating the problem with changes in the flight path. Today, tracer bullets along with ordinary bullets are used in the ratio of 1/3.
Rules for the storage of ammunition in the units of military units
Tracer and armor piercing bullets should receive proper care. First of all, their owner must adhere to the following storage rules:
- Cartridges must be protected from dirt, dust and moisture. If you neglect this condition, over time they will become completely unsuitable for firing.
- Products must be protected from liquid. If it penetrates the inside of the sleeve, the powder charge will be moistened. This will cause a misfire, because protracted shots or bullets are stuck in the barrel.
- Storage is required to provide an indoor area.
- When the contents of cartridges in the open air need to provide means of protection from pollution and environmental influences.
- It is forbidden to make fires near the place of storage.
- It is unacceptable to put a box of ammunition on the ground. This requires the use of a strip of wood or other materials.
- The box must be placed with the lid up.
- It is forbidden to store foreign objects and lubricants near the cartridges.
- It is possible to open tanks with ammunition only in cases when they are needed.
- Special attention should be paid to the decals in the process of opening the boxes.
- It is strictly forbidden to keep in one place combat, training and single cartridges.
- If the products become rusty, they should be wiped with dry cloth.
- If the cartridges were scattered for a long time, they should be carefully wiped before the equipment into ribbons.
- Bad bullets cannot be used for shooting.
Adhering to the rules of storage and use of cartridges, you can avoid serious problems in the process of shooting.
Tracer bullets have a lot of advantages, so they have been actively used for a hundred years in military operations in many countries. Moreover, the presence of their benefits has been proven in practice. The development of a new generation will lead to the achievement of high efficiency in the shooting process. In addition, the arrow will not notice the enemy, which will lead to maximum security.
Many are interested in the question of how to make a tracer bullet on their own. The cartridge of this type can really be done by hand. However, it should be understood that this can lead to negative consequences. It is undesirable to create such structures at home from materials of dubious quality, since the user may suffer in the process of shooting.Original tracer bullets with proper storage are absolutely safe for their owner.
