China to hold live fire drills along tense border with Myanmar



BEIJING (Reuters) – China’s military will hold land and air live fire drills along a part of the border with Myanmar where shells have fallen during fighting between the Myanmar government and ethnic Chinese rebels, the Defence Ministry said on Monday.

China has been angered by repeated incidents of shells or bombs from the fighting falling in Chinese territory, in which at least five Chinese have died, and thousands of refugees have crossed into China’s southwestern province of Yunnan to escape the clashes.

The Chinese military’s drills will begin on Tuesday, the Defence Ministry said, and take place in two Yunnan counties which lie right next to Myanmar’s Kokang region.

China had informed Myanmar about the drills, it said.

The drills will not affect the normal lives of residents, though they will have to follow instructions on which parts of the county will be off limits, the ministry said, adding that the end of the exercises would be announced later.

Myanmar’s parliament last month extended martial law for three months in the Kokang region.

China has repeatedly demanded that Myanmar take greater steps to prevent fighting from spilling over to its side of the border.

Myanmar government soldiers have been battling rebels who were dug in as close as 500 metres (yards) from the border area, Myanmar’s Information Ministry said in April.

The main rebel group in Kokang is called the Myanmar National Democratic Alliance Army (MNDAA), which is led by ethnic Chinese commander Peng Jiasheng.

The MNDAA was formed from remnants of the Communist Party of Burma, a powerful China-backed guerrilla force that battled the Myanmar government until it splintered in 1989.

The group struck a truce with the government which lasted until 2009, when government troops took over their region in a conflict that pushed tens of thousands of refugees into China’s Yunnan province.

North Korea 'could DESTROY London and kill THOUSANDS with devastating cyber attacks'



Professor Kim Heung-Kwang, who defected from the regime, said that the country's military hacking unit could pose a "feasible threat to a city".

He said: "The reason North Korea has been harassing other countries is to demonstrate that North Korea has cyber war capacity."

"Their cyber-attacks could have similar impacts as military attacks, killing people and destroying cities."

The country's notorious hacking agency – also known as Bureau 121 – has been linked to a series of cyber-attacks.

Professor Kim taught computer science at Hamheung Computer Technology University, before escaping the country in 2004.

While he did not teach hacking techniques, his former students have gone on to North Korea's notorious bureau.

hornet can use rocket pod?

Why can't it? If a weapon can fit the pylon and the electronic connections are compatible, I imagine the Hornet can mount any type of munitions it wants.

Malaysia, South Africa ink deal on Radar and Elctronic sensor deal


South African Tuthlwa Air Defense Radar

Scientists from South Africa and Malaysia will collaborate on the research and development (R&D) of advanced radar and sensor technologies, and electronic and network-centric warfare systems, over 10 years starting in 2016. The South African Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) and the National Defence University of Malaysia (NDUM) signed a memorandum of agreement that paves the way for the establishment in Malaysia of a joint Centre of Excellence for Advanced Defence Technologies, specializing in radar and sensor technologies.

The signing of the agreement represents a deepening of bilateral defense business and diplomatic relations between South Africa and Malaysia.This is the second major deal between the two countries this year; it follows a memorandum of understanding (MoU) signed by Denel Aerostructures and Strand Aerospace Malaysia to pave the way for collaboration in defense aerospace systems. Speaking after the signing ceremony in Malaysia, NDUM’s vice chancellor and Chief of the Malaysian Armed Forces , Gen. Tan Sri Dato Seri Panglima Haji Zulkifli bin Haji Zainal Abidin, said collaborating with the South African institution will help Malaysia develop the capacity to produce defense gear and meet its own demand for modern electronic warfare systems.

Mobile 14.5mm heavy machinegun, Libya-style



Major LOL

Honestly I never see f18 carry lau32 or lau51, I see only lau10 which can carry 4 rocket payload, but that suu5003 adapter can also carry 4 rocket payload with extra space under it for unguided small bombs

can FZ-90 or Hydra-70 launch from suu5003?
Pic of LAU32 and LAU51 already rare on internet. just imaging how hard to find by googling F/A-18 with LAU32 and LAU51.

If the company is creative enough, we can make a MLRS off this thing.
