QATAR TO BUY BOMBS FROM UKRAINE TO DISCREDIT RUSSIAN AIR FORCE IN SYRIA

user posted image

QUOTE
According to hackers in “CyberBerkut”, Qatar is planning to obtain Soviet model bombs from Ukraine and with middleman, a Polish firm called Level 11. What is noteworthy is that the Emirate is ready to pay a triple price – $2100 a piece, although these bombs are being used by the Airspace Forces in Syria, who are conducting a military operation against Daesh (IS, an organization forbidden in Russia).

The Qatari Air Force is equipped with French fighters ‘Mirage 2000’ and Alpha Jet light attack aircrafts, and apparently the use of Soviet bombs is not characteristic of them. That is why we are raising a legitimate question: why then does Qatar need old bombs of Soviet production? Lets note that a high-explosive bomb or a fragmentation mine is not necessary to throw from an airplane – it can be detonated on the ground, if necessary. This means that it is an option that these weapons can miraculously end up in Syria and detonate in some busy place so that then Russia can be blamed in bombing peaceful civilians”, – reports the site “CyberBerkut”.

Ex-CIA Officer: Erdogan Meddles in Iraq, Syria to Isolate PKK

user posted image

QUOTE
I believe Erdogan seeks to carve out a ‘Kurdish-free zone’ in northern Iraq and northern Syria to keep Iraqi and Syrian Kurds from supplying PKK supporters on the Turkish side of the border," Kiriakou said.
QUOTE
As proof, we have Turkish actions in Syria in the past few weeks. As soon as Erdogan agreed to support allied military efforts in Syria, he began bombing Kurdish positions along the border. He didn't bomb the Islamic State, but bombed the Kurds," Kiriakou observed.
QUOTE
"I don't think Erdogan has the wherewithal to create a new Ottoman Empire-like presence in the Middle East, nor to occupy Iraqi or Syrian territory over the long-term. I think his goals are more parochial," he noted.

drones are made to endure long flying hours at high altitude, so they are made light with lengthy wings to reach those altitude
and they have a little but efficient and silent engine, but in turn they cant carry much of anything else

thats the trade-off of using drones, they are great for recon & precision strike mission, but they are not a bomber carrying many missiles

This Very Odd Armored Vehicle Was Built by a Ghanian Minister

user posted image

QUOTE
A religious organization in the African nation of Ghana has built its own armored car. Designed for military duties including peacekeeping, the Katanka Armored Car is, well, odd.

The Katanka is the brainchild of Kwadwo Safo, also known as African Star. Safo is a Christian minister in Ghana and the owner of the Katanka group of companies. Safo is also the inventor of the Katantka sport utility vehicles.




QUOTE
The YouTube video below was apparently taken at a demonstration of the Katanka, which featured members of the Ghanian military in the audience. We don't know what the announcer is saying, but given the comments at YouTube and at this web site, we can make some educated guesses. Even still, some aspects of the Katanka are so baffling we're still left scratching our heads.

The Katanka appears to be made of unpainted sheet metal, with faceting that may give radar-evading qualities—or not. The level of armored protection the sheet metal gives is unknown—we don't know how thick the metal is, and bullet penetration can vary greatly depending on angle of impact.

US military reveals it hopes to use artificial intelligence to create cybersoldiers and even help fly its F-35 fighter jet - but admits it is ALREADY playing catch up

QUOTE
The US military has revealed its plans for artificial intelligence on the battlefield - but admits enemies are already ahead of it.

It hopes AI will power everything from cybersoldiers to the targetting systems of the F-35 - but admits it has to catch up to commercial AI firms.

Deputy Defense secretary Robert Work said 'The commercial world has already made this leap.'

India Plans To Build Stealth Combat Drones

user posted image

QUOTE
India Set To Launch Project Ghatak

The approved proposal for indigenous Indian UCAVs will be classified under Project Ghatak, valued at INR 26,500 million and developed with a vision to build an advanced “Indian Unmanned Strike Air Vehicle” at the soonest. The project has already been green-lighted by the Indian Defence Ministry and is now being evaluated by the country’s finance ministry, pending approval from the central government.

The Times of India reports that Indian defence officials are confident that the government will most certainly ratify the proposal for Project Ghatak. A source within the government revealed, “The project is now being evaluated by an expert committee set up by the finance ministry. Once approved, Project Ghatak will be placed before the cabinet committee on security for the final nod.”

The report in The Times of India states that the Indian UCAVs will run on an upgraded version of the Kaveri aerospace engine, a native aero engine that is the brainchild of the Indian Defence Research and Development Organization (DRDO). The inclusion of the Kaveri aerospace engine into these plans is an unusual decision because the system has not seen much success with the Made in India Tejas light combat aircraft it was initially deployed with. The original variant of the indigenous Kaveri engine has met with some criticism for not being powerful enough to run the Tejas; however, it is reported that the new “dry” engine variant of the Kaveri is expected to prove adequate for the proposed UCAVs.

Navy to choose submarines from among three vendors

Nani Afrida
The Jakarta Post, Jakarta | December 16 2015 | 5:09 PM
   
The Navy is yet to make a decision on what type of submarines it will purchase to complete its weapons system procurement in the next five-year strategic plan.

Navy Chief of Staff, Admiral Ade Supandi said it would be some time before a decision could be made.

“The Navy and the military headquarters are still conducting a strategic review of the matter. The procurement takes time because it must go through several phases,” Ade said in Jakarta on Tuesday.

According to Ade, the first phase would be drawing up the submarines’ specifications, the second phase would be planning the budget and the last phase would be building the vessels.

The Navy is currently reviewing three types of submarine from three countries; the Russian Kilo class, the South Korean Chang Bogo and a German design.

“We are still conducting reviews, but we expect to buy a diesel-electric type, [from one of those vendors]” he said.

Previously, Navy spokesperson Comr. Muhammad Zainuddin told The Jakarta Post that the force had opted to procure Kilo-class submarines from Russia as part of the 2015-2019 strategic plan.

“There are many types of Kilo-class submarines, we have yet to decide which type we will purchase,” Zainuddin said.

The Russian Kilo-class 636 submarines are mainly intended for anti-ship and anti-submarine operations in shallow waters.

The type is also resilient in a variety of weather conditions. Countries that operate the Kilo class include Algeria, China, India, Romania and Vietnam.

Indonesia has a long history of procuring submarines from Russia and the former Soviet Union. In 1967, it acquired 12 Whiskey-class submarines

Indonesia also procured three Chang Bogo-class submarines from South Korea in 2011. Two of the boats would be built in South Korea, while the last would be built in Indonesia.

Defense Minister Ryamizard Ryacudu said the first two boats were now more than 50 percent completed.

Submarines, with their stealth capacity, are regarded as effective deterrents and Zainuddin said that Indonesia needed at least 12 such vessels to protect its territory.

The Navy currently operates two German-made submarines, the KRI Cakra (401) and KRI Nenggala (402), which were built in the 1980s. The boats are due to be decommissioned in 2020.

According to Ade, the Navy will make its decision regarding which submarines to purchase based on the current state budget situation.

The Navy is currently busy preparing a joint exercise, code-named “Komodo” with foreign navies from 32 countries to be staged in April 2016.

Ade said the exercise would take place off Padang, West Sumatra, and would focus on disaster mitigation.

“We’ve selected Padang, because the area is a disaster-prone area. We also want to introduce them to the area and our rich country,” Ade said.

He expected that the joint exercise would serve as a conduit for a transfer of knowledge and boost relations between neighboring countries.

You probably also believed soldiers went to battle with hundreds of bullets like in CoD or Battlefield. In reality soldiers only brought around 100-150 bullets whenever they go on an operation. Bullets weigh a lot when you carry hundreds of them. A fully loaded 30-round STANAG M16/M4 magazine already weights around 1/2 kg and usually soldiers carry 5-6 of them, max. (Although most soldiers carry only load 25 rounds per magazine to prevent jamming the mag)

Anyway, most UAVs have very low ordnance loads due to their light weight and low-powered engines. They are also have more fragile wings than normal attack aircraft due to their need to do low power/high altitude loitering, so hardpoints to hang ordnance like missiles and bombs are limited in the first place.

U.S. Navy, Royal Malaysian Navy Submarine Leaders Participate in Guam Staff Talks[SIZE=7]
By Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class Zac Shea, USS Frank Cable Public Affairs | USS Frank Cable (AS-40) | December 03, 2015


POLARIS POINT, Guam (NNS) -- Key members of the U.S. Navy and Royal Malaysian Navy (RMN) submarine forces met at Submarine Squadron 15 headquarters on Polaris Point, Guam, for the RMN and U.S. Navy Submarine Staff Talks 2015.

The talks, presided over by Rear Adm. William Merz, commander, Submarine Group 7, and Rear Adm. Abdul Rahman, commander, RMN Submarine Force, focused on reviewing and establishing plans for joint trainings and exercises in 2016 and beyond.

The event included a luncheon aboard the submarine tender USS Frank Cable (AS 40), and tours of the guided-missile submarine USS Ohio (SSGN 726) and training facilities at Submarine Squadron 15.

"We are a young submarine force," said Rahman. "We've learned a lot through these talks and trainings, especially on safety. I think it's wonderful."

RMN has two submarines homeported in Sepanggar, Malaysia, the first of which was delivered in 2009.

"Whether a large force or a small force, we all contribute to the undersea team," said Merz. "What's great about working with the Malaysians is that they have a strong sense of their capabilities."

The event is one of many joint trainings and exchanges between Malaysia and the United States. American submarines and submarine tenders have conducted multiple subject matter expert exchanges on topics such as quality assurance and safety when visiting Malaysian ports.

The talks culminated with Merz and Rahman signing an action item agreement that lined out plans and steps to improve and expand collaboration between the two navies.

"Ashore our cultures are different, but underwater they're very well aligned," said Merz. "I see a great future for our two navies. RMN has exactly what you look for in an ally."

Malaysia, an island nation of more than 30 million in the Pacific Ocean, has been allied with the U.S. since it gained its independence in 1957. It is considered a partner by the U.S. in matters of maritime domain awareness and regional stability in the Pacific region.

Russia Is Using Space Power In Its Attack On Syria

user posted image

QUOTE
Russia now fields one of the largest and most effective satellite groups in the world, and it has reached a peak of activity amid the military operations in Syria,” crowed Russia Beyond the Headlines, a government-owned propaganda website.
QUOTE
On Nov. 17, Valery Gerasimov, chief of the Russian military’s general staff, briefed reporters on the space deployment. “Ten imagery and electronic warfare reconnaissance satellites, including civilian-use spacecraft, have been involved in reconnaissance,” Gerasimov said, adding that controllers on the ground modified some of the sats’ orbits to focus them on Syria.
QUOTE
According to Zak, the 10 satellites include the new Bars-M mapping sat, Garpun radio relays, the Lotos-S electronic eavesdropper and, perhaps most significantly, the modern Resurs-P2 and Persona sats, both of which are essentially high-resolution orbital cameras. In a phrase, “spy satellites.”

Persona is a strictly military system and “the nation’s most advanced reconnaissance satellite,” according to Zak. Resurs-P2 is a slightly less sophisticated version of Persona for military and civilian use. “It could be commanded to photograph individual objects on the Earth’s surface as well as to scan swathes of land extending up to 2,000 kilometers,” Zak wrote about Resurs-P2.

Citing official sources, Zak estimated that Resurs-P2 can photograph 80,000 square kilometers per day in high-resolution mode—roughly half of Syria’s land area.
QUOTE
On Dec. 3, the Russian defense ministry released imagery—apparently provided by the Persona or Resurs-P2 satellites—that allegedly depict thousands of ISIS oil tankers headed for a Turkish port. At least, that was the Russian claim. Turkey’s president Recep Tayyip Erdogan denied the allegation in no uncertain terms. “Shame on you—those who claim we buy oil from Daesh are obliged to prove it,” Erdogan said, using a slang term for ISIS. “If not, you are a slanderer.”
