Are there new fears of a global arms race? – Inside Story




On Thursday, the US military dropped its so-called Mother Af All Bombs on a remote town in eastern Afghanistan, near the Pakistani border.

It targeted a network of tunnels and caves used by a local branch of ISIL.

An Afghan governor said the 10,000kg bomb killed at least 100 fighters.

It is believed to be the most powerful non-nuclear bomb dropped by the US in any battlefield.

And on Saturday, a US government agency announced the successful test of a mock nuclear bomb in Nevada.

It is part of an effort to upgrade one of the nuclear weapons that has been in the US arsenal for decades.

Are America's military actions fuelling an increase in global defence spending?

Countries around the world are increasing their defence spending.

The Stockholm International Peace Research Institute says the US is still the biggest spender when it comes to its military.

It is followed by China, the UK and Russia.

Trillions of dollars are spent every year to get the latest and most advanced military hardware.

But critics say that is leading to an arms race that will have long-term consequences

Russia to begin aircraft carrier upgrade this year





Russia will begin its planned repair and modernization project for its sole aircraft carrier, Admiral Kuznetsov in 2017, according to state media reports.

The carrier, a Soviet vessel that has been in service with Russia's navy since the early 1990s, will be upgraded at the Zverdochka shipyard in Severodvinsk. The operation will take 2 1/2 years.

"The decision to start Admiral Kuznetsov's modernization at Zvezdochka in the first six months of 2017 has been made. The project plan specifying the costs and the amount of work to be performed, will be completed within a couple of months," the TASS news agency reported, quoting an unnamed source. "All works onboard the ship must be finished by 2020."

The source went on to add that a contract has not been signed yet, and the operation could cost the Kremlin as much as $343 million.

The upgrades will aim to modernize electronic warfare, communication, intelligence, combat control and navigation capabilities for the Soviet-era ship.

Admiral Kuznetsov was recently deployed to Syria as part of Russia's anti-terror campaign in the country, according to RT International. Russian President Vladimir Putin said the move is intended to target extremists in the region, not to interfere with Syrian political affairs.

some say it can fly below radar cover almost in complete silence in the night

Also because it flies so damn slow i heard that sometimes radar systems will ignore it as something significant and dismiss it as background noise.

Made of wood also helps,as it acts as a radar-absorbing material (RAM).

What's the story?
