SIRTAP como sinónimo de todo lo que está mal en nuestros desarrollos y adquisiciones Y tienen la desfachatez de presumir de primer vuelo en 2026 DOSMIL VEINTISÉIS Su equivalente yanki voló por primera vez en 2001, alguno de los que salen en el video no había nacido
New milestone achieved! The #Airbus U850 #SIRTAP has successfully completed its first taxi at the @EjercitoAire Getafe Air Base runway, right next to our facilities. During this taxi test, the aircraft is fully controlled from the ground control station. The test verifies the correct integration and performance of the braking system, steering function, navigation sensors, and commands from the control station itself. Why is this key? It confirms the seamless interaction between hardware, software, and vehicle dynamics. It also validates the aircraft's ability to maneuver safely on the ground before progressing to high-speed taxi trials and the subsequent flight test campaign. We are one step closer to the first flight! Stay tuned.

Russia's tank reserve is almost overNew satellite images reveal that the Kremlin's vast stockpile of Soviet tanks has shrunk dramatically. Of the over 7,300 tanks that were in stock before the 2022 invasion, only about 81 practically usable tanks now remain, according to OSINT analysis. Over 60% of the stockpile has already been looted. What remains are mostly old rusty T-54/55 and T-62 from the 1950s-70s that have been sitting outside for decades without maintenance. Lieutenant Colonel Palle Ydstebø (Norwegian Military Academy): "The Soviet army is scorched." Russia has already lost over 4,400 tanks (confirmed), and the new ones that are coming are mostly refurbished scrap from the past. They have been forced to switch to motorcycles, infiltration and small groups instead of large armored attacks. It is no longer a question of whether Russia has a reserve - it is a question of how long it will last.

It’s still a problem as the E-7 and the F-22 don’t have MADL today. But it’s first and foremost a political issue about getting approvals to install MADL, it’s not really a technical issue. Lockheed is selling a version of the Sniper pod that allows legacy jets to use MADL.

Putin poisons his opponents and throws some out of windows to their deaths. Be glad Putin is not bombing your city.
I think you’re a bad man leading America in the wrong direction. Putin does more for his country than Trump does for ours.

Oh wait, algún ruido se ha caído del guindo finalmente. Y mucho antes podría haber caído, cuando los hindúes abandonaron el programa después de ver el resultado.
Russian milblogger Maxim Kalashnikov: "If the Su-57 is truly a superior combat aircraft to the much-discussed F-35, then where is it in Ukraine? The Israeli Air Force has used F-35s against Iran as if there were no air defenses at all. They struck surface-to-air missile systems and hit critical targets with precision. But do we see the Su-57 carrying out similar missions in Ukraine? No. It's mostly drones and missiles. The Su-57 doesn't even appear to be following up after those attack waves. In the end, what matters is performance, not rhetoric. We've already had more than enough words." Well, there’s not much to add—he’s basically saying what I’ve been pointing out for a long time and quite often already 🤌

Janitor almost got fired after CCTV caught him sneaking into a gorilla enclosure. The gorilla had been brought in after poachers raided her home, leaving her injured and unconscious before locals found her and helped send her to a sanctuary to recover. For weeks, she didn’t trust anyone. She would take her food, go straight to the corner, and eat alone like every person near her was another threat. But security cameras had been catching something for days. The janitor had been going inside her enclosure, sitting with her, talking softly, and showing her kindness through small gestures. He wasn’t forcing anything. He was just trying to let her know not every human was there to hurt her. Nobody really noticed until the board reviewed the surveillance footage to check on her progress. That’s when they caught him. At first, they were ready to fire him for breaking the rules. But as they kept watching the footage, they realized something. The gorilla wasn’t healing because of the enclosure. She wasn’t healing because of the food. She was healing because she had finally built a bond with someone. And for now, that was all that mattered.

Pues eso, parece que no hay pirate en los halcon, confirmación de lo que se ha dicho todos estos años de que el pirate es muy limitado y se usa poco Viendo encima que en UK no vale para C-UAS y tienen que llevar el litening con los APKWS
Un piloto que entrevisté el otro día me dijo que los T4 ya no lo llevan.

Genial artículo de @robeslo . Creo que no le pongo ni un pero. El CATOBAR no tiene sentido por tiempos, comonalidad de plataforma y por avión que ponerle encima. Una Armada con 3 LHD/A nos daría una flexibilidad y capacidad al alcance de muy, muy pocos. Una marina top 8.

A shocking moment was caught on surveillance cameras at Westport Pier. A man threw a black sports bag into the water and quickly disappeared. Nearby, a homeless man noticed the bag moving in the water. Without hesitation, he jumped into the cold water to save whatever was inside. When he reached the bag and opened it, he found a tiny puppy inside. The puppy was wet, frightened, and struggling to move. The man wrapped the puppy in his own jacket to keep it warm until help arrived. Even though he was freezing and soaked himself, he focused on protecting the puppy. When people asked why he risked his life, he simply said:
“I am here because of my choices. The dog did not choose this.” The puppy survived and is now recovering safely. Many people online are trying to find the man and thank him for his bravery and kindness. This story reminds us that compassion can come from unexpected places. Sometimes people with the least still choose to give the most.

Hablé con ZAPATERO ANTES DE QUE FUERA INVESTIDO. Mintió desde el primer día 🤥 Nos recibió en Ferraz a varios de Basta Ya. Queríamos hablar de sus planes futuros. Lo que nos dijo: 1️⃣ La política del Pacto Antiterrorista con el PP continuaría sin cambios, incluida la ilegalización de HB. 2️⃣ No pactaría nada anticonstitucional con el PNV. Su mujer no entendía al nacionalismo y no le dejaría (sic) 3️⃣ Habría más apoyo que nunca a la movilización cívica contra ETA y a las víctimas, que admiraba muchísimo; él también había corrido delante de los grises (sic) Pero nos llevamos muy mala impresión. Todo sonaba falso e hipócrita. Pronto pudimos ver que era la impresión acertada🚨 Meses después hablamos con su nuevo ministro de Interior, el juez José Antonio Alonso. Ya había empezado el giro hacia ETA y queríamos explicaciones. Volvió a mentir, aunque más nervioso. Estaba claro que hacían exactamente lo contrario. Pero lo mollar no es que Zapatero mintiera, sino que a su partido y apoyos empresariales y mediáticos les parecía perfecto. Al PP de Rajoy también le pareció muy bien. La oposición era insignificante y reducida a lo moral. En poco tiempo el PSOE se libró de Nicolás Redondo, y el PP de María San Gil. Estoy convencido de que lo tenían acordado para no pisarse la manguera. En ese momento comenzó la imparable caída hacia la corrupción actual. No engañó a nadie, todos se dejaron engañar porque les convenía.
Zapatero o la elevación de los peores. Su historia, como la de Sánchez, revela lo fácil que resulta trepar a lo más alto en España con la mezcla de ignorancia, indecencia e inmoralidad propias del personaje. share.google/U7YKyMU55VSXnsB…

No vale hoy criticar a Luis de la Fuente ¡Cuántas veces, en los últimos años, hemos visto el 11 del Madrid sin casi ningún jugador español! Además, los españoles que ha fichado el Madrid no han estado a la altura. ¡A ver si aprendemos!
