Question. Isn't the vote on sending troops to Libya coming tomorrow?

That's not good.

Greece suffered greatly in the aftermath of the world financial crisis of 2007-2008. The government debt crisis ushered a decade of rapid and forceful economic adjustments, and the repercussions were severe. In all, the Greek economy suffered the longest recession of any advanced capitalist...

One program that comes to mind is using the US Excess Defense Articles (EDA) program to procure some 70 OH-58D helicopters (already delivered, about half will be used for operations). There is also some movement on trying to acquire a couple of Arleigh Burkes after a mild MLU, I don't...

This upgrade will cover the 84 F-16 Block 52+ and Block 52+ Advanced HAF operates. The main ticker for the upgrade is the AN/APG-83 SABR AESA radar, but the changes to avionics, sensor fusion, cockpit, networking, weapon and pod certification etc will be substantial too. A future program will...

It would not be improbable to assume that another war of proxies is escalating in Libya. While quite distinct from the Syrian conflict, it needs to be said that the situation bears some resemblance, at least as far as complexity, inter/intra connected interests and general confusion is concerned.

With regards to Wikipedia, articles are traditionally based on almost verbatim passages from reputable secondary sources. Said sources are always provided at the end of an article, and the passages themselves have the citations for them hyperlinked. Wikipedia is never a source in itself...

There is nothing wrong with that, to the contrary. It just seems a bit unrealistic as a pricing goal, given the particulars of the project at hand (specifications and performance). Let's wait and see an official source/estimate.

Excited for this, and glad there is a livestream too. Btw, the payload is very important too, a 7,6t monster of a Com-sat

Watch live: China’s Long March 5 rocket poised for crucial return-to-flight launch December 26, 2019 Stephen Clark - SFN China’s Long March 5 rocket — the country’s most powerful launcher — is set for its third flight Friday on a critical validation mission after a core stage engine failure...

There is no news or data here in Greece about said incident.

Interesting. No idea about its veracity.

Can someone explain to me why China is suddenly in war with the UK in this thread?

Japan to Deploy Destroyer to Middle East The rare overseas mission follows an attack on a Japanese oil tanker and increased American pressure to play a more active role in the region. By Ben Dooley - Dec. 26, 2019 - ΝΥΤ A Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force destroyer during a joint exercise...

My understanding is the notion that "millions" of Uyghurs are detained is as preposterous as the claim that those detained (as many as they may be) are all terrorists or terrorist leaning agitators.

I think this thread has run its course (towards hilarity).

Don't really know how the Kh-101 missile made its appearance in there, but it is almost definitely false (as it's an air-launched missile). My understanding is that Yansen would/could probably field a version of the S-10 Granat (based on the RK-55), unless they have been completely replaced with...

Add a 1 to the front. This sub is absolutely massive. ;)

Kurzgesagt is a classic. Check out their series of videos on the Fermi Paradox, I think you will love them. ;)

D5 doesn't have a published (unclassified) range though.
