    Update: Two soldiers killed, eight others injured following a wild fire at a sniper firing range

    I guess it's feasible. Some large caliber rifles do need to be shot with care; 12.7 mør for instance does produce a large flame, but it's directed away from the ground by the rifle's muzzle break. Notice where the flame goes? Smaller calibers like .338 shouldn't produce enough flame to...

    Amidst tensions with Pakistan, India cleared to buy 24 Seahawk helicopters

    The MH-60 is primarily a sub-hunter, but India's MH-60s will come with one of the most potent anti-ship missiles around today; Norway's NSM. 200+km range, stealth-optimized body and no active seeker making detection extremely difficult, a warhead with blast effects similar to Harpoon despite...

    Amidst tensions with Pakistan, India cleared to buy 24 Seahawk helicopters

    Looks like they'll be armed with Norway's Naval Strike Missile:yahoo:! So far India has order captive training rounds and simulators, but not NSM itself. But that's likely to change real soon. NSM replaced Penguin as the MH-60's primary anti-ship missile. Norway, Japan, Australia, Germany...

    Video Gamers report in!

    What class? I generally go with a hydro/aerothurge wizard. Tornado and teleportation are just too useful to pass up, especially once you wander into areas with deathfog. But recently I've been playing with a tone of class mods and am running a Valkyrie build using Helaene's Valkyrie class mod (I...

    Video Gamers report in!

    Playing CIV 6. It's my lazy day game of choice. I'm digging Canada and Russia, and yes, even Sweden from time to time, but Norge is bae:smitten:. America has to be one of the most potent nations though. I usually play cultural victory and between ski resorts, beach resorts and national parks...

    Combined Space Operations Center Vandenburg has confirmed it's tracking upwards of 250 objects from the 27 March intercept: CSpOC is where the US bases its GBI interceptors for counter-ICBM exercises and where the USAF launches many of its rockets. With ground and space sensors and...

    NASA furious after India missile test risked COLLISION with International Space Station

    Of course it did. Most debris burnt up within 48 hours following the intercept of USA-193, but it took 40 weeks for all debris to be rendered harmless. The US has Orbital Debris Mitigation Standard Practices, which limit where and when an intercept test can occur during peacetime operations...

    Glock: The Gun That Dominates Over All of the Competition?

    I carried one - P80 we designate the Glock 17 - they shoot like a dream. Light, controllable, accurate and reliable. The Glock 17 doesn't really have any downsides.

    Male fertility plummeting across Europe and North America sparking population crisis fears

    I have a daughter and frankly one kid's more then enough:wacko:. I could have another if I really wanted, and have a more then willing partner, but, meh. Too much travel and focus on work, too much interest in spoiling the one I have now, I'd rather just invest my extra time and money into...

    Petrol prices increased to Rs98.89 per litre

    Who said I'm whining? I drive a Tesla. Haven't had a petrol bill in years:enjoy:. Look, every country has its prices for a reason and it's not all about minimum wage or even affordability. Venezuela subsidizes petrol making it one of the cheapest commodities and most affordable for its...

    Vegetarians are 'less healthy and have a lower quality of life than meat-eaters', scientists say

    It's got to be hard for sure. There's a reason the Scandinavian countries favor meats and berries. Fish and currants are about the only things that survive this far north. Joking aside, I've been to Greenland and things actually do grow there. Juniper makes for a great spiced ale or mead and...

    Vegetarians are 'less healthy and have a lower quality of life than meat-eaters', scientists say

    Meat's just sooooo tasty. You haven't lived until you've eaten week old fermented whale blubber... and that's probably because you died trying to stomach boiled sheep's head the week before:lol:. Scandinavians can take any meat or fish and turn it into the most rancid thing ever. Who seriously...

    Petrol prices increased to Rs98.89 per litre

    492,940 rupees per month. But the cost of living in Norway is so high and that salary wont go far outside of smaller towns and cities. A pizza alone cost about 2500 rupees or a gallon of milk 986 rupees. I can't even afford petrol prices, so I went with an electric car, and I make roughly...
