Lockheed-Martin project Falcon

Lockheed-Martin project Falcon

Project Falcon was the testbed for creating ultra-fast and ultra-capable unmanned aircraft for the reconnaissance missions and probably for the attacking purposes. The reason for launching that project was to create technology what allowed to create drone for the missions, what was dangerous and top secret. The system used staged scramjet technology, where lifting off happened by using standard jet engines when the speed was about Mach 1 the ramjet engines started to operate, and when the speed was about Mach 6 to 7 the scramjets or the hypersonic ramjets were started to operate.

The maximum speed of that platform was about Mach 9-12. That kind of recon plane could be safe for the user, and if the missile hits it, it can be destroyed by using explosives. Otherwise, that kind of system can be used to carry small-size smart weapons to the other side of Earth very fast. That thing would give the operator the pin-point accuracy also in the intercontinental operations.

And this kind of hypersonic drone can also be used as the hypersonic cruise missile. If the hypersonic drone is equipped with nuclear weapons, it can rise to airborne, and use in the same missions, with the strategic bomber, it can cruise airborne, and when the alarm comes, that kind of drone can attack against enemy targets same way with normal bombers, but those systems can explode internally installed nuclear detonators.

But if the mission is delayed that kind of drone can return to base. So they have the combined role with cruise missile and strategic bomber. This can be the answer to the challenges of the new era's strategic strike capacity and the threats that missiles like S-300 are given to the new era attack planes. In some scenarios, the attack planes, which operate in the enemy territory would be replaced by robots.

The defensive fighters are operating in own airspace would be manned, which gives them the surprise effect. The artificial intelligence would learn from the actions, what real pilots are doing. The thing is that attack drones that are operated by artificial intelligence can also be used in kamikaze missions. If the bombardment is not effective the drone can just dive and impact to target. Those drones can shot down and that doesn't cause any losses for crews. So that kind of mission can be hidden from the public eye even they are failing.

Plasmonic waves can make new waves in quantum technology.

"LSU researchers have made a significant discovery related to the fundamental properties and behavior of plasmonic waves, which can lead ot the development of more sensitive and robust quantum technologies. Credit: LSU" (ScitechDaily, Plasmonics Breakthrough Unleashes New Era of Quantum Technologies) Plasmonic waves in the quantum gas are the next-generation tools. The plasmonic wave is quite similar to radio waves. Or, rather say it, a combination of acoustic waves and electromagnetic waves. Quantum gas is an atom group. In those atom groups, temperature and pressure are extremely low. The distance of atoms is long. And when an electromagnetic system can pump energy to those atoms. But the thing in quantum gas is that the atoms also make physical movements like soundwaves. It's possible. To create quantum gas using monoatomic ions like ionized noble gas. In those systems, positive (or negative) atoms push each other away. When the box is filled with quantum gas and som...

What is the difference between TR-3A and TR-3B? And are those planes real?

What is the difference between TR-3A and TR-3B? And are those planes real? Is TR-3B (0) "Black Triangle UFO" or is it only the piece of paper? The study project, what is used to create advanced ideas for use of the nuclear-powered aircraft. Or is it the study project or black budget aircraft, where lost 2,3 trillion dollars (1)of the stealth bomber were gone. In this text is things, that might seem very difficult to accept, and when we are thinking about things like doubling the object or making it smaller by using huge layers of energy, nothing denies to test those things. But were those tests successful, there is no data about that in public Internet, so we must say that things like doubling the human or aircraft can be tested, but the results can be unknown. But in the source two is the tale, what seems like impossible, those men, who got Noble Prize put at first time one atom to the box, and hit it with photon one photon in the box and hit it with t...

The interesting coincidence between USS Sea Shadow (1982) and CSS Virginia (1862)

Image I The interesting coincidence between USS Sea Shadow (1982) and CSS Virginia (1862) Far away from its time is the thing, that you might notice when you see those two images. The upper one (Image I) is portraying the modern naval USS Sea Shadow (IX-529)(1) experimental Stealth ship, which was created by Lockheed-Martin, and the image below (Image II) is portraying the CSS Virginia (2), the ironclad from the Civil War Era. The thing why the hull of the CSS Virginia, what is ironclad from 1862 is that the ammunition of the cannons would not transfer their impact energy to the hull of the ship. And the reason why Sea Shadows hull has this form is that it should point the radar echo away from the hull. The thing that I must say that CSS Virginia is far ahead its time because that structure is effective against the explosive ammunition, and the slanting armor of tanks like T-34 and Sherman have made them effective. But for some reason, the use of slanting ...
