I have to question the electrical system on that vehicle running all that equipment. I assume the laser runs off of a storage capacitator for it's shots and is limited by recharge times and equipment temperatures?

Could someone explain to me why the term "Swipe" is used?

WB makes sense to be part of Israel and makes the country more defensible. That is with the majority of the palestinian population removed. Gaza has little strategic value to Israel. Without it's current population, it would be useful, but not critical to Israel like the WB or Golan is.

WB is a messier situation than Gaza. It's very clear the Palestinians have no intention of accepting any compromise Israel puts forward and will use any concession as a base to extract more concessions. The PA is trying to fight a demographic war in the WB and the only answer the Israelis have...

Making a deal with the South Koreans would help there. They seem highly flexible in their manufacturing arrangements. We could get K9's make in SK, but assembled here at an existing facility. Use that deal to expand the facility so you can produce other equipment. I would also buy the rights to...

Back in the 90's on the CCG vessels, if you had no buoy work or training, you were chipping and painting all the time. The level of prep also depends on the type of paint.

i said higher end merchant ships, the various fleets run the gambit that goes from death trap to Starship. merchants try to avoid storms, but they have routes and timetables they must meet. They spend a lot of time at sea. I would agree that they are not as particular as we are in regards to the...

Lot's of the higher end merchant ships are in good repair, despite minimal docking and refits. I have to wonder if they use better coatings and prep work?

Memri provides accurate translations of Arab TV, so people can hear what they actually say. Not sure what planet your on, but Hamas and the Egyptian government have zero love for each other. They had a barely acceptable agreement in the last 5-10 years that Hamas would try not be to active in...

Here in Vancouver, the house is almost immaterial, it is the land that holds the value. Right now, my house could burn down and if insurance refused to pay out, i would still make 4 times what I paid for it by selling just the land.

The majority of domestic Canadians do not work as hard as most immigrants. I know people in the security industry, that routinely work 16hr shifts and study for a degree/certificate so they can move on to a better job. Most of them look on the 40hr work week as "part-time". There will be...

Hamas is the palestinian arm of the Muslim Brotherhood, the group which was kicked out of power by the military and is the sworn enemy of the current government.

Most of the people I know that are speculating and using it as income generators are immigrants, as they are the ones with the money to do so. Part of the reasons they have that money is they work much harder than domestic Canadians and they are more willing to pool family assets than domestic...

Technically correct, but the concept of a house being an investment is quite old. The goal when I was young was to make sure you built equity, because renting meant spending with no gain. Remind me of any business that would adopt that model long term?

Very few of the Gazans are from the events of 1948, as are very few Israeli's and in a decade or so, there will be no one left from those times on either side. The painful reality is that Israel gave up Gaza in the hopes of peace and got 15,000 rockets and Oct 7th in exchange for that, along...

Well might give an excuse to return it back into a temple

Found this webpage of books on RCAF aircraft (and boats) , hope it useful https://www.kestrelpublications.com/shop-online

The majority of immigrants do not go to Timbucktoo, they go to the major centres, which were already stressed in regards to housing. The demographic in my local area is that almost all the houses sold, have been bought by either Chinese or Persians. The Caucasians are either long term residents...

In the 1990's I worked with the SFU Underwater Research Lab, supporting their student experiments with underwater autonomous UAV's. maintaining a useful datalink underwater without a umbilical is hard, even with the technological advances, transmitting video is pretty much impossible over any...
