Its electromagnetic catapults enter the final phase

by

It is being a busy summer in the Chinese Navy. There are no official ads, but two of their new naval fighters have ‘hunted flying in formation. And these last weeks have appeared indications that China is already finalizing the tuning of the crown jewel military arm: Fujian aircraft carriers. As? Testing their catapults Electromagnetic with real airplanes. And there is a key date for a demonstration of strength: the 80th anniversary of the Japanese defeat in the Second World War. The Fujian. China has the largest naval force in the world, it is something Key in its strategy in the South China Seabut in the aircraft carriers they were late in front of their main rival: United States. Compared to 11 nuclear propulsion aircrafts of the American fleet, China had two (And none with nuclear propulsion, something they still have). The third, built entirely with its technology, is Type 003, known as Fujian. Is part of the Maritime propaganda of the country And, although it has not yet been delivered to the Navy, it has been caught on several occasions performing maneuvers on the high seas and With deck aircraft. And something that the Fujian highlights is to be one of the only two aircraft carriers in the world with Electromagnetic catapults. Electromagnetic catapults. Although huge, the track carrier is not long enough for the ships to take security. That is why the plane is promoted by means of a complex mechanical system composed of cables, pipes and pumps of a hydraulic system. It is expensive and needs high maintenance, but there is an alternative: Emals. Known as “Electromagnetic catapult”, this system is a linear induction engine that, by electromagnets, displaces a piece that hooks the plane and moves at full speed through a raíl, pulling the ship until the end of the track, releasing it at the last moment. Marking muscle (in secret). This system not only allows heavier or more fuel airplanes, but reduce The mechanical tension on the fuselage of the airplanes themselves, prolonging its useful life, occupies less space in the ship and also reduces the maintenance of the launch system. It is a system that He headed up on the other aircraft carriers that mounts it, the already operational Gerald R. Fordbut refined, it is the future of the aircraft carriers. Well, there are indications that China is already testing this electromagnetic system with real airplanes. As we see in The War Zonethe authorities have not yet shown the launch of airplanes from the Fujian, but in recent days they have Images appeared that show airplanes with the post -founded postquelors and in the launch position on the Fujian deck. In addition, images of plane shadows projected in the same cover have been seen. This indicates that it is most likely that China is already launching and recovering airplanes from the Fujian or, at least, is very close to doing so as part of the final tests before delivering the ship for active service at the end of this year. Test aircraft And not so secret. What is official is that China has another new member of the fleet known as the 076 Type. It is an amphibious ship that would be unique in the world by having a large cover that, in one of its parts, also hides an electromagnetic catapult. The ship opened on August 1 with a Pompose ceremonyand the interesting thing about EMALS systems is that they can not only be used to launch airplanes. As they simplify the process of launching aircraft and are a more versatile system than the hydraulic, it can also be used to launch unmanned aerial vehicles, or drones, a segment in which China is also very interested. Type 076 ‘Sichuan’ images Swarm attacks. One of the objectives of the Asian giant is to dominate the South China Sea. It is one of the most tense areas on the planet because it is the one that it shares with Taiwan or India, and we already know that both some as others are fortifying their maritime positions before possible Chinese military maneuvers. The United States also looks closely and That culmination of the modernization program of the fleet restless to Japanwho announced his rearm more ambitious Since World War II. And, in that maritime domain, ships with electromagnetic catapults play a fundamental role in allowing large -scale air operations. Compared to the hydraulic system, the EMALS allows you to launch a plane every 45 seconds, 25% faster than conventional catapults. This favors the adoption of tactics such as “swarm attacks”, or Alpha strikesin which aircraft are launched with a short cadence to saturate and overcome enemy defenses, achieving aerial superiority. China and the US, as usual. In addition to these advantages, it is a system that allows to extend the radius of action of the Naval Force to operate early alert planes and electronic warfare in a deeper way in the oceans. And this technology, as we say, only have both the United States – operating – and China with ships that are about to enter service. And the rest of the world? Well, he is working on it, but at another speed. France, for example, that has a fleet in which Charles de Gaulle is his crown jewel, is developing a system of Emals for Its new generation aircraft carriers that will enter service at some point in the late 2030s. India, which occasionally also Remember China that hashe is investigating it. And the United Kingdom, although he has considered it, has not yet adopted, since he has vertical take -off aircraft. September 3. The rivalry between China and Japan comes from afarbut a good time to officially present advances in the electromagnetic catapults of the Fujian can be this September, when the 80 years of Japan’s defeat in World War II are commemorated. The United States with the launch of two atomic bombs accelerated 6th Japanese surrender and you will be wondering what … Read more

Ukraine has borrowed the most basic idea of ​​Lego. And has transformed it into the final machine for war

by

Drones with shotguns of double cannonrobots Lanzaluelaunmanned vessels With missilesairplanes With shotgunsdevices with kilometer cables of optical fiber Looking for its goal through algorithms … The war in Ukraine became the largest war laboratory of modern contests, but in recent months that transformation has become more palpable than ever. Because soldiers are no longer recruited, they are recruited directly robots. Modular fights. They counted this week In Insider that among the key actors of this unprecedented experimentation of military terrestrial robotics is the company Estonia Milrem Roboticswhose land autonomous vehicle Themis It has been deployed by the Ukrainian forces on the front. The striking, however, is not only the presence of these systems, but the way in which Ukrainian soldiers are using them: unforeseen and highly creative. Kuldar Väärsi, founder of the company, He has highlighted that troops have managed to expand their abilities by adding modifications, adaptations and even using them to Not expected taskssuch as collection of corpses, controlled explosions, supply transport or mines. In a context where each resource can mean life or death, tactical innovation is born directly from the front. Military Lego. The Thanmis model can load up to 1,200 kgmove at 20 km/Hy wearing weapons like machine guns or launcherin addition to acting in evacuation, transport or deactivation tasks. However, its real value lies in its modularity: it is an adaptable system, almost like a set of War Legoaccording to Oleksandr Yabncanka, head of robotized systems of the Da Vini Wolves battalion. Without having specialized models for each mission, the Ukrainian units use a single type of robot as a common basis They modify according to your operational needs. This flexibility reflects a generalized philosophy in the Ukrainian army since the beginning of the conflict: improvise, adapt, survive. Fifth Generation Themis Military reinvention. Since the first year of war, Ukraine has been synonymous with reuse and Technical creativity. He has re -adapted Western lanzamisiles to Soviet platforms, mounted machine guns old in trucks, modified drones Commercial for suicidal missions and created mills such as unmanned ships and turrets with artificial intelligence. Milrem is not the only company at stake: local companies such as Roboneers either FRDMtogether with European signatures such as ARX ​​Robotics (Germany) or Isolit-Bavo (Czech), are actively collaborating in the design and deployment of new models of land robots. This confluence between foreign industry, local operators and tactical demands generates an eInnovation sew that had not been seen before on this scale. The war of the future. Be that as it may, there is a name that has risen above the other models. Bloomberg explained it With a scene: on the wooded banks of the Dnieper River, on the outskirts of kyiv, two small robotic vehicles descend towards the sand as if they were mechanized crabs. One transports food, the other sowing anti -tank mines. It is about Termit modelTangible symbol of how Ukraine, after three and a half years of total war against Russia, has become the forge of a new war paradigm: a war based on modular technology, cheap and fast to produce. In a context of scarcity, urgency and systematic improvisation, the country has managed to create an arms ecosystem that rivals (for its agility and efficiency) with the great industrial powers. Already the 40% of the armament which uses comes from National Sourcesand according to Zelenski, this autonomy can serve as model for allies of NATO that face an increasingly volatile and dangerous geopolitical future. Military production, as he says Oleksandr Kamyshin experthas become the oil of Ukraine, the resource on which its survival is constructed. Ukrainian Termit Models Robot and converted engineers. The case dE Maksym Vasylchenko embodies the metamorphosis of the country. In 2022 he worked by installing food machinery for international companies; today directs Tencorea startup that has developed The Termitthose modular robots that already use more than twenty military units in the front. With satellite connectivity Via Starlink and load transport capacity, evacuation of wounded or deployment of mines, these vehicles They have replaced to soldiers in areas of maximum risk, not only because they are more expendable, but for its lower cost: a basic termit It costs $ 20,000while the death of a soldier supposes the State a nearby total compensation at 380,000. A different company. Of five initial employees to early 2024Tencore has grown to 175 workers, six venues, and projections of 80 million dollars In annual income. All driven by direct collaboration with combatants: a chat with forty active users serves as a constant feedback channel, where every five or ten minutes suggestions are provided. This agility, impossible in the processes of acquiring Western governments, is one of the keys to the success of the Ukrainian model. An army of termit ready for operations An area of ​​death. We have coming counting: The war in Ukraine has established a new operational environment dominated by low cost drones. Approximately the 70% of the Russian team destroyed has fallen by unmanned vehicles, many of them converted commercial adaptations. These FPV units already operate in almost any climatic condition, deliver blood in trenches or attack tanks with surgical precision. The battlefield has become constant, immediate and three -dimensional, expanding the call Kill Zone At any time and place. At the beginning of June, Ukraine demonstrated its offensive capacity coordinated to the destroy bombers strategic in Russian bases that went from the north of the country to Siberia. The traditional logic of the front has been replaced by a decentralized war where the direct human risk is reduced to the minimum possible thanks to autonomous, fast and sacrifiable platforms. The Russian answer. Of course, Moscow has not lagged behind. As We have spoken For weeks, ha adapted the drones Iranian Shahed to your needs and has begun to display vehicles Fiber cable guided optics, which makes them immune to electronic interference. In May, the Russian production of combat drones increased 17% In a single month. The Russian strategy is clear: standardization, volume and industrial … Read more

Xi Jinping has just decreed the final technological divorce with the United States

by

Nvidia engineers have almost ended the development of a GPU with Blackwell microarchitecture with a single purpose: power replace chip h20 They cannot sell in China. The US Department of Commerce vetoed such exports, so the firm led by Jensen Huang He looked for an exit with a chip adapted to government demands. TSMC is expected to start making this GPU this month, but That effort may even help. Not that Nvidia is fighting with the Absolute distrust of US legislators: China is turning its back. As indicated In SCMPthat chip for the Chinese market is not ready. In the conference for investors that Jensen Huang gave last week he indicated that “the key is to understand the limits and know if we can develop interesting products that can remain useful for the Chinese market. We have nothing to announce at the moment, but we are considering it.” Xi Jinping wants to eliminate the US software and hardware dependence, and is on its way to get it Huang made a surprise trip to China when the veto was announced to those exports in mid -April, and met with several senior Chinese officials to express their commitment to this market. The new chip that theoretically prepares for China will be significantly cheaper than H20but those statements of the CEO of Nvidia already made it clear that it would not be based on said microarchitecture. For Nvidia that effort is logical: during the last fiscal year that ended on January 26, 2025, China represented about 13% of its global income: about 17,000 million dollars. It is the third best client of the company, only behind the US and Taiwan, but the sanctions that the United States government is deploying were one of the great threats to Nvidia’s survival in the Asian giant. The other is even more worrying. Xi Jinping made clear in a session with the Chinese politician that China’s goal is to “deduct” the country’s technologies set Meanwhile, China continues to work tirelessly to completely eliminate its traditional United States dependence in this segment. Companies that are designing GPUS for games and artificial intelligence (AI), and the Chinese government is subsidizing them remarkably after US sanctions. Companies like HuaweiMetax, Biren Technology, Moore ThreadsInnosilicon, Zhaoxin, Iluvatar Orex, Deglinai, Lisuan Technology Or Vastai Tech work in that field. In fact, the problem for Huang and Nivdia is that Xi Jinping made clear in a session With the Chinese politician that China’s objective is to “deduct” the country’s technologies set. All the development of China, both software and hardware, must end up depending on solutions developed in the country. Thus, no matter the efforts that Nvidia can do to create chips adapted to the Chinese market: the president of China wants to depend only on Chinese technology To boost the development of your AI, and that means a worrying news for Nvidia.

Bilbao has been filled with English fans by the Europa League final. And is being shattered accordingly

by

The football party that is lived these days in Bilbao, where Tottenham and Manchester United will play this afternoon The Europa League UEFA Finalhas come accompanied by something more than sport, emotion and healthy rivalry. Although It is not the dominant tonic Among the thousands of fans who have arrived from the United Kingdom to enjoy the game, some Hooligans have left vandalism scenes, fights and chaos, which has forced Ertzaintza to mobilize. It has happened In Bilbaobut also in other more or less close locations, such as San Sebastián or even Santander. It is face B (much less friendly) of the grand final. Bilbao, capital of British football. Between Bilbao and London there are approximately one thousand kilometers in a straight line and yet the Basque city is today the great capital of British (but European). The San Mamés state will host this afternoon, from nine, The Europa League UEFA Final that will play Tottenham and Manchester United. It is an planned appointment (the protagonists were missing, of course) from July 2021when UEFA announced that it would compensate Bilbao for the withdrawal of rights of The Eurocup 2020 (marked by the pandemic) with the final of the European competition of 2025. Four years later the date has arrived. And with her, as expected, a massive landing of fans of the two teams that will be measured on the grass to lift the cup: Manchester and Tottenham. Click on the image to go to Tweet. Soccer and something else. It has rarely been so easy to hear conversations in English through the streets of Bilbao. Only in San Mamés it is calculated that there will be 49,600 spectators (At least 15,000 followers of each team, another 11,000 neutral and 8,600 distributed by UEFA), although some estimates point out that the landing of British fans who have arrived in the Basque Country these days is much higher. How much? There is who speaks of 50,000 people, who raises that figure above 55,000 and who even slides that the number of mobilized followers could around 80,000. Most of them have been dedicated in recent hours to enjoy quietly from Bilbao or even cities like San Sebastián and Vitoria-Gasteizwhere they stay to avoid the very high prices that hotels have reached in the Biscayan capital. Among British fans there is also another less peaceful profile: hooligans who have dedicated themselves to Slop urban furniture and terraces, Built neighbors either be punching and kickingwhich has even forced to mobilize Ertzaintza. What exactly has happened? Arrives with a look at Instagram, Facebook either X To check it. For hours on the networks you can see videos and images of English Hooligans leaving chaos and vandalism scenes. In Bilbao a group of fans concentrated in the area of ​​Mr. Poza on Tuesday to destroy two traffic lights between songs. And it was not the only controversial scene. The fans also climbed a scaffold to approach the balcony of a house in the historic center. To scare the Hooligans, the owner, visibly altered, had to go out with a cane. Click on the image to go to Tweet. Incidents in San Sebastián and Santander. In the old part of Donostia they also lived Moments of tension Yesterday night, when different groups of fans began to rebuild each other. The result was a massive fight with punches, people on the floor and garbage cubes overturned during which glasses and tables flew. The Basque newspaper Precise that the situation calmed down after Ertzaintza appeared in the area. The regional press even Informs fights Among British fans in Santander bars. A final with hangover. It is not the first time that incidents occur like this during a great soccer final, both in Spain and abroad. Just a month ago there was clashes Between Ultras of FC Barcelona and Real Madrid before the final of the Copa del Rey held in Seville and just a year ago, on the eve of the Europa League final 2023/2024 played in Dublin between the Atalanta of Italy and the Bayer Leverkusen, the Irish authorities deployed an important Security device. Another scene that has occurred in recent days in Bilbao (and other parts of the Basque Country) and is not new is the prices of accommodation fired by an international sports event. Last week the Eitb.eus chain I pointed That flights from London had doubled their prices, reaching stratospheric levels, while hotels, hostels and apartments offered fifteen or twenty times above normal rates for these dates. “I’ll sleep on the street”. Although in part those prices of up to four figures are explained by the operation of the hotels and The operation Of the reserve websites, its impact among fans who have come to the Basque Country is clear. An amateur Chipriot He explained yesterday to The mail His experience: “I arrived last night and slept in a hotel. I paid 180 euros for the room, but today they asked a thousand. So today I sleep at another hotel: 315 euros the room. For tomorrow they asked for 700, so tomorrow … tomorrow I will sleep on the street.” Images | Tiktok and X In Xataka | In 2017, Liverpool signed a star footballer.

Byd, Catl and Huawei fight for the final electric car charger

by

“Load 400 kilometers in five minutes.” That was the phrase that starred in the media. Justly. In fact, in Xataka We also cover the news of the last great novelty of Byd, a recharge for electric cars capable of filling the batteries at the same rate as a hose full of gasoline the deposit of a combustion car. The announcement arrived last March as another sample of to what extent The Chinese electric car is one step ahead. Especially as far as recharge costs and proposals are concerned. Little more than a month later, we have already seen two other proposals that point in the same direction. China ahead in electric cars recharge When Byd presented his ultra -grape loaders, we did not imagine that a war on the technology of the recharge of electric cars in such a short time would be opened. As if they already had their prepared proposal and Byd’s announcement had accelerated the plans for their announcement, Catl and Huawei have had to show their cards. On April 21, the Chinese company Catl He presented his latest innovations in his Tech Day. There they highlighted that they already had a sodium battery (One of the great promises to reduce the electric car) that they hope to produce this year, although in the month of December. They assure that it is an energy accumulator especially resistant to cold, Another problem of this type of technology. And although they put the focus on their batteries for plug -in hybrids with autonomies of 1,500 kilometers adding what was contributed by the battery and the combustion engine, the most interesting thing was the presentation of a battery that can assume the 520 kilometers recharge in five minutes. After the presentation of Byd, From catl They rose the commitment to an energy accumulator capable of supporting 1.3 MWh loads. That is, an amount slightly higher than that presented by Byd, leaving the figure in 2.5 kilometers loaded per second. In addition, Catl not only boasted of a Recharge extremely fastit also made it clear that they were able to sustain this power at a temperature of 10 degrees below zero, from 5% to 80% of the total capacity in just 15 minutes. And they stressed that it is capable of delivering 830 kW of power (more than 1,000 hp) even when electricity is very close to completely running out. Keep in mind that the speed shown in the homologations of an electric car can differ slightly depending on the load with which the battery has. If the battery is low of loading, it usually delivers less power, the recovery or accelerations from slower standing are. These batteries, just like those of Byd, have the problem that to load that power they need a charger that can deliver that stream of energy. To do this, in ByD they say they will deploy their own network of loaders, with 4,000 recharge points capable of delivering up to 1,360 kW of power. To do this, loaders use a liquid cooling system and, to get an idea, they are figures higher than those announced so far to load electric trucks. However, these figures are lower than shown by Huawei during the presentation of its new loaders for electric cars. The Chinese company presented its new plugs, capable of delivering 1.5 MW or 20 kWh of energy at minute. That is, with the right conditions and battery, a car could load 500 kilometers of autonomy in five minutes. Huawei states that he is able to sustain this power for 15 minutes with his new loaders, which makes them especially interesting for electric trucks. In addition, they say they can operate this power between -30ºC and 60ºC and have a dynamic management of the load delivered so as not to saturate the network and balance the power delivered to the maximum possible without knocking down the electrical installation. The biggest problem of this type of loaders is that they need a huge space for installation but, saved this obstacle, except for exceptions such as byd there are no cars capable of supporting this power. Right now, the fastest recharging vehicles do between 250 and 300 kW so there are no cars that benefit from them. And, despite everything, with that power a car with a battery of 100 kWh (of the largest in the market), would be passed from 10 to 80% of the autonomy available in about 14 minutes. With that 70% of recharged autonomy in less than a quarter of an hour, a car of that size would be recovering about 350 real kilometers if it meets a realistic consumption of 20 kWh/100 km. Interesting? There are doubts that such a high load power is interesting from a purely practical point of view. This same idea is what they hold from Mercedeswho ensure that current standards are more than enough but make it clear that they are aware of the importance of offering this warranty To customers. It is not so much a substantial improvement of what is already had as a positive reinforcement to the client. Entering the fight for offering the most advanced loaders in the market is a brand image, demonstrating that you are at the forefront and give the customer a more purchase incentive although, finally, never use it or do it very promptly.

Nintendo Switch 2 is no longer a toy, it is the closest to the final hybrid console

by

Nintendo has presented the Switch 2a console that respects the original concept, but that is far from what it offered us The first generation. Nintendo has never cared that switch was a toy that moved games in 720p resolution: I knew I was going to sell the same. But 2025 is not a year to launch a poor power console, and photography has changed completely. Switch 2 is no longer a console whose specifications can be ridiculed. It is a laptop with desktop soul. But a real desktop. A heart of Nvidia. The original Nintendo Switch had a processor Tegra of Nvidiathe same as Nvidia Shield. This generation repeat processor manufacturer and, although they have not transcended technical details about it, it once again has a tegra. One capable of moving graphics of up to 1080 120 fps in the console, and 4k 60 fps in desktop mode. In other words, the switch finally has a decent resolution to compete with the best. First level consoles such as X and PS5 series support 120 fps but, being realistic, the catalog that supports this refreshment rate is minimal. 4k 60p is the standard, and switch finally meets it. A level catalog. ‘Star Wars: Outlaws’, ‘Cyberpunk’ or ‘The Duskblood’ are just some examples of a new era for switch. One in which the console that once was a toy can move triple. PS5 and Xbox One X. (It will be especially interesting to compare it with One S), but there is undoubtedly a key here: it is finally time to compare the switch with a desktop console. To this we must add both the retrocompatibility with Switch 1 games and the emulation capabilities to which Gamecube is now added. Triple A price, for games and console. 90 euros. It is the price that Mario Kart World ‘will have for Nintendo Switch 2. The rest of the games can wait for the 80 euros, 20 euros more than the classics 59.99 euros that we could buy games for the first generation. With a price of 469.99 euros without games, Switch competes directly in the league of the most top of the market. The key? Nintendo does not go directly for that market, he has his own, and now he has more arguments than ever to convince. For almost all. Buying Switch 1 was to launch a clear message: Import Nintendo, not the graphic quality. Nintendo Switch 2 ends completely with this, now becoming the hybrid par excellence to play some triple A deliveries (the initial catalog is and aims to remain reduced), but also to what Nintendo does remain Nintendo: its own titles. To play this type of deliveries in portable console the price is high: rivals as The Rog Ally X are going to 799 euros. More powerful, yes. Without switch versatility, too. Only time will determine the success of this new switch. What is clear is that Nintendo has understood that hardware and performance matter and, finally, we have that switch we deserved.

In full nervousness for the cutting of submarine cables, China has a final weapon: a radio in steroids

by

The Submarine cables They are one of the most important elements today. Not only is it a huge infrastructure that organizations and companies continue to develop -with such ambitious projects as the Meta cablewhich will take more than one return to the earth-but have become today thanks to the Ukraine War already maneuvers at the South China Sea. It is in this conflict that Some cut cables They have triggered the fear of running out of the Internet, and everything that implies. These cables are protected, but can be damaged by ships. Now, China has presented a device designed with a task in mind: cut underwater cables. And it is the first time that someone announces that he has a tool capable of interrupting critical underwater networks. The importance of cables. There are more than 1.4 billion meters of submarine cables that connect all countries. There are other thousands of kilometers planned, and the vast majority of communications in some countries depend on these cables. 95% of them in the case of Australiafor example, and I know esteem that 95% of the data managed by the American population and 75% by China depend on them. They are vital for the Internet and all that this implies, such as streaming, artificial intelligence or servers, and this year they have become protagonists in war scenarios. Countries in conflict have realized that they can cause great damage by cutting these cables by boats or through more sophisticated techniques, such as Sound attacks. There are times that They are simple accidentsbut the suspicion that a damaged underwater cable corresponds to an enemy attack is something that is there. And more now with what they just announced from China. The Chinese device. As we read in South China Morning Postthe State Key Laboratory of Deep Water Crewing Vehicles and the Scientific Research Center of Ships of China, have developed a tool that describe as “compact” and that is capable of cutting the most sophisticated underwater communication lines or energy in the world. As it is a tool designed specifically for this, it has been conceived to cut cables at depths of up to 4,000 meters. There are no cables right now that they are in such depth, but its creators have provided the device with a completely sealed titanium alloy housing to resist that enormous pressure. This is Haidu, and can carry this “radial” Your weapons. The device is equipped with a kilowatt engine and as a cutting tool uses a 150 millimeter diamond wheel that rotates at 1,600 revolutions per minute. Let’s say it is the mixture between a protected drone to endure very high pressures and a radial. This cutting tool allows to destroy up to armored cables that have steel layers, rubber and polymeric coating. And its form has been designed so that it can be integrated both in manned and non -manned submersibles of China. For example, haidou vehicles or Fondouzhe could have this as one of their tools. He Haiduas a curiosity, it is an unmanned submersible in the form of fish and eyes drawings and fins created for exploration. He Fendouzhe It is a manned submarine, also for research and exploration. World Order. As we say, threaten to cut underwater cables It is not something new. We have seen it in the Ukraine War, but it is the first time that a country officially reveals a tool designed exclusively for that task. Of course, those responsible affirm that the tool has been created for civil purposes. Which is it? Rescue and mining operations in the maritime bed, but it is evident that it is a tool that is surely causing the other neck itching in rulers around the world. It is clear that such a tool can destabilize communications in a crisis and be used strategically during an attack. And it is not only communication, but everything that has to do with the Internet, such as servers and services that depend on them. Debate and consequences. When a cable is cut, communications are rapidly redirected through another, since they are prepared to have a large bandwidth. Therefore, important interruptions are not usually produced, but that cable You have to repair itbeing a fairly expensive process. Now, when it is not a single cut cable, but several, that connection may be set. It is what has led to a debate about the need to protect infrastructure. NATO has launched The mission “Baltic Sentry” To patrol sensitive regions with airplanes, drones and warships. There are also companies that are offering advanced cable monitoring services, answering all measures to a single issue: the protection of infrastructure and early detection to prevent cuts. That there are countries that have already made public that have sophisticated tools for cutting submarine cables and interfering with world geopolitics, is a new headache.

The ultrasecure aerial capsule that the US usually uses as an alternative to the “final judgment plane”

by

He E-4B Nightwatchbetter known as the “final judgment plane”, is a key piece of the National Military Command System. It is a modified version of the Boeing 747-200, such as the presidential planeequipped with meeting rooms and advanced communications systems, essential to execute emergency orders and coordinate the Armed Forces in case the ground command and control centers are inoperative. In addition, this plane is usually used by the Secretary of Defense on its trips abroad, guaranteeing connectivity and command capacity according to the organization of the country’s armed forces. But what happens if no E-4B is available? This is an expected scenario and for which there is an alternative. If the E-4B cannot fly, the C-17 comes into action There are multiple reasons why E-4B may not be operational: routine maintenance, technical failures or even deployments in crisis situations. Even if any of the four copies of the fleet were in a position to fly, it is possible that the authorities decide not to use it for strategic reasons. In those cases, high -importance passengers, called VVIP in English, can move in the C-17 Globemaster III. An E-4B Nightwatch (above), a C-17 GlobeMaster III (below) Here we enter a known field. It is a colossus of four engines originally designed by McDonnell Douglas and whose legacy continues under Boeing. Its robustness is undeniable, but its interior is far from offering an adequate environment for VVIP. The load warehouse lacks connectivity and does not have work stations. To solve this problem there is Silver bulleta kind of capsule that makes the C-17 a transport suitable for high controls. Military personnel install a silver bullet in a C-17 GlobeMaster III When this alternative is activated, The Air Mobility Command and the 89th maintenance group install a silver bullet inside a C-17. The process involves moving the capsule with a trailer, ensuring it in the plane’s cellar and connecting a complex umbilical cable system that guarantee the Safe communication. Jens Stoltenberg in a silver bullet (left), Pete Hegseth inside another (right) Over the years, various images have allowed to take a look inside this ultrasegura capsule. In 2017, the then NATO general secretary, Jens Stoltenberg, He shared a photograph of a meeting inside the silver bullet. More recently, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth appeared in a video posted in X from inside. The space is reduced but functional: wooden panels, brown leather seats, telephones and safe computers, a bathroom and even a microwave. However, Your time is counted. The Air Force plans to replace these capsules, designed decades ago, by most advanced versions With better connectivity, more current shots, bedrooms and conferences rooms with capacity for up to nine people.
