But two of the three Scandinavian nations (Sweden, Denmark, Norway) are EU member states. Only Norway isn't: Three out of the five Nordic nations are also part of the EU. Again, Norway isn't, and neither is Iceland. Sweden, Denmark and Finland are EU member nations. Norway subsists mostly...

@Blue Marlin I saw you and Penguin talking about the Ula replacement in the Chinese submarine thread. It's basically this - An Ula class submarine with a redesigned tower and modern processing systems and an upgraded engine. The basic hull design will remain. The current tower: Versus...

I hate being wrong, but I'm no stubborn *ss to argue when I'm beaten either. It does look more like the MK216 then anything else doesn't it? And a marksman version with a different front grip and stock Nice detective work:cheers:. Guess I'll stick to submarines and satellites:D.

1. Astronaut - I still do:crazy_pilot: 2. US President - oh, hell no now:o:. I wouldn't touch that job with a 10 foot pole! 3. A spy - I sort of turned into one of those though my dealings with the USN:D.

A test version of the booster for NASA's new rocket, the Space Launch System, will fire up for the second of two qualification ground tests at 10:05 a.m. EDT (8:05 a.m. MDT) Tuesday, June 28 at prime contractor Orbital ATK's test facility in Promontory, Utah. NASA Television will air live...

I like Chinese-Dragon, Armstrong and I used to troll with him back in the day... but he's as big a troll as both of us:o:!! You wouldn't want either of us to be a mod, but want Chinese-Dragon (Isn't there already two Chinese international mods?)? I'd recommend @Technogaianist , she's a mod on...

Not quite, but not too wrong either. It's an EM52 rocket-assisted moored-mine: They've been around for about 30 years. I've seen them in Iran's arsenal It's similar to the US CAPTOR mine: Being a surface-laid, encapsulated projectile, the EM 52, like the CAPTOR launches a projectile...

One of several designs that would fit the "Partial Ramjet" category. The X-7 helped pioneer the design that would eventually grace the Blackbird: The Blackbird used what could be called a Turboramjet, the J58, which provided higher trust when operating at higher speeds versus lower ones...

Does this count as a watch? I'm dorky enough to rock this look. I don't own a wrist watch, but I do have a pocket watch for when I need to feel fancy.

A prototype 13-kilowatt Hall thruster is tested at NASA's Glenn Research Center in Cleveland. This prototype demonstrated the technology readiness needed for industry to continue the development of high-power solar electric propulsion into a flight-qualified system.

A test version of the Orion spacecraft is pulled back like a pendulum and released, taking a dive into the 20-foot-deep (6.1 meters) Hydro Impact Basin at NASA’s Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia. Crash-test dummies wearing modified Advanced Crew Escape Suits are securely seated...
