Οι “πρωταθλητές των όπλων” για το 2019
epa07095457 A handout picture provided by the British Ministry of Defence (MOD) showing British test pilot Peter Wilson, conducting the worlds first SRVL in the North Atlantic, 13 October 2018, (issued 15 October 2018). The MOD report first ever Shipborne Rolling Vertical Landing (SRVL) has been carried out by an F-35B Lightning II joint strike fighter jet conducting trials onboard the UK’s new carrier HMS Queen Elizabeth. The UK is the only nation currently planning to use the manoeuvre, which will allow jets to land onboard with heavier loads, meaning they won’t need to jettison expensive fuel and weapons before landing. Previously the jets have conducted vertical landings, coming to a hover to the side of the ship, translating sideways over the deck, before gently lowering to land on. It is regarded as a safer method to reduce speed before the jet lands on in this way, rather than landing on at speed, coming to a stop before it runs out of deck. An SRVL uses a different approach, with the jet using a more conventional landing pattern, approaching the ship from the aft end, at speed, using the thrust from the nozzle and lift created by air over the wings to touch down and come to a stop as soon as possible. The landing, conducted by BAE Systems UK test pilot Peter Wilson, took place at exactly 1030 off the east coast of the USA. Landing 755 yards back from the end of the carrier’s ski jump, the jet came to a complete standstill at the 580 yard mark.

A mockup of the quantum radar developed by China Electronics Technology Group Corporation (CETC) is on display during the 12th China International Aviation and Aerospace Exhibition, also known as Airshow China 2018, in Zhuhai city, south China's Guangdong province, 8 November 2018. China revealed a prototype of an advanced quantum radar that is resistant to jamming and may be able to detect stealth aircraft. The system's operation is rooted in proven science and could be game-changing, but the Chinese still face significant development challenges in turning it into an operational capability. The state-owned China Electronics Technology Group Corporation (CETC) brought a mockup of their quantum radar, which might have also been only a smaller scale model, to the biennial Zhuhai Airshow, which opened on November 6, 2018, and has a wide array of military technology on display. CETC says that its 14th Research Institute has been working on the system for years and first tested it in 2015. Photo: AFP
