Lockheed Martin’s SR-72, known as “Son of Blackbird,” is reportedly set to have its maiden flight in 2025.

The uncrewed hypersonic aircraft, believed to be a top-secret project for the U.S. Air Force, aims to reach speeds over 4,000 mph (6,437 kph), making it the fastest plane ever developed.

Designed as the successor to the SR-71 “Blackbird,” the SR-72 is expected to be unmanned, hypersonic, and reusable, primarily serving intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) missions, while supporting Lockheed Martin’s High-Speed Strike Weapon (HSSW).

NASA is hosting a virtual watch party for the debut of its X-59 supersonic plane, set to roll out on January 12 at 4 pm ET (2100 UTC) from Lockheed Martin’s Skunk Works hangar in Palmdale, California.

The X-59, a 99-foot-long needle-like, single-engine jet designed to minimize sonic booms, aims to revolutionize supersonic flight.

Delayed to refine capabilities, it will cruise at 55,000 feet, reaching speeds of 925 mph(1488 kph).

NASA plans to study sound patterns, seeking regulatory adjustments for commercial supersonic flights over land, prioritizing safety in the Quesst project. The live broadcast can be watched on the NASA+ streaming service.

[b]The US Army has signed a firm-fixed-price contract with Bombardier Defense (Learjet, Inc.) to acquire a Global 6500 jet aircraft for the High Accuracy Detection and Exploitation System (HADES) project.

The contract, announced on December 12, 2023, includes options for two more Global 6500s within three years. The first aircraft is expected to be delivered on October 1, 2024.

The aircraft, known for its large cabin and 6,600 nautical miles range, will be a prototype for the Aerial Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) platforms.

HADES aims to enhance the Army’s ISR capabilities against peer and near-peer adversaries, providing increased range, speed, endurance, and deep-sensing capabilities.

“HADES will bring the Army increased range, speed, endurance, and aerial ISR depth,” said Colonel Joe S. Minor, project manager for Army fixed-wing aircraft. “HADES will operate at higher altitudes than legacy turboprop platforms. Higher altitudes equate to an ability to sense farther and more persistently into areas of interest. Deep sensing is the Army’s number-one operational imperative for the Army of 2030,” he added.[/b]

During a power outage caused by a storm in south-east Queensland, Australia, a woman used her electric car, a BYD Atto 3, to power her 11-year-old son’s life-saving dialysis machine.

Kristy Holmes, who lives on the Gold Coast, utilized her EV’s massive battery pack, demonstrating the advantage of EVs as power supplies.

The ability of EVs to act as power sources and, in some cases, feeding into the grid offers significant benefits during emergencies or power outages.

“We ran it off the car,” Holmes told The Guardian. “We only needed to use it for the one night. We could have run it for at least four nights and then have to go charge the car somewhere.”

🇮🇱🇵🇸 Former Mossad chief Ephraim Halevy:

"Netanyahu failed to subdue Hamas and must leave now. Sinwar and the Hamas fighters have not lost the will to fight, and that is why they refuse to negotiate.

I was invited to meet the current Mossad chief several times, and I believe our losses are painful."

Something for the museum 🖼️. I commend such technological feats from any country but it's just too much hype with the useless plane.. yes.. useless in the sense that advanced Satellites can do what it does --> Reconnaissance which makes the plane useless. But it'll be beautiful bird for sightseeing tho. That I'm sure of grin grin grin. Other than that, I don't think any American adversary will lose sleep over this.

Masterviolence:

So it's propaganda now that your lovely western media reported the same thing?

So if the guy uses a Chinese or Russian source you'll call it propaganda but if your western source says the same thing you'll say they were paid to do so.

This is quite funny. Do you think your emotions or belief is reality?

This is 2024 and I can factually tell you that The people's republic of china is technologically more advanced than the united state of America.
If you need any proof, visit the both countries to see for yourself rather than using Hollywood and the media to draw your conclusion.
Some of you have never left your father's land but wants to discuss geopolitics.
Smh


😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂.
Factually tell me? Pls drop your facts and sources. Thanks

I cant discuss geopolitics cos I have never left my father's house?😂😂😂😂. so only travellers can discuss geopolitics? Man rest pls.
