Silvus Technologies announced that they have received a contract worth up to $13.1 million to develop a distributed beamforming solution that will be critical to DARPA’s vision. As noted by the company, under the Resilient Networked Distributed Mosaic Communications (RN DMC) program, Silvus will develop a beamforming/beamnulling solution that will enable reliable and resilient long range terrestrial communications utilizing multiple collaborative radios distributed over large distances – an integral component to DARPA’s vision for the future of Mosaic Warfare. RN DMC stems from DARPA’s investment in mosaic warfare, a concept in which large numbers of lower-cost systems, referred to as “tiles,” […]
Much has changed since the Cold War, including the main priorities and threats to NATO countries and their weapons systems. And apparently, Chinese main battle tanks have become the primary targets for the modern U.S.-made anti-tank guided missile (ATGM) system. An intriguing post on Twitter suggested that the Pentagon’s No.1 weapons supplier Lockheed Martin Corp and his partner Raytheon Co., one of the world’s largest defense contractors, have a sense of humor and began to use the image of the Chinese tank as the number one target for their Javelin systems. – ADVERTISEMENT – CONTINUE READING BELOW – Shared on the […]

Trump senior campaign adviser Jason Miller blasted Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer—a target of a recent kidnapping plan by extremist militia members—shortly after her Thursday afternoon press conference discussing the foiled plot, claiming she has “hatred in her heart” towards President Donald Trump.

A trade deal between India and the United States has been pending since last November. While the US wants more access to India’s dairy and meat market, India wants restoration of the Generalised System of Preferences (GSP) which the Trump administration withdrew last June.

The target we have set of $500 billion […]
SEATTLE—As demonstrations swept America last month in response to prosecutors failing to charge police for killing Breonna Taylor in Kentucky, hundreds of protesters here mobilized for their latest confrontation with cops.

The crowd slowly retreated, some with their arms raised. But Camillo Massagli, known to local activists and admirers as “Trumpet Man,” decided he wasn’t moving.

The US State Department has gone after all sorts of entities over the years – sovereign nations, democratically elected governments, you name it.

In a prerecorded video introducing former Vice President Joe Biden, Hunter Biden appeared alongside sister Ashley Biden to describe the Democratic nominee as both a father and a leader. “He’ll be there when you need him,” Hunter Biden said. “He’ll get […]

In the days since The New York Times broke the news on U.S. intelligence examining claims of Russian bounties being offered to kill American military personnel in Afghanistan, President Donald Trump has turned his ire not at the Russian government, but instead on two of his favorite enemies: the news media and their confidential sources. According to two people familiar with the matter, the president in recent days has privately expressed—“rather loudly,” in the words of one of the sources—his desire for a leak investigation into how that story ended up in the Times, and his wish for the leaker or […]
New Delhi (Sputnik): India’s Gross Domestic Product growth to 3.1 percent in Q1 2020 compared with 4.7 percent in Q4 2019. At 3.1 percent, GDP growth is almost half the 5.8 percent seen in Q1 2019. India’s fiscal deficit in the first two months of the current financial year (April – May) stood at $61.67 billion. This is 58.6% of the budgeted target for the current fiscal year (April 2020 – March 2021). The data shows that the government has stepped up expenditure even as revenue is subdued, accounting for higher deficit. Fiscal data released by the government on Tuesday indicates that during […]
We reported a month ago that recent riots in the US in many Democrat-led cities around the country are hardly spontaneous. They are coordinated. The groups behind these riots are linked to communists, Islamic groups and the Democrat party. A major problem is that many US politicians, the mainstream media and companies are complying and supporting this hijacking. There clearly was no reason for the mass riots taking place around the country after the death of George Floyd at the hands of the police in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Everyone who saw the police brutality was appalled and outraged at the sight of […]
