British Police get E-Bikes!

 £16,000 pound bikes to get into narrow places?

With the rise of electric powered vehicles and the deployment of drones, the E-Bike has arrived and it will prove it-self on various estates as a real winner over crime!

These new bikes of course have been adapted from civil use to police and will be used to intercept criminals on the run, with the rise of phone crime and the theft of bikes, this a really invaluable assit to the forces across the home nations and also eventual further afield?

Speed is not known, neither is the use of cameras more so with stabilization as yet, but in other countries such as Brazil this system is working well, even in civil disturbances, demonstrations and other!

The horrors of drone Warfare!

 Being hunted down?

A new development has come to the fore in the use of drones, that involves landing on a individual with an explosive device!

It is believed what the IDF is using the drones in Lebanon, which originated in the Ukraine by he forces to take out Russian soldiers, with the cheap ability to mass produce and develope a small device that can be made cheaply a new era in urban warfare has began?

Meanwhile the Hezbollah have also taken advantage of the situation with a large bomb drone, that causes considerable damage and is hitting targets in N-Israel with effectiveness!

U.K. No Air-defense Cover!

 The Bloodhound Last!

We once lead the world in military production, but with joining the European union and having various Labor parties in government, we have lost out in many areas including air defense, because NATO relied on the U.S.

But now that relations have soured with the U.S. we will either have to buy from Europe or develop a new system, despite the big words to Russia over the Ukraine, we are really defenseless to Russian attack?

Hoping that they won't attack is a bit arrogant and asking the U.S. is now off the table, so where do we go and what do we do, who knows and who cares!

Tehran Metro!

 One of the most Interesting?

There are many great sites to see, if one ever gets to visit Iran, ancient, historical, but the Metro system in the capital is a joy to see and travel on!

Most of the line dates from the end of the Shah in 1979 and was encouraged by the Soviet Union, but Iran has gone on to do their own work and improved the lines into the city with connection to mainline rail?

One does not think that the recent bombings by both the U.S. and Israel targeted any of the structure and that they system is providing air raid cover for civilians!

Most of the stock is modern, compared to other underground systems around the world and they are well maintained and safe, signaling has been improved over the years and comfort designed for large numbers of passengers?

Tinned Fish!

 A life line business for Many?

The continued processing of tinned fish is still profitable, despite the issues micro plastics and Dolphin sustainability!

Many nations operate huge fleets of long range operations, such as Japan and they go for some of the rarest species off Argentina and the southern Oceans and much of it is illegal?

Even in our own shores catfish is being sold as haddock and cod and the law is clamping down shops for doing this, but how many people really care, as long as they get what they want!

A whale going through a factory ship will be processed very quickly and with not many countries caring, this secret world continues for Norway, as much as a few others?

Film making Industry!

 Machines for Effects?

Most people believe that film making is a simple process made complicated by cameras and scripts and the addition of a green screen for special effects!

But it is far more complicated than meets the eye with many specialist machines to carry vehicles causing accidents and others to create explosions, gunfire and smoke?

There are also many moving background scenery, that is much more complicated than, the old curtains used in the past of early days of black and white!

Computer graphics and model making show some of the best artistic skills for the dramatic events, but the engineers behind the rest would blow you away with their expertise?

Boeing KC-135 Stratotanker's!

 Susceptible?

Overnight we have seen two more of these air refueling aircraft damaged in Saudi-Arabia, about two weeks ago one crashed and the other was damaged over Iraq, with the loss of eight crew and now another twelve injured!

The C-135 was a 1954 concept and went into service in 1957, most of today adapted fleet are fifty years old and they may not be able to deal with new weapons enemy fire, but its pot luck with these Iranian missiles barrages, that Israel is experiencing hourly?

Since 1961 they have been had several adaptions made to them, as there is so many you can do your own research into the differing versions!

The aircraft are not armed, but they do operate at very great heights and so far they are only operated by France and the U.S.A?
