		<description><![CDATA[Our Navy Seals did it and  without losing a man. Osama bin Laden is past history.  One of the most vicious terrorists is no more. He set himself up as the chosen one to rid the world of all infidels or non believers. He managed to hide out for years under the protection of the Taliban but they couldn't save him in the end. This powerful crusader's last action was holding a wife in front of him as a human shield.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I am so proud of our Navy Seals, It&#8217;s hard to believe they flew into Pakistan in two helicopters, rushed the compound and killed bin Laden with no U.S. causalities. Even with one of the two helicopters crashing, what a coo for the U.S.. I couldn&#8217;t imagine the announcement President Obama was preparing to make. Newscasters kept everyone on the alert, saying  every few minutes that the president had an important announcement to make.</p>

<p>I was terribly worried that another war was starting or some other tragedy had happened. The last thing on my mind was bin Laden. I know everyone, especially those who lost family and friends in 9/11 were relieved the long wait was over. After a ten year manhunt I hope the destruction of bin Laden will bring closure and some sort of peace to those families.</p>
<p>Bin Laden was a billionaire who fought to create a Muslim empire and was rich enough to pay for the protection of the Taliban, and government officials in Afghanistan. He became a hero in much of the Islamic world with his attacks on the infidels or non believers. He orchestrated terror on the world with his influence.  Attacks by al-Qaida blew up passenger trains in Spain, bombed popular tourists attractions in Bali and exported terrorists attacks around the globe. He said in an interview, &#8220;I am confident that Muslims will be able to end the legend of the so called super power that is America.&#8221;  He believed he was the chosen one. Bin Laden devised businesses, some legal, some not, as a way to buy and move weapons to his armies. He set up training camps for soldiers and appointed councils to approve his military actions.</p>
<p>&nbsp;After 9/11  bin Laden took full responsibility for the attack on the Twin Towers, and made the statement that the world was divided between the infidels and the believers. It was his intention to destroy the non believers. Although he claimed to follow the traditional form of Islam, Islam scholars said he glossed over the edits against the killing of innocents and civilians, and he drew no boundaries over where holy wars can be waged. Instead, he declared war on the whole world.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[At last, the news that we waited for so long, Osama Bin Laden has been killed.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Hamid_Mir_interviewing_Osama_bin_Laden.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2011/05/02/hamidmirinterviewingosamabinladen_5.jpg" alt="" width="303" height="228" border="0" /></a></p>
<p>Osama Bin Laden (Right) is now dead</p>
<p>Image via <a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Hamid_Mir_interviewing_Osama_bin_Laden.jpg" target="_blank">Wikipedia</a></p>
<p>It is the news that we civilised people have been waiting to hear for years, OSAMA BIN LADEN is dead.&nbsp; So how did all this take place?&nbsp; Well at the time of writing of this, the information is all a bit vague.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Yet according to resources (Bloomberg, CNN, Hindu times, etc.) it has been believed for some time now that Osama Bin Laden was hiding out in a massive compound in the town of Abbotabad in Pakistan.&nbsp; Abbotabad is a small town 60 miles outside of Islamabad, which is used mainly for retired military personnel.&nbsp; This compound was built at the end of a dirt road in 2005, with other houses being built up around over subsequent time.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The reason for why this compound stood out was due to</p>
<ul>
<li>The fact that this property was 6 times bigger than any of the houses around it, valued at over $1 million.</li>
<li>Despite this, the compound had no telephone connectivity or internet connectivity</li>
<li>The compound was also surrounded by 7ft wall and had few windows actually facing out of the compound</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>So yesterday morning, two helicopters carrying 20-25 armed Special Forces flew out to the compound, landing within it due to the high walls and gates surrounding the compound.&nbsp; On barely touching down, the helicopters were fired on, causing one of the helicopters to suffer from mechanical failure.</p>
<p>Naturally the Special Forces fired back and in the process, Osama Bin Laden (and one of his sons) was shot and killed in the process.&nbsp; On killing him, his body was flown off and offered initially to several different countries for burial, etc.&nbsp; Naturally not wanting to burden the responsibility, all these countries turned the offer down.</p>
<p>So at 7:30 GMT, his body was buried at sea so that nobody could actually visit him or know where is located and turn it into a vigil.&nbsp; Though there will most likely be several attacks on the US from the dying Al Qaeda, the good news is that this one operation is a massive slap against the middle eastern terrorists.</p>
<p>Though there is no chance that this operation will be the final blow in the war on terror, it is another major turning point and though Al Qaeda I can thankfully say is dying out, the problem is that since 2001, home grown terrorism and other groups who support the Al Qaeda methodology is still growing strong.</p>
<p>Yet for most Americans (and rest of us in the world) it is a day of joy and celebration!</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Eastern coalition troops land at Dover!]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Morning arrived!</p>
<p>&ldquo;This is James Lance for CNN News we are into day three of the so called &lsquo;Eastern Coalition&rsquo; attempted invasion of Great Britain! I can see from my position hundreds of landing craft heading across the English Channel from France! The machine gun fire is deafening! The British infantry is fighting for all its worth. However from my point of view their losing!&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Was it wrong for President Obama to refuse assistance to Britain? In my opinion yes! The Dover coastline is stained red! A general call to arms has been issued by the Prime Minister David Cameron. Troops are being rushed to the front however I fear it maybe too late! Libya combined with Tunisia and Syria and most of the Arabic countries are using Britain as its focal point of their campaign against the west&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;France refused to answer the call from NATO and has allowed the &rsquo;Eastern Coalition&rsquo; to use its country as a base! Hold on, camera can you get that jet? As we speak a three aircraft formation is thundering overhead. Its RAF Typhoon jets are sending volleys of anti-ship missiles that explode on the decks of the invasion craft! The troops cheer as the jets pummel the Chinese made Warships! Wait, oh no! a anti-aircraft missile has just hit a Typhoon, the pilot has ejected but I fear he will land near the ships!&rdquo;</p>
<p><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2011/04/25/euro-ffighter-typ_1.jpg" alt="" width="540" height="360" /></p>
<p>&ldquo;Machine gun fire from the Destroyers are targeting the injured pilot as he falls to the sea! This is inhumane! I am being waved away by soldiers I&rsquo;m handing over to Roger Chambers in London&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;The situation in central London is grim armed Eastern coalition troops were parachuted into Hyde park this morning! The&nbsp; Scottish 1st Regiment is putting up a tremendous fight! however the Russian made Bear aircraft are dropping off hundreds of coalition troops by parachute to cover any casualties&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;From where I&rsquo;m standing its hours not days before the coalition troops break out of the park and onto the streets of London! Tornado attack aircraft are on their way back from Afghanistan but fuel and ammunition is critical. The prime Minister David Cameron has asked President Obama for immediate help with logistics and troops, thus far the call has fallen on deaf ears. Many American citizens are up in arms in disgust including this reporter!&rdquo;</p>
<p><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2011/04/25/colonelgadaffilibya_1.jpg" alt="" width="271" height="300" /></p>
<p>&ldquo;There are rumours that Queen Elizabeth and the Royal family are on route to a safe country perhaps Switzerland but these are just rumours. The ship carrying the troops from the garrison on the Falkland Isles was torpedoed and sunk by a Chinese made Nuclear submarine in the early hours of this morning! Germany has refused to be drawn into the conflict for fear of reprisals! Ireland has declared war on the Eastern Coalition their troops are on route to the south coast, but will it be all too late?&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;As we speak helicopters are screaming in low to bomb the coalition troops however French Mirage jets are homing in! oh no! both helicopters have been taken out! CNN has ordered me out I&rsquo;m sorry viewers&rdquo;</p>
<p><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2011/04/25/mirage-fighter_1.jpg" alt="" width="450" height="319" /></p>
<p>&ldquo;This is Lucy Barnes outside the White house speaking to senator Adams, Senator why are we standing by and watching Great Britain being invaded and thousands of British troops being killed?!</p>
<p>The Senator shifts his feet then replies,</p>
<p>&ldquo;I understand America&rsquo;s frustration over our non-intervention policy, some of you may even have family in Britain. This is just something America cannot be involved in Britain must stand alone&rdquo; Lucy retorts</p>
<p>&ldquo;Senator this is not the will of the American people! Some would say that we as in America has caused this conflict and now we stand by and watch Great Britain be invaded and its people slain!&rdquo; The Senator replies,</p>
<p>&ldquo;It is a complicated situation the Senate will have an urgent meeting on this very subject&rdquo;</p>
<p>Lucy loses her temper!</p>
<p>&ldquo;A meeting! A meeting! As we speak thousands of Eastern Coalition troops are landing in Britain! You people disgust me!&rdquo;</p>
<p>The video link is severed.</p>
<p>&ldquo;This is James Lance this will be my last broadcast from Britain CNN is flying me out whilst there is still time. The British Nuclear submarine &rsquo;The Dauntless&rsquo; is stationed off the coast of Libya and threatens immediate deployment of a &rsquo;Polaris Nuclear missile&rsquo; if the Eastern coalition forces refuse to back off! I bid you good day and hope we all survive this day!&rdquo;</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Helicopters are a form of aircrafts with unique maneuverability and flexibility.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Helicopters were invented by Igor Sikorsky, an American engineer, in 1939. In contrast to traditional aircrafts, they do not have wings. Rather, they fly by means of an overhead propeller.</p>
<h3>Unique Features of a Helicopter</h3>
<p>Helicopters are unique in the sense that they can fly forward and backward, as well as straight up and down. Additionally, they are capable of hovering on one spot. Another unmatched feature of a helicopter is that if its engines fail, air rushing through its blades makes them spin thus lowering it to safe heights in a relatively gentle manner. Even though helicopters cannot reach great speeds, they are extremely maneuverable.</p>
<h3>Parts of a Helicopter</h3>
<p>A number of components work together to make a helicopter fly.</p>
<h4>Rotor Blades</h4>
<p>The rotor blades are long narrow airfoils more curved above than below. The difference in air pressure above and below the spinning rotor blades creates the lift to screw the helicopter in the air.</p>
<h4>Rotor Head</h4>
<p>The rotor head is driven by the helicopter&rsquo;s engines. The movable control rods in the rotor head allow the pilot to change the pitch or angle of each rotor blade. Additionally, it can also control the tilt of the whole unit.</p>
<h4>Tail Rotor</h4>
<p>The tail rotor is used as steering rudder for horizontal course changes. Just like rotor head, the pilot can vary the pitch of its blades.</p>
<h3>Helicopter Controls</h3>
<p>The pilot has three main controls for maneuvering the helicopter in a desired way.</p>
<ul>
<li>Rudder pedals are used to change the pitch of the tail rotor blades. </li>
<li>
<p>The cyclic pitch control is used to tilt the main rotor unit forward, backward and sideways to direct the helicopter&rsquo;s flight.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>The collective pitch control alters the pitch of the rotor blades to vary the amount of lift.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<h3>How Helicopters Fly</h3>
<p>Using the cyclic pitch control, the pilot alters the tilt of the main rotor unit to make the helicopter turn in different directions. For instance, when the pilot intends to fly forward, he directs the cyclic pitch control to tilt the main rotor forward, thereby creating a thrust in the forward direction. Similarly, the pilot can use the collective pitch control to change the pitch of the rotor blades to vary the amount of lift. The steeper the pitch, the greater will be the lift and vice versa.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[A multinational force arrived in Mogadishu, Somalia on December 9th 1992 with the aim of restoring order, as well as supplying relief aid and food supplies to the country riddled by many years of conflict.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&nbsp;The area had been under centuries of colonial rule by first Portugal, then Britain and finally Italy. Mogadishu became the Somalian capital after it gained its independence in 1960. Within 10 years of that event a military coup led by Major General Muhammad Siad Barre led to the declaring of Somalia being a socialist state. In the mid 1970&rsquo;s a drought severely affected the area, combined with an unsuccessful rebellion by Somali&rsquo;s in neighbouring Ethiopia led to the depravation of food and shelter for many of those most in need. By 1981 close to 2 million of the country&rsquo;s inhabitants were declared homeless.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Peace was agreed between Somalia and Ethiopia in 1988 through the signing of an accord, however fighting increased within Somalia between rival clans. In January 1991 Barre was forced to flee the capital. Fighting between the rival factions continued and an estimated 50,000 were killed in less than 2 years. A further 300,000 died of starvation. UN peacekeeping forces struggled to restore order and provide the necessary relief amongst the chaotic situation of the civil war.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>With the arrival of the multinational force assigned to restore order, international aid workers were able to resume distributing food and other humanitarian aid to those most in need. Sporadic violence ensued, including one incident where 24 soldiers from Pakistan working under the UN peacekeeping banner were murdered in 1993. The arrest was ordered of General Mohammed Farah Aidid, the leader of one of the warring clans. US marines were given the task of apprehending this man and on October 3rd 1993 while attempting to carry out the arrest two Black Hawk helicopters were shot down and a total of 18 US soldiers killed in the rescue attempt.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Much of the firefight that developed was shown on TV, and became the main plot for the movie &lsquo;Black Hawk Down.&rsquo; President Bill Clinton gave the order for the immediate withdrawal of US soldiers from Somalia. By the end of March 1994 other western nations had had likewise with their troops. When the last of the UN peacekeepers had left the area in 1995 the mission had cost more than $2billion. At that time the region still lacked a functioning government to restore order. A ceasefire was agreed in 2002, this failed to stop the violence. In 2004 a new government was established, yet rival factions continue to struggle for control of this troubled nation.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The United Nations run peacekeeping missions all around the world in areas where there are disturbances and civil strife. Some areas require more help, more troops, more equipment and more attention because these are regions with more problems and their problems may be really intense which really requires external intervention. </p>
<p>The Peacekeeping forces of the United Nations are troops from the member states of the United Nations who keep peace under the United Nations banner. These soldiers who are from various national armies are also called &ldquo;peacekeepers&rdquo;.</p>

<p>Peacekeeping troops maybe from all around the world. They are sent by their national governments to the United Nations so that they will be able to maintain peace in regions. </p>
<p>They are not an invading force. They are there with the consent of the national government and are morally obliged to uphold all rights. </p>
<p>These peacekeepers by no way are allowed to engage with any group. They cannot go on the offensive. Their role is strictly defensive and their use of weapons is only to protect those who have been put under their care and uphold their rights.</p>
<p><a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Blue_helmet.JPG" target="_blank"><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2010/11/19/bluehelmet_1.jpg" alt="" width="540" height="405" border="0" /></a></p>
<p>Image via <a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Blue_helmet.JPG" target="_blank">Wikipedia</a></p>
<p>Even though they are a defensive force, they do require weapons and equipment. Though most of their weapons will be provided by their respective national governments, their logistics still remain a big question which is debated by the United Nations. The United Nations always has to rely on donations from member nations in order to sustain its operations and as more and more countries stop or cap their voluntary funding, the budgets for peacekeeping missions also reduce and the peacekeeping missions lose their purpose. </p>
<p>One particular issue the Peacekeepers face is the shortage, or rather dire shortage of helicopters for their operations. They are not talking about military attack helicopters, but transport and cargo helicopters which can be used for a lot of humanitarian missions.</p>
<p><a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:UN_Peacekeepers_Kigali.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2010/11/19/unpeacekeeperskigali_1.jpg" alt="" width="540" height="360" border="0" /></a></p>
<p>Image via <a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:UN_Peacekeepers_Kigali.jpg" target="_blank">Wikipedia</a></p>
<p>In the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), the peacekeepers complain how tough it has become to conduct their peacekeeping operations due to the lack of helicopters. They need these helicopters for a variety of tasks. It may be transporting troops from one place to another, transporting injured troops and civilians to medical facilities, transporting essential aid for the people, patrolling and many such tasks. The UN peacekeepers in the DRC have been around for quite a lot of time, years, to be precise. They complain that the number of choppers have been reducing by the year and it has become really hard to conduct crucial parts of the operation, especially the transportation of personnel and goods in the DRC.</p>
<p>This very complaint is echoed throughout many peacekeeping missions that are being conducted by the UN all around the world. They are losing their equipment and are badly in need for new ones.</p>
<p><a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Evstafiev-un-peacekeepers-sarajevo-w.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2010/11/19/evstafievunpeacekeeperssarajevow_1.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="307" border="0" /></a></p>

<p>A solution, a probable one, could be Russian choppers, especially the Mi-8 and Mi-17. </p>
<p>Let us take an example. In Afghanistan, the coalition troops are busy building a strong Afghanistan armed forces. The coalition has picked Russian helicopters like the Mi-8 and the Mi-17 to serve in Afghanistan. The coalition could have put American made choppers in the Afghan Armed Forces, but the coalition did not do that because of a few reasons. They include:</p>
<p>1. Russian choppers are easily maneuverable.<br />2. Russian choppers are cheap<br />3. Russian choppers are strong and sturdy<br />4. Russian choppers have the ability to withstand tough terrain<br />5. Russian choppers are capable of carrying heavy loads<br />6. Russian choppers are fast.</p>
<p><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2010/11/17/mi17_1.jpg" alt="" width="540" height="340" /></p>
<p><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2010/11/19/2297827578f2a61d89b2_1.jpg" alt="" width="384" height="288" /><br />As an addition, Russian choppers such as the Mi-8 and the Mi-17, which are basically transport helicopters by nature, can be modified to hold weapons and can be turned into helicopter gun-ships. They can then serve a combat role then.</p>
<p>Peacekeeping missions require helicopters which are fast and can carry heavy loads and can survive tough terrain. Thus what can be done, is that Russian choppers be inducted into the peacekeeping operations that are being conducted all around the world. The peacekeepers require cargo choppers. There is no need to modify them to be attack choppers or anything of that sort. They can even be used directly when they come off the assembly line!</p>
<p>So what needs to be done now, is to immediately help induct the choppers into peacekeeping missions. Instead of relying on member nations to contribute helicopters to the peacekeeping missions, it makes sense that the United Nations purchase their own helicopters. Member Nations themselves maybe facing a helicopter shortage. So what needs to be done, is that member nations contribute a little more to the existing UN peacekeeping missions fund and they can order new Russian helicopters thereby providing more equipment for the peacekeeping missions and also relieving countries from donating their choppers in order to sustain peacekeeping operations.</p>
<p>Russian choppers to the rescue!</p>

		<description><![CDATA[The UH-60 Blackhawk Helicopter and its many phases and history.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The UH-60 has became the work horse of Army Avaition. Every day missions are carried out in numerous countries for various reasons. As a UH-60 mechanic I sometimes curse at some of the hard to get to spots and safeties we are implored to remove and replace. Its a love hate relationship but at the end of the day I know the struggle is worth it.</p>
<p><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2010/05/09/369270598693baafce41_1.jpg" alt="" />&nbsp;Photo from Flickr</p>
<p>The UH-60 entered service with the U.S. Army&#8217;s&nbsp;101st Airborn Division&nbsp;in June 1979. The UH-60 was first utilized in combat during the invasion of Grenada in 1983. Then again in the invasion of Panama in 1989.(The author of this article partcipated in the Panama invasion).</p>
<p><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2010/05/09/12795997d11a337491_1.jpg" alt="" />&nbsp;Photo from Flickr</p>
<p>The UH-60 has also served in the Gulf War, Balkans and Haiti. The largest air assult ever occured in Somalia with over 300 Blackhawks raining terror. The Blackhawk still serves the military in Afghanistan and Iraq. The 1/228th(One Team One fight) from Soto Cano, Honduras Air Base is currently deployed on a humanitarian mission in Hati. The 1/228th is scheduled to return to their home base in June.</p>

<p>The UH-60A Blackhawk is the primary division-level transport helicopter, providing dramatic improvements in troop capacity and cargo lift capability compared to the UH-1 Series &#8220;Huey&#8221; it replaces. The UH-60A, with a crew of three, can lift an entire 11-man fully-equipped infantry squad in most weather conditions. It can be configured to carry four litters, by removing eight troop seats, in the MedEvac role. Both the pilot and co-pilot are provided with armor-protective seats. Protective armor on the Black Hawk can withstand hits from 23mm shells. The Black Hawk has a cargo hook for external lift missions. The Black Hawk has provisions for door mounting of two M60D 7.62mm machine guns on the M144 armament subsystem, and can disperse chaff and infrared jamming flares using the M130 general purpose dispenser. The Black Hawk has a composite titanium and fiberglass four-bladed main rotor, is powered by two General Electric T700-GE-700 1622 shp turboshaft engines, and has a speed of 163 mph (142 knots).</p>

<p>With it&#8217;s more powerful engines, the UH-60L can accomodate a ESSS (External Stores Support System). The ESSS consists of 4 removable pylons that can hold a mixture of external fuel tanks (up to 4, extending the Blackhawk&#8217;s range to 1,150 nautical miles), 16 laser-guided AGM-114 Hellfire missiles or a mix of up to 10,000lb of other missiles, rockets or cannon pods.</p>

</p>
<p>The helicopters are manufactured at the Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation production facilities based in Stratford, Connecticut, USA. Licensed production of Blackhawk helicopters is also carried out in Japan and the Republic of Korea.</p>

<p>The primary mission of the Blackhawk helicopter is as a troop carrier and logistical support aircraft, but in addition the helicopter can be configured to carry out medical evacuation, command-and-control, search-and-rescue, armed escort, electronic warfare and executive transport missions.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I am an American living outside the United States working on helicopters. I consider myself lucky because I get to experience a different culture. Complete with all the sights, sounds, and traditions.</p>
<p>Look what I work on:</p>
<p><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2010/01/03/pict0006_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;<img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2010/01/03/pict0007_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Check out the view I have at my office:</p>
<p><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2010/01/03/pict0009_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;<img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2010/01/03/pict0008_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>There are some drawbacks such as extreme poverty, crazy and I mean crazy drivers, crime, no formal lines when trying to pay for items, roads leave a lot to be desired.</p>
<p>In my case, I hate it when I am in a store and everyone is trying to get in front of me. Fortunately, I speak the language and have asked many of these rude and crude shoppers, &ldquo;Don&rsquo;t you see that I am before you.&rdquo; or &ldquo;The line is behind me.&rdquo;</p>
<p>All things considered is only a minor nuisance. I love being where I am and enjoy the good people of Honduras. When my sister asks me, &ldquo;when are you coming home?&rsquo; I tell her, &ldquo;every night.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Sometimes I get to work on the Chinooks.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>Air crafts</h3>
<p>Vehicles those travel through the air are called an air crafts. The ability to sour over obstacles such as oceans and mountains makes aircrafts the fastest form of traveling.</p>
<h3>Types of Air crafts</h3>
<h3>Military</h3>
<p>Military uses many air crafts to attack and to transport. Some of the main air crafts that are used by military are.</p>
<h4>Fighter/Strike aircraft, MC Donnell Douglas F/A-18E Super Hornet</h4>
<h4><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2009/07/13/f1803_1.jpg" alt="" /></h4>
<p>This plane was an alternative to A-12 avenger and was a cheaper option for stealth attack.</p>
<p>First Flight: 29 November 1995</p>
<p>Service Entry: September 2001</p>
<h4><strong>Naval strike aircraft, MC Donnell Douglas AV-8B Harrier II<br /></strong></h4>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2009/07/13/3648984842eb1ab8dc38_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>It was an attack fighter plane. This version of harrier was a much improved version of harrier I as the weight was reduced, engine was lift up and wings were enlarged.</p>
<p>First Flight: November 1978</p>
<p>Service Entry: January 12, 1985</p>
<p><strong>Swing-Wing bomber, General Dynamics F-111A Aardvark</strong></p>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2009/07/13/050322f1234p007_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>It was originally developed as deep-strike fighter bomber for the  	Air Force and a long-range interceptor for the Navy but later on army used it in a bulk.</p>
<p>First Flight: 21 December 1964</p>
<p>Service Entry: June 1967.</p>
<p>Last modified: 29 November 2005</p>
<p><strong>Ground Attack &#8220;Tank Buster&#8221;,&nbsp; Fair-Child A-10 Thunderbolt II</strong></p>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2009/07/13/a1029_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>It was designed for survivability. Its role is to fly low and slow over the battlefield. It is mainly used to destroy enemy tanks. It is an extremely rugged aircraft and can fly even in drastic circumstances. It can continue flying even with an engine, a tail fin, or even part of a wing shot off the plane.</p>
<p>First Flight: 10 May 1972</p>
<p>Service Entry: March 1977</p>
<h3></h3>
<h3>Passenger and Cargo Air crafts</h3>
<p>Passengers air crafts are those air crafts which are used to take people over large distances in short period of time. Some of the most famous passenger air crafts are:</p>
<h4>Wide bodied, long-haul airliner, Boeing 777-200</h4>
<h4><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2009/07/13/inflight_1.jpg" alt="" /></h4>
<p>This plane was designed for both inter continental and transcontinental routes. The difference in the design of this craft is that it is equipped with two engines unlike other Boeing planes.</p>
<p>First Flight: 12 June 1994</p>
<p>Service Entry: 7 June 1995</p>
<h4><strong><strong>Medium Range Airliner, Boeing 737-300</strong></strong></h4>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2009/07/13/boeing737300aegeansxbgw_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>It is second generation 737 air craft with a longer fuselage for up to 149 passengers and new engines.</p>
<p>First Flight: 24 February 1984</p>
<p>Service Entry: 7 December 1984</p>
<h4><strong>Freight transporter aircraft, Boeing 727</strong></h4>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2009/07/13/boeing727sidebest_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>It is a small aircraft used to take less number of passengers and is used for small routes. Although the 727 was even more economical to operate than initially anticipated, sales in the early 1960s were somewhat disappointing.</p>
<p>First Flight: February 1963</p>
<p>Service Entry: 1 February 1964</p>
<h4><strong>Commuter Aircraft, Fair-child Metro II<br /></strong></h4>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2009/07/13/30038363_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>It is a very small and beautiful commuter aircraft with only 19 seats. The metroII aircraft was an improved version of metroI with low noise level and high engine capacities.</p>
<p>First Flight: June 1975</p>
<p>Service Entry: January 1976.</p>
<p><strong><br /></strong></p>
<h4>Helicopters</h4>
<p>Helicopters serve many functions like attacking, transportation and traveling. The major benefit of helicopters is that they don&#8217;t need huge landing paths. Some of the famous helicopters are:</p>
<h4><strong>Attack Helicopter, Bell AH-I Cobra</strong></h4>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2009/07/13/ah1cobra_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>This helicopter was frequently used by army to attack in early 1970s</p>
<h4><strong>Passenger Helicopter, Sikorsky S-61</strong></h4>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2009/07/13/sikorskys61nun1of4_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>This is a passenger helicopter used to cover smaller routes. Frequently used by United nations.</p>
<h4><strong>Transport Helicopter, Boeing CH-47 Chinook</strong></h4>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2009/07/13/ch472_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>This helicopter is used by army to send large soldier troops from one place to another in a short interval of time. This aircraft can lift heavy weights.</p>
<h4><strong>Tilt-rotor aircraft, Boeing V-22 Osprey</strong></h4>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2009/07/13/v22ospreytiltrotoraircraft_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>This aircraft was designed in 1989 but due tilt rotor concept, it did not become famous. Hence came into service in 2007. Now a day this aircraft is frequently used by military.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[The 21st Century spy world has gotten more sophisticated and its technology more advanced. Weapons and spy tools have gotten smaller and even more deadly within the last couple decades. You will not believe your eyes to see what spy tools and weapons that these secretive spy agencies can use against their enemies or possibly you, too.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Every sophisticated spy understands the importance of staying ahead of the technological curve, because in the spy game getting captured could mean unknown torture and most certain death. Stocking the spy arsenal with the most advanced high-tech tools and gadgets in necessary to complete the mission that has been assigned.</p>
<h3>Dragonfly X6 UAV</h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/08/27/draganflyerflying2_1.jpg" alt="" /><br /><a href="http://www.macobserver.com/article/2002/07/draganflyer-flying2.jpg" target="_blank">Photo Source</a></p>
<p>Sometimes a spy will encounter a situation where there isn&#8217;t any secure location to setup surveillance without taking a big risk of getting his or her cover blown. The Dragonfly X6 UAV is a lightweight carbon fiber radio controlled helicopter that can be equipped with an HD camera, night vision or a thermal imaging camera, so that recording the target&#8217;s every move can be done secretively. The X6 can top fly speeds up to 30 MPH and achieve 90-degree turns and it is traceable using its built-in GPS.</p>
<h3>Gen Corporation&#8217;s One-Man Helicopter</h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/08/27/brianlamflyingthumb422x314_1.jpg" alt="" /><br /><a href="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2008/08/27/brianlamflyingthumb422x314_1.jpg" target="_blank">Photo Source</a></p>
<p>No spy can be without the most advanced high-tech transportation available, so the world&#8217;s smallest one-man helicopter will give them the eye-in-the-sky view that they need to travel kind of stealthy high above the crowded streets.</p>
<h3>Dragonfly Spies</h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/08/27/insectspies32h_1.jpg" alt="" /><br /><a href="http://forgetomori.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/insectspies32h.jpg" target="_blank">Photo Source</a></p>
<p>Some spy missions involve monitoring a large outdoor crowd of bystanders or in this day and age, protesters. Not wanting to alert the target(s) that they are being watched requires a gadget that will blend into the surrounding environment. The Dragon Probe does just that and more. Equipped with a tiny mounted camera and a listening device, this dragonfly can maneuver in and out of some very tight places with unparalleled aerodynamics. No one will even notice that they are being watched.</p>
<h3>Raytheon Killer Bee</h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/08/27/raytheonkillerbeeuav_1.jpg" alt="" /><br /><a href="http://www.dodevice.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/raytheon-killer-bee-uav.jpg" target="_blank">Photo Source</a></p>
<p>When a spy is commissioned to penetrate deep behind enemy lines to collect counterintelligence or to locate enemy insurgents, so that they can be targeted and eliminated as a threat. It is good to know that the military can deploy a Raytheon Killer Bee armed to the teeth with laser guided bombs will have you covered. By the time the enemy realizes that the Killer Bee is within range, then it will have been too late.</p>
<h3>Corner Shot</h3>

<p>Spies need firepower that can deliver a punch. A spy can never have too many tools in his or her arsenal and Corner Shot helps spies to defend themselves even if their target has hidden themselves around a corner in the other room. Corner Shot is the ultimate high-tech weapon support system for the modern-day spy. The spy can mount a pistol to its folding rifle-like stock and laterally swing the swinging hinge around corners or over walls to lay fire onto the enemy. Using a tiny front mounted camera and watching the action in the viewer, the spy will see the enemy before the enemy see them.</p>
<h3>US Supertruck</h3>

<p>On those most daring missions, the US Supertruck can be employed to strike the enemy hard and fast. Armed like many small armies, the US Supertruck is equipped with a grenade launcher laser gun, night vision, bulletproof glass, Kevlar body armour, smoke and oil from exhaust, high voltage door handles and dazzling headlights. The enemy won&#8217;t know what hit them, until their dead bodies start piling up on the ground.</p>

<p>Communication is a definite necessity while on a mission where modern-day cell phones cannot pickup a strong signal. Good satellites phone can pickup satellite signal high up into space when the mission takes the spy deep into the jungles of the Amazon or the deserts of the Middle East. Keeping in close contact with central command establishes support whenever it is needed.</p>
<h3>Cell Phone .22 Caliber Gun</h3>

<p>When a spy finds themselves stuck between a rock and a hard place with their target closing in on their position, they can use their .22 caliber cell phone gun to take their enemy out before they are eliminated first. Concealed within the casing of the commonly used cell phone is a four shot .22-caliber gun. Pressing 5 &amp; 8 on the keypad fires a round off, but aiming and hitting the target that is being targeted will take some practice.</p>
<h3>Pen Scanner</h3>

<p>While the majority of missions that a spy is commissioned to undertake are dangerous and potentially life-threatening, there are times when a spy needs to retrieve documents or photos in a stealthy sort of way. With the Pen Scanner, a spy can scan a file or photo and store the digital content on the 8MB internal memory chip and transfer the images via USB onto a laptop or other computer.</p>
<h3>Micro PVPro Projector</h3>

<p>Counterintelligence is critical to completing any assignment successfully, so having the most up-to-date information at your fingertips will keep the spy ahead of the curve while out in the field. The Micro PVPro Projector the spy can use their cell phone, laptop, personal media player or digital camera to download incoming intelligence from central command headquarters and project the images in real-time on any flat surface. This gives the spy the ability to study the mission plans with much improved clarity and the projector is small enough to tote it along in an inside coat pocket.</p>
