1983, rather than 1982 is a key date for decisions for the RN and UK defence as a whole, in the light of the Falklands and it's effect not just on defence thinking but on the UK populace's attitude to their country. As surely as it was to the political establishment. But in terms of changes a...

I want to ask a question about when the J-10 programme first became known publically in the West, as well as the contentious issue of the possible Lavi connection, even if it is simply cosmetic, and hope that Deino perhaps can give some clarity on this. When were the first rumours of the J-10...

This gun was presented in 1992. The ammunition could have the same performances as the 45mm comvat: 1.095kg HE shell with a muzzle velocity of 1100ms. Rate of fire is 400spm.

"Longhorn" has been proposed to include a turbofan engine in a lengthened AGM-65F airframe. This version would be 3.35 m long and could have a range of about 75 km. Mid-course guidance would be inertial with GPS, while IIR or active MMW radar terminal seekers could be used.
