The European Union's foreign affairs chief will discuss potential sanctions on Aughinish Alumina when she visits Ireland tomorrow.

Not sure who made this, but you did an excellent job depicting a lunar industrial base.

Volodymyr Zelensky has warned Vladimir Putin that Ukraine is “very close” to producing a ballistic missile which could be fired into Russia.

The statement came ahead of talks with Sir Keir Starmer and the leaders of France and Germany over how to bring an end to the long-running war.

Every 20 years, a Boeing Lufty jet sacrifices it’s nose gear and bows to the terminal at FRA in a very holy ceremony. It’s a blessing to all the airline travelers of the world that they make their connections. Saint Lufthansa 🙏

Boeing's 6th-Gen Stealth Fighter F-47 Phoenix Based on Northrop Grumman's "Christmas Tree" Fighter Concept Crafted 1983 by Darold Cummings (Designer of the YF-23 Black Widow)

Yesterday, we have seen a first video release of the X-Plane demonstrator for @Boeing's new 6th-gen stealth fighter F-47 Phoenix which is obviously based on @NorthropGrumman's "Christmas Tree" fighter concept crafted 1983 by Darold Cummings, the chief-designer of the joint Northrop Grumman - McDonnell Douglas (Boeing) stealth fighter demonstrator YF-23 Black Widow.

The latest 2025 renderings by Reddington777 from https://t.co/7lkgloc2Yw and @RodrigoAvella are amazingly close to what we have see yesterday in the video released by @ProjectFearX. You can find 22 high-resolution images on Rodrigo's project page named "F47 Concept - V4" at https://t.co/hVx7vjOEvY

These are amazing synchronicities. So will the Trump administration allow us to see new F-47 details just before the start of the next @NATO Summit in Ankara from 7-8 July 2026?

We don't know but there is an almost unnoticed video from Pratt&Whitney which was released by @RTX_News on 24 June 2025 without an official press article just before the start of the @NATO Summit in The Hague from 24-25 June 2025 and shows an interesting front view for F-47 type of next-generation fighter: P&W XA103 https://t.co/1SZBXpOQpj

On 18 February 2026, RTX released the official press article "Fast-tracking the fighter jet engine of the future: How Pratt & Whitney is using digital tools to speed development of its adaptive engine" with a video of the XA103 engine inside a hypothetical design of the Next-Generation Air Dominance (NGAD) fighter. The XA103 engine is currently under development for the @USAirForce's Next Generation Adaptive Propulsion (NGAP) program: https://t.co/m05HoHHaHC

Is this maybe the final production version of the F-47 Phoenix?

It has at least amazing similarities with a design presented by Darold Cummings for a F-47 Navy version named F-47N. See here for more details:

https://t.co/S4pB5yqCGN

Darold writes that he "used (his) original F-47 wing planform, and added a canard for more low speed lift and control. The canard design (inspired by the X-36), coupled with the Multi-Axis Thrust Vectoring (inspired by the X-44), provided a very reasonable first cut at a Navy version. In general, a canard layout has been treated as adding more radar signature to a fighter.

However, on the YF-23 we found that if the all-moving surface (it was a V-tail on the YF-23) was kept "ported", in this case aligned with the wing plane during cruise, the impact on LO was not a large impediment to signature reduction. The ability to keep the canard ported is achievable using thrust vectoring for trim in cruise and penetration modes."

Regarding the "Chrismas Tree" Fighter Concept, please have a look at

I asked a local councillor if the russian refinery here in Ireland should be sanctioned.

He said yes, if it was supplying Israel.
But Russia? No.

This is Ireland’s sanctions hypocrisy in 90 seconds.

Kyiv was hit with a huge missile and drone attack this morning.

Also this morning, another ship with 2,200 tonnes of alumina headed from Ireland to russia to build those weapons. This has to stop immediately.

[Kyrylo Shevchenko @KShevchenkoReal]

⚡⚡⚡BREAKING: Ireland’s dirty secret exposed: Data reveals Ireland’s Aughinish Alumina factory — owned by Russian giant Rusal — shipped a staggering 83% of its exports (200,619 tons) to Russia in Q1 2026 alone. While PM Micheál Martin claims sanctioning it would “hurt the EU more than Russia,” the truth is this Irish plant is fueling Putin’s war machine: alumina → Russian aluminum → weapons killing Ukrainians. Official statistics crush the factory’s own lies (they claimed only 45% to Russia). As Ireland prepares to lead the EU Council, will Dublin keep blocking sanctions on its Russian-owned cash cow? Share if you want real sanctions.

Kalibr subsonic cruise missiles are 60% aluminum; 40% of the structural weight of drones is alum; 20% of Ballistic missiles such as Iskanders is aluminum. These missiles can not be constructed without aluminum and aluminum coming from the Shannon Estuary.

Some LC-36 updates. Now that we’ve had access to the pad and integration facility we can share a bit of good news. The propellant farm, oxygen, liquid hydrogen and LNG tanks are all in good shape. This is good luck because these are very long lead items. The water tower is also good. The big support tower is damaged, but it can be repaired in place rather than torn down and replaced. The booster “Never Tell Me The Odds” and the three GS-2s that were onsite in the integration facility also look good.

I’ve seen some speculation that we might move directly to the 9x4 configuration, but we won’t do that. Rate manufacturing of 7x2 is going well, and we’re going to continue that at pace as planned and store the stages for use. In addition, we had already been working for some time on eliminating our transporter-erector in favor of an alternative vertical conop, and we’ll now go directly to that; so we don’t need a new transporter-erector.

We will fly again before the end of this year. Gradatim Ferociter.

Mark R. Levin, a close ally of both U.S. President Donald J. Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, appears to confirm the veracity of the report earlier by Axios on today’s heated call between Trump and Netanyahu regarding peace negations with Iran as well as Israeli escalation in Lebanon.
