Ukraine has just done something astonishing.
The Ukrainian Ministry of Defence has just launched TrophyLab - essentially making access to all captured Russian weapon technologies free for foreign governments, research institutions and the defence industry.
They will even send physical hardware to allies for examination and to rip it apart to discover Russian military secrets. As well as technical specifications, blueprints and research results.
The website includes listings for armoured vehicles, missiles, aircraft, UAVs, EW assets, UGVs, cruise missiles etc.
Governments usually want to keep this kind of captured tech a secret for its own advantage. Ukraine has decided to make it (relatively, I think) open access for the benefit of the West.
Video footage posted recently by the YouTube channel Project Fear, filmed near Area 51 at the Nevada Test and Training Range (NTTR), appears to have captured a new sixth-generation fighter aircraft, possibly the U.S. Air Force’s Next Generation Air Dominance (NGAD), known more commonly as the Boeing F-47.
How clean are the cockpit instruments on a brand new aircraft?
This A350-900 is only a few months old… yet look at the dust and fine particles around the buttons 👀
