@AC_NavalHistory According to the Conservatives calculation around half of the just over 32,000 reservists pay tax on their earnings and removing it for the first 30 days of service each year will cost £44m per year rising to £152m per year after five years including hiring an extra 5,000 res..
@Germann10600@GarethJennings3@JanesINTEL@BAESystemsAir Its a testbed for fabrication and engineering. It wont have the new engine and all the components will be test flown on flying labs as well... but its essentially a validation of the materials, structural design and systems integration as well as flight vs computer model.
@RM_Transit British houses are designed with each room as a discrete unit, there are no large ventilation ducts to move air between rooms while moisture would be trapped >damp. Meanwhile new build houses have to meet Building Regulations Part O which is passively cooled e.g. via heat pumps.
@Alain_Deckers@NeriZilber@RadioFreeTom Minor changes in the version Trump signed at the G7 from the version that was leaked by Saudi Arabia and was circulating in Washington media circles. It added explicit text emphasising the 60 day toll free was only for talks and tolls would be applied after, and Lebanon included.
@AuroraIntel They didn't in the first half and certainly not as well as the Croatians. The lack of match experience with this line-up was showing, all the friendlies were concentrating player rotation for match time so this is the first match with the tournament starting line-up.
@ThisIsDarwino@RM_Transit Britain is not a natural geology for it, the places that are generally skyscraper meccas are shallow rock plateaus whereas in UK you need deep building foundations (exception Liverpool and Edinburgh). Toronto waterfront has shallow rock only 10m below the surface.
@thinkdefence The last SDR addressed this; invest in an always on manufacturing chain with flexible tooling where you are constantly producing a few thousand of the latest design rather than going all in mass producing one model for years or waiting for the jam.
@pegge49 Shows you how bad a hole the previous government left, the new government has increased the defence budget by £170bn this parliament and there is still a £28bn shortfall of unfunded defence pledges to find the money for.
Following the completion of an initial examination regarding a photograph published earlier today of an IDF soldier harming a Christian symbol, it was determined that the photograph depicts an IDF soldier operating in southern Lebanon.
The IDF views the incident with great severity and emphasizes that the soldier’s conduct is wholly inconsistent with the values expected of its troops.
The incident is being investigated by the Northern Command and is currently being addressed through the chain of command. Appropriate measures will be taken against those involved in accordance with the findings.
Furthermore, the IDF is working to assist the community in restoring the statue to its place.
The IDF is operating to dismantle the terrorist infrastructure established by Hezbollah in southern Lebanon, and has no intention of harming civilian infrastructure, including religious buildings or religious symbols.

@BillBrockm88268@Fahadnaimb At its base its the Italian Aeritalia G.222 developed in 1970 (C-27A) modernised in 1999 with the same cockpit as the C-130 and RR US turboprop engines for greater commonality (C-27J). Though neither version had much over 100 airframes produced.
@Festivus96@Osinttechnical US is the only country that's ever invoked Article 5 and requested NATO assistance with the Afghan war and the second Gulf War because it couldn't do it on its own. No other NATO country has ever requested US assistance as they have managed their conflicts without the US.
@Festivus96@Osinttechnical Maybe if Trump could make his mind up between alternating daily between claiming no assistance was offered (it was never requested) and saying he's refusing offers of assistance because its no longer required. He needs better Bipolar medication.
