View Quote Interesting engine design and not something I've seen before (then again: I'm no expert). Long con rods and no single cylinder head, but individual cylinder heads with large cooling vanes - is that air cooled? It doesn't look like there are any channels for coolant to flow through. The whole thing is so unlike any diesel or gasoline engine I've seen taken apart. {ETA} And the valve mechanism in each individual cylinder head too; how odd... |

France Uncovers Major Russian Disinformation Operation.
I remember GD posting weird sites the the New Zeeland Daily Telegraph that had fuck all to do with the actual Daily Telegraph. In short when GD posts 'evidence' it's wise to check via the real cited source. "This campaign is based in particular on the creation of fake web pages impersonating national media and government sites as well as the creation of false accounts on social networks" "France condemns these actions unworthy of a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council," Foreign Minister Catherine Colonna said." https://www.france24.com/en/europe/20230613-france-says-uncovers-major-disinformation-campaign-waged-by-russia |

Another night attack and another terrorism of the occupying state against the civilian population of Ukraine.
On the night of June 13, the enemy struck from strategic aviation - eight Tu-95ms bombers from the Caspian region, as well as several strike drones from the south. A total of 14 Kh-101/Kh-555 air-based cruise missiles and up to four Shahed-136/131 unmanned aerial vehicles were launched. The forces and means of air defense of the Air Force destroyed 10 cruise missiles and one attack drone. In the city of Kryvyi Rih, rockets hit a residential sector, in particular, a five-story building... We sympathize with the families of those killed and injured at the hands of terrorists... In the morning, the Russians launched a second attack from the Caspian Sea with three Tu-95ms. According to preliminary data, only one cruise missile reached Ukraine this time, which was destroyed by Ukrainian air defense! 😡 There will be retribution for every Ukrainian life! 🇺🇦 Let's win! ✊ Let's keep the sky!
