  + stars: | 2022-12-18 | by ( Brad Howard | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +1 min
The Air Force needs some new bombers. The B-1B Lancer and B-2A Spirit are in the twilight of their careers, and the B-21 Raider, a new stealth bomber produced by Northrop Grumman aims to take over the role as the premier bomber for the United States. Digital design, focused requirements by the Air Force and previous experience by Northrop Grumman in fielding a stealthy flying wing are credited with why the program appears to be on track and on budget. "And that even goes back to the YB-49 jet when Jack Northrop actually created some of the first flying wings.' Watch the video above to find out more about the new high-tech stealth bomber slated to fly in 2023.

Daro Sulakauri | Getty Images News | Getty ImagesAs many economies reel from the impact of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, a select few countries are benefiting from an influx of Russian migrants and their accompanying wealth. The country's initial wave accounts for almost a quarter (23.4%) of all emigres out of Russia up to September, according to an online survey of 2,000 Russian migrants conducted by research group Ponars Eurasia. The majority of the remaining Russian migrants have fled to Turkey (24.9%), Armenia (15.1%) and uncited "other" countries (19%). 'Highly active' migrantsGeorgia's strategic location and its historic and economic ties with Russia make it an obvious entry point for Russian migrants.
☆ Ukrainian suicide drone boats packed with bombs are threatening Russia's once feared Black Sea fleet, and it may not be able to stop them
  + stars: | 2022-11-03 | by ( Charles R. Davis | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
Ukraine last week appeared to attack Russia's Black Sea Fleet using a swarm of naval and aerial drones. Russia labeled the attack a "terrorist act" and briefly suspended a deal on grain shipments. Experts told Insider the attack demonstrates that nowhere is safe for Russia's naval assets. Russia has not, to date, taken such steps to protect its Black Sea Fleet, a force which has participated in the missile barrages of Ukraine and lost its flagship in another stunning Ukrainian attack. Nothing powered by a jet ski engine is going to be able to match the speed and range of a Russian ship at sea; when Ukraine sunk the cruiser Moskva, the former flagship of Russia's Black Sea Fleet, it did so with a cruise missile.

☆ Sailors have long complained about jet fuel seeping into their water on US Navy aircraft carriers and other warships. Here's how that can even happen.
  + stars: | 2022-10-21 | by ( Jake Epstein | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +8 min
The crew of a US Navy aircraft carrier recently discovered jet fuel contaminating the water supply. In doing this, the crew has to physically connect the ship's potable water system to its fuel oil system through piping. Aligning the potable water system and the fuel system involves opening valves that are normally locked shut in order to allow the two systems to connect. The fuel system is supposed to be depressurized, and the potable system should be pressurized. "Normally, if you flush out your fuel oil tanks — or your fuel oil system, any part of your fuel oil system — you should be watching for this problem, because you've connected the two systems.
☆ Why Saudi Arabia defied the US over OPEC oil supply cut
  + stars: | 2022-10-07 | by ( Nadeen Ebrahim Abbas Al Lawati | Nadeen Ebrahim | Abbas Al Lawati | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +14 min
On Wednesday, OPEC+, the oil cartel led by Saudi Arabia and Russia, agreed to slash production by 2 million barrels per day, twice as much as analysts had predicted, in the biggest cut since the Covid-19 pandemic. “Saudi Arabia is looking to head off a repeat of 2008 when the market crash sent the global economy into a recession and oil prices suddenly plummeted, requiring emergency action by OPEC,” said Wald. Analysts also say Saudi Arabia cannot afford to let oil prices go below a certain level for budgetary reasons. For its budget to break even, global oil prices must be at around $79 a barrel, according to the International Monetary Fund. That was a warning sign for Saudi Arabia and other oil exporters, who depend on oil for a majority of their revenue.
