Drones the new terror Weapon!

 Yemen, Ukraine to Lebanon and God forbid Europe?

The use of drones in modern armies has been around for some time and they have improved over the years to be deployed by police and rescue agencies to great effect, but now they are in the hands of terrorists mostly in the Middle-East and one hopes they are confined to these places!

But the reality is they could be adapted and used by anyone and trained terrorists for attacks in the U.K. and Europe, if not anywhere?

It is illegal to fly a drone within miles of an airport of any kind or military installation, power plants and other key sites in the U.K.!

But this will not stop dangerous people trying to use Ukrainian type drones on civilians areas in the and perhaps N-Ireland?

Airbus New Kids?

Airbus A350-900/100 and the A220-100/200.

Two new types of aircraft are hitting the world, but the question to be asked is the demand their for them? The Airbus A350 is a wide body, but what it lacks is capacity, still being smaller that the successful counterpart the Boeing 777 series!

On the other hand Airbus has agreed to buy the Successful Canadian Bombardier CS-100/200 and rename them the A220-100/200 to save the workforce in N-Ireland, after being pressured from the U.K government!

Since Farnborough it is not known how many Airbus A220's have been ordered, but the second generation A321 and the Boeing 787-9/10 seem to have done very well! Sometimes rushing into projects is not wise and knowing what is wanted ahead is a wise move to hold back for a time?

Ordinance. Part-One.

and bomb Disposal.

This is a specialist field within all armed forces, para-military police and even the smallest nations who just have a police force. Many overlook this area and yet it is one half of two sides, the other being demolition or sabotage units.

The quartermaster in those James Bond movies is nothing more than a demolitions expert, all glossed up with his new super toys?

We are hearing much at this time in Europe in connection with the need of the bomb disposal units, but they are active to in all areas of conflict having to deal with pipe-bombs or IED's. many fantastic robotic vehicles that are much more effective in disarming the timing and triggers,

All this experience came at the cost of many men in N-Ireland, Spain and Israel who had to slowly painstakingly work their way up to these at times complex devices. 

Ordnance have been around for some time and this series will look into the different vehicles deployed from the past to the present.
