    OT a bit, but these graphs give me real nostalgia hit of earlier days when I avidly read the progress of analytical geometry under Robins and Euler and its influence on certain young lad studying in ecole militaire to be artillery officer. Carry on :)

    Canadian Shipbuilding-Budgets Can Sink Warships

    It boils down to Irving's connections within Canadian political elite (in this case). Bargaining power is all skewed/screwed from the get go. Tenders and competitions are just mostly fancy dress up opportunity....all shakes out the same way in end. I'll stop there....it just angers me....there...

    Canadian Shipbuilding-Budgets Can Sink Warships

    I warned so many about this....way back. Few listened to me. Oh well. I got so sick of the rigmarole that I just now wish the ships were built in UK and we do fitting out here maybe instead of the whole political gamesmanship with irving and LM.

    L/D ratio of the wings (esp for regular cruise) plays some part in it....along with what Gessler mentions. More conventional wing design has higher L/D ratio compared to delta wing....so the former inevitably almost always have better range and endurance for similar wing area (this affects your...

    I think there will be cooperation with CATS as well? Since deadlines are quite aggressive for it....there can be cooperation w.r.t XQ-58 etc...to get more stuff out the door quicker rather than developing everything from scratch....given DRDO,HAL etc are already stretched with number of...

    From what I can see, the Turkish fella is simply wiring up the engine in a test cell. No glasses needed for that stuff....and test cell is always gonna be confined lighting. Its same here at pratt more or less. It makes a more authentic picture (to me)....but would like to see more from...

    Conflation between Islam (religion) and Islamism (religion expanding to + controlling the political realm) is being conflated in this thread yet again.....with some making opposing Islamism as opposing to Islam itself (when they are two different things). Some usual suspects are also hitting...

    Yes, need to look at the imports side too....is that reaching new high's as well and keeping CAD the same. If so, then the increases are largely being pushed by USD underlying inflation effects. This is happening in a number of countries (i.e stopping analysis at just the export USD side and...

It was better measure to use pre-covid when its inflation was relatively low....but now that's changed....and it will take some years to return to prior reference quality (for...
