A classic like a Smith & Wesson Model 1854 .45 Long Colt or a Kimber Stainless II .45 ACP 5″1911 Pistol would be my choice, but you can’t beat the fun a Century Arms MKE AP5 Navy offers. Of course you might need a new dot like a SIG Sauer ROMEO 7S or a Holosun 407. All of the above…

In a June 17 budget amendment to House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., the Office of Management and Budget asked Congress to steer more than $1.55 billion into the Air Force’s research and development account to keep the airborne battle management jet alive — money…

Sign up for the Quick Strike Newsletter The hottest fishing news, tips, and tactics This story, “We Gambled for Big Trout: 262 M’Goose,” appeared in the August 1962 issue of Outdoor Life. “THEY’RE here!” Ed Lukens shouted.

The research infrastructure that underpins America’s prowess in defense technology is “deteriorating,” according to a Department of Defense report released Wednesday.One reason is that research funds are being diverted to operations.The Pentagon’s “research, development, test, and evaluation (RDT&E) infrastructure is deteriorating and weakening the Department’s ability to maintain a technically advanced warfighting capability,” warned the report by the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering. “Authorized major military construction (MILCON) projects for modernization of critical joint-mission RDT&E infrastructure continually slip due to the services’ reprioritizing of scarce MILCON funds toward other operationally relevant priorities.”The study examined…

The pilot described multiple drones moving together as a single…

KYIV, Ukraine — The Ukrainian firm behind many of the long-range drone strikes that now regularly hit Russian oil refineries hundreds of miles inside its borders is moving into missile defense, signing a major deal this month to build a low-cost ballistic missile interceptor with foreign partners — a turn that positions the company as a key provider at both ends of the deep-strike war.Fire Point makes the munitions bolstering much of Ukraine’s campaign against targets deep inside Russia, including the FP-1 deep-strike drone, the shorter-range FP-2 and the FP-5 Flamingo cruise missile.Last week, the firm announced plans to build…

KYIV, Ukraine — Ukraine is developing a missile that launches from a balloon at the edge of the stratosphere, built to fly through Russian jamming — one of the newest weapons in Kyiv’s growing mid-range strike campaign to pressure the Kremlin into pulling back its forces and returning to the negotiating table.The balloon-born missile, DART, drops from a balloon at about 7 to 11 miles and runs on satellite guidance until it falls to about 4 miles, where its navigation cuts out and a solid-fuel engine carries it along a fixed course, according to its creators at the Ukrainian company…
