Weapons and Biotechnology Revolution

Posted under: Military, Science, Weapon

The role of technology simply can not be separated from mankind in various aspects. Especially in the era of globalization, all the things that are never predicted to be happen but then it becomes a very common thing to be found all around us. Technological development which has growing rapidly is the main cause.

The technology that was originally only intended to facilitate human work is now almost able to replace a direct role in the man himself doing odd jobs. Of course, this brings multiple benefits to humans than if we do not exploit the use of these technologies. Adding all above it, is the biotechnology revolution, which became one of terrifying weapons ever created on earth.

Unmanned War Machine

Posted under: Machine, Military, Weapon

The development of technology have evolved very fast, it also impacted on defense machine and aircraft. The latest technology even able to develop unmanned war machine.

Talking about strategy and defense, lets have a look at US war technology. The latest info receive, the U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates said that the United States will use one of their most advanced war technology in Libya. As we know, the aircraft fleet predators are controlled, unmanned warfare. Future war machine model has been developed here for 50 years. Here are 5 lists unmanned war machines belong to the United States:

Low-frequency sleep – electromagnetic

Posted under: Military, Science, Technical, Weapon

From 1980 to 1983, a man named Eldon Byrd ran the Marine Corps Nonlethal Electromagnetic Weapons project. He conducted most of his research at the Armed Forces Radiobiology Research Institute in Bethesda, Md. “We were looking at electrical activity in the brain and how to influence it,” he says. Byrd, a specialist in medical engineering and bioeffects, funded small research projects, including a paper on vortex weapons by Obolensky. He conducted experiments on animals–and even on himself–to see if brain waves would move into sync with waves impinging on them from the outside. (He found that they would, but the effect was short lived.)

Electromagnetic heat Weapon

The Soviets were known to have potent blinding lasers. They were also feared to have developed acoustic and radio-wave weapons. The 1987 issue of Soviet Military Power, a cold war Pentagon publication, warned that the Soviets might be close to “a prototype short-range tactical RF [radio frequency] weapon.” The Washington Post reported that year that the Soviets had used such weapons to kill goats at 1 kilometer’s range.
The Pentagon, it turns out, has been pursuing similar devices since the 1960s.

Typical of some of the more exotic proposals are those from Clay Easterly. Last December, Easterly–who works at the Health Sciences Research Division of Oak Ridge National Laboratory (more…)

Owen Machine Carbine

Posted under: Machine, Science, Technical, Weapon

The Owen Gun, which was known officially as the Owen Machine Carbine, was an Australian submachine gun designed by Evelyn (Evo) Owen in 1939. The Owen was the only Australian-designed service firearm of World War II and was the main submachine gun used by the Australian Army during the war.

Owen, an inventor from Wollongong, was 24 in July 1939 when he demonstrated his prototype .22 calibre “Machine Carbine” to Australian Army ordnance officers at Victoria Barracks in Sydney. The gun was rejected because the army, at the time, did not recognize the value of submachine guns. Following the outbreak of war, Owen joined the army as a private.
