B-36 defensive weapons. When introduced in 1948, it featured six retractable turrets, with two 20-mm canon. Gun recoil affected electronics, and turrets were recognized as obsolete and were removed around 1950, in an effort to reduce weight and crew on type. 📹 Skyfire85 /YT

Retractable 20mm cannon turrets on the Convair B-36 Peacemaker strategic bomber The aircraft was built by Convair and operated by the United States Air Force from 1949 to 1959. The B-36 is the largest mass-produced piston-engined aircraft ever built. It had the longest wingspan of any combat aircraft ever built, at 70 meters. The B-36 was the first bomber capable of delivering any of the nuclear weapons in the U.S. arsenal from an internal bomb bay without aircraft modifications. With a range of 16,000 km and a maximum payload of almost 40 tons, the B-36 was capable of intercontinental flight without refueling. The defensive armament consisted of six remote-controlled retractable gun turrets, and fixed tail and nose turrets. Each turret was fitted with two 20 mm cannon, for a total of 16. Recoil vibration from gunnery practice often caused the aircraft's electrical wiring to jar loose or the vacuum tube electronics to malfunction, leading to failure of the aircraft controls and navigation equipment; this was a factor in the crash of B-36B 44-92035 on November 22nd 1950.

For the best part of 20 years, Arsenal were labelled as being ‘soft’ and were constantly told to ‘toughen up and get on with it’ when there were so many shocking decisions against us. Now Arsenal are back on top, they hate it. Drink it in, we deserve this period

The Douglas B-18 Bolo was built to carry twice the bomb load and range of the Martin B-10. Entering service in 1937, the twin-engine bomber hit 215 mph with a 4,500-pound bomb load and six-man crew. About 350 were produced before newer bombers replaced it in frontline service.🫡

Two workers went to work drilling a water well and ended up fighting for their lives. A routine job turned into an explosion when the crew reportedly hit a pocket of natural gas underground, a risk no one on that property expected. Two children were inside the home and were, thankfully, not hurt. We are keeping these workers and their families in our thoughts as they fight to recover.

Back in 1994, Clinton’s team looked the other way on Iranian weapons flowing to the Bosniaks via Croatia, even as the UN arms embargo was still in place and mujahideen were battling the Serbs on the ground. It tipped the balance and helped plant radical Islamist networks in Europe. Six years before 9/11.

BSA And Recoil Bug on SO-14 The SO-14 currently has a bug related to its "BSA". When you fire without a finger holding on the screen, the weapon functions as per intended, no BSA and extremely low recoil. However, firing with an additional finger holding on the screen will result in the weapon having noticeable recoil and bullet spread. This means that tracking is currently not viable with this weapon as any movement to your aim will cause the gun to be inaccurate. #CODMobile #callofdutymobile #codm #codmnews #codmleaks Follow Us & Join our Discord server for the latest news and leaks.

France: Nice Shooting Nice is a city on the southeastern coast of France, at the foot of the Maritime Alps. It used to be that the city was considered an idyllic tourist destination on the Côte d’Azur, but apparently Nice isn’t so nice these days: two people were killed there last night by automatic weapons during a culture-enriching gun battle. Two deaths and several very seriously ounded. October 3, 2025. A shooting with “automatic weapons” in the Moulins quarter has resulted in several victims on Friday, in Nice. Two people are deceased, two people are critically wounded, and three others are slightly wounded.” This is the toll confirmed on Friday evening. The French blog François deSouche reports that according to various French news sources, some of the victims were bystanders. All of the victims were “non-Europeans”, and according to Le Figaro, one of them was a Chechen national.

The "Doppelglock" (double-glock) is a design made by a gun enthusiast using two Glock 17 or 18 pistols and a scope. Though awesome to look at, It appears to be of no real use, as the weight of the guns will decrease accuracy no matter the scope. Also, with the recoil going in two opposite directions, it won't be long before the coupling/frame gets damaged or fails altogether.

Strike on “Flamingo”: Russian forces hit facilities linked to Ukrainian missile production Overnight, Russian strikes targeted not just military facilities, but an entire chain of Ukraine’s military-industrial complex — from missile engine and electronics production to the assembly of attack drones. According to Russia’s Defense Ministry, facilities in Kiev , Lviv, Ivano-Frankivsk, Rivne, and Dnipropetrovsk regions were hit. These sites are involved in the production and maintenance of weapons. In Lviv, strikes hit the Lviv State Aircraft Repair Plant, which is involved in aircraft repairs and the production of missile engine components, as well as the “LORTA” plant, which produces onboard electronics, radar systems, and equipment for missile systems. In the Ivano-Frankivsk region, strikes targeted facilities linked to the production and storage of missile weapons, including the ground-launched “Flamingo” cruise missiles. In Kiev , facilities involved in the production of drone components and ammunition were hit, including the “Mayak” plant, which produces weapons components and attack drone elements, as well as enterprises producing reconnaissance and strike UAVs. The Rivne chemical plant “Rivneazot” was also targeted — a facility that produces components for missile systems and chemical materials used in the defense industry. In the Dnipropetrovsk region, the target was the “Aquaplast” turbofan plant, which, according to the Russian Defense Ministry, is involved in assembling attack drones, unmanned boats, and repairing military equipment. In addition to defense industry facilities, military airfields, telecommunications, and logistics centers in Kiev , Lviv, and several other Ukrainian regions were also targeted.

The original model of 1x1x1x1 made by Mewsitive in 2014 actually has an earlier version attached to it. This earlier version has a glowing torso, as well as a script that made him shed blood upon being harmed. It would also add the health and level to the humanoid name, harm you when touched, and respawned upon death. These were removed in a 2015 update to the model.
