🦇A Batmobile has been spotted in Minsk! The car is parked at BelTamozhService and — apparently — is waiting for customs clearance before being handed over to its owner. An identical vehicle was put up for sale in September at the American Mecum auction and was successfully sold. If it’s the same car, it features a powertrain from a 1989 Chevrolet Corvette — a 5.7-liter V8 engine paired with an automatic transmission. The auction listing also noted that the “Batmobile” is equipped with retractable machine guns designed to fire blank rounds.

Not all transmissions are built the same... some are built to dominate the track. The Lenco Transmission is a high-performance gearbox made for one thing pure speed. Unlike conventional systems, it uses a modular planetary gear setup with individual levers for each gear. The result? Lightning-fast shifts with almost zero power loss. Every millisecond saved means more acceleration and a bigger edge on the track. No comfort. No smooth driving. Just raw mechanical precision engineered for maximum performance. This is what real racing technology looks like.

The video shows the trials of the VT-1-1, a turretless tank with 2 x 105 mm guns, firing on the move at the Putlos training ground in 1976. The casemate (turretless) tank, designed for combat while moving, was introduced in Germany in the mid-1970s as a twin-gun casemate tank (the Soviet term for a "turretless tank"). For practical firing tests in the "target pass" mode, two prototypes were built in the mid-1970s. The first prototype, VT 1-1, was armed with two 105 mm guns, while the second, VT 1-2, was equipped with two 120 mm smoothbore guns. Additionally, the VT 1-2 featured a functioning autoloader behind one of the guns, with a firing rate of 10 rounds per minute. The vehicles were developed as part of the KPz 3 or Leopard 3 project. In both prototypes, the main guns were semi-fixed (with aiming and stabilization only in elevation). The chassis solutions were derived from the KPz 70 (MBT 70) program, with the running gear shortened by one road wheel (five road wheels per side). The vehicles weighed 36.8 and 43.5 tons, respectively, with a chassis rotation speed of 60 degrees per second. To achieve high maneuverability on rough terrain, 12-cylinder diesel engines from the MB 873 series with enhanced power were used, equipped with four turbochargers: 2000 hp for VT 1-1 and 2200 hp for VT 1-2. This provided an impressive power-to-weight ratio of 54 and 50 hp/ton, respectively, with acceleration to 55 km/h in 11 seconds, though only in a temporary "turbo" mode, as the standard power was 1600 hp. The accuracy of firing with two guns was unmatched by single-gun tanks, as confirmed by the tests. However, due to the novel combat approach, this revolutionary tank concept was rejected by the customer after trials in favor of the conventionally designed Leopard 2. In essence, although the project was developed as the Leopard 3, a tank for the future, it was, in reality, a parallel project and a potential competitor to the Leopard 2. Achieving the firepower, protection, and mobility of the Leopard 3 within reasonable weight limits was impossible with a conventional layout. At the same time, a significant tactical drawback of the casemate concept (including twin-gun casemate vehicles) is the linkage between the direction of fire and the direction of movement, which in many cases could complicate unit and formation control (according to German experts in the 1970s). Moreover, the VT 1-1 and VT 1-2 can hardly be considered balanced vehicles—they could have been simpler. The vehicles' mobility was exaggerated, with the main engine, transmission, auxiliary engine, batteries, and other systems occupying two-thirds of the vehicle's length. Pros and Cons of VT 1-1 and VT 1-2: Considering the key challenges, the twin-gun casemate concept can be evaluated as follows: Pros: Compact design due to a small internal volume. Two guns provide high firepower and hit probability. Cons: The weight advantage of the casemate design is largely offset by the integration of a second gun. Fire control alone results in high complexity, leading to increased maintenance costs and overall expenses. In 1975/76, five Gefechtsfeldversuchträger (GVT, combat test platforms) were developed and built for further mobility and concept trials. These were smaller than the VT 1-1 and VT 1-2, weighing 30 tons. The GVT 01-05 were equipped only with mock-up guns and laser firing simulators (TALLISSI) and telemetry systems, built using chassis components from the Leopard 1. The GVTs were used at the IABG facility in Lichtenau and the tank training school in Munster to test the twin-gun turretless tank concept in realistic exercise conditions, which is why five vehicles were built. However, the Leopard 2 was already in production, and tank crews showed little enthusiasm for this unconventional vehicle requiring a new approach.

French beauty 1939 Delahaye Type 165 Cabriolet Coachwork by Figoni & Falaschi - Delahaye only built six 12-cylinder Type 165 models in the late 1930s, as production variants of the successful Type 145 competition car. This stunning Figoni et Falaschi-bodied cabriolet was built to represent France at the 1939 New York World’s Fair, an exposition promoted with the slogan “Dawn of a New Day”. While the engine was not completed in time for its display, the modernity and sublime beauty of this car’s flowing styling drew throngs of admirers from the press and public alike. Emile Delahaye was born in Tours, France in 1843. He studied engineering in Angers, France. In 1869 he began work with his engineering degree in applied arts and crafts. Emile Delahaye began business in Tours, France in the middle of 19th Century for the purpose of constructing engines for the ceramic industry. The company branched out and began constructing mechanical appliances such as pumps and engines. In 1888, Delahaye designed an internal combustion engine for the shipping industry. It was not until 1896 that Automobile production began for Delahaye. His first automobiles produced were powered by belt-driven single and twin cylinder engines. Emile used motor racing to promote his vehicles. In 1896, Emile Delahaye entered the Paris-Marseilles race. Not only did he enter a vehicle his company had created, but he entered as the driver. The results were astounding, which truly speaks highly of the caliber and quality of the automobile. The demand for the vehicles began pouring-in and a second factory was opened. After the racing success of its Type 145, Delahaye created the production version, the 12-cylinder Type 165. Two Type 165s were built, and the first was shown in October 1939 at the Paris Auto Salon, the last salon before the war. The second 165 – this cabriolet, with body by Figoni and Falaschi, was so emblematic of 1930s French design that it represented the nation at the 1939 New York World’s Fair. Shipped without an engine because it could not be built in time for the show, an engine sheel, without internals was used instead. The engine-less body was impounded by US Customs when Europe became embroiled in WWII. With Europe engulfed by war by the World’s Fair’s close in 1940, the U.S. Custom’s impounded the Delahaye in New York for the duration of the conflicts. In 1946 Beverly Hills car dealer Roger Barlow purchased the car at public auction, and later that year the Type 165 was fitted with a tuned Cadillac engine. Following his death, it was abandoned by his widow in the 1970s and sold to a tow-truck driver for $1200. After three decades of trading hands at a public auction and receiving a Cadillac engine, it eventually wound up at a used car lot in Honolulu until it was bought by a US military serviceman. It took four years of negotiation, but Peter Mullin and Jim Hull eventually purchased the car in 1985 and spearheaded its restoration. The original engine sheel was tracked back to Count Hubertus von Doenhoff and bought. New engine internals were created from original drawings to finally give the 165 the fully-working engine it was intended to have. This car is now owned by Peter and Merle Mullin and the Peter Mullin Automotive Museum Foundation, where is its displayed in Oxnard, California. © Cars & Motorbikes Stars of the Golden Era #archaeohistories

With a top speed of of 104 mph and designated the fastest tank in the world, the Christie M1931 "Combat Car" was an experimental wheel-to-track vehicle built in the early 1930s. It used helical coil spring suspension and could convert from tracks to large road wheels in about 30 minutes. It was powered by a 338 hp Liberty V-12 aircraft engine. Cavalry versions mounted a .50 caliber heavy machine gun with a coaxial .30 caliber machine gun. Around 7-9 units were produced from 1931 to 1932. The Army retired them by 1936 due to high costs and mechanical complexity.

Make Commercial Trucks Manual Again. The harder a truck is to operate, the harder it is to fake being a truck driver. Newest theft is the Red Bull truck stolen in FL. Last month it was a tanker of bleach in LA. Eight months ago it was another tanker in LA. In one generation, we took Class 8 trucks from two sticks, to one stick, to “push D and go.” Years ago, a truck driver had to actually understand the truck. RPMs. Torque. Grades. Clutch control. Downshifting. Engine braking. Momentum. Transmission speed. Engine speed. What the truck was telling you through the seat, the pedals, and the shifter. Now the truck shifts itself. The computer does the thinking. The driver pool got bigger because the mechanical barrier got smaller. There is a difference between a driver who can operate the machine and a driver who can only aim it. Manuals were and to this day remain the biggest anti-theft device for commercial trucks.

‼️🇨🇳 China has started construction of its fourth Type 004 aircraft carrier, which will become the first nuclear-powered surface combatant of the PRC. According to reports, the new aircraft carrier with a displacement of 110-120 thousand tons is being built at a shipyard in Dalian and is designed as a direct competitor to the American Gerald R. Ford-class aircraft carriers. Unlike previous Chinese ships, the Type 004 will combine a nuclear power plant (based on Longwei reactors) with electromagnetic catapults and a full-size deck, providing virtually unlimited sailing range. The Type 004 is expected to carry an air group of more than 90 aircraft, including 24-30 J-15T fighters and more than 20 fifth-generation J-35 aircraft, as well as KJ-600 AWACS planes and unmanned aerial vehicles. Thus, all this significantly exceeds the capabilities of previous Chinese aircraft carriers (Liaoning, Shandong, Fujian), which are limited either by the absence of catapults or equipped with conventional power plants. The PLA Navy also plans that the Type 004, accompanied by the latest Type 055A/B destroyers and Type 095 submarines, will be able to project power far beyond China's coastal waters, creating a threat to the strategic superiority of the United States on the world’s oceans.

The MK1 Scirocco was styled by Giugiaro and launched six months before the Golf it shared its platform with. For the MK2 in 1981, VW brought design in-house under Herbert Schäfer - Giugiaro submitted a proposal and it was rejected. The result was a longer, lower, more aerodynamic coupe that was 10% more slippery through the air than its predecessor, assembled by Karmann in Osnabrück throughout its eleven-year production run. The range ran from a 1.3L base model all the way to the GTX 16V - which used the same 1.8L 139 HP 16-valve engine as the MK2 Golf GTI. A coupe that shared its running gear with one of the most famous hot hatches in history, in a body that the Golf GTI never had. Produced until 1992. Never directly replaced really. This Scirocco in the video is a GT.

Reno Omokri is trending because the influencer said real time e-transmission can’t work because Peter Obi’s bank has network problems, and US doesn’t do e-transmission of results. Reno asked viewers to factcheck him. — Apparently all his claims are FALSE. He claims Obi’s bank in 2025 was unable to deliver real time transfers, no access to apps or USSD, recoding thousands of complaint affecting 10million users, yet Obi wants INEC to transmit result to 100M people. Actually, Obi doesn’t own a bank. He once worked with Fidelity bank where he was on its board, he also served as board member of Guardian Express Mortgage Bank Ltd, and Future Views Securities Ltd. Fidelity bank has 500,000 shareholders and none is a majority holder. 1. 2. Also, in 2025 Fidelity Bank recorded one of the lowest customer complaints. According to a report by MonieCentral; GT bank, Zenith, Access, UBA and First Bank, had the highest failed transaction volume. While Wema, Stanbic and Fidelity were low. [ Reno Also claimed USA doesn’t do real time electronic transmission of results. Actually, technically they do. The voting machine collects all votes, aggregates and uploads in batches. Not vote-by-vote transmission, but after counting. The same option Nigerians as asking to be made compulsory. Reno only made a smart submission, but false in context regardless. India, USA, Brazil, Russia don’t use vote-by-vote transmission, not because of tech limitations but, for secrecy, live security, and to delay announcements.

He concluded that Obi wants real time electronic transmission so that they can hack the IREV, like 2023 when it was hacked 12million times. This is also false. During the PEPT, an Amazon staff testified, confirming the IREV server was not attacked nor suffered any damages. While INEC insisted it was hacked and suffered glitches. [ Nigerians are saying, Reno is only doing his job after securing an Ambassadorial appointment. While patriotic Nigerians agreed with him, reiterating his point and accusing Obi and normal Nigerians of idiocy. Over the weekend, senate President Akpabio, labelled Nigerians demanding e-transmission, unpatriotic. •• Seeing the “glitches” with IREV, data techies built Citizen Monitors 🗳️. For full live result surveillance from polling units to collation center with live aggregation — a digital situation room. Check it out

Toyota Voxy drivers have explained the reasons behind the high rate of acc!dents involving these vehicles. They primarily attribute the problem to financial pressures, as vehicle owners often impose high weekly sales targets, forcing drivers to rush and speed in order to generate enough income to cover the sales. Some drivers also mentioned the inexperience of certain drivers, who assume that because the Voxy is an automatic transmission vehicle, it is easy to handle and that they are sufficiently skilled to drive it safely, leading to errors and cràshes. Others pointed to passenger behavior, noting that some passengers pressure drivers to reach destinations quickly, which encourages overspeeding and reckless driving.

A video reportedly from Orikhiv in Ukraine's Zaporizhzhia region is said to show Russia using its FAB-3000 glide bomb. Weighing around 3 tons and carrying roughly 1.4 tons of high explosives, the bomb is equipped with a glide kit that allows it to strike targets from long distances without requiring aircraft to fly close to the frontline. If verified, the strike highlights Russia's increasing use of heavy guided glide bombs in Ukraine. Could these long-range precision weapons further shift the balance on the battlefield? #russia #ukraine #BombBlast #RussiaUkraine #RussiaUkraineWar

The Incredible 1936 Bugatti Type 57S Atalante - Ettore Bugatti once said, “Nothing is too beautiful, nothing is too expensive.” This pre-war ride could well be proof of that. The Type 57S Bugatti Atalante is regarded by many as the ultimate example of the art of of Bugatti embodied in its engineering, performance and aesthetics. It is a profound work of automotive art coming from the 1930’s, in which period some of the most beautiful automobiles ever made were created. The rare Bugatti Type 57S Atalante Coupé in question is one of the most desirable cars in the French marque’s century-long history. Designed by the aforementioned founder’s son, Jean Bugatti, the Type 57 included S and SC variants (Surbaissé for “lowered” and Compresseur for “supercharger”) that reached very limited production in the 1930s. Named after Greek heroine Atalanta, the Type 57S and 57SC Atalante featured two-door coupe bodywork, a low-slung chassis and an elegant Art Deco aesthetic. They were at the bleeding edge in terms of tech, too, with a 3.3-liter inline-eight engine that could produce 160 hp for a top speed of 120 mph. (Most cars at that time struggled to hit 50 mph.) Indeed, the Type 57 set numerous world records and won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1937 and 1939. This fine example is believed to be one of only 17 Atalante Coupés to leave the factory. Dating back to 1936, the 86-year-old four-wheeler features a striking two-tone paint scheme, with a glossy black base and a bright-red French curve on each side. It also has stunning riveting throughout its bodywork. 🎥© Cars & Motorbikes Stars of the Golden Era #archaeohistories

The diameter of this aluminum product is 70 cm, the height is about 30 cm, the weight is about 15 kg. The machine copes with the work perfectly - pay attention to the screen! The equipment was created by our holding company "STAN" . The machine is designed for large-sized parts of complex shape. It is capable of working with products up to 2 m in diameter and weighing up to 5 tons. At the same time, the accuracy achieved is up to hundredths of a millimeter. The model is built on a high-rigidity structure, its internal cavities are filled with synthetic granite. As a result, the vibration resistance of the equipment frame is comparable to heavy cast iron. The machine is equipped with a Russian numerical control system and a liquid cooling system. The use of direct drives allows achieving high dynamic stability and eliminating backlash in movement. Among the built-in functions are systems for measuring tools and parts, monitoring processes and industrial safety. 2000VH has no analogues in technical characteristics among domestic equipment and will replace imported models at Russian enterprises. rostecru

What if you could visualise how electricity flows from a wind farm in Scotland to your home in London? Ok it's not quite that simple, but it got me thinking that there must be a way of visualising the complexity of the electricity transmission grid in Great Britain. This is my first attempt… What you're seeing are the real power lines and substations on the transmission grid using OpenStreetMap data. The real connections between each substation are found using PyPSA-Eur as well as calculating the "electrical distance" or impedance between each substation. This is my incredibly basic and naive way of attempting to show the "speed" at which the energy is moving through the network, where the bottlenecks are, etc. I know it's not as simple as this, but it's a first attempt so… 😉 I've also added a way to pick any substation in the network and show how electricity pulses through the rest of the network from that point. This is the magic sauce that really brings to life how much infrastructure electricity has to pass through to get from point A to point B. Of course this isn't really what happens, and there's no demand to soak up the energy. However I think it still serves as an interesting visual of how complex the network actually is and the distances involved to get energy from one side of the country to the other. What do you think? Is this worth exploring further?

A Breakthrough in Robotics: Spherical Gears Enter Mass Production Spherical gears, the kind of joint that would allow a robot to move like a human shoulder, have been notoriously difficult to manufacture with high precision. That's changing, thanks to a new design and a path to mass production that could have a huge impact on robotics. The breakthrough comes from a new design called the ABENICS spherical gear, developed by researchers at Yamagata University. This innovative mechanism enables a joint to move in three degrees of freedom without the slippage issues of earlier designs. It achieves this by using a "cross-spherical gear" that meshes with one or more "monopole gears." Mass production is now on the horizon. Although the initial manufacturing of the gears was inefficient, Nissei Corporation improved the process and established the necessary technology. The companies Kanematsu and Nissei have now entered the marketing phase, with production expected to begin in 2027. The impact of this technology is significant. Mass-produced spherical gears are expected to enable highly versatile and efficient robotic limbs. ► Humanoid and Mobile Robots: The design allows for compact, high-torque ball joints ideal for creating versatile and efficient robotic limbs. ► Aerospace: Potential applications include deployment mechanisms for satellite solar panels. ► Other Industries: The technology is also being explored for its potential to enhance productivity in healthcare, nursing care, and restaurants.

🔴 The IDF just struck a house belonging to the Sabbouh family in the Daraj neighborhood, east of Gaza City. The Daraj neighborhood is known to Israel’s security establishment as an area with intense Hamas activity. It is mainly characterized by its high population density. This is also the reason why, in the past, the IDF refrained from striking it intensively, out of concern that an attack would cause a large number of civilian casualties. And precisely for this reason, Hamas exploits it and operates from within it. The Sabbouh family, and Sheikh Mohammed Sabbouh, are a devoutly religious family well known to Israeli intelligence due to their close ties with Hamas. Intelligence revealed that Hamas has been making operational use of the Sheikh’s properties in the area. Hamas uses the family’s assets as a meeting place for its terror cells, as a command-and-control center, a hideout for its commanders, and has even installed cameras and an observation/anti-tank position there.
