I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could

jez, so it seems.

Oddly what might appear to be sneaky beaky stuff here has often been aired in the specialist magazines ages ago. If you read these magazines you will find full colour photos and diagrams etc that often make valuable training material for our own people. You will find that they were all officially sanctioned.

On Pprune, not so long ago, there appeared a picture of a steely blue-eyed killer. That pic had appeared in a US publication some years earlier.

As for capability, over 30 years ago, I was on a course that used open source material regarding synthetic aperture radar, helmet mounted sights etc. Its all there and usually a video on U-Tube too.
