Mungkinkah ada jet Stealth yang tidak boleh dikesan radar, terbang rendah di ruang udara Kota Kinabalu pada 2 pagi, 8 Mac 2012?



UFO di ruang angkasa KK??

Rakan rakan di Facebook ada memberi komen bahawa deruan kuat jet pejuang didengari di ruang udara Kota Kinabalu pada jam 2 pagi, 8 Mac 2012. Namun yg menghairankan Radar Lapangan terbang KK mengesahkan tiada pesawat terbang di ruang udara Kota Kinabalu pada jam 2 pagi. Jet pejuang juga lazimnya tidak terbang pada jam 2 pagi. Dan Airport KK ditutup mulai 1 pagi hingga 6 pagi kerana kerja naik taraf landasan.

Adakah mungkin pesawat misteri itu UFO atau pesawat pejuang dan pengebom Amerika Syarikat yang tidak boleh dikesan radar seperti Lockheed F117 Nighthawk Stealth Fighter and Bomber??



Ataupun UFO?? Entahlah, hanya Tuhan yang mengetahui.

This is what supersonic looks like..



The breaking of the sound barrier is not just an audible phenomenon. As a new picture from the U.S. military shows, Mach 1 can be quite visual.


This widely circulated new photo shows a Air Force F-22 Raptor aircraft participating in an exercise in the Gulf of Alaska June 22, 2009 as it executes a supersonic flyby over the flight deck of the aircraft carrier USS John C. Stennis.

The visual phenomenon, which sometimes but not always accompanies the breaking of the sound barrier, has also been seen with nuclear blasts and just after space shuttles launches, too. A vapor cone was photographed as the Apollo 11 moon-landing mission rocketed skyward in 1969.

Mach 1 refers to a speed of 1,225 kilometres per hour!!! or 761 miles per hour!!!

The phenomenon is not well studied. Scientists refer to it as a vapor cone, shock collar, or shock egg, and it's thought to be created by what's called a Prandtl-Glauert singularity.

Here's what scientists think happens:

A layer of water droplets gets trapped between two high-pressure surfaces of air. In humid conditions, condensation can gather in the trough between two crests of the sound waves produced by the jet. This effect does not necessarily coincide with the breaking of the sound barrier, although it can. To learn more, click here.

The aircraft carrier was participating in Northern Edge 2009, an exercise focused on detecting and tracking things at sea, in the air and on land.

Well, it was not the first time, such scientific supersonic phenomenon was captured on film.



Here an F/A-18 Hornet jetfighter was captured travelling at transonic speed and displaying the Prandtl–Glauert singularity just before reaching the speed of sound.

Can Superman fly faster than that??? Yes. In one Superman movie, Superman was seen travelling the whole orbit of earth in less than one second!!!

A Tale of Two Gazas

The first tale of GAZA
________________


The ongoing bombardment, air and land assault by Israeli forces on Gaza has killed almost 500 people and injuring thousands others, many of them innocent civilians, child, women and eldery man who have nothing to do with the firing of rockets into Israel by Hamas, which triggered the more than week long attack by arguably the greatest army in the world.

By military strength, Hamas is no match to Israel.

Since Israel became a country in 1948, the U.S. has given $14.9 billion as at 2006, in military aid.
The total number of Israeli military manpower is 2,936,041 or almost 3 million.

Israel's formidable fighting machine includes an air force in which 85% of the 602 combat aircraft are American-built.
F-15 Eagles


F16 Falcons


Among them: 40 F-15 Eagles, 75 F-16 Fighting Falcons, 138 F-4E Phantoms (built by McDonell-Douglas) and 246 A-4 Skyhawks, each boasts a frightening set of deadly weapons including Gatling Guns, air to ground and air to air missiles and Rockets.

A-4 Skyhawks


On the ground, the Israeli army has more than 3,500 tanks, of which 1,460 are from the U.S.

810 of them are highly advanced M-60s Heavy Tanks with a 105 mm main Gun.

and 650 more are M-48s Tanks equipeed with 90mm gun.
The IDF or Israeli Defence Forces also produced their own Tanks - The Merkava.
The 65 tonne Merkava has huge firepower through its primary weapon - a 120 mm gun. It is their main battle Tank..!!

M48 Tanks

Israel has 4,000 Ml 13 armoured personell carrier in its Infantry units.
Nearly 1,000 Artillery units, including 175-mm self-propelled guns and 155-mm and 203-mm self-propelled howitzers, it provide 90% of the Israeli army's powerful force.


175 mm howitzers


Recently Israel has also added into its awesome arsenal - 11 new F-15s fighter jets, 800 more M113 personnel carriers, 200 self-propelled howitzers, 200 improved Hawk antiaircraft missiles and some 1,000 Maverick and Sidewinder missiles.


And Now.....


The second tale of Gaza or rather Gazza

____________________________

The second tale of Gaza or Gazza is not in Gaza, but rather in England.

Paul Gascoigne or better known as Gazza was one of England soccer superstar. He helped England reached the semifinal of the 1990 world cup in Italy – the best ever achievement since England became World Cup winner in 1966.

However after retirement, Gazza still hits the headlines of British and world Media because of his addiction to booze and drugs, which nearly killed him.

Even his 12 year old son, Regan, was reported to have said this “If I could wish, I would wish that he would go away from us. He's probably going to die soon” during a TV documentary shown on Channel 4.

But Gazza is determined to end that miserable life of his by staying sober for 1 month already….

We still remember what happened to Northern Ireland and Manchester United football legend – George Best… whose ravishing lifestyles of booze, drugs, girls and rock n roll had finally taken its tool.. Rest in Peace Mr Best..

And that concludes my tale of the Two Gazas….

Ends.
