เฮลิคอปเตอร์อินเดียสร้างเอง

เฮลิคอปเตอร์อินเดียสร้างเอง





อินเดีย เป็นมหาอำนาจทางการทหารและอุตสาหกรรมของโลก  มีประชากรนับพันล้านคน มีกองทัพที่ยิ่งใหญ่  หลายคนอาจจะมองประชากรอินเดียจำนวนมากอดอยากยากจน  แต่ไม่ได้มองอินเดียในภาพรวมทั้งประเทศว่า เป็นมหาอำนาจ (Power) ของโลกประเทศหนึ่ง  แต่อินเดียไม่ได้แสดงบทบาทเป็นภัยคุกคามต่อประเทศอื่น  เหมือนเช่นสหรัฐอเมริกา หรือสาธารณรัฐประชาชนจีน  แต่อินเดียคือยักษ์ใหญ่ที่มีกระบองของจริง และไม่ได้เกรงกลัวใคร ไม่ว่าหน้าไหนในโลกนี้ก็คงไม่กล้าท้าทายยักษ์อินเดีย

กองทัพอินเดียมีแสนยานุภาพเกรียงไกรไม่ว่าจะเป็นกำลังพลที่มากมายมหาศาล  อาวุธที่ทันสมัยที่สามารถผลิตขึ้นใช้เองโดยอาศัยซื้อลิขสิทธิ์มาจากมหาอำนาจทางอาวุธ (ส่วนใหญ่จะเป็นจากรัสเซีย) อุตสาหกรรมการบินในกิจการทหารก็เป็นอีกเรื่องหนึ่งที่สาธารณรัฐอินเดียพัฒนาไปไกลมาก เพราะสามารถทำการผลิตอากาศยานทางทหารสมรรถนะสูงได้ทุกมิติ ตั้งแต่เครื่องบินลำเลียง เฮลิค็อปเตอร์ ไปจนถึงเครื่องบินโจมตีขับไล่ไฮเท็ค   ก็ล้วนแล้วแต่ทำได้หมด


ฝูงบินเฮลิค็อปเตอร์นี้มีชื่อว่า Sarang (ภาษาสันสกฤต แปลว่า นกยูง) เป็นของกองทัพอากาศสาธารณรัฐอินเดีย ที่ผลิตขึ้นในประเทศโดยHindustan Aeronautics Limited รัฐวิสาหกิจที่ผลิตอากาศยานของรัฐบาล  โดยใช้เทคโนโลยีด้านการบินของเยอรมนี

Here in the northern hemisphere spring is but a rumor. Record snowfalls have taxed budgets and patience, and slowed transit from planes to pedestrians. Not that some aren't enjoying the abundance, as winter sports play out on beautiful frozen blankets of snow. Gathered here are images of people struggling with and enjoying their wintery blasts. -- Lane Turner (47 photos total)

For those who desire a layer of snow with their holiday season it's been mainly green and brown so far this year in the Boston area. Since the start of December, here are some places that have already had the chance to experience the beauty and sometimes annoyance of a winter wonderland. -- Lloyd Young ( 32 photos total)

Europe : Extreme Cold



Frigid temperatures have gripped Europe in the last week, with the mercury reaching as low as 35 degrees Celsius below zero. After what had been a relatively mild winter, the sudden cold caught many unprepared. Eastern Europe is hardest hit, with over 100 deaths in Ukraine, and with over 11,000 people in remote villages cut off by snow in Serbia. Most of the fatalities recorded have been homeless people found frozen to death outside, and emergency tents with hot meals have been set up to help them in several affected countries. Russia and Poland are mobilizing help for the homeless. Travel in Romania has been chaos as a blizzard hampered efforts to clear both rails and roads. Recorded temperatures in Italy were the lowest in 27 years. --Lane Turner (45 photos total)
