Turkish air defense system, Siper, successfully hits target at 62 miles
A long-range Turkish indigenous air defense missile, Siper, was successfully test-fired and it hit the target with a range of more than 100 kilometers (62 miles), a top defense official said Friday.
"A New Year's gift to our nation as we enter the Turkish Century from our defense industry," tweeted Ismail Demir, the head of Türkiye's Defense Industries Presidency.
The Siper project is led by Türkiye's defense giants Aselsan and Roketsan, as well as the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Türkiye (TUBITAK).

New nanoscale 3D printing material designed by Stanford engineers could offer better structural protection for satellites, drones, and microelectronics
Science fiction envisions rapid 3D printing processes that can quickly create new objects out of any number of materials. But in reality, 3D printing is still limited in the properties and types of materials that are available for use, especially when printing at very small scales.

Researchers at Stanford have developed a new material for printing at the nanoscale – creating structures that are a fraction of the width of a human hair – and used it to print minuscule lattices that are both strong and light. In a paper published in Science, the researchers demonstrated that the new material is able to absorb twice as much energy than other 3D-printed materials of a comparable density. In the future, their invention could be used to create better lightweight protection for fragile pieces of satellites, drones, and microelectronics.

Pulitzer race to resume in May for electric aircrafts
The National Aeronautic Association will host a four-day, 1,000-nautical-mile air race for electric aircraft in May, resuming the renowned races that began in the 1920s.
TsAGI, MSU Scientists Sum Up Yearly Results of WCRC ‘Supersonic’ Activities
Developing supersonic civil aviation is a global challenge for contemporary research community. Scientists from TsAGI (a part of NRC "Zhukovsky Institute") are among those who are working on the issue.
TsAGI Studying Bartini's VTOL Tiltrotor Model
Today, there is ongoing demand for quick intra-urban and interurban travels for short distances. Thus, it is increasingly demanding to create small aircraft that would do the job.
Scientists from TsAGI (a part of NRC "Zhukovsky Institute") tested model of vertical takeoff-and-landing tiltrotor aimed for flights within high-density urban areas. Bartini Design Company was the customer.
Russia’s United Aircraft Corporation completes Su-57 deliveries for 2022
Despite international sanctions on critical components and financial capital, UAC says it delivered the final planned batch of advanced Su-57 fighter jets to Moscow's armed forces
A330 wing-tip carved into protruding tail after crew tried to skirt round 777
Nigerian investigators have determined that a Middle East Airlines Airbus A330-200 crew vainly attempted to skirt round an incorrectly-parked Boeing 777-300ER, instead of stopping and requesting guidance, before the two aircraft collided.
