What happens in this windowless building in NYC?
The story of a windowless building constructed in the 1970s, known as Project X. It was built to withstand a nuclear attack and is shrouded in espionage.
--------------------
In New York City, a windowless skyscraper stands out among other buildings due to its unique design and purpose. Constructed in 1974 for AT&T, it was built to withstand a nuclear attack, with reinforced concrete walls and towering, fortress-like columns. The building originally served as a hub for the largest long-distance call routing center, handling both domestic and international communications. Its floors, far taller than typical buildings, accommodate large, heavy telecommunications equipment. Due to its Cold War...

How can this LOG save the tank?
Просмотров 17 тыс.16 часов назад
Many tanks in Russia carry a log of wood, see why. The use of logs in tanks such as the M4 Sherman and T-34 dates back to World War II. But it is still used in modern tanks like the T-62, T-72, T-80, and T-90. The large contact area of the tracks distributes the weight force that the vehicle applies on the ground, resulting in a much lower pressure compared to wheeled vehicles. And that's why t...

During the First and Second World Wars , with the war industry running at full throttle, steel became increasingly scarce. Much of it was used for building ships. To overcome this shortage, the United States Maritime Commission ordered dozens of experimental concrete ships. Despite their advantages-being simpler to produce, using more abundant materials, and being resistant to rust-why aren't t...

Просмотров 63 тыс.28 дней назад
The iconic A-10 Thunderbolt II (Warthog) is an aircraft built around its massive 30mm Gatling-style autocannon, capable of slicing through armored vehicles with ease. The secret lies in its depleted uranium ammunition. But what makes this ammunition so effective? And does using uranium turn the weapon into a 'cancer cannon'? Note: "The appearance of U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) visual infor...

Subscribe, it's free! Have you ever wondered why there is that nose at the tip of a ship's hull, just below the waterline? When a ship moves, it expends a certain amount of energy to push the water in front of it out of its way, generating waves that propagate along the hull. Among the different types of ships’ resistances, this wave-making is one that causes the greatest drag. This is where th...

What happens if someone shoots at the tires of a combat vehicle?

If you shoot at the tires, does it render the wheeled combat vehicle useless? Combat vehicles with pneumatic run-flat tires are specially equipped to withstand challenging battlefield conditions and potential tire punctures. Unlike standard tires, these military-grade tires are reinforced with durable rubber rings that prevent collapse when punctured, allowing the vehicle to keep moving. This i...
