I knew we were going to get toasted, I didn't bother as well.... Let's check out this weekend, provided there's no outdoor event to attend this spring grin

BTW, nice location, I remember when it got a revemp when I was still at Skyscrapercity

That Buffel is a museum item. Buffels were replaced by the Mamba back in 1995. Only military still using them is Sri Lanka, using a variant known as the Unibuffel. Uganda's military also transferred theirs to the police.

We're also spectators, though I don't much care for football.
The Rugby World Cup starts in September and as defending champions, losses from now on are especially unacceptable.

Osinbajo Inaugurates World’s First Equatorial Aeronomy Radar


“The SuperDarn, as we have heard, is a network of High Frequency (HF) radars that look into Earth’s upper atmosphere.

“The radars operate round the clock and they observe the motion of charged particles (plasma) in the ionosphere and other effects that provide scientists with information on Earth’s space environment.

“Their work provides insights into space weather hazards. So all long distance High Frequency signals such as in ocean going vessels, aircraft, global broadcast communications and short wave radio communication may be affected by irregularities in the ionosphere.

“These irregularities degrade HF and GPS signals; the SuperDarn discovers these irregularities so that remedial action may then be taken.”


“But irregularities in the ionosphere are also found in the lower latitudes, the equatorial low latitudes, and because there was no SuperDarn, the causes of degrading HF and GPS signals have remained a mystery.

“This is a major leap forward in finding solutions to degradation of HF and GPS signals and will directly impact so many aspects of life and commerce.

Osinbajo said the project could radically transform communications – infrastructure, space research, equipment design, geo-mapping, forecasting and prediction of atmospheric, climatic and oceanic conditions within Nigeria and the near low latitudes.

The vice president said it could be useful for offshore oil exploration activities, support the activities of the navy by measuring ocean wave heights, surface currents, and surface wind directions over vast, remote areas on Nigerian waterways.

“And it can also significantly change the quality of our communications, telecommunications devices, global positioning systems, satellite communications, military communications, aerial surveillance.

“And in particular the data obtained from the VT-NigerBEAR will be useful in the design of resilient equipment for Nigeria’s communications industry, and for the work of Government agencies such as NASRDA and Nigeria Communications Commission (NCC).

“The data will also be useful for forecasting and prediction purposes for equipment manufacturers, because Nigeria’s growth in technology will also leave us vulnerable to space weather effects.

“With the Canadian SuperDARN for example, Canada utilizes the data obtained from it to plan ahead for challenges such as pipeline corrosion, damage to electrical power grids, degradation of satellite navigation accuracy, loss of radio communications, and damage to telecommunications satellites that facilitate billions of dollars of business every day.



Nice

Kind of related but many don't know it

Is that meteorology is very very important in warfare

Without meteorological inputs at tactical / theater/ strategic levels effectiveness of weapons degrades significantly

It is indispensable

If I remember during WW2 US nearly lost one of their carrier groups due to erroneous meteorological data

Even for something as innocuous as a 81mm mortar , if tied to meteorological inputs can significantly increase grouping accuracy

Let's not even talk about mbrls missiles etc

And it's not limited to kinetic vectors
