Defense System for Protecting Oil Refinery Assets Against Enemy UAVs Wednesday, Jan 6 2010 

During the cold war we had a some very good anti-aircraft and land based mobile missile defense systems. Could we take one of these systems and scale it down, miniaturize it and use it to defend and protect our oil refineries, infrastructure and national security interests? Could we take let’s say a smaller and lighter version of the “Lance” mobile missile systems of the cold war, with a similar theory and place it on a Sandia “Sarge” type tiny mobile autonomous unit. Then employ these robotic security systems along defendable perimeter locations?

We could put them on the border when we attack Canada and take some property off their hands for aiding and abedding International Terrorists, so if they tried to fly one of those little Israeli UAVs they are buying over our border we would dust it immediately. Just kidding, but we need to be thinking defense and offence here to have a proper discussion on anti-attack defense systems. Obviously we are not going to war with Canada, but we do have our enemies in the Middle East harboring International Terrorists and some State Sponsored Insurgents attacking our troops in Iraq? Could we use such a system like this there to prevent intrusions over the borders? Perhaps we could, but how you ask?

Well lets first look at the issues with guarding oil assets as the International Terrorists wish to take down our economy using oil as a weapon knowing we need the oil to run our civilization. If we pay humans to carry weapons to patrol a perimeter of let’s say an oil refinery then will they be able to take out a single mission UAV which will self destruct and explode on impact and even if they did hit it, which is highly unlikely, could they take out a swarm of them? The answer is no, you have just lost you oil refinery asset.

Now then let us re-think a man-portable stinger missile type system, when you may have to worry about a swarm of these little UAVs, each with 5-10 lbs of plastic explosives or even a smaller payload per explosion of two-hand grenades, you see the problem. The International Terrorists may not be able to take out your entire refinery, but they might get lucky and start an uncontrollable fire.

Remember those Refinery fires outside of London, early reports, which were later denied said that an aircraft flew over prior to the explosions? Well did they throw something out; if so what. Was that aircraft manned or was it a small UAV; if so could it have been shot down with an intercepting UAV devise or a man-portable unit; perhaps? But only if the security force was alerted, actually saw it and focus, identify and fire in time.

Could a man sit and wait to fire it? Do you want to put a unit such as this into the hands of a civilian $10 per hour security guard? Not me? That type of weapon in the hands of the wrong person who knew and was trained how to use it could be used to take out a commercial airliner. Not funny.

Yet if the International Terrorists continue to attack non-military soft targets for PR and oil or natural gas assets we have serious issues as we must defend the flows of our civilization right? So how about an Aerostat or UAV which is tethered on a track with a system on it to detect such an incoming threat which would interact with a robotic perimeter defense system then you could potentially defeat anything which comes close and thus defend such an asset? Think on this.

Military Needs a Fear Reduction Device Tuesday, Sep 8 2009 

Intimidation and fear are something every soldier must over come to be an effective warrior in war. Strength and honor and life and death hang in the balance between bravery and skill. Often the better part of valor is discretion, but too much fear leads to bad choices and failure to engage the enemy at the time and place of your choosing and thus you are relinquished to fighting on them in their own game and not yours.

Indeed at this point you are also of less service to your cause and the safety of your civilization and people. They key to fighting a war is to get your team to control their fear and use that fear to find strength and courage rather than succumb to fear and cowardice.

It has been proposed by a think tanker (me) that we build a unit which would act like a WiFi system for our troops to change their fear to concentration, by sending out proper brain wave conditioning. Of course we would need to leave some “fear” as it is also a “call to action” in the human brain behavior system and part of the fight or flight response.

In this case the brain wave would be blasted which would be made to be reduced to a level that would enable the soldier to over come the flight response and concentrate and key off his teammates to a fight response, thus helping them win the battle and defeat the enemy. Think on this in 2006.

Retire Space Shuttles to the Moon Sunday, Feb 22 2009 

If we are going to retire the Space Shuttles lets retire them to the moon, not some desert for old airliners or some museum. Lets use them as a refuge on the moon. You know when people build a house they often rent or live in an RV on the property until it is built?

Sounds like a good idea right? Sure it does that is why humans do things like this you see. So why can’t we do the same thing with the space shuttle? Take a load of building materials, building robots and tunnel diggers. Take a miniature SpaceHab expandable and some machines to make oxygen from what is there.

Presto! Pop-up moon colony; so when can we get started on all of this, as the Mission to the Moon by 2072 is simply BS. They are talking about going to the moon in 2020? Forget it; that is way too long and is a pitiful excuse for any sort of goal. Who thinks of this stuff anyway? 2020, my gosh you would think that the whole space program got tabled for some reason. What a bunch of weak-minded pansy asses?

Look we have the technology to set up a temporary Moon Colony this year, so lets just do it to prove we can. Then everyone will get all excited and we can put some real hard charging energy back into our space program. The PR will be great for America and it will show the World who has got the spirit; we got the spirit yes we do! Prove it then. Consider this in 2006.

UAV Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Magnet Collection Sunday, Aug 31 2008 

In the future both our own armies and the enemies armies will have unmanned aerial vehicles in the battle space and this means that no one on the ground will be safe from being undetected. This will level the playing field for combat troops and make a tough to beat your opponent.

Eventually unmanned aerial vehicles will need to be able to shoot down other unmanned aerial vehicles so perhaps we will have a bunch of model aircraft flying around trying to shoot each other and do dogfights. As these unmanned aerial vehicles get smaller and smaller down to the size of insects you can imagine how things will change.

Since we know of this potential eventuality we must design future unmanned aerial vehicles with magnets to collect the enemy’s tiny robotic insect like micro-air vehicles. Although this sounds rather science-fiction like it is not, because we know from the computer age that as time progresses such systems get smaller and more robust in their processing abilities. All of this is known fact and thus this will be coming together in human warfare.

Therefore we must be thinking in advance and figure out how we’re going to deal with the enemy that is using the same UAVs that we in fact originally created. In other words if there is no way to shoot down a small UAV that means you cannot shoot down your enemies UAVs either, just like they cannot shoot down yours. We must think ahead for our future fighting force and deal with this issue consider this in 2006.
