There are many variants of C-130, what are marked as "EC-130". Normally this marking means "Compass call" electronic warfare platform.  Jamming enemy communications radio broadcasts and radars are the key roles of EC-130 "Compass call" platforms. And they have not very much effect against troops, who would not use electronic equipment like Walkies-talkie radios.


The main problem with those platforms is that they are good targets for Surface-To-Air missiles, what are modified to home the radio transmitters. The jamming capacity of EC-130 is meant to make enemy transmissions longer, and that would make easier to target them. Also, the mission of jamming platforms is to make the electronic shield attacking fighters and bombers. The jamming capacity is also effective against drones and data communication.


That way of jamming is targeted to enemy aircraft IFF (Identification Friend or Foe) systems, what makes difficult to separate ownership and enemy planes. The problem with jamming systems is that they must be updated, that they could be effective against enemy systems.  The EC-130 "Compass call"/ "Rivet rider" platforms are highly effective part of US. military arsenal, but their missions are so different than other military aircraft. The mission of electronic warfare systems is to stay behind the attacking aircraft and support them with electronic transmissions. Some of those platforms are equipped with special communication systems, what are probably used for giving false commands to the enemy. There is claimed to be systems, what can transfer spoken English to Arabic or worlds of any other targeted group language.


The other version of EC-130 electronic battlefield support plane is "Commando Solo"/"Rivet Rider" variant. The last one planes mission is the little bit different than "Compass call". "Commando Solo" is psychological (PSY-OP) and information warfare (INFO-OP) platform, what missions are highly classified. The "Commando Solo's" major mission is to operate as a flying TV- and radio station, but there could also be a capacity to send so-called subliminal transmissions to the enemy communication network. Those transmissions include short-term "flash" pictures and infrasound messages to enemy troops. Also, EC-130 includes some command posts, what are serving SAC and Special Forces.

The anomalies in gravity might cause dark energy.

"Physicists at UC Berkeley immobilized small clusters of cesium atoms (pink blobs) in a vertical vacuum chamber, then split each atom into a quantum state in which half of the atom was closer to a tungsten weight (shiny cylinder) than the other half (split spheres below the tungsten). (ScitechDaily, Beyond Gravity: UC Berkeley’s Quantum Leap in Dark Energy Research) By measuring the phase difference between the two halves of the atomic wave function, they were able to calculate the difference in the gravitational attraction between the two parts of the atom, which matched what is expected from Newtonian gravity. Credit: Cristian Panda/UC Berkeley" (ScitechDaily, Beyond Gravity: UC Berkeley’s Quantum Leap in Dark Energy Research) Researchers at Berkeley University created a model that can explain the missing energy of the universe. The idea is that the particles and their quantum fields are whisk-looking structures. Those structures form the superstrings that are extremely thi...

When the most advanced tool becomes the enemy of advance.

Why... Above this text is the image that is not made by using AI. I took that image yesterday evening. That thing required a little bit of trouble and time. Walking into that point, taking my cell phone, and taking that picture took time. When I looked at that picture I realized why people use AI in many things. AI offers easy things to get the job done. That easy tool allows people to make thousands of lines of code in minutes.  That is possible if the person uses some code libraries. And that makes a person effective. But that thing is not good for advancement and innovation. Also, that way of making programs is not good for data security. If some hackers get those code libraries that allow them to break the systems those codes are used.  We know that thing. But we ever ask why person makes that thing? Why does that person use libraries and copy-paste? Why that person uses code, that somebody gave to the hard disk? The answer is this something forces a person to make things ...

Neon and time crystals can be the new tools for quantum computing.

"New research investigates the electron-on-solid-neon qubit, revealing that small bumps on solid neon surfaces create stable quantum states, enabling precise manipulation. This research, supported by multiple foundations, emphasizes the importance of optimizing qubit fabrication, moving us closer to practical quantum computing solutions." (ScitechDaily, Quantum Riddle Solved? How Solid Neon Qubits Could Change Computing Forever) Researchers created a superposition in solid neon. And those neon ions, where the system creates superposition in their surfaces.  Making it possible to manipulate those atoms. The atom-based qubit has one problem. Orbiting electrons cause turbulence in their quantum fields. The thing that can solve the problem is to use the quantum fields for the superposition.  If the system can position electrons at a certain point, it can make a small hill to the atom's surface. And the system can use that thing for making quantum superposition between the mos...
