Major explosion at the Umid gas field in the Caspian Sea near Baku, Azerbaijan.

Note. Is it just me or are we seeing a STUNNING increase in the number of "incidents" at critical infrastructure? If I didn't know better I'd swear we're seeing an undercover cyber war going on between the powers. I BELIEVE and don't know that the Israelis are active against Iranians. A Russian crime organization hit us but there are other actors out there going after other targets. Did soneone go after this gas field or was it just a case of people fuck up?

Boeing YC-14 and McDonnell Douglas YC-15 1977 US Air Force; from “Aerospace Power”

Always was a huge fan of the YC-14...would have made an ideal C-130 replacement!

UK Air Component Commander made a tweet about donning protective gear to defeat Daesh...what brought that on?

If the threat dictates, our personnel will don Personal Protective Equipment and carry weapons. A lot of the PPE issued is maintained by our Survival Equipment Technicians 😎

Our teams operate in a safe, but swift manner. 👊Every role plays its part to #DefeatDaesh 🤝 pic.twitter.com/Mw55pTF0zT
