Modern cars are becoming highly sophisticated multi-platform systems that use software and electronics, along with mechanical systems, in order to perform their basic functions. As cars grow more complicated with time, the process of repair and maintenance becomes more challenging. Independent shops, dealers, manufacturers, and consumers are all stakeholders in an industry where data access […]
The most compelling part of the Spohn story in automotive history is that the company spans two completely distinct eras of car construction. Before World War II Spohn was well-regarded as one of Germany’s top coachbuilders of luxury and ornate automobile bodies on what would be considered premier European vehicles. It became a well-known supplier […]
Few American weapons are as strongly emblematic of national power as an aircraft carrier. No one’s just looking at a ship here, they’re looking at floating airbases capable of supporting an air wing’s worth of warplanes and operating thousands of miles away from America, projecting U.S. Air power without dependence on foreign lands.

How Russia’s airlines continue to fly planes made with Western technology 20 months after the sweeping sanctions targeted Russia’s aerospace industry-some of the most comprehensive sanctions on aviation ever enacted-the country’s airlines are still able to fly passenger jets designed by Western manufacturers. Even though the U.S. and Europe’s largest aerospace firms severed their direct […]
Few things in nature could inspire such awe-inspiring emotions as the sight of a fast plane taking off from a small lake, and heading into the endless blue sky above. A seaplane or a flying boat must be able to perform on two different mediums which have completely different properties. Such aircraft have to simultaneously […]

For many car fans, American muscle cars have always been way more than just a mode of transportation. Big powerful engines, long hoods, and unique shapes scream style, power, and panache. They have always been exciting, exotic, and a true driving experience that is sadly lacking in today’s performance cars. These types of vehicles have […]
Competition for high speed in aerospace is defining the age. The challenge to design hypersonic aircraft is a major priority in aerospace and defense, but it takes more than an advanced propulsion system. In reality, aircraft and missiles that can operate in flight regimes beyond the speeds of Mach 5 are forcing changes across all […]
Airplanes are usually more talked about for their speeds and dogfights, like bombers are talked about because of how they carry so many bombs and because they fly with an imposing bulk, but when all is said and done logistics decide if war is won or lost. The capability of moving humans and materiel, as […]
