Best of luck.

I'd have thought the Pantsir with autocannon would do the job, and then did some more reading.... thousands of rounds for 0.5 hit probability!

Explains alot and I guess the RF and laser directed energy weapon systems are just vapourware at the moment.

Time to build more HAS!

He didn't have microwaves or lasers to play with!

That said, doing it (data centres) on Earth is probably much more feasible!

Might be able to use far field wireless power transfer instead of cables. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireles...

Where was the Ru airfield defence? They have known the only credible threat is drones for ages. Are they stripping 'remote' airfields as they are running out at the front?

Yes, but I suspect a platform could be engineered (low gravity could make it easier) to provide a decent site. Might also put some thermocouple tech there as well to exploit big temp differences over small areas.

5 mins 9 seconds, mostly because I can't spell 24A!

But in some places, night will be substantially shorter.

I think the mine itself is fenced but the old access road isn't. Open track running past a house from a country lane. It's about 5 micro Sv inside a car parked on the country lane.

The mine was closed in 1930 but the detritus left from transporting the uranium ore was never cleaned up.

Well, given the choice I wouldn't pitch my tent there! It's about the same dose as a chest X ray every 2 hours.
