I’m willing to bet that a lot of auto manufacturers have sidelines in the arms industries. After all, they have the factories, the equipment and the ability to ramp up for juicy government contracts.
Here’s a quick video essay to introduce you to the Strix – a 120mm, terminally guided, top attack mortar projectile. This thing will happily find and destroy it’s target, even main battle tanks (MBTs) day or night from up to 7 klicks away. All you need is a standard 120mm mortar!
I don’t know what’s more interesting. The presentation, or the cheery, 1970′s science class documentary theme music at the end.

Some community colleges and high-profile universities also offer academic programs not just for Native Americans, but people in the minority, including Asians, Latinos, and African-Americans. If you think you are eligible for minority scholarships, then do not hesitate to fill out the application forms. Sometimes, it is the fear of rejection that stops students from trying to fulfill their dreams. However there are numerous scholarships and opportunities to apply for them so you should avail of them at any chance.
