In 1942, Polish troops adopted an orphaned Syrian brown bear cub in Iran, enlisted him as Private Wojtek (complete with serial number and rations), and watched him carry heavy artillery shells during the brutal Battle of Monte Cassino. The bear loved cigarettes, beer, and wrestling matches with soldiers — becoming a legend and mascot whose image still adorns the unit's insignia.

There's a machine in Hefei, China that recreates the core of the Sun. 150 million degrees. Plasma so hot it would vaporise anything on Earth. Scientists have spent decades accepting hard limits on how powerful these things can get — break them, and the whole reaction collapses. Last month, China’ artificial sun broke through it and then some.

NATO has a problem it can't solve. Cheap Iranian drones are overwhelming billion-dollar defense systems — and Lockheed, Raytheon, and BAE have come up empty. Now 13 people in a French machine shop have built the answer anyway. No contract. No funding. No permission. Just a jet-powered interceptor that's about to revolutionize drone-on-drone warfare. Check out this video on the Fury 120 interceptor drone.
