(NSI News Source Info) TORONTO, Canada - January 18, 2015: Iranian experts have successfully tested a new domestically-made fighter jet, called Borhan (Reasoning), in the country’s national wind tunnel facility, the Tasnim news agency reported on Saturday.


The fighter, which is also known as B92, has been manufactured by the Iranian military experts.

Currently, 70 percent of the detail design of the fighter, which is an updated and optimized version of Shafaq fighter, has been completed and its mock-up has been also manufactured.

Some changes have been made in the design of the aircraft to boost its capabilities, compared to Shafaq fighter, including its vertical tail as well as the airfoil of its wings.

(NSI News Source Info) TORONTO, Canada - January 18, 2015: The aircraft carrier George Washington has not been attacked, and World War III has not begun, despite what tweets from United Press International say, the Navy has confirmed.

 The carrier is in port, not in the South China Sea, the Navy told Military Times on Friday.

 UPI issued a statement on Friday saying its Twitter account and website had been hacked on Friday afternoon.

 "It started on Twitter, where six fake headlines were posted in about 10 minutes, starting about 1:20 p.m. Some of them were about the Federal Reserve; others contained a false report that the USS George Washington had been attacked."

 Editors learned of the hacking when they noticed a "breaking news" banner for a false story about the Federal Reserve, the statement said. UPI's technology team was able tor regain control of the Twitter account.

 The tweets were deleted from UPI's Twitter feed about 2 p.m. on Friday.
