Our latest ships-themed HD wallpaper is here. This time we have a great shot of a US Ohio-class ballistic missile submarine leaving port for a deterrence patrol. Known in the Navy as Boomers, these boats are built to lurk in the deep oceans, watching and waiting for the order that everyone hopes will never come. […]
Ah, the A-10A Warthog. Quite possibly the ugliest warplane ever to fly. But there is a good reason this ugly bird still serves: it’s so damn good at it’s job. It doesn’t need to be beautiful to wow the crowds, not when it’s combat record speaks for itself. The plane itself is built around a […]
As a follow-up to yesterday’s B-52 wallpaper, we have here a great picture of the Stratofortress in action, dropping tonnes (literally) of bombs on some unfortunate target. The ability to accurately drop dozens of bombs from high altitude ensures the B-52 will remain in service for many years to come. This amazing wallpaper is free […]
Our latest aircraft wallpaper shows the famous and venerable B-52 Stratofortress bomber flying over open water. This vast aircraft was designed in the late 40’s, put into service in the 50’s and yet remains in service today, and is expected to go on serving for many more years. It’s amazing longevity stems from its adaptability […]
This is a truly awesome image for you all. It shows the combined might of a nation on exercise in the Pacific near Guam; three American aircraft carriers (The USS Kitty Hawk, USS Enterprise and USS John C. Stennis) in formation, with destroyers and frigates on the flanks and two attack subs proudly leading the […]
HMS Victory, Nelson’s legendary flagship at Trafalgar, was a 100-gun first-rate ship of the line, built in 1765 and remaining in service to this day. With over 800 men aboard, conditions were cramped and battles were fierce and brutal. Cannons fired, muskets flashed and men, including Lord Nelson himself, succumbed to mortal wounds. This image […]
We continue our ships theme with another mighty warship, this time the HMS King George V, a super-dreadnought battleship built just prior to World War Two. Her main armament is clearly visible in it’s unusual arrangement of a quad-turret with a twin turret superfiring over it. The quad turrets were an innovative way to save […]
We’re back with another great ship wallpaper for you, this time featuring the mighty aircraft carrier USS Enterprise, CVN-65, on patrol in the Persian Gulf. In this image, the venerable carrier is turning hard to port to bring her bows into the wind, a necessary move prior to launching aircraft from her catapults. The extreme […]
We’re back to our Ships theme today, with this great HD wallpaper showing an F/A-18 multirole fighter launching from the USS Ronald Reagan, CVN-76. The fighter has launched from the midships catapults, and the still-raised blast deflector is visible next to an E-2C Hawkeye radar aircraft being readied for launch. Other F/A-18’s of the carrier’s […]
We’re back to our Planes category with another stunning and perfectly-timed image of an American F-15 fighter jet, this time just as it’s breaking the sound barrier. The build-up of pressure and sound waves from the jet’s flight has gathered into that weird looking disc of water vapour around the fighter’s rear. in a fraction […]
In this, our latest HD wallpaper, we see man’s greatest current endeavor in space, the International Space Station, a huge structure of metal and plastic in low Earth orbit. At the left and right at the enormous solar panel arrays that provide essential power for the station, whilst at the centre are the habitable modules. […]
We have another great Hd wallpaper here for you today, this time showing on of NASA’s famous Space Shuttles during a launch. The raw power of the extra rocket boosters is clear, while the Shuttle’s own main engines is less clear. This is because the Shuttle’s main engines burn much hotter and more cleanly, creating […]
No, I don’t mean the lost city. This is our latest HD wallpaper fro the Space category, and it shows the Space Shuttle Atlantis gliding in towards a landing after a successful mission in orbit. The marvel that is the Space Shuttle is clearly on display: a spacecraft that can return, land like an aircraft […]
Today we have another beautiful space wallpaper for you. This great shot shows the Apollo 11 Lunar Module’s Ascent stage moving back into orbit to rendezvous with Michael Collins in the waiting Command Module. Below is the desolate Lunar surface, bu in the distance the half-sphere of Earth rises majestically over the horizon, reminding the […]
