To the tank T-90AM show.
De jure, it is a profoundly modernized tank T-90S, which is provided to Russian and foreign armies. De facto, T-90AM is practically a brand new tank. The engine power reaches 1130 horsepower - 130 more than the engine power of the T-90S. In addition, the control system replaced the driving lever system used in the former of his predecessors. Relikt explosive reactive armor of the fifth generation protects the tank turret and hull against all existing anti-tank missiles and projectiles.The vehicle is equipped with a remote-controlled machine gun and the gun level is designed to meet the target at a distance of 5 km. It has already been dubbed a "long arm", because none of the existing reservoirs in the world can get a shell or a missile at such a distance.

A little history, please.
In the first set of quantitative easing (QE1), the Fed has been pumping a mere $ 2 to $ 2.5 billion into the economy twice a week, calling it the permanent open market operations market (POMO). When QE2 was announced on November 3, POMO jumped to $ 8 $ 9 billion per day, the dollar dropped like a stone, then fell again the next day. Or consciously and joyfully, it is difficult to say what-the market responded with a sharp rise to a new two-year high on November 4 is the normal order of things. Dollar down, upscale.
