этот QF-86F пережил два прямых попадания телеметрических AIM-9 в одном полете, сначала ракета срезала оперение, а затем другая попала в сопло двигателя, но самолет продолжил управляться хоть и с потерей тяги и был успешно посажен!
Только узнал что "цыгане" в фильме Гая Ритчи "Большой куш" — вовсе не те цыгане, с которыми знакомы мы.
Gypsy — это на английском слово которое обозначает кочевников, а кочевых народностей в мире больше одной.
И вот те gypsy что в фильме это вовсе не ромалэ — это кочевые ирландцы, они же Irish travellers.
The Romani (also spelled Romany /ˈroʊməni/, /ˈrɒ-/), colloquially known as Gypsies or Roma, are a traditionally itinerant ethnic group living mostly in Europe and the Americas and originating from the northern Indian subcontinent,[60][61][62] from the Rajasthan, Haryana, Punjab and Sindh regions of modern-day India and Pakistan.[61][62]

The historical origins of Irish Travellers as a group has been a subject of academic and popular debate. Research is complicated by the fact that the group has no written records of its own.[6][page needed][7] They might be of Romani extraction, although this theory is disputed and theories of pre-Gaelic origin also exist.[8]:43[9] Jean-Pierre Liégeois (fr) wrote that the Irish Traveller Gammon vocabulary is derived from pre-13th-century Gaelic idioms with ten percent Indian origin Romani language vocabulary.[10]
nomad
noun [ C ] US /ˈnoʊ·mæd/
a member of a group of people who move from one place to another, rather than living in one place all of the time
