eSignature Presentation for Procurement Mobile

Any industry involving a large amount of paperwork make use electronic signatures. In other words, all industries make use of electronic signatures because all of them have piles of paperwork to handle. Some examples of such industries include financial, life science, healthcare and pharmaceutical industries.Industries such as the pharmaceutical industry, have a number of licenses and other paperwork that they have to handle and keep track of. It can be a tedious task to perform such cumbersome paper processes. Therefore, e-signatures can facilitate an organisation in keeping a track of all this paperwork, by signing electronically.Healthcare industries usually involve time-sensitive documents, which need to be urgently completed. But, it can take days in case of the traditional wet ink paper signatures for the documents to signNow the signer and back, if the parties are geographically scattered. But with electronic signatures, that is not the case. Geographical barriers do not play a role. Documents which earlier needed days to be completed, can now be signed and sent back within minutes, in the click of a button. Furthermore, it takes a long time to bring assets under management. The time taken by the signing process, if wet ink paper signatures are used, may even further delay the process. But by using electronic signatures, the whole process can speed up.Apart from these, there are many paper prone industries which require huge amount of paperwork and with the use of electronic signatures they can make their everyday processes smoother and more efficient.

Aadhaar does not distribute a "card" in the classical definition of a card. It is rather a 12 digit number that is provided against your biometric data "after" the same has been reduplicated. This means that the number is unique and associated with you and you alone. The Aadhaar number on its own does NOT provide any rights, citizenship or guarantees. It only assures that this is unique and belongs to you and you alone.The NPR  - or National Population Register is a database of Indian Nationals - that uses the biometric reduplicated number of Aadhaar and provides one with a place in the National Population Register i.e. Indian National status.The Multipurpose National Identity card - will be a smart card that will be issued to all people who are in the National Population Register i.e. Indian Nationals.

Very much true.The US military has massive power projection, more than any country in the history of man. The US has 11 (CATOBAR/STOBAR) Aircraft Carriers, while the next country has 1 which is, China, Russia, India, UK, and France. Also, the US Carriers are not just regular carriers, they are known as Super Carriers. Which is a term coined by the public to say that these carriers are so large that they exceed the definition of an Aircraft Carrier. Also, the US carriers were designed in the 70’s and countries are now just starting to make designs that could compete with the American Carriers. However, the US just redesigned the carrier and is coming out with the new Gerald R. Ford Class Carrier, which is supposed to be years possibly decades ahead of any other countries design. If you include Helicopter Carriers, and Amphibious Assault ships, that number jumps up to 20, soon to be 22. Then the next highest is tied between Japan and France with 4. My favorite part about the US having so many Aicraft Carriers is that if we divided them up between the major oceans, we could have 4 in each ocean… Crazy. The US carriers are also nuclear powered, they are the only carriers to be nuclear powered besides the French R91 Charles de Gaulle.Note the types of planes on the US Carriers. If you look at the USS Gerald R. Ford, it is fielding 5 different aircraft. 4 planes and 1 helicopter. We will look at the planes. Woden note, the USN has the 2nd largest Air Force in the world, right behind the USAF.First plane- McDonnell Douglas F/A-18 Hornet/Super Hornet: The plane is one of the most decorated planes, with thousands of successful missions, while requiring 3x less maintenance and failures than its counterparts. The plane has electronic warfare capabilities, air to air, and air to ground capabilities. Also, has spy and early warning capabilities. It was one of the first aircraft to heavily use multifunction displays, which at the switch of a button allow a pilot to perform either fighter or attack roles or both. The airframe is complex yet so simple, that a 4 man team can remove and install a new F404 engine in 40 minutes. Was also one of the very first 4th generation fighter on an aircraft carrier.Second plane- Northrop Grumman X-47B: This guy will be the very first and only Carrier based Drone. Northrop Grumman intends to develop the prototype X-47B into a battlefield-ready aircraft, the Unmanned Carrier-Launched Airborne Surveillance and Strike (UCLASS) system, which will enter service in the 2020s. So it’ll have strike options and surveillance capabilities.Third plane- Northrop Grumman E-2 Hawkeye: Many countries have AWAC systems or Airborne early warning and control. But only the United States have a Carrier based AWAC system. With the creation of this system, carriers that are hundreds of miles away from the nearest AWAC system, this plane gives the ability for a carrier strike group to potentially detect fifth-generation fighters like the Russian Sukhoi Su-57 and the Chinese Chengdu J-20 and Shenyang J-31 farther out. Also, gives the ability to guide fleet weapons, such as AIM-120 AMRAAM and SM-6 missiles, onto targets beyond a launch platform's detection range or capabilities.Fourth plane- Lockheed Martin F-35C Lightning II: This plane is the first and only carrier based 5th Generation Stealth fighter. The plane is meant as an air superiority fighter and a plane capable of ground support. It also has a very low, almost undetectable, cross section and radar signature. Besides radar stealth measures, the F-35 incorporates infrared signature and visual signature reduction measures. With the addition of a 5th generation stealth fighter, this gives the US military and Navy, the opportunity to do more damage and to have true air superiority over all other aircraft carrier based planes and land based planes. The US, in the event of a war, can now bring 5th gen fighters to the battle without the need of the Air Force against other 4th gen fighters, or possibly the few Chinese or Russian 5th gen fighters.Furthermore, the US have some of the best destroyers on the planet. With the highly acclaimed Arleigh-Burke Class Destroyer, and the brand new, low production Zumwalt Class Destroyer. The US has the most destroyers in the world with about double the next country, with another 4 undergoing sea trials and we are currently building 5 more and have awarded contracts for 5 more. By 2024 the US is expected to have 79 destroyers in service.Zumwalt Destroyer- The Zumwalt class warships are the largest destroyer ever built. The USS Zumwalt has unusual hull design optimized for wave piercing. There is a composite deckhouse. Angular shape minimizes its radar signature. The ship has hidden radar and sensors. The despite its size the USS Zumwalt has a radar signature of a fishing boat. Also it has reduced sound and infrared signature what makes this ship harder to detect. The ship is the First american surface warship to integrate electronic propulsion, it generates enough power to light up a small city. Sound levels of the Zumwalt are comparable with Los Angeles class submarines.Arleigh-Burke Destroyer- These guided missile destroyers entered service with the US Navy in 1991 were the first large US Navy vessel designed to incorporate stealth shaping techniques to reduce radar cross-section. Also these are one of the biggest destroyers in the world that incorporate highly advanced weaponry and systems. Hull profile of the Arleight Burke class signNowly improves seakeeping, permitting high speeds to be maintained in difficult sea states. The AN/SPY-1D phased array radar incorporates signNow advances in the detection capabilities of the AEGIS weapons system, particularly in its resistance to enemy electronic countermeasures. Missile are stored in vertical launch systems, that can also house smaller Evolved Sea Sparrow (ESSM) missiles, Tomahawk land attack cruise missiles, ASROC anti-submarine missiles. For point defense the ships are equipped with two Phalanx Close-In Weapon Systems (CIWS). Also there are 324 mm launchers for Mk.46 or Mk.50 torpedoes.Daily dose of freedom right here.Obviously, we can’t forget about the immaculate US submarine fleet. The US has some of the most advanced and quietest submarines. All of them use nuclear propulsion for extended range and stealth capabilities. The US has the…Ohio class (18 in commission) – 14 ballistic missile submarines (SSBNs), 4 guided missile submarines (SSGNs)- The U.S. Ohio-class submarines, of which 14 are Trident II SSBN, each capable of carrying 24 SLBMs. The first four which were all equipped with the older Trident I missiles have been converted to SSGN's each capable of carrying 154 Tomahawk guided missiles and have been further equipped to support Special OperationsSeawolf class (3 in commission) – attack submarines- The Seawolf class boats were intended to seek and destroy the latest Soviet ballistic missile submarines, such as the Typhoon class and attack submarines such as the Akula class. Seawolf class submarines are arguably the quietest submarines in the world ever constructed. It is exceptionally quiet even at high speeds. Most submarines need to keep their speed down to as little as 5 knots to avoid detection by passive sonar arrays, while the Seawolf class are credited with being able to cruise at 20 kots and still be impossible to locate. A Seawolf at 25 knots makes less noise than an older Los Angeles class submarine tied up alongside the pier. And these came out in 1989.Virginia class (11 in commission, 5 under construction, 2 on order) – fast attack submarines- The Virginia class submarines incorporate newly designed anechoic coating, isolated deck structures and new design of propulsor to achieve low acoustic signature. It is claimed that noise level of the Virginia is equal to that of the Seawolf class. The Virginia class submarines are fitted with 12 vertical launch system (VLS) tubes. These are used to launched Tomahawk land attack cruise missiles with a range of 1 700 km. Also there are four 533-mm torpedo tubes. These are used to fire a total of 26 Mk.48 heavyweight torpedoes and Sub-Harpoon anti-ship missiles. It is the first US submarine to employ a built-in Navy SEAL staging area allowing a team of 9 men to enter and leave the submarine.(Improved) Los Angeles class (34 in commission, 2 in reserve) – attack submarines- The Improved submarines are much quieter. It is described that improved Los Angeles class boats are 7 times quieter than the original Los Angeles class boats. The class features a very potent weapon array, including Mk.48 torpedoes, Sub-Harpoon anti-ship missiles and Tomahawk land attack cruise missiles. Tomahawk missiles can be launched from torpedo tubes of from dedicated vertical launching systems. These boats can operate under ice where the Russian ballistic missile submarines tend to hide.Surfacing of a US Submarine.Let’s move onto the air. While the USN has a quite capable Air Force. But that is dwarfed by the sheer magnitude and strength of the United States Air Force. The Air Force articulates its core missions as air and space superiority, global integrated ISR, rapid global mobility, global strike, and command and control. The USAF flys a multitude of different planes and helicopters. The USAF is the largest Air Force in the world, here is the list of what America flys. Most of these are at the cutting edge of innovation, with two of them being 5th generation stealth fighters. That’s really really good because no other country has an active 5th gen while the US has 2. The USAF also has the largest bomber, tanker, fighter, and transport fleets in the world. The USAF has so many staging areas around the world, that the US can have bombers or any other planes on station, anywhere around the world in a matter of hours.Attack: A-10, AC-130, MQ-1, MQ-9Bomber: B-1B, B-2, B-52HElectronic warfare: E-3, E-8, EC-130Fighter: F-15C, F-15E, F-16, F-22 (5th gen), F-35A (5th gen)Helicopter: HH-60, UH-1NReconnaissance: MC-12, RC-135, RQ-4, RQ-170, U-2, U-28Trainer: T-1, T-6, T-38, T-41, T-51, T-53, TG-16Transport: C-5, C-12, C-17, C-21, C-32, C-37, C-130, C-40, CV-22, VC-25Tanker: KC-10, KC-135Let’s look at the two of my favorite ones and the most technologically advanced planes in the world.F-22 RaptorThe F-22 Raptor air superiority fighter is almost invisible to radars. This aircraft carries a powerful array of weaponry. It is the most advanced and most expensive production fighter aircraft to date. Many of sensors and avionics of this plane remain classified. Engines of the raptor allow the aircraft to supercruise over long ranges, while thrust-vectoring nozzles, combined with a triplex fly-by-wire flight control system, make it exceptionally maneuverable. The highly integrated avionics systems also include a data-link, inertial navigation system with embedded GPS for high-accuracy navigation, and advanced electronic warfare, warning and countermeasures systems. Two central computers manage the automatic switching of the sensors between completely passive and wholly active operation, according to the tactical situation. Artificial intelligence algorithms fuse data from the sensors and present only relevant information to the pilot to reduce workload while at the same time improving tactical awareness. The datalink allows tactical information to be shared with other F-22s. The tech is so special that other countries, not even NATO allies are given the chance to procure the plane.B-2 SpiritThe B-2A Spirit is the silver bullet of US policy, reserved for use against targets of the highest priority. The B-2's stealth characteristics enable the undetected penetration of sophisticated anti-aircraft defenses and to attack even heavily defended targets. This stealth comes from a combination of reduced acoustic, infrared, visual and radar signatures (multi-spectral camouflage) to evade the various detection systems that could be used to detect and be used to direct attacks against an aircraft. Composites are extensively used to provide a radar-absorbent honeycomb structure; the bomber has a minimal IR signature, does not contrail and uses its shielded APQ-181 radar only momentarily to identify a target just before attacking. The onboard DMS is capable of automatically assessing the detection capabilities of identified threats and indicated targets. The DMS will be upgraded by 2021 to detect radar emissions from air defenses to allow changes to the auto-router's mission planning information while in-flight so it can receive new data quickly to plan a route that minimizes exposure to dangers. Also, most of the B-2s are stationed in Missouri, and they are capable of bombing any target in the world despite being in the heart of America.Now for the US ARMYThe US army it self is massive in numbers, coming in at 1.01 million personnel, it self is one of the biggest standing armies in the world, and that's just one branch of the US military. Also, in the US military, it is the largest branch out of them all surpassing any other branch by almost 600,000 personnel. They provide the bulk of security for the US's foreign interests. The mission of the U.S. Army is to fight and win our Nation's wars, by providing prompt, sustained, land dominance, across the full range of military operations and the spectrum of conflict, in support of combatant commanders. Which is mainly air domination and land domination. They mainly engage is conventional warfare, and asymmetrical warfare. The US Army's main responsibilities is preserving the peace and security and providing for the defense of the United States, the Commonwealths and possessions and any areas occupied by the United States, Supporting the national policies, Implementing the national objectives, Overcoming any nations responsible for aggressive acts that imperil the peace and security of the United States. The US Army is also home to some of the most dangerous, prestigious and hardest working special forces teams in the world such as the frontline special force, the Rangers, we also have the green berets and the iconic 1st Special Forces Operational Detachment-Delta (Airborne) also known as Delta Force. The US army is thought to be one of the most battle tested and battle proven militaries in the world. With the mobility of the USAF an army QRF can be anywhere on earth in less than 24 hours. The US ARMY uses the M1A2 Abrams tank. One of the most badass, heaviest, fastest, and battle hardened tanks in the world.This tank has incredible technology and armor. Also it has seen combat. It is one of the most feared MBTs. The M1A2 offers signNow protection against all well-known anti-tank weapons. This main battle tank uses advanced armor, reinforced with depleted uranium layers. The M1A2 has signNow level of protection against all known anti-tank weapons. It can also employ counter-IED equipment. The tank is armed with the same 120-mm M256 smoothbore gun as its predecessor. Range of effective fire is in excess of 4 km. This main battle tank is powered by a Honeywell AGT1500 gas turbine engine, developing 1 500 hp. The tank is one of the fastest in the world, clocking in (with no governor) at 60 mph while being THE heaviest tank in the world. As of April of 2018, the US has no combat losses with the Abrams, the Abrams has only been lost due to friendly fire, never to enemy fire.I don’t think I need to explain the marines. Just know that they use the same tech as the Army (with some exceptions) but they are also the main invasion force for the US. And they are badass.The US military signNow is massive with the Aircraft carriers and the 700+ military bases around the world. The US is truly the most powerful military in the world. The fact that they can have a men anywhere in the world in less than 24 hours and being able to bomb any place on earth, just proves how powerful the US military is.

Doubtless, Russia’s new weapons are formidable and currently represent the gravest threat to the US missile defence system - in fact, THAAD, Aegis and alike are useless. But I still doubt the fact that Moscow possesses such weapons. Of course, there are videos of how it is being launched, but how Avangard acts high above the Earth is obscure - Putin still shows us the video editing, which looks far from ideal one.Sources with direct knowledge of U.S. intelligence reports on the issue told CNBC that Russia had successfully tested Avangard twice in 2016, while an October 2017 test ended in failure when the platform crashed seconds before striking its target.But I think sooner or later this weapon will be ready. And here is another problem that Moscow has to face: money. The Russians are grappling with buying their weapons, though they often make great inventions. Russia’s 5th generation stealth fighter, Su-57, is far from being a production-ready - the Kremlin has ordered only about 10 units compared to the US 200 F-22 and over 300 F-35, and in the 2020s there will be over a 1000 F-35.The US has the peerless fleet of aircraft carriers with hundreds of F/A-18 Hornets and son will be equipped with F-35s. Russia has only 1 aircraft carrier which is under repair now. The US has 19, which is several times more than all other nations combined.I have even once heard a joke: Who has the largest air force? The US. Who has the second largest? The US Navy. Sorry, it is not a joke - it is unvarnished truth.Russia’s Stealth Su-57:Russia's Su-57 Stealth Fighter Is No Game ChangerThe same has happened to Armata, cutting-edge tank. For years it has been shown on the Red Square, and the Kremlin has been boasting about its capabilities and calling it the killer of American Abrams and German Leopard, but its test operations will only begin in 2019.The US is Accelerating Development of Its Own 'Invincible' Hypersonic WeaponsPentagon is working on the creation of its own hypersonic weapons, as well as measures to counter Russia’s new missiles.US awards $1bn contract for hypersonic missile as it falls behind Russia and China in new arms raceBut we should admit that in spite of the fact that there are doubts pertaining to Russia's hypersonic weapons, the US seems to lag behind.In my opinion, in the near future the US will outcompete other powers. Pentagon now realizes how important missile defences are, and therefore will shift focus from fighter jets and fleet to other types weapons.President Trump has recently announced the creation of the US space forces, which will drastically expand the capabilities of the US. Space forces are necessary to protect the US military satellites and exterminate intercontinental ballistic missiles and hypersonic weapons like Avangard.Lockheed Martin is also working on the all-new SR-72 Blackbird, the inheritor o the legendary SR-71 Blackbird, whose characteristics still excite people interested in the military, which will have a speed over 5 Mach and will be invincible to all available A2/ADs.Despite being used in the s, the design of the Blackbird is very exciting and his max speed is over 3.2 Mach (3500 km/h), cruising speed is stupendous 3.17 Mach(3300 km/h)! During the Vietnam War, it was a nightmare for the Soviets. They fired over 800 missiles at it, but the Blackbird was not shot down! Very impressive. No one has ever done something even close to that. However, due to the high costs of maintenance and fast-wearing engine (plus the lack of targets to be destroyed), in 1998 it was withdrawn from use.The forthcoming will be even more dramatic. There are talks that the SR-72 will two versions: one conventional and one unmanned.In the 2020s, Northrop Grumman will begin the production of the B-21, a stealth bomber with unrivalled capabilities that will remain undetected (or almost undetected) for an enemy’s missile defence.Russia and China have nothing close to the characteristic of B-2 and forthcoming B-21.Information about B-2 stealth bomber.It is a unique heavy penetration bomber. It is the most expensive aircraft in history, with total program cost averaged $2.1 billion!Each taxpayer has paid around $700 for the entire program.For a single B-2, you can buy 10 F-22 Raptors, 70 F-15 Eagles, or over 100 A-10 Warthogs.Each aircraft has a crew of two, a pilot in the left seat and mission commander in the right, and has provisions for a third crew member if needed. For comparison, the B-1B has a crew of four and the B-52 has a crew of five.The B-2 is highly automated, and one crew member can sleep in a camp bed, use a toilet, or prepare a hot meal while the other monitors the aircraft, unlike most two-seat aircraft.The B-2 is capable of carrying 40,000 lb (18,000 kg) of ordnance.The B-2 is considered the most capable and formidable bomber in the world.Source: Wikipedia.Moreover, soon the F-35 will get certain packages that will allow him to become a 6th gen fighter, such as laser-guided bombs, advanced radars and sensors, etc.This will make the F-35 even more powerful. In addition, there are almost 200 air superiority fighters F-22. Thousands of F-16s, F-18s, F-15s(it has zero losses).Beyond the F-22 or F-35: What Will the Sixth-Generation Jet Fighter Look Like?USS Gerald Ford and other aircraft carriers are testing laser weapons, which will effectively counter Russia's Zircon & Avangard missiles, both on the land and sea.However, there are certain realms in which Russia does supplant the US, such as A2-AD systems (anti-access, area-denial missiles) and missile defence. In fact, unique technologies of Russia in this sphere are the inheritance from the USSR and Russia’s current capabilities in this field are very formidable. S-300, S-400 and upcoming S-500, Pantsir S-1, Buk, Tor are really the best in their classes.Here arises the difference in military strategy of the US and Russia. The US counts on its military as primarily offensive weapons (to spread democracy across the world), though Pentagon could also use its aircrafts as interceptors of incoming missiles, while Moscow believes more in the defense and therefore has the best A2/ADs.Even though with less remarkable characteristics than S-400, the US has Patriot.… and THAAD, which is the competitor of Russian S-500(they are both for missile defence, whereas the above described are generally against fighter jets and drones). For now, THAAD is deemed as the most effective system in its class, but the Russians will soon acquire formidable S-500 - doubtless, it will be a state-of-the-art A2/AD.As for China, they are good at the appropriation of intellectual property. For instance, Chinese J-31 uses technologies adapted from F-35. Here's what China plans to do with the J-31 stealth fighter — its copy of the F-35J-15 is literally the copy of Russian Su-33.However, it seems like the Chinese can’t even implement the stolen property properly - China Copied This Russian Jet Fighter (And It Has All Sorts of Problems)Doubtless, the Chinese fighter jets are no competitors to that of the US or Russia. Sorry, China: J-20 Stealth Fighters are No Match for an F-22 or F-35Nonetheless, there is one area in which China is very strong (as Russia) - missile defence, in particular, the so-called aircraft-carriers killer missiles, such as DF-21D, which are allegedly capable of destroying the US carriers (and actually were created with this primary objective). Let us hope that collisions of USS carriers and Chinese/Russian missiles will not occur.China's New Carrier-Killer Missile Could Mean Big Trouble for the Navy…The USA has the largest Navy in the world, equipped with the most advanced technologies. Russia and China are light years behind the US in this field. The USS Nimitz Class Aircraft carrier used to be the most powerful and the largest in its class. The US has nine of them. China and Russia have none of this size. Their carriers are smaller than Nimitz. But recently one country has beat Nimitz. Do you know which? USS Gerald Ford!Above all, the US has absolutely unrivaled fleet of destroyers, cruisers, submarines, corvettes.The USS Zumwalt - the first ever stealth destroyer. Zumwalt has stealth capabilities, having a radar cross-section similar to a fishing boat despite her large size.It costs around $4 billion. Max speed is 62km/h(39 m/h). The destroyer can carry up to 80 missiles, including Tomahawks.I have only named a few examples. I haven’t mentioned the A-10 Warthog, the legendary B-52, B-1 Lancer, and many other state-of-the-art inventions of the US.We do not know the real capabilities of the US army - in the last century, no one knew that the US was developing stealthy F-117 and B-2 and other sophisticated technologies. Therefore, it is highly likely that the US already has weapons that no one has even though of. The US has the largest military budget. It has the best universities (Stanford, Harvard, MIT, Caltech, Columbia) that produce the best engineers and inventors.To elucidate, the US has the most powerful military in the world, though China and Russia challenge and even outcompete it in some areas. And the main obstacle of the Russian military is appropriate funding - they have great engineers and inventions, but, as usual, money determines the course of events.I think that in the long run, China will be able to make truly impressive weapons - Beijing has a steadily increasing military budget and does its best to evolve its R&D capabilities. However, for now, their weapons are mostly based on Soviet, Russian and American technologies.
