[Announcement] Badge of Dishonor. The UK’s Failure to Secure Its Military Insignia
Welcome to the latest episode of «When Good Ideas Go Bad,» featuring the UK military’s attempt to update their cap badges in honor of King Charles III. Because nothing screams «national security» like outsourcing your military insignia to a country renowned for its espionage capabilities. Yes, you read that right. The British military, in a bid to save a few pounds, decided to have their new Tudor crown badges manufactured in China. And now, they’re worried these badges might come with a little extra—hidden tracking devices.
In a plot twist that could only be described as «predictable,» UK defense officials are now scrambling to reassess their supply chain. Who could have foreseen that relying on Chinese factories, with their well-documented penchant for surveillance, might backfire? Certainly not the decision-makers who thought this was a brilliant cost-saving measure. Now, the rollout of these badges is delayed, and the British military is left pondering the complexities of global supply chains and the potential risks of foreign manufacturing.
The company at the center of this debacle, Wyedean Weaving, based in Yorkshire, has been working with Chinese factories for over 15 years without any issues—until now. Despite their assurances, the UK government remains cautious, highlighting the broader trend of Western countries grappling with their economic interdependence on China. This isn’t just about badges; it’s about the broader implications for national security and the delicate balance between economic interests and safeguarding sensitive information.
So, sit back and enjoy this riveting tale of geopolitical chess, where the stakes are high, the players are cautious, and the badges… well, they might just be the most high-tech spy gadgets you’ve ever seen pinned to a uniform.

3D Graphics. Unlike 2D this technique is connected only with 3D objects: creation of 3D objects, their animation and visualization. The more complicated the task the more 3D tools will be used. For better understanding of work with 3D graphics we need to point out main tools (techniques) that are used by CG artists:
- modeling;
- 3D animation;
- 3D tracking;
- rendering (shading, lighting and etc.);
