Holzinger - class patrol vessel " Holzinger " class patrol vessels are offshore patrol vessels in use by the Mexican Navy . They are a Mexican design , based on the " Uribe " class bought to the Spanish Naval Company Empresa Nacional Bazán in 1982 . " Holzinger " class patrol vessels have a smaller helicopter deck than the " Uribe " class and have main armaments ( 2 twin US MK1 Bofors 40 mm AA mount ) at A position . They are able to operate on board helicopters ( MBB Bo 105 ) . " Uribe " class ships were the first medium size vessels built by Mexican Navy . Two first hulls were built at Tampico Naval Shipyard ( Tamaulipas ) ; the second two hulls were built at Salina Cruz Naval Shipyard ( Oaxaca ) .
7 . 62 Tkiv 85 The 7 . 62 TKIV 85 , short for " 7 . 62 Tarkkuuskivääri 85 " ( 7 . 62 sniper rifle 85 ) is a bolt action designated marksman / sniper rifle used by the Finnish Defence Forces . It is based on the Mosin - Nagant rifle , using the same ( in some cases antique ) receivers . The Finnish Army has produced such rifles since the nation was founded . The Mosin - Nagant bolt - actions were modified in 1984 by Valmet who also manufactured new barrels for these rifles . The rifles were assembled in 1984 – 1985 by Finnish Defence Forces ( FDF ) " Asevarikko 1 " ( " Arsenal 1 " ) in Kuopio , Finland . Though the 7 . 62 TKIV 85 sniper rifle has been modified extensively compared to the standard Mosin - Nagant rifle , the use of the old receivers in these rifles makes them arguably the oldest small arms in current use by any military . Some of the parts used may date back as far as the 1890s . Another exclusive feature of the 7 . 62 TKIV 85 is its 7 . 62×53mmR chambering . No other currently used military firearm is chambered for this unique Finnish cartridge . The PKM machine guns and other Russian firearms in Finnish service are chambered for the 7 . 62×54mmR cartridge . The standard operating procedure calls for the use of 7 . 62×54mmR cartridges in 7 . 62 TKIV 85 rifles only in emergency situations when 7 . 62×53mmR ammunition is not available . The reason for this is the bullet diameter difference of 7 . 85 mm ( 0 . 309 in ) in the 7 . 62×53mmR versus 7 . 92 mm ( 0 . 312 in ) the 7 . 62×54mmR . Some 7 . 62×53mmR7 . 92 rounds were also loaded with an intermediate 7 . 88 mm ( 0 . 310 in ) diameter bullet .
E120 bomblet The E120 bomblet was a biological cluster bomb sub - munition developed to disseminate a liquid biological agent . The E120 was developed by the United States in the early 1960s . History . The E120 bomblet was one of several biological weapons that were developed before the United States abandoned its offensive biological warfare program in 1969 - 1970 . The E120 was developed in the early 1960s . The Schu S - 4 strain of the tularemia bacteria was standardized as Agent UL for use in the E120 bomblet . Specifications . The E120 was a spherical bomblet with a diameter of 11 . 4 centimeters . It was designed to hold 0 . 1 kilograms of liquid biological agent . Much like the M139 bomblet , the E120 had exterior " vanes " . However , the vanes ' function on the E120 was to cause the bomblet to rotate as it fell , thus shattering and rolling around upon impact while spraying the agent from a nozzle .
Gepanzerte Pioniermaschine Gepanzerte Pioniermaschine ( GPM ) was the design for two prototype armored engineer vehicles for the " Bundeswehr " . At the end of the 1960s , it was determined hitherto the forward troops demanded a better answer than the " Pionierpanzer " 2 currently in use , and in 1972 , research began on the development of an improved successor . The firms Eisenwerke Kaiserslautern ( EWK , now Santa Barbara Systems , a division of General Dynamics ) and Maschinenbau Kiel ( MAK ) were each commissioned to build prototypes . Hull , running gear , and drivetrain were derived from the Bergepanzer 2A1 . Due to the overweight of the system , the engine compartment was covered with an aluminum plate With the digging shovel sideways , despite suggestions , it is incapable of digging the road out from under itself . Front - mounted dozer blade , operated by two pivoting hydraulic telescopic arms Usually the driver operates with the right telescoping arm and the operator with the left telescoping arm . The operator was able to work with both telescoping arms and oversteering the driver . Trials were carried out between 1976 and 1980 and were successfully completed at the " Pionierschule " ( Army School for Engineers and Construction ) in Munich ( now in Ingolstadt ) and at " Bundeswehr Engineers Equipment an Fuel Transportation Systems Test Center " ( ErprSt 51 / now WTD 51 ) , Koblenz . Several problems remained unresolved : " Bundeswehr " decided instead of developing the Pionierpanzer Dachs , it would work on improving the existing PiPz 1 . The main outstanding task is the replacement of the single arm crane of the PiPz 1 with the EWK ' s telescoping shovel .
Festungsfront Oder - Warthe - Bogen The Festungsfront Oder - Warthe - Bogen ( Fortified Front Oder - Warthe - Bogen ) , also called the Festung im Oder - Warthe - Bogen or Ostwall ( East Wall ) , and in Polish the Międzyrzecki Rejon Umocniony ( Międzyrzecz Fortification Region ) , was a fortified military defence line of Nazi Germany between the Oder and Warta rivers . Built in 1934 – 38 , it was the most technologically advanced fortification system of Nazi Germany , and remains one of the largest and the most interesting systems of this type in the world today . It consists of around 100 concrete defence structures partially interconnected by a network of underground tunnels . Some of the forts and tunnels are available for visiting . The most interesting part is the central section , which begins in the south with the so - called Boryszyn Loop near the village of Boryszyn and extends about 12 km to the north . In the central section the bunkers are interconnected with an underground system of tunnels , 32 kilometres long and up to 40 metres deep . In the underground system there are also railway stations , workshops , engine rooms and barracks . It is also the largest European underground bat s refuge , giving shelter to some 32 , 000 bats of 12 species in the wintertime . History . The design works of the fortified defence line started in Germany in 1932 . The first stage , until 1935 , included constructing of water obstacles and 12 light bunker s . Adolf Hitler visited the construction site in the end of 1935 . The end of works was scheduled for 1951 . When the Soviet army reached the defence line in the course of the Vistula – Oder Offensive in January , 1945 , its advance was so rapid that the Germans did not have enough time to man the line adequately . It took only 3 days for it to be broken .

Hussards de Saxe The Régiment des Hussards de Saxe ( Saxon Hussar Regiment ) was a cavalry unit set up in France under the Ancien Régime in 1741 as the Chasseur s de Fischer . In 1761 it was renamed the Dragons - Chasseurs de Conflans , in 1763 the Légion de Conflans and in 1776 it finally became a hussar regiment , being renamed the Conflans - Hussards . It was renamed the Saxe - Hussards on 1 March 1789 . On 1 January 1791 all the regiments of the French Army were renamed after their function and given a precedence number according to their age . The " Saxe - Hussards " thus became the 4th Hussar Regiment . It distinguished itself in the War of the First Coalition before following the advice of General Charles - François Dumouriez and going over to the enemy with its arms and baggage . More than 400 of the " Hussards de Saxe " joined the emigre forces in May 1793 and before joining the Austrian army it had to fight its own depot unit ( which had remained in France and become the 7th Hussar Regiment ) ! In 1793 the Hussards de Saxe fought at the battles of Neerwinden , Namur , Condé , and Valenciennes . In the meantime , on 4 May 1793 , it was removed from the French regimental list , with the other regiments promoted by one number and the former 5th Hussar Regiment ( also known as the " Colonel Général des Hussards " ) replacing it as the 4th Hussar Regiment . In May to September 1793 the " Hussards de Saxe " joined the Army of the Princes and in November that year , after the Army of the Princes was disbanded , switched to serving the Austrians . On 25 April 1798 the " Hussards de Saxe " and the " Hussards de Bercheny " merged to form the Austrian Light Dragoon Regiment # 13 . In 1802 that new unit became the Chevauxlegers Regiment # 6 under Feldmarschallleutnant Prince Franz Seraph of Rosenberg - Orsini .
