HMS Somerset ( 1731 ) HMS " Somerset " was an 80 - gun third rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy , built to the 1719 Establishment at Woolwich and launched on 21 October 1731 . She was the second ship to bear the name . Lord George Rodney , later to triumph at the Battle of the Saintes in 1782 , served in HMS " Somerset " in 1739 while preparing for his Lieutenant ’ s exams . The ship saw action at the Battle of Toulon in 1744 . Toulon was an infamous engagement and consequently no battle honour was awarded . A combined Franco - Spanish fleet that had been blockaded in Toulon for two years finally put to sea , led by Admiral de Court de La Bruyère . The blockading British fleet under Admiral Thomas Mathews was roughly the same size as the Franco - Spanish fleet but fearing that the enemy fleet movement was designed to force him out of position and allow a troop convoy to reach Italy , Mathews ordered his fleet to attack before forming up into line . Admiral Richard Lestock , Mathew ’ s second in command , appears to have deliberately misunderstood his orders , and the resulting battle was indecisive , with the British taking more damage than they inflicted . Mathews was dismissed from the Navy for failing to obey permanent fighting instructions for battle . " Somerset " was broken up in 1746 .
German submarine U - 3519 German submarine " U - 3519 " was a Type XXI U - boat of the German " Kriegsmarine " during World War II . The " Elektroboot e " submarine was laid down on 19 September 1944 at the Schichau - Werke yard at Danzig , launched on 23 November 1944 , and commissioned on 6 January 1945 under the command of " Kapitänleutnant " Richard von Harpe . " U - 3519 " was a brand new , high technology electric boat which could run constantly submerged rather than having to surface to recharge her batteries every day the way submarines until that point had had to do . Unfortunately for the Germans , these advanced vessels were only introduced to the " Kriegsmarine " late in 1944 , much too late to influence the Battle of the Atlantic , and too late for many of them to serve in an offensive capacity at all . With the end of the war near , training on U - boats had dropped to a minimum due to lack of fuel , falling morale and the effectiveness of allied attacks on U - boat construction and preparation . The exception to this were the new Type XXI boats , which continued to train in the Baltic Sea . To prevent this , the Royal Air Force dropped thousands of sea mines into German territorial waters , in the hope that submarines entering or leaving harbour or training in shallow waters would be lost on them . This is what destroyed the " U - 3519 " on 2 March 1945 , when she ran afoul of an air - dropped mine near Warnemünde , in position and sank to the bottom taking all 65 of her crew with her .

Saro Cloud The Saro Cloud was a British passenger amphibian flying boat designed and built by Saunders - Roe as the A . 19 and later produced as the A . 29 for the Royal Air Force for pilot and navigator training . Development . Following on from the success of the A . 17 Cutty Sark the company designed an enlarged version designated the A . 19 Cloud . It had room for a crew of two and eight passengers and like the Cutty Sark was a twin - engined monoplane flying boat with two engines strut - mounted above the wing . The design allowed for flexibility in engine fits and four aircraft were sold to private operators with different engines fitted . First flown in 1930 the prototype was fitted with two 300 hp ( 224 kW ) Wright J - 6 radial engines . The Air Ministry ordered one aircraft for evaluation as a trainer , it was first flown in June 1930 . After evaluation the Air Ministry ordered a total of sixteen aircraft for pilot and navigator training ( in three batches ) to Air Ministry Specification 15 / 32 . Designated the A . 29 the Serval - powered aircraft had room for six students , it had provision to fit gun mountings in the bow and aft compartments , it could also carry four 50 lb practice bombs . Operational history . The first production A . 29 Cloud was delivered to the Marine Aircraft Experimental Establishment for test and evaluation . Following modifications to the hull and steps , the aircraft was delivered to the Seaplane Training Squadron at RAF Calshot in August 1933 . During its career , the Cloud served as training aircraft for both pilots , destined to train on larger flying boats after graduating from the Cloud before being assigned to frontline RAF flying boat units , and navigators , as the cabin was large enough to house several map tables . The final Cloud was delivered to the RAF in 1935 and after only a few years ' service as trainers the last operational aircraft were withdrawn from service in July 1939 . Operators .

VP - 24 VP - 24 , Patrol Squadron 24 was a United States Navy anti - submarine warfare squadron that flew the P - 3 Orion . They were first established during World War II as VB - 104 flying the PB4Y - 1 Liberator in the Pacific Theater of Operations From April 1943 and October 1945 . They were later redesignated VPB - 104 on October 1 , 1944 . Later redesignations included VP - 104 just after the war and VA - HM - 13 , returning to VP - 24 before it was disestablished on April 30 , 1995 as part of the post Cold War drawdown of forces . History . World War II . The squadron was established April 10 , 1943 at Naval Air Station Kaneohe Bay , Hawaii flying the four - engine PB4Y - 1 Liberator with personnel from the VP - 71 who had been flying a similar mission in the two - engine amphibious PBY Catalina . Flight operations began immediately and were eventually conducted from bases including Midway , Canton , Johnston Atoll , Guadalcanal , Munda , Morotai , Tacloban , and Clark Field . Commander Harry E . Sears received the Navy Cross for heroic actions while leading the new squadron in the destruction of several enemy aircraft and ships . The squadron was relieved by VB - 115 on March 29 , 1944 , and returned to the U . S . for rest and rehabilitation . By then the squadron was credited with the destruction of 30 enemy aircraft and 51 ships , with 1 , 252 sorties flown in seven months . By November 1943 they also began flying missions to detect enemy radar installations with specially - equipped Liberators for Lt . Lawrence Heron of the " Cast Mike " team , inspired by what became " Section 22 " using the similar USAF B - 24 " Ferret " aircraft . In mid - summer of 1944 a portion of the squadron was reformed at Navy Auxiliary Airfield Kearney Field while the majority of personnel were at Naval Air Station Hutchinson , Kansas for PB4Y - 1 training . When that was completed and the full squadron assembled in late July , they flew non - stop across the Pacific to NAS Kaneohe Bay . Among the squadron ' s many other subsequent accomplishments , William E . Abbot ( posthumous ) , and Paul F . Stevens received the Navy Cross for separate heroic actions . In March 1945 the squadron moved to Clark Field in Luzon , Philippines and began operational night missions , daily search and reconnaissance patrols , and strikes on targets of opportunity from Shanghai to the coasts of Amami Ōshima , Okinawa and Daito Jima . Lt . Paul Stevens damaged Vice Admiral Yamagata ’ s aircraft which made a forced landing and the admiral committed suicide . He had just been named as the next Undersecretary of the Imperial Japanese Navy . 1950s & 1960s . Squadron Wing assignments from 1950 included :
Caproni Ca . 1 ( 1914 ) " This article is about the World War I bomber . For the pioneering biplane of the same designation , see Caproni Ca . 1 ( 1910 ) . " The Caproni Ca . 1 was an Italian heavy bomber of the World War I era . Development and design . The Ca . 1 was a three - engine biplane of fabric covered wooden construction . It had 4 crew members in an open central nacelle : two pilots , a front gunner , and rear gunner - mechanic , who manned upper machine guns , standing upon the central engine in a protective cage , just in front of the rear propeller . The Ca . 1 had a tricycle landing gear . Italy and Russia were among the first countries to start developing a heavy bomber capability before World War I . The first heavy bomber , designed by Gianni Caproni was a twin - boom biplane , featuring a layout that included three 67 kW ( 80 hp ) Gnome rotary engine s housed one behind the other in a central nacelle , the rearmost driving a pusher propeller , and the other two driving tractor propeller s mounted on the fronts of the two booms . Referred to by Caproni as the Caproni 260 hp and retrospectively , after the war , as the Ca . 30 ) , this design flew in a slightly modified form ( later called the Ca . 31 ) in October 1914 . Test flights revealed the power to be insufficient and the engine layout unworkable . Caproni altered the aircraft , retaining the pusher engine in its original location and moving the other two engines to the front of the booms , directly driving the propellers . With more powerful inline engines , the air arm of the Italian Army became interested in purchasing the Caproni 300 hp ( later known as the Ca . 32 ) , which they designated the Ca . 1 . A total of 166 aircraft were delivered between August 1915 and December 1916 . Some Ca . 1s survived the war to be rebuilt as airliners , able to carry up to six passengers . This conversion became known as the Ca . 56 in Caproni ' s post - war naming scheme . There is some variation in published sources over early Caproni designations . The confusion stems , in part , from three separate schemes used to designate these aircraft - Caproni ' s in - house designations of the time , those used by the Italian Army , and designations created after the war by Caproni to refer to past designs . Operational history . The Ca . 1 entered service with the Italian Army in the middle of 1915 and first saw action on August 20 , 1915 , attacking the Austrian air base at Aisovizza . 15 bomber squadrons ( 1 - 15 " Squadriglia " ) were eventually equipped with Ca . 1 , Ca . 2 , and Ca . 3 bombers , mostly bombing targets in Austria - Hungary . The 12th squadron operated in Libya . In 1918 three squadrons ( 3 , 14 and 15 ) operated in France .

2002 Karachi bus bombing The 2002 Karachi bus bombing was one of a series of deadly strikes on Westerners in Pakistan in 2002 . Details . On May 8 , 2002 , a man driving a car bomb stopped next to a bus in Karachi outside the Sheraton Hotel . He detonated the car , ripping the bus apart , and killing himself , 11 Frenchmen , and two Pakistanis . The 11 Frenchmen were engineers working with Pakistan to design an Agosta 90B class submarine for the Pakistani Navy . About 40 others were wounded . Al - Qaeda was blamed for the blast . On September 18 , 2002 , a man named Sharib Zubair , who was believed to have masterminded the attack , was arrested . In 2003 , two men were sentenced to death for the bombing by a Karachi court . The suspected bombmaker , Mufti Mohammad Sabir , was arrested in Karachi on September 8 , 2005 . There were several convictions in the case , though Pakistani courts have acquitted three defendants by 2009 . Karachigate . Contrary to official announcements by both the Pakistani and French governments at the time , it is now thought unlikely that those responsible for the attack had links to al - Qaeda . French magistrates believe that the attack was orchestrated by Pakistani intelligence and military officials in retaliation for the failure of the French to pay them $ 33 million that had been previously agreed upon . The resulting scandal has been dubbed " Karachigate " . An investigation is currently underway in France in order to establish the extent to which former Prime Minister Edouard Balladur and former President Nicolas Sarkozy were implicated in the sale of kickback s to Pakistan officials . Sarkozy was allegedly involved in accepting kickbacks from Pakistan to fund the presidential campaign of Balladur . When Jacques Chirac came to power , he cancelled the Pakistani official ' s kickbacks , angering those in that country .
HMS Rupert ( 1666 ) HMS " Rupert " was a 64 - gun third rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy , ordered on 26 October 1664 as part of the ship construction programme of that year . She was launched on 26 January 1666 at Harwich Dockyard . In his diary entry of 19 May 1666 , Samuel Pepys of the Navy Board describes a conversation concerning the construction of the " Rupert " that he had with her designer , Anthony Deane : By 1677 the " Rupert " carried a complement of 400 men and 66 guns ( comprising twenty - six 24 - pounders , twenty - four 12 - pounders , fourteen sakers [ 5 - pounders ] and two 3 - pounders ) , but by 1685 she was carrying only 64 guns again ( comprising twenty - four 24 - pounders , two culverins , twenty - six 12 - pounders and twelve demi - culverins ) . In 1697 she was taken into Plymouth Dockyard to be rebuilt by Rosewell , and she was relaunched in November 1703 as a 66 - gun third rate once again . In 1716 she was reduced to a fourth rate , and on 16 August 1736 she was ordered to be taken to pieces and rebuilt at Sheerness Dockyard , although by this date the practice of rebuilding had become a legal fiction , and ' rebuilt ' ships were in practice new vessels incorporating a small portion of their predecessor ' s timber into the construction . She was relaunched on 27 October 1740 as 60 - gun fourth rate ship of the line built to the 1733 proposals of the 1719 Establishment . " Rupert " was broken up in 1769 .
