It is traditionally dated to the year 634 , and was the only major Persia n victory over the invading Muslim armies . The Muslim forces had already taken Hira and pillaged the surrounding Arab - inhabited areas of Mesopotamia , on the banks of the Euphrates . The fall of Hira shocked the Persians , as the " youthful Yazdgard , began to take the business of the Arabs more seriously . " Yazdgard sent forces to the Arab border areas , and looked to be gaining the upper hand , as Al - Muthanna had to call for reinforcements from Medina . The new Caliph , Umar , sent Abu Ubaid to Mesopotamia to take command from Al - Muthanna . He encountered the main Persian force under Bahman Jaduya , near what is the present site of Kufa . The two forces faced each other on opposing banks of the Euphrates . As it was crossed by a bridge , the battle came to known as the Battle of the Bridge . Abu Ubaid took the initiative , and crossed the river . According to accounts , the sight of the elephants in the Persian army frightened the Arab ' s horses . A white elephant apparently tore Abu Ubaid from his horse with its trunk , and trampled him under foot . At this , and the inability of the Arabs troops to push pack the Persians who had formed a rigged line close to the bridge , the Arabs panicked and fled . According to tradition , Al - Muthanna refused to flee , and remained to fight , losing 4 , 000 men - although any accurate estimates of the figures involved in this and other contemporaneous battles are not known . But sources agree that for whatever reason , Bahman Jaduya did not pursue the fleeing Arab army .

Admiralty Fire Control Table The Admiralty Fire Control Table ( A . F . C . T . ) was an electromechanical analogue computer fire - control system that calculated the correct elevation and deflection of the main armament of a Royal Navy cruiser or battleship , so that the shells fired would strike a surface target . The AFCT MK 1 was fitted to and in the early 1920s , while battleships , , and , and the battlecruiser , received Mk VII tables in the late 1930s . Battleships of the " King George V " class received a Mk IX table , while received the final variant , the Mk X . The AFCT was the successor to the Dreyer tables , developed by Captain ( later Admiral ) Frederic Charles Dreyer , and the Argo Clock , developed by Arthur Pollen , and received developmental input from both men . The Admiralty Fire Control Clock ( AFCC ) was a simplified version of the AFCT and was used for the local control of main armament and primary control of secondary armament of battleships and cruisers , and the main armament of destroyers and other small vessels . Some smaller cruisers also used the AFCC for main armament control . The chief difference between the AFCT and the AFCC was the provision of a paper plotter in the former , which could plot both own ship and target ship movement and record the mean point of impact of the salvoes fired . The AFCT and AFCC were used for gunnery control against surface targets . The High Angle Control System and Fuze Keeping Clock were used for gunnery control against aircraft .

Michael Alexander ( British Army officer ) Michael Charles Alexander ( November 20 , 1920 – December 19 , 2004 ) was a British Army officer , a German Prisoner of War held captive at Oflag IV - C , and later a writer . Alexander was commissioned into the Duke of Cornwall ' s Light Infantry from Sandhurst . He joined the Commandos and later the Special Boat Service . He was promoted Lieutenant in 1941 . Captured in North Africa , as an SBS Commando he would have expected execution rather than prison as Germany regularly killed " saboteurs " . When he informed Corporal Gurney , who had been captured with him , Gurney had a flash of inspiration and declared falsely , that Alexander was related to General Harold Alexander . After that pronouncement they were quickly visited by Field Marshal Erwin Rommel , who decided not to execute both men , but instead transfer them to a German prison . At this time Alexander was transferred to Colditz Castle to join the " Prominente " . There are no records of what happened to Gurney . At Colditz , Alexander and the other prominent figures like him were kept in somewhat better conditions than the other prisoners and had a few special privileges . However they were kept separate from the other prisoners and their obvious " hostage " status was shaky at best . During the night of Thursday April 12 , 1945 , as American gunfire was heard in the distance , the prisoners were led away from Colditz by the SS guards on the direct orders of Adolf Hitler and Heinrich Himmler . The group made their way towards the mountains , from where it had been inferred that Hitler and his followers would make their last stand . Hitler ordered that the Prominente were all to be killed . Obergruppenführer Gottlob Berger , a General of the Waffen - SS , personally broke this news to the prisoners , but then informed them that he would not carry out his order . Instead he loaded the Prominente aboard two trucks and provided them with an armed escort , who were under orders to fire on any who opposed them . The convoy headed towards the American lines and they were soon safe and in their hands . Alexander was promoted Captain in 1946 and invalided out of the Army in 1951 .

IDAS ( missile ) " For other uses , see Idas ( disambiguation ) . " IDAS ( Interactive Defence and Attack System for Submarines ) is a short - range missile currently being developed for the new Type 212 submarine class of the German Navy . IDAS ( based on the IRIS - T air - to - air missile ) is primarily targeted against air threats , such as ASW helicopter s , but also against small or medium - sized surface vessels or coastal land targets . It is currently being developed by Diehl BGT Defence and HDW , which is a part of Thyssen - Krupp Marine Systems ( TKMS ) , to be fired from Type 212 ' s torpedo tubes . IDAS will be fibre - optic guided and officially has a range of approx . 20 km . Four missile s will fit in one torpedo tube , stored in a magazine . First deliveries of IDAS for the German Navy and operational service are planned from 2014 on . The IDAS system is also the world ' s first missile which gives submarines the capability to engage air threats whilst submerged , and the first tube - launched missile that does not emerge in a capsule , but is fired directly from the torpedo tubes . Alternatively , IDAS could be in theory fired from the Gabler Maschinenbau TRIPLE - M mast system , but , at least in the new Type 216 submarine currently under development , IDAS will be fired as normal from the torpedo tubes , while the Muraena will be the primary weapons option for its TRIPLE - M system . On May 2013 , the Turkish company Roketsan and the German IDAS Consortium formed by ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems and Diehl BGT Defence signed a cooperation agreement to develop and supply the submarine - launched IDAS ( = Interactive Defence and Attack System for Submarines ) missile
