4 . 5×26mm MKR The 4 . 5mm MKR cartridge was a prototype Swedish rifle cartridge . History . The 4 . 5mm MKR was originally developed by Interdynamic AB , a Swedish company , in the 1980s , right around the time of the " micro - caliber " craze , when firearms companies everywhere were trying to achieve a type of practical and cheap ammunition . Micro - caliber ( less than 5 millimeters ) ammunition wished to achieve high velocity , flat trajectory and good penetration in automatic weapon , and with low recoil , but the tiny size of the bullet required a simple blowback operation style rather than more complex forms of operation . Lightweight bullet , 1 . 58 grams , achieved a muzzle velocity of about 3270 feet per second . The effectiveness of this bullet was claimed to be on par with 5 . 56x45mm NATO bullet up to 300 meters . Due to concerns about stopping power , reliability and problems with using rimmed rimfire ammunition the MKR project was abandoned at the prototype stage and thus the 4 . 5mm MKR never saw service or any kind of widespread use . Design . The 4 . 5mm MKR was essentially a . 22 WMR necked down to a 4 . 5mm bullet , designed to be used in the Interdynamics MKR rifle . The Interdynamics cartridge featured curved taper and a 4 . 5mm caliber pointed bullet , made of solid brass .

Williams International Williams International is a manufacturer of small gas turbine engines based in Walled Lake , Michigan , United States . It produces jet engines for cruise missile s and small jet - powered aircraft . History . Dr . Sam B . Williams worked at Chrysler on their automotive turbine systems , but always imagined a wider set of applications for the small gas turbine engine . He left Chrysler to form Williams Research Corporation in Birmingham , Michigan in 1954 . In 1981 , the company became Williams International . It has been building small turbofan engines since the 1950s for use in cruise missiles as well as target and reconnaissance drones . Using the missile engines , Williams developed a series of personal VTOL flying craft , including a jet - powered belt in 1969 , the Williams Aerial Systems Platform ( WASP ) , also known as the " flying pulpit " in the 1970s , and the X - Jet , which was evaluated by the United States Army in the 1980s . The WASP platform was the only competitor to the Garrett STAMP in the United States Marine Corps STAMP ( Small Tactical Aerial Mobility Platform ) program of the early 1970s . Also in the 1980s , Williams identified a need in the general aviation market for a small , light jet engine to power cost - effective personal and corporate jet aircraft . The company introduced the FJ44 engine , which in turn made possible the introduction of a number of small jet aircraft . In 1992 , NASA initiated its Advanced General Aviation Transport Experiments ( AGATE ) program to partner with manufacturers and help develop technologies that would revitalize the sagging general aviation industry . In 1996 , Williams joined AGATE ' s General Aviation Propulsion program to develop a fuel - efficient turbofan engine that would be even smaller than the FJ44 . The result was the FJX - 2 engine . Williams then contracted with Burt Rutan ' s Scaled Composites to design and build the Williams V - Jet II , a Very Light Jet to use as a testbed and technology demonstrator to showcase the new engine . The aircraft and engine were debuted at the 1997 Oshkosh Airshow . The production version of the engine , the EJ22 flew on the prototype Eclipse 500 VLJ ( which had evolved from the V - Jet II ) , but was subsequently replaced by a Pratt & Whitney engine .
United States Military Lands The United States Military Lands were land grants given to Continental Army servicemen by the United States Congress for service in the American Revolutionary War . The United States federal government was often short of money in the country ' s early decades . The government ' s efforts to raise additional money in the early 1790 ' s had met with considerable resistance , most notably the Whiskey Rebellion which had been provoked by a federal tax on whiskey . Nevertheless , the Congress and the administration of President George Washington faced considerable pressure to provide pensions as promised for the veterans that had secured the young nation ' s independence . Besides cash , the federal government ' s only other asset of any value was federal land . Beginning in 1796 , the Congress provided 2 . 6 million acres ( 10 , 500 km² ) of land to Army soldiers and officers , mainly within the Northwest Territory . The decision to offer federal lands to Revolutionary War veterans helped to establish a precedent that would repeated throughout the 19th century in which , wherever feasible , land would be barter ed by the federal government in lieu of making payment in cash .

Russian submarine AG - 22 The Russian submarine " AG - 22 " was an AG - class submarine , designed by the American Holland Torpedo Boat Company / Electric Boat Company , built for the Imperial Russian Navy during World War I . The submarine was fabricated in Canada , shipped to Russia and reassembled for service with the Black Sea Fleet . Her reassembly was completed in 1919 by the White Movement during the Russian Civil War , and she joined Wrangel ' s fleet as it evacuated the Crimea in 1920 and was interned in Bizerte , Tunisia in 1921 . " AG - 22 " was abandoned there and subsequently scrapped . Description . " AG - 22 " was a single - hulled submarine , with a pressure hull divided into five watertight compartments . The submarine had a length of overall , a beam of and a draft of . She displaced on the surface and submerged . The AG - class submarines had a diving depth of and a crew of 30 officers and enlisted men . The submarine had two three - bladed propellers , each of which was driven by a diesel engine as well as a electric motors . This arrangement gave " AG - 22 " a maximum speed of while surfaced and submerged . She had a range of at while on the surface and at while submerged . Her fuel capacity was of fuel oil . The AG - class submarines were equipped with four torpedo tube s in the bow and carried eight torpedoes . For surface combat they had one deck gun . Construction and service . The Holland 602 design was widely exported during World War I and the Imperial Russian Navy ordered a total of 17 , in three batches , of a version known as the " American Holland " - class ( AG in Russian for " Amerikansky Golland " ( American Holland ) ) . The submarines were to be built in Canada as knock - down kit s for assembly in Russia . Steel for the first three submarines ( , " AG - 22 " , and ) of the second batch ordered by the Russians was assembled in Saint John , New Brunswick by May 1916 . Five months later , they were sent to Vancouver by rail in sections where they were loaded into ships and shipped to Vladivostok . There they were loaded onto the Trans - Siberian Railroad and transported to Nikolaev where they were assembled by the Russud Shipyard . Assembly was delayed by the unrest caused by the Russian Revolution and the subsequent Russian Civil War and was not completed until 1919 . By this time , Nikolaev was controlled by the Whites and they took " AG - 22 " with them when they evacuated the Crimea in late 1920 as part of what came to be called Wrangel ' s Fleet . They ultimately were granted asylum in Bizerte in February 1921 . " AG - 22 " was abandoned there in November 1923 and subsequently scrapped .
Volcan Army The Volcan Army was a Chadian insurgent rebel group that was active during the Chadian Civil War . The movement was founded in 1970 by the Arab insurgent leader Mohamed Baghlani , who had been expelled in June from the FROLINAT by the organization ' s secretary - general Abba Siddick . The new group was of islamist tendency and was mainly composed of Arabs who shunned Siddick ' s leadership of the FROLINAT ; it was based in Libya . For several years , till about 1975 , the Volcan Army was a negligible force on the ground ; after that it started slowly expanding . Among the new members arrived in 1976 Ahmat Acyl who attacked Baghlani ' s authority with the support of Libya in January 1977 ; and when Baghlani died in a car accident in Benghazi on March 27 , Acyl became the new leader of the militia with the full support of the Libyan president Muammar al - Gaddafi , of whom Acyl was to become his most loyal man in Chad . Under Acyl ' s leadership the group rapidly expanded , coordinating its activities with Oueddei Goukouni ' s larger People ' s Armed Forces ( FAP ) in the prefectures of Biltine and Salamat . While remaining much fewer in numbers than both the FAP and the Armed Forces of the North ( FAN ) , its 400 - 500 men were reputed to be among the most resolute fighters of the insurgency . Its expansion represented the participation in the civil war of the populations of central Chad , especially of the major Arab bedouin tribes . The Volcan Army was often accused of tribalism , with its deep suspicion for the " zuruq " , the blacks , and in particular for the " Gorane " ( i . e . Toubou ) which dominated the FAP and FAN . These suspicions erupted in the summer of 1978 when the Volcan forces attacked , sobilliated by Qaddafi , the FAP ' s positions at Faya - Largeau , but were easily repelled . Since the Volcan Army had become by the first months of the year the group most heavily supported by Libya , Goukouni readily understood that the Libyans were behind the acretaliated by breaking all ties with Qaddafi . Relations between Acyl and Goukouni were still frosty in 1979 , when Goukouni temporarily allied himself with Hissène Habré in February during the battle of N ' Djamena , in which the southern - dominated government disintegrated . The international community , led by Nigeria , tried to bring order to the expanding chaos in Chad through a series of international peace conferences . But the first peace conference held in March excluded minor factions , like the Volcan Army ; as a reaction they created the Front for Joint Provisional Action ( FACP ) , a counter - government supported by Libya and opposed to the new Transitional Government of National Unity ( GUNT ) . As the first compromise proposals failed , the FACP swiftly renamed itself Democratic Revolutionary Council ( CDR ) , and assumed as its leader Ahmat Acyl . By this moment the Volcan Army was to be known as the CDR .
