CFMETR , Nanoose Bay The Canadian Forces Maritime Experimental and Test Ranges ( CFMETR ) is a maritime test facility located on the east side of Vancouver Island , at Nanoose Bay . The ranges operated by CFMETR are located over an area of the Strait of Georgia — known as Area " Whiskey Golf " — that is several hundred metres deep , several dozen kilometres long and several kilometres wide over a seabed composed of soft mud and free of underwater obstacles . The facility employs a 3 - dimensional sonar tracking system for monitoring the performance and position of objects in these waters for real - time tracking . Equipment tested at the facility consists of a variety of devices , including sonobuoy s , sonar systems ( ship and aircraft ) , torpedo es and the repair and overhaul of the dipping sonar used on Canada ' s Sea King helicopter fleet . No explosives are used . This facility is unique in the Canadian Forces as it staffed by active military personnel from the Royal Canadian Navy ( RCN ) and DND civilian employees , as well as a small number of U . S . Navy civilian employees from Naval Base Kitsap . The facility is operationally controlled as a field unit of NDHQ . There is a joint funding agreement between the Canadian and United States Governments .

He succeeded Palnatoke as the chieftain of the Jomsvikings , but he proved more wise than brave . In order to win Astrid , the daughter of the Wendish chieftain Burislav , he promised to liberate the Wends of the tribute they had to pay to the Danes . He fulfilled his promise by sailing to Zealand where he sent the message to Sweyn Forkbeard that he had important tidings , but had fallen ill and could not come in person to bring them to him . As Sweyn was curious , he went aboard Sigvaldi ' s ship and was captured by the Jomsvikings . To be liberated the Danish king had to grant independence to both the Jomsvikings and to the Wends , in addition to paying a king ' s ransom . Svein also had to marry Gunhild of Wenden , daughter of Burislav and Burislav married Sweyn ' s sister Tyri . At the funeral of his father , Strut - Harald , Sigvaldi was advised by Sweyn to attack Norway and to depose Haakon Jarl . This promise led to the Battle of Hjörungavágr in 986 , from which Sigvald fled with disgrace .

Kaimingjie germ weapon attack The Kaimingjie germ weapon attack was a Japan ese biological warfare bacterial germ strike against Kaimingjie , an area of the port of Ningbo in the Chinese province of Zhejiang in October 1940 , during the Second Sino - Japanese War . These attacks were a joint Unit 731 and Unit 1644 endeavour . Bubonic plague was the area of greatest interest to the doctors of the units mentioned above . Six different plague attacks were conducted in China during the war , between the start of aggression and the end of the war . Using airdropped wheat , corn , scraps of cotton cloth and sand infested with plague infected fleas , an outbreak was started that resulted in a hundred deaths . The area was evacuated and a 14 foot wall was built around it to enforce a quarantine . The area was eventually burnt to the ground to eradicate the disease . A later attack in 1942 on the same area by the two units led to the development of their final delivery system : airdropped ceramic bombs . Some work was conducted during the war with the use of liquid forms of the pathogen agents but the results were unsatisfactory for the researchers .

It resulted in a French victory under General Victor against Lieutenant General Joaquín Blake ' s Army of Galicia . Battle . On the first day of the battle , Victor , seeking an easy victory to erase his humiliation at Valmaseda , launched a series of ill - advised attacks that were thrown back with heavy losses by the disciplined regulars of General La Romana ' s Division of the North . By nightfall , Blake ' s positions still held . On the morning of 11 November , Victor regained his composure and coordinated a massive French attack that pierced Blake ' s left wing and drove the Spaniards from the field . The French captured a healthy total of 30 guns and 30 standards . Although not a decisive defeat in itself , the hopeless confusion of the tattered and weary Spanish army , which had neither a government nor a military command structure to coordinate it , meant that Espinosa marked the deathblow to Blake ' s Army of Galicia . Blake , to his credit , led his remaining men through an heroic retreat west through the mountains , escaping , to Napoleon ' s disbelief , Soult ' s pursuit . However , when he arrived at León on 23 November , only 10 , 000 men remained under his banner .

Aerial bomb An aerial bomb is a type of explosive weapon intended to travel through the air with predictable trajectories , usually designed to be dropped from an aircraft . Aerial bombs include a vast range and complexity of designs , from unguided gravity bomb s to guided bomb s , hand tossed from a vehicle , to needing a large specially built delivery vehicle ; or perhaps " be " the vehicle itself such as a glide bomb , instant detonation or delay - action bomb . The act is termed aerial bombing . As with other types of explosive weapons aerial bombs are designed to kill and injure people and destroy materiel through the projection of blast and fragmentation outwards from the point of detonation . Early bombs . The first bomb s delivered to their targets by air were launched on unmanned balloons , carrying a single bomb , by the Austrians against Venice in 1849 . The first bombs dropped from a heavier - than - air aircraft were grenades or grenade - like devices . Historically , the first use was by Giulio Gavotti on 1 November 1911 , during the Italo - Turkish War . In 1912 , during the First Balkan War , Bulgarian Air Force pilot Christo Toprakchiev suggested the use of aircraft to drop " bombs " ( called grenade s in the Bulgarian army at this time ) on Turkish positions . Captain Simeon Petrov developed the idea and created several prototypes by adapting different types of grenades and increasing their payload . On 16 October 1912 , observer Prodan Tarakchiev dropped two of those bombs on the Turkish railway station of Karağaç ( near the besieged Edirne ) from an Albatros F . 2 aircraft piloted by Radul Milkov , for the first time in this campaign . After a number of tests , Petrov created the final design , with improved aerodynamics , an X - shaped tail , and an impact detonator . This version was widely used by the Bulgarian Air Force during the siege of Edirne . A copy of the plans was later sold to Germany and the bomb , codenamed " Chataldzha " ( " Чаталджа " ) , remained in mass production until the end of World War I . The weight of one of these bombs was 6 kilograms . On impact it created a crater 4 – 5 meters wide and about 1 meter deep . Technical description . Aerial bombs typically use a contact fuze to detonate the bomb upon impact . Types of aerial bomb :
