Artillery Gun Module The Artillery Gun Module ( AGM , " Artillerie - Geschütz - Modul " ) is an air - portable self - propelled howitzer designed by Krauss - Maffei Wegmann . It is based on technology used in the German Army Panzerhaubitze 2000 ( PzH 2000 ) system , to provide more air portable self - propelled artillery , transportable by Airbus A400 aircraft . The system is fully autonomous , the crew sitting in the cab , with similar performance to the PzH 2000 , but with reduced cost , crew levels and weight . The AGM uses the PzH 2000 ballistic fire - control computer with integrated NATO Armaments Ballistic Kernel and the Krauss - Maffei Wegmann Artillery Command and Control System . It is a modular system , the gun module can be fitted on a tracked or wheeled chassis . Costs can be reduced by fitting it to a users suitable chassis of choice . Current development vehicles use a MLRS chassis . A vehicle independent auxiliary power unit ( allowing the gun to be used with the carrier engine shut down ) and an inertial reference unit with a Global Positioning System ( GPS ) connection are fitted . During trials in 2006 , a demonstrator vehicle fired a volley of ten 155 mm rounds in 2 minutes and 19 seconds with a crew of two being seated in the fully armour protected cab . Donar . A further development of the AGM was revealed in 2008 as the Donar 155mm self - propelled artillery system . The system uses a modified ASCOD 2 IFV chassis with a newer , more efficient two - man turret with a fully automatic ammunition loading and handling system .
Westland Wagtail The Westland Wagtail was a prototype British Fighter aircraft of the First World War . A single - engined tractor biplane , the Wagtail was a failure owing to the unreliability of its engine , only five being built . Development and design . The Westland Wagtail was designed by Westland Aircraft of Yeovil in 1917 to meet the Royal Air Force Specification IA for a light fighter with superior performance to the Sopwith Camel . Westland ' s design team , led by Robert Bruce , the Company ' s manager and Arthur Davenport , Chief Draughtsman , came up with a design for a small single bay biplane , powered ( like the other competitors for the Specification , the BAT Bantam and the Sopwith Snail ) by the 170 hp ( 127 kW ) ABC Wasp radial engine . The Wagtail was of conventional wood and fabric construction , with the upper wing centre - section having a large cut - out to improve the pilot ' s view , and carrying an armament of two Vickers machine gun s mounted over the nose . An order for six prototypes was placed in February 1918 , ( although the last two were later cancelled ) with the first airframe being used for structural tests and not flown . Delays in delivery of engines delayed flight testing of the Wagtail , with the first to fly , serial number " C4291 " , flying in April 1918 , two months after the airframe was complete . Testing showed that handling of the Wagtail was good , but also quickly showed that the Wasp was unreliable . Although the Wagtail proved the best of the three Wasp engined fighters tested , the Wasp was officially abandoned in October 1918 , which together with the end of the war on 11 November , resulted in it not being adopted as a fighter . Despite this , two further Wagtails were ordered in 1920 , as testbeds for the new 150 hp ( 112 kW ) Armstrong Siddeley Lynx radial . These two aircraft , which had a shorter nose to compensate for the heavier engine , were delivered in 1921 and remained in use until August 1922 .

Type 97 ShinHoTo Chi - Ha The Type 97 ShinhoTo Chi - Ha was a Japan ese medium tank used in World War II that was an upgrade to the original Type 97 Chi - Ha . This design was probably the best tank Japan produced in any large quantity up to 1945 . Development . Japanese Army observers had watched tank developments in Europe and studied as avidly as any European military the operational experiences gained by German , Soviet , and Italian tanks in the Spanish Civil War ( 1936 - 1939 ) . In order to improve the anti - tank capability of the Type 97 Chi - Ha , a new turret armed with a high - velocity 47mm gun was combined with the Chi - Ha ' s hull ; hence the new name " ShinHoTo " ( Japanese : " New Turret " ) . History . When the Type 97 entered service , properly equipped and supported mechanized infantry units were realized . The Type 97 ShinHoTo Chi - Ha first saw action at Corregidor Island of the Philippines in 1942 . The skill with which Japanese commanders maneuvered their mechanized infantry divisions was then best seen in Malaya , where the lighter weight of Japanese medium tanks allowed for a rapid ground advance so heavily supported by armor that British defenders never had a chance to establish effective defense lines . The Type 97 ShinHoTo Chi - Ha served against allied forces throughout the Pacific and East Asia as well as the Soviets during the July – August 1945 conflict in Manchuria . While vulnerable to most opposing Allied tanks ( the US M2 / M3 Light , M4 Sherman , and Soviet T - 34 ) , the 47mm high - velocity gun did give the ShinHoTo Type 97 a fighting chance against them .
Fort Jesup Fort Jesup , also known as Fort Jesup State Historic Site or Fort Jessup or Fort Jesup State Monument , was built in 1822 , 22 miles west of Natchitoches , Louisiana , to protect the United States border with Spain and to return order to the Neutral Strip . Originally named Cantonment Jesup , the fort operated from 1822 until 1846 . After the abandonment of the fort in 1846 , the United States federal government continued to own the abandoned fort site until the privatization of the site in 1869 . History . The Neutral Strip was created after the 1803 Louisiana Purchase , from which arose a disagreement about the location of the border between the American and Spanish territories . In order to avoid a war , the two countries agreed that the land in contention would remain neutral and free of armed forces from either side . This region stretched from Sabine River to Arroyo Hondo and encompassed the land that now makes up modern Sabine Parish , Louisiana . The Neutral Strip remained devoid of government and law enforcement until the Adams – Onís Treaty of 1819 finally set the border at the Sabine River . Zachary Taylor . Colonel ( later General ) Zachary Taylor , - - future President of the United States — established Cantonment Jesup in 1822 after Fort Seldon , a temporary headquarters for General Edmund Pendleton Gaines , was too far from the conflict zone of the Sabine River . Taylor quickly subdued the former Neutral Strip , gaining experience and popularity . The surgeon at the cantonment recorded meteorological observations . His forces , known as the Army of Observation , remained in the fort and monitored the Texas territory as it passed from Spanish to Mexican control , and finally broke away as an independent republic . In 1845 , General Taylor commanded led the US ' Army of Observation into Texas and ignited the Mexican - American War . He would eventually gain popularity from his victories that would propel his political career to the Presidency of the United States of America . Closure . The United States won the war and gained control of Texas , rendering Fort Jesup unnecessary . Officially evacuated in 1846 , the fort thereafter deteriorated . The federal government privatized it in 1869 . State Park . By the 1930s , the only remaining building at Fort Jesup was the kitchen of Enlisted Barracks 4 . Residents of the nearby town of Many , Louisiana raised money to restore the building and turned the area into a park . The site was acquired by the Louisiana Office of State Parks in 1956 , and in 1961 , the fort was designated a National Historic Landmark . Since then , the kitchen has been restored and decorated with historically accurate furniture . An officer ’ s quarters building has been reconstructed , and now serves as a museum . The fort site is located on Louisiana Highway 6 , seven miles ( 11 km ) northeast of Many , Louisiana .
Naval Station Newport The Naval Station Newport ( NAVSTA Newport ) is a United States Navy base located in the towns of Newport and Middletown , Rhode Island . Naval Station Newport is home to the Naval War College and the Naval Justice School . It once was the homeport for Cruiser Destroyer Force Atlantic ( COMCRUDESLANT ) , and now maintains inactive ships at its pier facilities , along with the United States Coast Guard . In BRAC 2005 ( Base Realignment and Closure ) , NAVSTA Newport gained over five hundred billets , in addition to receiving , again , the Officer Candidate School ( OCS ) , the Naval Supply Corps School ( in 2011 ) , and several other activities . COMCRUDESLANT relocated to Naval Station Norfolk in the early 1970s . Mission statement . Naval Station Newport provides the facilities and infrastructure essential to support the operations of tenant commands and visiting fleet units . Current operations . The station is home of the decommissioned after the departure of the USS Forrestal which departed under tow for the inactive ship storage facility in Philadelphia ( USS Forrestal ( CV - 59 ) # Decommissioning and fate ) . The fate of the " Saratoga " has not yet been decided , although it has been requested as a museum ship for nearby North Kingstown . The " Saratoga " is clearly visible from the Newport Bridge ( look to the Northeast of the bridge ) & just North of Coddington Highway , just off - base along the Middletown - Newport border .
General order In militaries and paramilitary organizations , a general order is a published directive , originated by a commander , and binding upon all personnel under his command , the purpose of which is to enforce a policy or procedure unique to his unit ' s situation which is not otherwise addressed in applicable service regulations , military law , or public law . A general order has the force of law ; it is an offense punishable by court martial or lesser military court to disobey one . What makes it a general order ( as opposed to a direct order ) , is that the actor is not explicitly named , nor precisely that ( or whom ) which is to be acted upon . A general order of indefinite duration may be referred to as a " standing order " . Standing orders are necessarily general and vague since the exact circumstances for execution occur in the future under unknown conditions . For example , in most military agencies there is a standing order for enlisted men to salute officers . The officers are required by the same law to return the salute to the enlisted person ; however , the name of each enlisted man is not explicitly named in the order , nor is the name of each officer , nor is the exact time which the salute should occur .
1st Maine Heavy Artillery Regiment The 1st Maine Heavy Artillery Regiment was a regiment in the Union Army during the American Civil War . It suffered more casualties in an ill - fated charge during the Siege of Petersburg than any Union regiment lost in a single day of combat throughout the war . It was also the Union regiment with the highest number of officers killed ( 23 ) . The regiment was mustered in Bangor , Maine , in 1862 as the 18th Maine Volunteer Infantry Regiment and consisted mostly of men and officers from the Penobscot River Valley ( the area around Bangor and points east ) . It was commanded by Col . Daniel Chaplin , a Bangor merchant . Charles Hamlin , son of Vice President Hannibal Hamlin , was originally an officer in this regiment , but was promoted to a position on the staff of Maj . Gen . Hiram G . Berry before it saw significant action . The regiment ' s name was changed in 1863 to the 1st Maine Heavy Artillery Regiment , and it served in the defenses of Washington , D . C . before being reassigned to the Army of the Potomac during the Overland Campaign in the spring of 1864 . At the Battle of Spotsylvania Court House , the regiment took its first heavy casualties — 6 officers and 76 men killed , and another 6 officers and 388 men wounded . At Petersburg , however , an ill - advised charge across an open field toward Confederate breastworks on June 18 , 1864 , ordered by Chaplin , resulted in the greatest single loss of life in a Union regiment to occur in the war , with 7 officers and 108 men killed , and another 25 officers and 464 men wounded . These casualties constituted 67 % of the strength of the 900 - man force . Chaplin survived the action but was later killed by a sharpshooter . All in all , the 1st Maine sustained one of the highest casualty rates in the war , with 421 killed , and another 260 dead of disease . A monument to the 1st Maine stands on the former battlefield at Petersburg .
143 Wing , RCAF No . 143 Wing RCAF was a unit of the Royal Canadian Air Force which served with the Royal Air Force in Europe during the Second World War . RAF Second Tactical Air Force was established on June 1 , 1943 . No . 143 Wing was established on 10 January 1944 . It comprised No . 438 Squadron RCAF , No . 439 Squadron RCAF , and No . 440 Squadron RCAF . As a fighter - ground attack unit , its purpose was to support the Canadian and British troops of 21st Army Group . From 22 / 23 June 1944 to 30 August 1944 the wing was located at B . 5 ( FRESNE CAMILLE ) ( for two days only ) and then Lantheuil ( B . 9 ) , just south of Creully , before moving forward to keep up with the ground forces . The Typhoon aircraft has been painted by Robert Bailey , picturing F / Lt Harry Hardy , RCAF , flying the " Pulverizer 2 " . S / L Donald A . Brewster OBE was the Wing ' s Chief Technical Officer from April 1944 until the end of the war .

Tokyo tanks Tokyo tanks were internally mounted self - sealing fuel tanks used in the Boeing B - 17 Flying Fortress and Consolidated B - 24 Liberator bombers during World War II . Although nicknamed " Tokyo " tanks to dramatically illustrate the significant range they added to the B - 17 ( approximately 40 % greater with combat weights ) , it was also an exaggeration in that no B - 17 ever had the range to bomb Japan from any base in World War II . These fuel tanks consisted of eighteen removable rubberized - compound containers , called cells , installed inside the main wings of the airplane , nine to each side . The main wings of the B - 17 consisted of an " inboard wing " structural panel mounted to the fuselage and mounting the engines and flaps , and an " outboard wing " structural panel joined to the inboard wing and carrying only the ailerons . The Tokyo tanks were installed on either side of the joint ( a load - bearing point ) where the two wing portions were connected . Five cells , totalling capacity , sat side by side in the outboard wing and were joined by a fuel line to the main tank delivering fuel to the outermost engine . The sixth cell was located in the space where the wing sections joined , with the remaining three cells located side - by - side within the inboard wing , and these four cells delivered of fuel to the feeder tank for the inboard engine . The same arrangement was repeated on the opposite wing . The Tokyo tanks added of fuel to the carried in the six regular wing tanks and the that could be carried in a tank that could be mounted in the bomb bay , for a combined total of . The first B - 17s with factory - mounted Tokyo tanks were introduced to the Eighth Air Force in England in April 1943 with the arrival of the 94th and 95th Bomb Groups , but in June 1943 they began to appear in great numbers as replacement aircraft , and from the beginning of July , 1943 , all replacement aircraft were so equipped . All B - 17F aircraft built by Boeing from Block 80 , by Douglas from Block 25 , and by Vega from Block 30 were equipped with Tokyo tanks , and the entire run of B - 17Gs had Tokyo tanks . Although the tanks were removable , this could only be done by first removing the outboard wing panel , and so was not a routine maintenance task . A drawback to the tanks was that there was no means of measuring remaining fuel quantity within the cells . Fuel was moved from the cells to the engine tanks by opening control valve s within the bomb bay so that the fuel drained by gravity . Although the tanks were specified as self - sealing , vapor buildup within partially drained tanks made them explosive hazards in combat .
A - class minehunter ( Turkey ) The A Class is a class of minehunter vessels in the Turkish Navy . In 1999 , the German shipyards Lürssen and Abeking & Rasmussen were contracted to build six Frankenthal class ships for the Turkish Navy , a business worth US $ 630 million . While the first vessel was built in Germany , later ships were constructed by the Istanbul Naval Shipyard . The Turkish Navy has become the second naval force in the world , after the German Navy , to utilize a non - magnetic steel hull in its minehunter vessels .
