BMP - 23 The BMP - 23 ( " бойна машина на пехотата " ) is a Bulgarian infantry fighting vehicle which was first introduced in the early 1980s . Despite its name , the BMP - 23 is very different from the BMP - 1 and more similar to BMP - 2 . The hull is based around that of the Soviet 2S1 " Gvozdika " , but with thicker armour and a more powerful diesel engine .

Originally designed for anti - submarine warfare ( ASW ) , all 36 boats in this class were built at the United States Coast Guard Yard in Curtis Bay , Maryland . History . The 95 foot patrol boat was originally developed as shallow draft ASW boat and as a replacement for the aging , World War II vintage , wooden 83 foot patrol boats that were used mostly for search and rescue duties . With the outbreak of the Korean War and the requirement tasked to the Coast Guard to secure and patrol port facilities in the United States under the Magnuson Act of 1950 , the complete replacement of the 83 foot boat was deferred and the 95 foot boat was used for harbor patrols . The first 95 foot hulls were laid down at the Coast Guard Yard in 1952 and were officially described as " seagoing patrol cutters " . Because Coast Guard policy did not provide for naming cutters under 100 feet at the time of their construction they were referred to by their hull number only and gained the " Cape - class " names in 1964 when the service changed the naming critera to 65 feet . The class was named for North American geographic capes . The Cape class cutters were replaced by the Island class patrol boat s beginning in the late 1980s and many of cutters were transferred to nations of the Caribbean and South America after they were decommissioned by the Coast Guard . Design . There were three sub - classes or types that evolved as missions for the boat changed . The Type A was outfitted primarily for ASW . The Type B was fitted more for search and rescue ( SAR ) with the addition of scramble nets , a towing bit , and a large searchlight . The Type C vessels were constructed with a deck house aft of the bridge . Sixteen boats were overhauled as part of a renovation program began in the mid - late 1970s .

Recruit Sustainment Program Recruit Sustainment Program ( RSP ) is a program of the United States Army National Guard designed to introduce new recruits to the fundamentals of the U . S . Army before they leave to Basic Combat Training ( BCT ) and Advanced Individual Training ( AIT ) . The motto is " Paratus Preliator " ( prepared warrior ) . The program is based on the three traits of combat ( Mentally Prepared - Administratively Correct - Physically Fit ) and seven traits of character ( Loyalty - Duty - Respect - Selfless Service - Honor - Integrity - Personal Courage ) .

While at RSP warriors do various training that will prepare them for BCT ( e . g . red , white , blue phase will do the 1 - 1 - 1 pt test which is 1 mile in 8 minutes 30 seconds , 1 minute for push - ups , 1 minute for sit - ups , while green phase do the 2 - 2 - 2 which is a 2 mile run in 15 minutes 54 seconds , 2 minutes for sit - ups and 2 minutes for push - ups ; and other types of various training exercises ) . All RSP warriors undergo an Army Physical Fitness Test at every drill .
