TADIL - J TADIL - J refers to " Tactical Digital Information Link " ( TADIL ) J used by the U . S . Navy , U . S . Army , U . S . Marine Corps , U . S . Air Force , the NSA , several NATO countries , and Japan as part of the Multi - Tactical Data Link Network ( MTN ) . TADIL - J refers to the system of standardized " J " series messages which are known by NATO as Link 16 . These are defined by military standard ( MIL - STD ) 6016D . TADIL J was designed as an improved data link used to exchange near real - time ( NRT ) information . It is a communication , navigation , and identification system that supports information exchange between tactical command , control , communications , computers , and intelligence ( C4I ) systems . The radio transmission and reception component of TADIL J is the Joint Tactical Information Distribution System ( JTIDS ) or its successor , the Multifunctional Information Distribution System ( MIDS ) . These high - capacity , ultra high frequency ( UHF ) , line of sight ( LOS ) , frequency - hopping data communications terminals provide secure , jam - resistant voice and digital data exchange . JTIDS / MIDS terminals operate on the principal of time division multiple access ( TDMA ) , wherein time slots are allocated among all TADIL J network participants for the transmission and reception of data . TDMA eliminates the requirement for a net control station ( NCS ) by providing a nodeless communications network architecture . . Other TADILs included TADIL - A , TADIL - B , and TADIL - C , which were known by NATO as Link 11 , Link 11B , and Link 4 respectively . " J " series messages can also be exchanged over IP - based bearers using the NATO - defined SIMPLE protocol and via satellite by S - TADIL J . Change of terminology . TADIL is no longer an official US Department of Defense term ( per DISA guidance ) . Instead it has officially been replaced by the generic term Tactical Data Link ( TDL ) . However , the term " TADIL " is a legacy holdover and still used in the vernacular . See also . Tactical Data Link

Unattended ground sensor The unattended ground sensor ( UGS ) is under development as part of the United States Army ' s Future Combat Systems Program . For information on currently fielded UGS systems , refer to the Current Force UGS Program or CF UGS . The CF UGS systems employ various sensor modalities including seismic , acoustic , magnetic , and pyroelectric transducers , daylight imagers and passive infrared imagers to automatically detect the presence of persons or vehicles , and transmit activity reports or imagery via radio - frequency ( RF ) or satellite communications ( SATCOM ) links to a remote processing , exploitation , and dissemination ( PED ) station . The systems are packaged for concealed emplacement in the field and for long - duration unattended operation . The CF UGS program includes a family of sensors from various companies : E - UGS , Silent Watch , Falcon Watch , Scorpion , OmniSense and OmniSense - Enhanced . The current sources for CF UGS are Applied Research Associates ( E - UGS ) , Harris Corporation ( Silent Watch , Falcon Watch ) , Northrop Grumman - Xetron ( Scorpion ) , McQ Inc ( OmniSense , OmniSense - Enhanced ) . Future combat systems UGS . There are two types of unattended ground sensors that are being fielded under the United States Army ' s Future Combat Systems Program , the Urban UGS or U - UGS and the Tactical UGS or T - UGS . The current generation is manufactured by Textron Defense Systems a subcontractor under Boeing . Tactical unattended ground sensor . T - UGS are small ground - based sensors that collect intelligence through seismic , acoustic , radiological nuclear and electro - optic means . These sensors are networked devices that provide an early warning system to supplement a platoon size element and are capable of remote operation . To an extent T - UGS will detect , track , classify , and identify personnel and vehicles within its coverage area and report to the FCS Network in near real - time . T - UGS comprises the following sensor systems : Urban unattended ground sensor . For urban areas , the urban - unattended ground sensor ( U - UGS ) is used as a surveillance tool during building clearing operations , and in caves , sewers , tunnels , and other confined spaces . Textron Defense Systems , along with Honeywell , designed these wireless , hand emplaced system of sensors to be lightweight and low cost . The U - UGS network is capable of taking field - of - view images of intruders in all light conditions and transmits images to the FCS Network where immediate recognition of human intruders should be achieved or by using the motion detecter sensors only when imaging is not needed , only motion detection The proposed U - UGS sensors are made up of the following :
Austin Ant The Austin Ant ( development code ADO19 ) was a small four - wheel drive vehicle designed by Sir Alec Issigonis for the motor manufacturer British Motor Corporation ( BMC ) . Although the Ant is widely regarded as a military vehicle , some sources suggest it was conceived with civilian use in mind as well . In its military rôle it was a potential successor to the military version of an earlier Issigonis design , the Mini Moke . The Ant was cancelled in 1968 before full - scale production began , during the period when BMC became part of the British Leyland ( BL ) conglomerate ; the merger caused several overlaps in model ranges , and the Ant was regarded as too close a competitor for the Land Rover range . The Ant used an A - Series engine , tranverse mounted and tilted slightly backward to allow greater ground clearance and suspension movement . The main gearbox was placed in the engine sump , as on the Mini . A reduction gearbox took power from the main gearbox to the rear axle via a propshaft . The same layout was used 30 years later ( with a K - Series engine ) on the Rover Group ' s Land Rover Freelander .
203d Air Refueling Squadron The 203d Air Refueling Squadron ( 203 ARS ) is a unit of the Hawaii Air National Guard 154th Wing located at Joint Base Pearl Harbor - Hickam , Honolulu , Hawaii .

From late February to April 1998 , four KC - 135R aircraft from the 203d , and over 200 154th Wing maintenance and support guard members deployed to Istres Air Base , France , to participate in Operation Deliberate Forge . As real world hostilities began , the focus turned to Operation Allied Force . Seventy combat sorties were flown with a 100 percent mission success rate and zero ground / air mishaps or injuries , and over 3 . 9 million pounds of fuel were transferred to U . S . and NATO aircraft . When political and military tensions built up in Southwest Asia , a KC - 135R and guard members from the Squadron and 154th Logistics Group were deployed to Eielson Air Force Base , Alaska , to support Operation Phoenix Scorpion in November 1998 . The unit took part in exercise RIMPAC 2000 , taking place in June 2000 . In February 2001 , a KC - 135 Stratotanker aircraft from the squadron provided assistance to the U . S . Department of Defense humanitarian aid airlift to earthquake stricken India . A 203d KC - 135 tanker took off from Hickam Air Force Base to refuel the first India - bound C - 5 Galaxy cargo aircraft laden with relief supplies . The U . S . Air Force C - 5 aircraft had departed Travis AFB , California , loaded with heavy equipment and other relief supplies needed in the disaster areas . On 4 February 2003 , two squadron KC - 135E Stratotankers from the squadron re - fueled two Air Combat Command B - 1B Lancer s over the Pacific Ocean while the bombers finished up an 19 - hour , more than 15 , 000 mile , global power mission .
Battle of Gur Amba The Battle of Gur Amba was fought on 27 September 1852 between the forces of the Ethiopia n regent , " Ras " Ali II , and the rebel forces of Kassa Hailu . Kassa was victorious , and Goshu Zewde of Gojjam , the commander of the regent ' s forces , was killed . This was the first of a series of four victories which led to Kassa becoming Emperor Tewodros II of Ethiopia . This battle followed three years of peace between Kassa and " Ras " Ali , which ended in 1852 when Kassa refused to respond to " Ras " summons . " Ras " Ali dispatched a large army to Agawmeder after his rebellious vassal , and Kassa responded by moving to a fortified position near Dengel Ber . " Ras " Ali ' s officers found Kassa ' s position too strong to attack , so they bypassed it by moving to Dembiya , where they waited out the rainy season . " Ras " Ali then decided to give the job of destroying Kassa to another of his vassals , Goshu Zewde , and announced at the start of September he had given Kassa ' s lands to Goshu , Sven Rubenson noting that " Ali probably did not care whether his overt enemy or his ally would be destroyed . " The two armies spent much of September maneuvering for position until at last Kassa brought his men down into the plains of Dembiya . Amazed that Kassa would make what appeared to be an obvious mistake , Goshu ' s men immediately charged , and after a full day ' s combat in which both sides suffered heavily Kassa killed his opposing general and completely routed his opponent ' s men , who fled back to Gojjam .

Irish patrol vessel Muirchú Public Armed Ship " Muirchú was a ship in the Irish Naval Service . She was the former Royal Navy ship HMY " Helga and was involved in shelling Liberty Hall in Dublin from the River Liffey with her pair of 12 pounder naval guns during the Easter Rising of 1916 . " Helga " was purchased by the Irish Free State in 1923 and renamed " Muirchú " ( ) . She sank off the Wexford coast after disposal in 1947 . The wheel was recovered from the wreck by local divers and can now be seen in Kehoes Pub in Kilmore Quay The prefix LÉ is sometimes mistakenly used as LÉ " Muirchú " . The prefix was introduced in December 1946 when the Irish Naval Service was established with the purchase of three corvettes from the Royal Navy replacing " Muirchú " . Career . She was built in Liffey Dockyard in 1908 as a fishery research and protection cruiser and was named " Helga II " . Such was interest in her design that Canada ordered two ships to the same specification ( the " Galliano " and " Misalpina " ) . She was then under control of the Department of Agriculture and Technical Instruction ( Ireland ) until she was taken over by the Admiralty in March 1915 when she became officially described as " His Majesty ' s Yacht Helga " , an armed steam yacht - officially an " Armed Auxiliary Patrol Yacht " . At this time the " II " was dropped from her name and she served as an anti - submarine patrol vessel as well as undertaking escort duty in the Irish Sea . In April 1918 she was credited with the sinking of a submarine off the Isle of Man and for the remainder of her career she carried a star on her funnel as an award for this achievement . In October of the same year the RMS " Leinster " was torpedoed off the Kish and 517 were lost . The " Helga " was fuelling in Dun Laoghaire at the time and managed to rescue ninety of the passengers . Perhaps it was for her shelling of Liberty Hall in April 1916 that the " Helga " is best known . She was released from the navy in March 1919 and returned to fisheries work . She was commandeered in July 1922 by the government and used against Anti - treaty forces in Munster . She was later used to transport the British auxiliary troops known as Black and Tans around the coast when many of the roads in Ireland were rendered impassable by Irish forces in the War of Independence . Eventually the " Helga " was handed over to the Irish Free State in August 1923 and was renamed " Muirchú " . She thus became one of the first ships in the newly established Irish Navy . However , in the following year the vessel was returned to the Department of Agriculture and Fisheries to carry on her task of fishery protection . It was not until the actual day on which the Second World War was declared that the Marine and Coastwatching Service was again established and on 12 December 1939 the " Muirchú " was taken over by this Service from the Department of Agriculture and Fisheries . " Muirchú " was sold to Hammond Lane Foundry by Marine Service , and while on passage to Dublin on the 8th May , 1947 she sank off the Saltee Islands - though not before her crew safely evacuated .
Tupolev I - 4 The Tupolev I - 4 was a Soviet sesquiplane single - seat fighter . It was designed in 1927 by Pavel Sukhoi , his first aircraft design , and the first Soviet all - metal fighter . Design and development . After the first prototype ( under the development name ANT - 5 ) , the I - 4 was redesigned with a new engine cowling to decrease drag , added rocket launchers on the upper wing , and a larger tailfin . The lower wing was nothing more than an attachment for the wing struts ; it was ( almost ) removed in the second series ( I - 4bis ) . Operational history . The I - 4 was used as a parasite fighter in experiments with the TB - 3 bomber . The aircraft was in Soviet service from 1928 – 1933 . A total of 369 were built .
Action of 30 March 2010 The Action of 30 March 2010 was a naval battle involving a Seychelles Coast Guard patrol boat and two groups of Somali pirate vessels . The encounter resulted in the freeing of twenty - seven hostages held by the pirates . Background . The " Topaz " , a Trinkat class patrol vessel of the Seychelles Coast Guard , was sent out on an anti - piracy patrol during late March as part of a new initiative by the Government of Seychelles to combat the steady increase in Somali piracy . The Battle . On 30 April , Seychelles Coast Guard patrol vessel " Topaz " approached a captured vessel where nine Somali pirates were holding six Seychellois and 21 Iranian sailors hostage , and were attempting to reach the Somali coast . A Somali translator aboard the " Topaz " sent audio calls urging the immediate release of the hostages , but the pirates ignored these demands , and continued towards the coast of Somalia even when warning shots were fired by the " Topaz " . Seychellois President James Michel gave the order to prevent the pirates from reaching the Somali coastline at all cost . The pirates opened fire on the " Topaz " with rocket - propelled grenades , which the " Topaz " evaded . The " Topaz " then opened fire on the dhow ' s engine with 12 . 7mm machine guns , firing a total of 10 , 000 rounds . The engine caught fire , forcing all of the pirates and hostages to jump overboard . The " Topaz " then rescued all of the hostages and arrested the Somali pirates . While en route back to the Seychelles , the " Topaz " was approached by Somali pirates in a naval trawler and two skiff s . The pirates opened fire on the " Topaz " , after which the " Topaz " returned fire . The pirate trawler caught fire and exploded after being hit , and a skiff was also sunk by the return fire , while the last skiff managed to escape . The " Topaz " then proceeded to Mahé . Aftermath . The operation was successfully completed with no casualties to either combatant , though one Iranian seaman , a hostage of the pirates , suffered a gunshot wound to the arm . The " Topaz " arrived in Port Victoria on 1 April 2010 , and was met by the families of hostages . The nine pirates being held aboard the " Topaz " were disembarked and taken into custody by the Seychelles Police .
