Esquadrilha da Fumaça The Esquadrilha da Fumaça ( Smoke Squadron ) is the popular name of Esquadrão de Demonstração Aérea ( Air Demonstration Squadron EDA ) is a group of pilots and mechanics of the Brazilian Air Force making aerobatic demonstrations by the Brazil and the world . Its purpose according to EDA is to bring civil and military aeronautic means , to contribute to greater integration between the Air Force and other Armed Forces and mark the presence of FAB in events in Brazil and abroad . History . The Smoke Squadron made his first appearance in May 14 of 1952 using North American T - 6 Texan training aircraft , model airplane that was used until 1977 . For a brief period , 1968 to 1972 , there were been used jets CM - Aeropastiale 170 - 2 Fouga Magister , designated T - 24 in the FAB . Which proved inadequate to Brazilian conditions . The Smoke interrupted their presentations 1977 , but returned in December 8 of 1983 using aircraft Neiva Universal T - 25 , Soon replaced by Embraer EMB - 312 Tucano . Participates in the events aeronautical Dayton , in the U . S . , perhaps the most important in the category . The pilots of the squadron remain four years in operation and are then transferred to another unit .

Predicted impact point The predicted impact point ( PIP ) is the location that a ballistic projectile ( e . g . bomb , missile , bullet ) is expected to strike if fired . The PIP is almost always actively determined by a targeting computer , which then projects a PIP marker ( a " pipper " ) onto a Head - Up Display ( HUD ) . Modern HUDs are focused so the weapon operator will see the marker projected directly over the point of impact , regardless of the position of their eye . Modern combat aircraft are equipped to calculate the PIP for onboard weapons at any given time . Using the PIP marker , pilots can achieve good accuracy at ranges of up to several kilometers , whether the target is ground - based or airborne . Variables included in the calculation are aircraft velocity , target velocity , target elevation , distance to target , forces on the projectile ( drag , gravity ) , and others . Another example of devices that show the PIP are red dot sight s like the M68 Aimpoint . Such sights , Like on a HUD ' s , are collimated reflector sight s , so the dot always appears over the weapon ' s impact point , regardless of the shooter ' s eye position . Red dot sights do not use internal computers and must be manually zeroed for maximum accuracy .

Unofficially he shot down 32 German and Austro - Hungarian planes , although his official tally is only 20 because only planes crashed in Russian - held territory were counted . Russian military aviation tradition during World War I was different from that of its Western allies and rivals and the individual scores of pilots were considered to be of lesser value compared to their contribution to the overall war effort . On 31 March 1915 Alexander Kazakov successfully repeated the aerial ramming attack first attempted by Pyotr Nesterov , using a Morane - Saulnier G as his piloted projectile . For this bit of daring , he was awarded the Order of Saint Anne , first in the Fourth Class , then in the Third . He was appointed to command of 19th Corps Fighter Detachment in September 1915 . Here he had Nieuport 10 s and Nieuport 11 s to fly . Between 27 June and 21 December 1916 , he racked up four more victories to become an ace . Five months later , Kazakov resumed his winning streak with his sixth victory on 6 May 1917 , which was shared with Ernst Leman and Pavel Argeyev . By 25 May , with his eighth win , he switched to a Nieuport 17 , which he used henceforth . Between 1915 and 1917 he fought on the Russian front as well as in Romania and participated in the Brusilov Offensive as a commander of 1st Combat Air Group . In January 1918 , in the wake of the Russian Revolution , Kazakov resigned his Russian commission . Russian Civil War .

After the British withdrawal from Russia which left the Russian White Army in a desperate situation , Kazakov died in a plane crash during an air show on 1 August 1919 which was performed to boost the morale of the Russian anti - Bolshevik troops . Most witnesses of the incident , including British ace Ira Jones , thought Kazakov committed suicide . References . " Nieuport Aces of World War I . " Norman Franks . Osprey Publishing , 2000 .

Fairey Spearfish The Fairey Spearfish was a 1940s British torpedo bomber designed and built by Fairey Aviation for the Fleet Air Arm . It was one of the largest single - engine aircraft to ever operate from a British aircraft carrier . Design and development . The Spearfish was designed by Fairey Aviation to Admiralty Specification O . 5 / 43 . Having learned the lessons of the Barracuda , the Spearfish had a much more powerful engine and an integral ASV anti - submarine radar ( the external installation on the Barracuda caused problems with longitudinal stability ) . Problems with the Bristol Centaurus engine delayed the first flight until 5 July 1945 . Only four more aircraft were built , two at Fairey ' s Hayes factory and two at their Stockport plant , during 1945 / 47 . After the end of the war and with the proposal for a more advanced turboprop anti - submarine aircraft ( which became the Gannet ) , further work on the project was stopped and orders for 152 production aircraft cancelled . The Admiralty did not accept the Spearfish for operational use . One aircraft was used by the Royal Navy Carrier Trials Unit at Ford , Sussex , until mid 1952 and another was modified by Napier at Luton for research into methods of obtaining artificial ice accretion . The aircraft was said to have such heavy controls that in bad weather a pilot circling a carrier while waiting to land was forced to fly such a wide circuit that he could not keep the carrier in sight . In a follow - up to meet Specification 0 . 21 / 44 for a two - seat strike fighter , the Spearfish was re - designed to accommodate a twin - coupled Merlin engine and contra - rotating propellers . A variety of other engines were considered , and although a production order was placed for three examples in 1944 , the programme was eventually shelved , remaining as an unfulfilled paper project .
