Additionally , three expansive , uncontrolled tactical ranges are available . Each of these tactical ranges spans several hundred square kilometers , and each contains two airfield mockups plus many diverse arrays of targets , including structures , vehicle convoys , aircraft , and armor .

Seti ( commander ) Seti or Suti was an ancient Egyptian soldier during the late 18th dynasty ( 14th century BCE ) , the commander of the army , later mentioned as vizier on monuments of his son , Pharaoh Ramesses I . Seti , the forefather of the 19th dynasty was from a military family in the Delta . According to one theory he is identical with a royal envoy mentioned in the Amarna letters as " Shuta . " His brother Khaemwaset is probably identical with the Royal Fanbearer and Chief of the Bowmen of Kush Khaemwaset , who is mentioned on a statue dating to Tutankhamen ' s reign . Khaemwaset ' s wife Taemwadjsy was mistress of the Harem of Amun and is probably the same Taemwadjsy who was sister to Huy , Viceroy of Kush . So Seti was the member of a very prominent family , and after his son Paramessu ( Ramesses I ) was chosen by Pharaoh Horemheb as his successor , Seti ' s descendants went on to form one of the most powerful dynasties of Egypt . A fragment of a votive stela of his is now in the Oriental Institute in Chicago . This fragment is 115 cm wide and 65 – 70 cm high , its upper part depicts a sitting male and female figure , but only the feet remained intact . Its lower part shows three persons in clothing influenced by Amarna - style , flanked by Khaemwaset and Ramesses , who is named Ramose here . The stela ' s inscription is : “ an offering to the " ka " of Osiris - Suti , Commander of the Troops of the Lord of the Two Lands ” .
T17 Armored Car The T17 and the T17E1 were two American armored car designs produced during the Second World War . Neither saw service with frontline US forces but the latter was supplied , via the United Kingdom , to British and Commonwealth forces during the war and received the service name Staghound . A number of countries used the Staghound after the war , with some of the vehicles continuing to serve into the 1980s . History . In July 1941 , the US Army Ordnance issued specifications for a medium armored car alongside a specification for heavy armored car ( which resulted in the T18 Boarhound ) . Ford Motor Company built a six wheels , all driven ( 6 x 6 ) prototype which was designated T17 and Chevrolet a ( four wheels , all driven ( 4 x 4 ) model designated T17E1 . At the same time , the British Purchasing Commission was also looking for medium and heavy armored cars for use in North Africa . Had the U . S . adopted this , it would have been called the M6 . T17 . The T17 was armed with a 37 mm gun in a rotating turret , a coaxial machine gun and a bow machine gun . Power was from two Hercules JXD engines . The British gave the name Deerhound to the T17 . Production started in October 1942 . However , the US military eventually decided to adopt the lighter M8 Greyhound vehicle instead . T17 production was stopped and the 250 units produced were disarmed and given to the United States Army Military Police Corps for use in the States . The T17 was never used by the British . T17E1 . The British allocated the name Staghound to the T17E series . Production started in October 1942 . Unlike the T17 when the US military decided to adopt the lighter M8 Greyhound vehicle , T17E1 production continued for the United Kingdom . Approximately 4 , 000 Staghounds were produced in total . The Staghound was an innovative design that incorporated some advanced features . It had two rear - facing 6 - cylinder engines with automatic transmissions ( with 4 forward and 1 reverse gears ) feeding through a transfer case to drive both axles . Either two - or four - wheel drive could be selected . Either engine could be shut down while in motion and taken out of the drive train . Additionally , a power steering pump was incorporated that could be switched on or off manually from the driver ' s instrument panel depending on steering conditions . Steering and suspension components were directly attached to the hull as the structure was rigid enough to dispense with the need for a separate chassis . The Staghound entered service too late for use in the North African Campaign where its combination of armor , range and main armament would have been an advantage in a light forces reconnaissance role . As a result , it first saw operational service in Italy , where many units found its large physical size too restrictive in the narrow roads and streets of Europe . It saw most service at squadron and regimental headquarter level ; an armoured car regiment having three Staghounds with the Regimental HQ and three with each HQ of the four squadrons in the regiment .
