Bristol S . S . A . The Bristol S . S . A . , ( Single - Seat Armoured ) , was an armoured scout built at Bristol in 1914 to fulfill a French government order . Design and development . At the request of the French government , Henri Coanda designed a single - seat armoured biplane . The forward fuselage was built as a monocoque shell built up from sheet steel , colloquially known as ' The Bath ' , at the Filton works . The armoured shell enclosed the engine , fuel tank , oil tank and cockpit , with the pilot ' s seat being formed from the shaped rear bulkhead . The Clerget 7Z was fully cowled with sheet steel and drove a two - bladed propeller which had a large sheet steel spinner , perforated to allow cooling air to the rotary engine , and an internal sheet steel cone preventing bullet entry through the cooling holes . Staggered biplane main - planes were mounted as far forward as possible to ensure that the centre of pressure maintained the correct position relative to the centre of gravity . The lower main - planes were attached to a framework , leaving a gap between wing root and fuselage . The undercarriage consists of two wheels mounted on struts , with long skids which extended rearwards removing the need for a tail - skid . A feature of the undercarriage requested by the French customer was castering main - wheels allowing cross - wind landings . Attached to the rear end of the armoured tub was a slender rear fuselage which ended with a large balanced rudder , tailplane and elevator . Operational history . The sole prototype , given the serial ' No . 219 ' , was first flown at Larkhill on 8 May 1914 with a temporary aluminium spinner due to vibration with the steel assembly . The S . S . A . Also flew at Farnborough but was damaged in a heavy landing . After repairs the S . S . A . Was flown again on 25 June 1914 at Filton , by Busteed , but broke an undercarriage bracing wire on landing . Despite the damage and without being repaired , the S . S . A . was delivered to the French customer at the Douai works of Breguet for repair on 3 July 1914 . When the Douai factory was forced to be evacuated to Villacoublay by the German invasion of France at the start of the First World War , the S . S . A . was not taken along , and no further records of the S . S . A . exists .

" Statendam " was launched on 9 July 1914 and after her christening work began on fitting her for service . Before this could be completed , the First World War broke out and work stopped for one year . In 1915 the British government requisitioned the " Statendam " for use as a troopship . The ship was at first given to the Cunard Line to manage because of the sinking of the , and the ship was renamed " Justicia " ( Latin for justice ) because of their traditional ship suffix - ia .

Krupp 7 . 5 cm Model 1903 The Krupp 7 . 5 cm Model 1903 was a field gun used by a number of European armies in both World War I and World War II . The Model 1903 was a " stock gun " from Krupp that could be supplied to customers on short notice with minor alterations to suit the customers needs . Romania acquired 636 of these guns and used them with a more sophisticated sighing device ( than the one offered by the Germans ) made locally , known as the Ghenea - Korodi sight . By number of guns , this was largest import of a single type of cannon ever made by Romania . It was the mainstay of the Romanian field artillery in World War I , equipping all artillery regiments of the Romanian infantry divisions . The number of these guns in Romanian service had decreased to 312 by 1926 . The Romanians used them until 1942 , although by this time they had become obsolete . The Model 1903 was also bought by Denmark and the Netherlands and used in World War II . The Model 1903 also formed the basis for the Type 38 75 mm Field Gun used by Japan . In Danish service it was known as the 03 L / 30 and doesn ' t appear to have been modified in any significant way before World War II . The Dutch bought some 204 of the slightly earlier Kanone M . 02 / 03 and purchased a production - license as well . 120 appear to have been manufactured in the Netherlands , where it was known as the 7 - veld . During the 1920s , the Dutch rebuilt their guns to increase their elevation . At least 16 were modified for motorized traction , presumably with steel wheels and pneumatic tires , for service with the Light Division . Gander and Chamberlain claim there were three almost identical versions , the M 02 / 04 vd , OM 04 and NM 10 , but this has not been confirmed . The Germans designated these guns as the 7 . 5 cm Feldkanone 243 ( h ) after the Battle of the Netherlands . Danish guns were known in German service as the 7 . 5 cm Feldkanone 240 ( d ) .

Throughout its mission , Search Bloc faced many obstacles such as a spy within the group , allegations of collaboration with the anti - Escobar vigilante groups such as Los Pepes , which would have included vigilantism within Search Bloc pertaining to suspicious deaths of Escobar ' s subordinates . Escobar was killed on December 2 , 1993 in a shootout with members of Search Bloc . After dismantling the Medellin Cartel , the Search Bloc was transferred to Cali to find and shut down the structure of the Cali Cartel .

The mission of the new Search Bloc was to take apart the Norte del Valle cartel and arrest its leader , Diego León Montoya Sánchez . In 2007 the Colombian government again ordered the creation of a new Search Bloc against the Black Eagles and classified this organization as a gang of former paramilitaries .
