Tamasese and his German allies faced a rival faction headed by popular Samoan chief Mata ' afa Iosefo . Tensions heightened with the United States after a German shelling of Mata ' afa ' s rebel villages also resulted in destruction of American owned property in 1887 . One battle at Vailele in September 1888 , following German bombardment of his rebel villages , resulted in Mata ' afa ' s warriors destroying an invading German contingent and plundering their plantations .

Transporter erector launcher A transporter erector launcher ( TEL ) is a vehicle with an integrated prime mover that can carry , elevate to firing position and launch one or more missile s . Such vehicles exist for both surface - to - air missile s and surface - to - surface missile s . Early such missiles were launched from fixed sites and had to be loaded onto trucks for transport , making them more vulnerable to attack since once they were spotted by the enemy they couldn ' t easily be relocated , and if they were it often took hours or even days to prepare them for launch once they reached their new site . A transporter erector launcher and radar ( TELAR ) is the same as a TEL but also incorporates part or all of the radar system necessary for firing the missile ( s ) . Such vehicles have the capability of being autonomous , greatly enhancing their effectiveness . With this type of system each vehicle can fight regardless of the state or presence of support vehicles . The TEL or TELAR may have a rotating turntable that it can use to aim the missiles . The vehicle may have to turn to aim the missiles or they may fire straight up . Conversely , a transporter launcher and radar ( TLAR ) is the same as a TELAR without the erector capability , because the missile in question is transported in the launch - ready position . An example is the 9K330 Tor , which mounts a Vertical Launching System - style block of SAMs . Usually a number of TELs and TELARs are linked to one Command post vehicle ( CP or CPV ) . They may utilise target information from " Target acquisition , designation and guidance radar " ( TADAGR ) or , simply , " TAR " . The Patriot missile system uses the abbreviation MEL ( " Mobile Erector Launchers " ) as a towed launch vehicle .
