AGM - 84H / K SLAM - ER The AGM - 84H / K SLAM - ER ( Standoff Land Attack Missile Expanded Response ) is a precision - guided , air - launched cruise missile produced by Boeing Defense , Space & Security for the United States Armed Forces and their allies . Developed from the AGM - 84E SLAM ( Standoff Land Attack Missile ) , the SLAM - ER is capable of attacking land and sea targets at medium - to - long - ranges ( 155 nautical miles / 250 km maximum ) . The SLAM - ER relies on the Global Positioning System ( GPS ) and infrared imaging for its navigation and control , and it can strike both moving and stationary targets . The SLAM - ER , can be remotely - controlled while in flight , and it can be redirected to another target after launch if the original target has already been destroyed , or is no longer considered to be dangerous . The SLAM - ER is a very accurate weapon , with the best circular error probable ( CEP ) of any missile used by the U . S . Navy or U . S . Marine Corps . The SLAM - ER obtained initial operating capability in June 2000 . A total of three SLAM - ER missiles were fired by the U . S . Navy during the Iraq War , and the missile was also used during Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan . The General Electric Company provides an Automatic Target Recognition Unit ( ATRU ) for the SLAM - ER that processes prelaunch and postlaunch targeting data , allows high speed video comparison , and enables the SLAM - ER to be used in a true " fire and forget " manner . It also includes a " man - in - the - loop " mode , where the pilot or weapons system office can designate the point of impact precisely , even if the target has no distinguishing infrared signature . It can be launched and controlled by a variety of aircraft including the F / A - 18 Hornet , F / A - 18 Super Hornet , and P - 3C Orion , as well as by the U . S . Air Force F - 15E Strike Eagle . Before the retirement of the S - 3B Viking , it was also able to launch and control the SLAM - ER , and it is anticipated that the U . S . Navy ' s new land - based patrol plane , the Boeing P - 8 Poseidon will carry the SLAM - ER as well . The South Korean Air Force ' s version of the F - 15E Strike Eagle , the F - 15K Slam Eagle , has been capable of launching and controlling the SLAM - ER since 2006 in test exercises .

Operations . After completion at Danzig in November 1915 , " U - 73 " was commissioned by Kapitänleutnant ( Commander ) Gustav Sieß . She joined the Kiel School , where she remained until February 1916 , conducting trials and crew training .

It seems certain " U - 73 " , still commanded by Sieß , laid the mine by which the hospital ship HMHS " Britannic " was sunk , one hour after it was laid . It is possible the hospital ship " Braemaer Castle " was also sunk by one of her mines . " U - 73 " suffered from constant machinery trouble in common with her class .

M58 MICLIC The M58 Mine Clearing Line Charge ( MICLIC ) is a rocket projected explosive line charge which provides a " close - in " breach ing capability for maneuver forces of the United States Army and Marine Corps . It is effective against conventionally fuze d land mine s and , when detonated , it provides a lane 8 meters by 100 meters . The MICLIC system consists of an M353 3½ ton or M200A1 2½ ton trailer ( or M200 tracked trailer ) chassis , a launcher assembly , an M147 firing kit , an M58A3 line charge and a 5 - inch MK22 Mod 4 rocket . The line charge is 350 feet long and contains 5 pounds per linear foot of C - 4 explosive . In the event a MICLIC fails to detonate normally , it can be manually activated by time - delay fuses every few feet along the length of it . Due to the inherent dangers of entering a live minefield to manually arm the backup fuses on a charge that could still detonate at any moment , possibly while under enemy fire as well , the act is jokingly referred to as the " Medal of Honor run " .

At his death in December 1799 , Washington was a three - star lieutenant - general . Although Congress created a higher rank of general of the armies in March 1799 , President John Adams did not submit Washington ' s name for confirmation and so the rank was not awarded in Washington ' s lifetime . Two hundred years later , as part of the United States Bicentennial celebrations , Congress passed a joint resolution ( sponsored by Representative Mario Biaggi ) on September 28 , 1976 , calling for Washington to be posthumously promoted to the highest possible rank above all other ranks in the United States Army forever . President Gerald Ford signed the order on October 12 , with an effective date of July 4 , 1976 .
