Mectron MAA - 1 Piranha The MAA - 1 Piranha ( Missil Ar - Ar - 1 , Air - Air Missile ) is an Air to air missile short - range category Sidewinder developed by CTA and Mectron at Brazil . Today is produced by the company Mectron - Engenharia , Indústria e Comércio Ltda . The project was funded by CTA of Air Ministry . Taking the unit value of $ 29 , 000 ( relatively low ) . Development began in 1976 and took more than two decades to complete . The Piranha was the first rocket designed and built in Latin America , And is used in fighter aircraft Brazilian Air Force ( ALX Super Tucano , AMX , F5BR and Mirage ) . The highlight is its use in project SIVAM , And the ALX Super Tucano use them to shoot down aircraft performance . Description . Brazil had a powerful arms industry in the ' 80s , which ended up being victimized by the stunning lack of political nous and even a certain inertia on the part of the military who made many companies break and many " heads " to move to countries where the development of technology military was taken seriously . So few companies survived , and even then with limited resources provided by government to study the development and production of weapons systems . One case is the Mectron that was allowed to finish the design of missile 3rd generation MAA - 1 Piranha , that performs similar to an AIM - 9L Sidewinder . Currently a much improved version of the Piranha , known as MAA - 1 B is in the final stages of development . This new version of the Piranha , falls as a missile 4th generation with excellent off boresigh , about 90 , and a range improved by 50 % as well as greater maneuverability achieved by changing the aerodynamics of the flight controls of the missile original . The MAA - 1B is capable of being appointed by the aircraft radar or HMD helmet . In April 2006 a golden opportunity arose and the Brazilian government undertook to finance part of the final development of the A - Darter in South Africa , a legitimate missile 5th generation . Brazilian companies and employees of the CTA ( Aerospace Technical Center ) will be involved in the development and manufacture of modern missile due to enter service in 2012 . Brazil must pay $ 52 million for this project which means a third of what would need to invest if we were starting from scratch .

Hirado Castle Description . Hirado Castle was built on top of a small , rounded mountainous peninsula facing Hirado Bay , surrounded on three sides by water . History . After Toyotomi Hideyoshi ’ s successful conquest of Kyūshū , local warlord Matsuura Shigenobu was granted Hirado County and the Iki Island to be his domain . In 1599 , Matsuura Shigenobu erected a castle called Hinotake - jō on the site of the present - day Hirado Castle . However , he burned the castle down himself in 1613 , as a gesture of loyalty towards Shōgun Tokugawa Ieyasu , having served in the losing Toyotomi side during the Battle of Sekigahara . In return , he was allowed to retain his position as " daimyō " of Hirado Domain under the Tokugawa bakufu . The present Hirado Castle was constructed in 1704 by order of the 4th " daimyō " of Hirado domain , Matsuura Takashi with the assistance of the Tokugawa shogunate . It was intended to be the keystone in coastal defense in the East China Sea region , as the government had by then implemented a policy of national seclusion against Western traders and missionaries . The design was partly influenced by the theories of the military strategist Yamaga Soko . The new construction was completed in 1718 , and the castle remained home to the Matsuura " daimyō " until the Meiji Restoration of 1868 . In 1871 , with the abolition of the han system , all structures of Hirado Castle were dismantled , with the exception of the northern gate , a " yagura " and the moat , and the grounds turned into Kameoka Park , with a Shinto shrine dedicated to the spirits of the successive generations of the Matsuura " daimyō " . The former residence of the final " daimyō " , Matsuura Akira was turned into a local history museum . In 1962 , four " yagura " , the ramparts , and the keep were reconstructed . The modern keep is a five - story steel - reinforced concrete structure , and contains a museum with artifacts of the Matsuura clan . One of these artifacts is a 93 - cm long Japanese sword ( " tachi " ) dating from the Asuka period , and is locally purported to have been carried by a general during the time of the legendary Empress Jingu ’ s invasion of Korea . An heirloom of the Matsuura clan , it is now owned by Matsuura Shrine and is a designated as a National Important Cultural Property ( ICP ) . In 2006 , Hirado Castle was listed as one of the 100 Fine Castles of Japan by the Japan Castle Foundation .

German submarine U - 958 German submarine " U - 958 " was a Type VIIC U - boat of the German " Kriegsmarine " during World War II . The U - boat was mainly used for training purposes until losses in other theatres prompted her relocation to operate from Norway and then against Soviet shipping in the Northern Baltic Sea . Built in Hamburg and completed in January 1943 , " U - 958 " was given to " Kapitänleutnant " Gerhard Groth , who remained with the boat for her whole operational lifespan . Earmarked for training duties in the Baltic , " U - 958 " was based in Kiel and helped prepare other boats for operational service , as well as training up potential commanders and officers and honing tactical and operational techniques . She fulfilled this duty for the whole of 1943 , before huge losses in the Battle of the Atlantic forced her to be deployed from Bergen , Norway . War patrols . Just four days after leaving Bergen on her first patrol designed to catch Allied submarines , minelayers and other craft operating off Norwegian waters , " U - 958 " was seen and attacked by Mosquito aircraft of 333 ( Norwegian ) Squadron of the Royal Air Force . Their rocket and strafing attacks killed one sailor and wounded two more , forcing the boat ' s early return to Bergen . A second patrol lasted twenty days amongst the fjords of Norway during June 1944 , but without success , failing to find a target . The boat returned to her training duties for a short time , but was still needed in an offensive capacity , and was returned to the Baltic in the summer of 1944 . Her third patrol began on 7 September 1944 , and she was tasked with operating in the Northern Baltic along the Finnish coastline . Not only was this area now being used by Soviet naval and civil shipping supplying the war zones in the Baltic states , but it also was used by Finnish vessels . During the patrol the rules of engagement with Finnish shipping changed , as Finland , once an ally of Germany , had agreed a separate peace with the Soviet Union , and was now fighting German troops on their soil in the Lapland War . Although this patrol was a failure , soon after her return on the 11 September " U - 958 " was sent back to the same area . This time she was to cover the withdrawal of German forces from Finland , as well as an attempt to exact some revenge on Finnish shipping . This allowed " U - 958 " her only victories , when she torpedoed the two small Finnish coastal sailing craft " Linnea " and " Piikio " on the 24 October . Following this fourth patrol , " U - 958 " was pulled back to Kiel and did not conduct any more offensive operations , limited by fuel and opportunity . In April 1945 , most of her crew were split up and sent to other boats to replace losses , and on the 3 May the skeleton crew which remained took her out into Kiel roadstead and scuttled her to prevent her falling into Allied hands . Two years later the wreck was pulled from the seabed and sold for scrap .
