449th Fighter Interceptor Squadron The 449th Fighter Interceptor Squadron is an inactive United States Air Force unit . Its last assignment was with 11th Air Division stationed at Ladd Air Force Base , Alaska . It was inactivated on 25 August 1960 . History . Organized in China and fought in the CBI , 1943 – 1945 . Reactivated as part of Alaskan Air Command in 1947 and equipped with P - 61 Black Widow Night Fighters , used as interceptors against Soviet Aircraft intruding into North American airspace . Former Heisman Trophy - winner Tom Harmon was a member of the unit during their stint in the CBI . Reequipped with F - 82 Twin Mustang s in 1948 , receiving additional aircraft from Far East Air Forces after model withdrawn from the Korean War . Modified to the F - 82H model with the addition of cold weather equipment and additional de - icers . Many of these fighters operated with Strategic Air Command where they served as escorts for the massive Convair B - 36 Peacemaker bomber during long flights over the Arctic . The 449th Fighter - Interceptor Squadron was the last USAF unit equipped with the F - 82 , retiring the model in 1953 when a lack of parts made it impossible to keep the aging airframes flying . The retirement of the F - 82 marked the end of front - line use of USAF propeller driven fighter aircraft . Many were ultimately scrapped in Alaska . Reassigned to Ladd AFB in 1949 and reequipped with jet F - 94 Starfire s in 1952 . Maintained air defense of Alaska until being inactivated in 1960 along with turnover of Ladd AFB to the United States Army as part of Fort Wainwright .
Type 2 12 cm Mortar The Type 2 12 cm mortar is a smooth bore , muzzle - loading type mortar which , except for the firing mechanism , closely resembles the conventional Stokes - Brandt 81 mm mortar . The bipod and cradle of the two types of mortar s are identical , except for size and the fact that the bipod legs can be removed as a unit from the cradle of the 120 mm mortar . The large , ribbed base plate has only one socket for the spherical projection on the barrel . A Type 2 120 mm mortar was reported captured at Leyte . Design . The mortar examined was manufactured at Osaka Arsenal in 1943 . This mortar is described by the Japanese as having an over - all length of 4 feet , 11 . 9 inches , and a bore length of 4 feet , 5 . 6 inches . The total weight of the weapon is reported to be 548 1 / 2 pounds , of which 176 pounds represent the weight of the tube , 99 pounds the bipod , and 207 . 9 pounds the base plate . The weapon allegedly can be fired by dropping the shell down the tube to strike a fixed firing pin , or it can be trigger fired . Elevation of the piece , accomplished by adjustment of the bipod legs , ranges from 800 to 1 , 422 mils ; traverse , at a 45 - degree elevation , is 180 mils and at 70 degrees 210 mils . Maximum range of the piece is reported to be 4 , 900 yards . The base plate is very heavy and is fitted with four carrying handles . The sight bracket fits the standard mortar sight . The barrel is heavily reinforced at the muzzle and has two raised ribs midway of the barrel , between which the barrel clamping collar is held . The firing mechanism is similar to that used on the Type 99 , 81 mm short mortar . After the weapon has been loaded , a plunger , which projects upward from the mortar breech , is struck with a mallet or similar instrument , thus camming out the firing pin and firing the mortar . A safety lock is fitted on this firing plunger . Ammunition . The ammunition is of the conventional streamlined , fin - stabilized type . It uses the ignition cartridge and powder - increment type of propellant . The round uses the standard type 100 mortar fuze and weighs 26 . 4 pounds . Two rounds of ammunition are packed in a wooden box , lined with asphalt impregnated paper . The ignition cartridges are assembled into the rounds as packed , the fuzes are packed in tear - top cans , and the doughnut - type increments are packed in tar - paper bags .
USRC Active ( 1816 ) " Active " was a revenue cutter in commission in the United States Revenue Cutter Service from 1816 to 1825 . She was the third Revenue Cutter service ship to bear the name . The Revenue Cutter Service purchased " Active " at Baltimore , Maryland , in August 1816 . Although she worked in New York for a short time in 1817 , " Active " served on the Chesapeake Bay for most of her career . During her first year of service , another USRC " Active " , chartered in 1812 , was in commission , meaning that in 1816 - 1817 the Revenue Cutter Service had two ships named " Active " in commission at the same time . In the early nineteenth century , new laws in the United States prohibited the slave trade between the United States and foreign countries and required the enforcement of Neutrality Acts from 1815 to 1823 during troubles with European nations , creating new missions for the Revenue Cutter Service . " Active " was part of the services efforts to suppress the slave trade and piracy . " Active " was blown aground in 1823 . By then long in need of repairs and replacement , she was decommissioned sometime in 1825 .

She was assigned to serve the U . S . Pacific Fleet with her protective anti - submarine nets . Unfortunately , while performing this service , she ran aground in Alaskan waters and was declared a total loss . Built in Washington . " Ailanthus " ( YN - 57 ) was laid down on 17 November 1942 at Everett , Washington , by the Everett Pacific Co . ; launched on 20 May 1943 ; sponsored by Miss Billie Jean McNatt ; and placed in commission at Seattle , Washington , on 2 December 1943 , Lt . Donald B . Howard , USNR , in command . World War II service . The net tender completed fitting out and , during the second half of December , conducted shakedown training . On the last day of 1943 , she reported for duty in the 13th Naval District . On 20 January 1944 , she was reclassified a net laying ship and redesignated " AN - 38 " . Early in February , " Ailanthus " moved north to Pleasant Island , Alaska , where she arrived on 4 February . Reassigned that same day to Service Squadron 6 , U . S . Pacific Fleet , she began to carry out net laying duties . Ran aground and sunk . However , her career proved very brief . On 26 February 1944 , she ran hard aground and suffered extensive damage . While still stranded , " Ailanthus " was reassigned to the newly constituted 17th Naval District ( the Alaskan portion of the old 13th Naval District to which she had originally been assigned ) . Finally , she was declared a total loss , and her name was struck from the Navy List on 9 June 1944 . Ailanthus specific duty in the Aleutian Islands was to deliver perforated steel plating ( Marsden matting ) to a Navy Seabee contingent building an airfield on the westernmost island of Attu . After having offloaded her cargo the ship was caught in a violent winter storm , slipped her anchorage and was driven aground .
Squid ( weapon ) Squid was a British World War II ship - mounted anti - submarine weapon . It consisted of a three - barrelled mortar which launched depth charge s . It replaced the Hedgehog system , and was in turn replaced by the Limbo system . Literally ordered directly from the drawing board in 1942 , under the auspices of the Directorate of Miscellaneous Weapons Development , this weapon was rushed into service in May 1943 onboard HMS " Ambuscade " . The first production unit was installed on HMS " Hadleigh Castle " , it went on to be installed on 70 frigates and corvettes during the Second World War . The first successful use was by HMS " Loch Killin " on 31 July 1944 , when she sank " U333 " ; the system was credited with sinking 17 submarines in 50 attacks . By 1959 , 195 Squid installations had been produced . This weapon was a three - barrel mortar with the mortars mounted in series but off - bore from each other in order to scatter the projectiles . The barrels were mounted in a frame that could be rotated through 90 degrees for loading . The projectiles weighed with a minol charge . On some vessels , the Squid installations were at the stern – the bombs were fired over the length of the ship and dropping into the sea slightly ahead of it . Sink rate was 43 . 5 ft / s ( 13 . 3 m / s ) and a clockwork time fuse was used to determine the detonation depth ; all three projectiles had to be set to the same depth ; this could be continuously updated right up to the moment of launch to take into account the movements of the target . The maximum depth was . The weapons were automatically fired from the sonar range recorder at the proper moment . The pattern formed a triangle about 40 yards ( 37 m ) on a side at a distance of 275 yards ( 250 m ) ahead of the ship . Most Squid installations utilised two sets of mortars . All six bombs were fired in salvo so they formed opposing triangular spreads . The salvos were set to explode above and below the target , the resulting pressure wave crushing the hull of the submarine . Postwar trials found Squid was nine times more effective than conventional depth charges . Despite its proven effectiveness , some officers , notably Captain Kenneth Adams , RCN , opposed fitting Squid to escorts because it meant sacrificing guns , which would make ships unsuitable for fleet actions . In April 1977 , the Type 61 frigate " Salisbury " became the last ship to fire Squid in Royal Navy service .
Venus - class frigate The " Venus " - class frigates were three 36 - gun sailing frigate s of the fifth rate produced for the Royal Navy . They were designed in 1756 by Sir Thomas Slade , and were enlarged from his design for the 32 - gun " Southampton " - class frigates , which had been approved four months earlier . The 36 - gun frigates , of which this was to be the only British design in the era of the 12 - pounder frigate , carried the same battery of twenty - six 12 - pounders as the 32 - gun predecessors ; the only difference lay in the secondary armament on the quarter deck , which was here doubled to eight 6 - pounders . Slade ' s 36 - gun design was approved on 13 July 1756 , on which date two ships were approved to be built by contract to these plans . A third ship was ordered about two weeks later , to be built in a royal dockyard .

Combat support In the United States Army , the term combat support refers to units that provide fire support and operational assistance to combat elements . Combat support units provide specialized support functions to combat units in the areas of chemical warfare , combat engineering , intelligence , security , and communications . Combat support should not be confused with combat service support , which are units which primarily provide logistical support by providing supply , maintenance , transportation , health services , and other services required by the soldiers of combat units to continue their missions in combat . Expressed another way , Combat Support units are focused on providing operational support to combat units , while Combat Service Support units are focused on providing logistical support to combat units . Actual combat units are collectively referred to as combat arms units ; hence , all army units fall into the category of either combat arms , combat support , or combat service support . Within the U . S . Army , the combat support branches are the :
Focke - Wulf Fw 58 The Focke - Wulf Fw 58 " Weihe " ( " Harrier " ) was a German aircraft , built to fill a request of the " Luftwaffe " for a multi - role aircraft to be used as advanced trainer for pilots , gunners and radio operators . Design and development . The Fw 58 is a low - wing monoplane with two piston engines mounted in nacelles on the wing leading edges . The crew sat in an enclosed canopy . Aft of the flight deck , the fuselage is open to form a moveable machine gun station . The tailwheel undercarriage is retractable . Operational history . The Fw 58 was widely used for training " Luftwaffe " personnel . It was also used as VIP transport , ambulance , feeder airliner , photo reconnaissance , and weather research aircraft . It was built under license in Bulgaria and Brazil . It was also operated by several countries such as the Netherlands , Hungary , Romania , Croatia and Turkey . Survivors . The only Fw 58 on display is at Museu Aeroespacial in Rio de Janeiro , Brazil . Brazil used this airplane mainly for maritime patrols and the example on display was one of the 25 Fw 58B - 2 units license - built in Brazil by Fábrica de Galeão circa 1941 . A Fw58 C - 2 is currently under restoration at the Norwegian Aviation Museum in Bodø - http : / / www . luftfart . museum . no / Utstillinger / Focke % 20Wulf . htm A FW 58 crashed in 1943 in the Lac du Bourget ( France ) after a low - flying training pass over the lake went wrong , Two of the Four airmen were rescued by local fishermen ( The local German command even freed four " terrorists " - local people jailed for suspected Resistance activities - as a goodwill gesture towards the local population ) . The wreck is currently accessible to advanced divers with " tech diving " equipment as it lies at a depth of over 110 M , Video footage of the wreck was shown on various European TV channels . Due to the dark and cold water it is fairly well peresrved after 70 years , though the canvas over tube frame light structure is gradually deteriorating . Plans were made about rising the wreck but local divers are strongly against it because of the ethical aspects ( War grave ) and risks of badly damaging the wreck with inadequate rising techniques ( cutting the aircraft in parts with ROV ' s before raising it . )
F - 19 F - 19 is a designation for a hypothetical United States fighter aircraft that has never been officially acknowledged , and has engendered much speculation that it might refer to a type of aircraft whose existence is still classified . History . Since the unification of the numbering system in 1962 , U . S . fighters have been designated by consecutive numbers , beginning with the F - 1 Fury . " F - 13 " was never assigned to a fighter due to superstition , though the designation had previously been used for a reconnaissance version of the B - 29 . After the F / A - 18 Hornet , the next announced aircraft was the F - 20 Tigershark . The USAF proposed the F - 19 designation for the fighter , but Northrop requested the " F - 20 " instead . The USAF finally approved the F - 20 designation in 1982 . There have been a number of theories put forth to explain this omission , but none have ever been confirmed . The most prevalent theory in the 1980s was that " F - 19 " was the designation of the stealth fighter whose development was an open secret in the aerospace community . When the actual aircraft was publicly revealed in 1988 , it was called the F - 117 Nighthawk . There seems to be no evidence that " F - 19 " was ever used to designate the Nighthawk , although the National Museum of the United States Air Force website does include the entry " Lockheed F - 19 CSIRS ( see F - 117 ) " as of 2011 . Another theory suggests that F - 19 was the designation applied to the Have Blue technology demonstrator which led to the development of the F - 117 .
