Optronique secteur frontal The OSF ( Optronique secteur frontal ) is a long range video system developed for the French Dassault Rafale combat aircraft . With its narrow field , the visible waveband capability is truly valuable to identify targets in situations where visual contact is required by the rules of engagement . It allows target tracking , through IR ( IRST ) and visual sensors : As can be seen , the benefits are numerous in air - air confrontation :
Baha ad - Din ibn Shaddad Bahā ' ad - Dīn Yusuf ibn Rafi ibn Shaddād ( ; the honorific title " Bahā ' al - Dīn " means " splendour of the faith " ) ( 7 March 1145 – 8 November 1234 ) was a 12th - century Muslim jurist and scholar , a Kurdish historian of great note , notable for writing a biography of Saladin whom he knew well . Ibn Shaddād was born in Mosul on 10 Ramadan 539 AH ( 7 March 1145 CE ) , where he studied the Qur ' an , hadith , and Muslim law before moving to the Nizamiyya madrasa in Baghdad where he rapidly became " mu ' id " ( " assistant professor " ) . About 1173 , he returned to Mosul as " mudarris " ( " professor " ) . In 1188 , returning from Hajj , ibn Shaddād was summoned by Saladin who had read and been impressed by his writings . He was " permanently enrolled " in the service of Saladin , who appointed him " qadi al - ' askar " ( " judge of the army " ) . In this capacity , he was an eye witness at the Siege of Acre and the Battle of Arsuf and provided " a vivid chronicle of the Third Crusade " . Saladin and ibn Shaddād soon became close friends and the sultan appointed him to several high administrative and judicial offices . Ibn Shaddād remained an intimate and trusted friend of Saladin , " seldom absent for any length of time " , as well as one of his main advisers , for the rest of the sultan ' s life . After Saladin ' s death , ibn Shaddād was appointed " qadi " ( " judge " ) of Aleppo . He died in Aleppo on 14 Safar 632 AH ( 8 November 1234 ) , aged 89 years . Ibn Shaddād ' s best - known work is his biography of Saladin , which is " based for the most part on personal observation " and provides a complete portrait as " Muslims saw him " . Published in English as " The Rare and Excellent History of Saladin " , the Arab title ( " al - Nawādir al - Sultaniyya wa ' l - Maḥāsin al - Yūsufiyya " ) translates as " Sultany Anecdotes and Josephly Virtues " . The text has survived intact and is still in print . Ibn Shaddād also wrote several works on the practical application of Islamic law , " The Refuge of Judges from the Ambiguity of Judgements " , " The Proofs of Judgments " and " The Epitome " as well as a monograph entitled " The Virtues of the Jihad " . Much of the information known about Ibn Shaddād derives from Ibn Khallikan ' s contemporary " Biographical Dictionary " ( " Wafāyāt al - a ' yān " , literally " Obituaries of Eminent Men " ) . Ibn Shaddād was contemporary to the events he writes and it makes his history particularly valuable . Bohadin ' s account of " The Life of Saladin " was a well written , detailed , factual , and believable account of the period . The work " The Life of Saladin " was published by Schultens in 1732 in Leiden . It is still one of the most important sources for the Crusade of Richard I ( 1189 – 1192 ) .

M1C helmet The M1C helmet was a variant of the U . S . Army ' s popular and iconic M1 helmet . Developed in World War II to replace the M2 helmet , it was issued to paratrooper s . It was different from the M2 in various ways , most importantly its bails ( chinstrap hinges ) . The M2 had fixed , spot weld ed " D " bales so named for their shape . It was found that when sat on or dropped , these bails would snap off . The solution was the implementation of the swivel bail , which could move around and so was less susceptible to breaking . The M1C was issued mid - late war . Like the M2 , its most visible differences from the standard infantry M1 helmet was the liner . The liner of the M1C , like most paratrooper liners , had a set of " A yokes " or straps fixed to the side of the liner to enable the use of a leather chin cup to give support to the head and neck during jump s . Often , however , these modified liners could not be manufactured in time for jumps so they were modified by the soldiers themselves . Another difference of the M1C was the chinstraps ( This was seen on the M2 ) . The chinstraps found on the M2 and M1C both had a button snap on the end so as to be fastened to the liner . Despite the numerous differences between the M1C and the standard M1 helmet , the shell of the M1C is practically identical to standard swivel bail infantry helmets , making a concrete identification of a helmet as an M1C difficult . < br >
Bayern - Kaserne The Bayern - Kaserne ( literally " Bavaria - Kaserne " ) is a military facility in Munich , Germany , originally named General - Wever - Kaserne . The facility was constructed between 1936 and 1938 . After World War II it was renamed by the United States forces to Henry Kaserne in honor of Private Robert T . Henry . When it was transferred to the German Bundeswehr , it was renamed once more in honor of General Walther Wever on October 9 , 1969 . History .

The 76th Tank Bn was composed of A , B , C and D companies , and a Headquarters Co . Across the street ( Insgolstadteland Strasse ) was stationed the 503rd Airborne Infantry Regiment of the 11th Airborne Division . The battalion was equipped with M48 tanks and did its training in Grafenwehr and Vilseck trining areas . Since the battalion was Airborne , Nuebiberg was the LZ , with the DZ located just north of the barracks area ( near where the Allianz Arena is today - 2012 ) . The Battalion Commander was Lt . Col . Carlton Preer . The battalion was inactivated in 1958 , when the 11th Airborne was inactivated . The personnel and equipment were reassigned to the 24 th Infantry Dvision . When the American troops left the barracks , the Bundeswehr acquired them in 1969 . Until the 1990s they were used by the following units : Another former user was the Fachausbildungskompanie Munich ( FachAusbKp MCH ) , a company for professional training , which was stationed in the barracks until 1992 . In 1994 the Wehrbereichskommando VI / 1 . Gebirgsdivision ( WBK IV / 1 . GebDiv ) moved into the Bayern - Kaserne . The WBK IV / 1 . GebDiv was disposed after the unification of the 1 .

Yukon Field Force The Yukon Field Force was a unit of 203 officers and men from the Permanent Force of the Canadian Militia in formation from 1898 to 1900 . The men of the unit comprised infantry , artillery , and cavalry and were based at Fort Selkirk with a detachment at Dawson City to support the Canadian government and the North - West Mounted Police in maintaining law and order during the Klondike Gold Rush . With eight out of ten people in the heart of the Yukon being American , this posed a real threat to the security and sovereignty of Canada . History . With the discovery of gold in the Klondike in 1896 , the Canadian Government reinforced the North - West Mounted Police who were first sent into the Yukon in 1894 . Authorized on 21 March 1898 and commanded by Lieutenant Colonel Thomas Dixon Byron Evans of the Royal Canadian Dragoons , the force consisted of 5 Staff , 16 Royal Canadian Dragoons , 49 men of the Royal Canadian Artillery and 133 men of the Royal Regiment of Canadian Infantry armed with Lee - Enfield . 303 rifles , two Maxim gun s and two bronze seven - pounder cannons . The YFF travelled by rail across Canada to Vancouver , B . C . , then by steamer ship along the coast north to Wrangell , Alaska . Once there they transferred to a river ship to Glenora and then on to Telegraph Creek , B . C . , where the trek started . It was a long march but supplies were hauled overland by mule , packers and the soldiers themselves until they reached the south end of Teslin Lake . There they built scows and small boats and navigated the river to their destination of Fort Selkirk , Yukon . The entire unit was stationed in at Fort Selkirk for the duration along the Yukon River . A detachment of two officers and 50 other ranks with a Maxim gun were sent to Dawson City in October 1898 . Most of the duties were guarding gold shipments , ceremonial duties and some patrolling . The unit was recalled and dispersed in mid - June 1900 for there was a need for troops to serve in South Africa , for the Boer War was not yet over . Most of the arms and stores of the YFF , less the two Maxim machine guns , had been turned over to the NWMP upon their departure . The unit was replaced with the Non - Permanent Militia unit , the Dawson Rifles of Canada . This unit continued with similar duties from 1900 to 1905 when it was disbanded . Some YFF members took their release in 1900 staying in the Yukon to seek a mining career and served with the Dawson Rifles . At least half of the soldiers served again with the army during the Boer War and First World War . One soldier served during the Second World War reaching the rank of lieutenant - colonel but retired in 1943 . References .

MAC - 11 The Ingram MAC - 11 ( Military Armament Corporation Model 11 ) is a subcompact machine pistol developed by American gun designer Gordon Ingram at the Military Armament Corporation ( MAC ) during the 1970s . The weapon is a sub - compact version of the Model 10 ( MAC - 10 ) , and is chambered to fire the smaller . 380 ACP round . This weapon is sometimes confused with the Sylvia & Wayne Daniels M - 11 / 9 or the Vulcan M - 11 - 9 , both of which are later variants of the MAC chambered for 9 mm Luger Parabellum cartridge . Sound suppressor . A specific suppressor was developed for the MAC - 11 , which used wipes as baffles , instead of the reflex baffles that Mitchell Werbell III created for the MAC - 10 . Though wipes are less durable than reflex baffles , they had the advantage of proving quieter for the MAC - 11 . Operation . Like the larger M - 10 , the M - 11 has open sights with the rear pinhole sight welded to the receiver . These sights are for use with the folding stock , as using them without the stock is nearly useless because of the initial jump of the weapon due to its heavy , open - bolt design . The M - 11A1 also has two safety features which are also found on the Model 10A1 . The charging handle rotates to the 90 degrees to lock the bolt in the forward position thus preventing the weapon from being cocked . The second safety is a slider which is pushed forward to lock the trigger , which in turn pins the bolt to the rear ( cocked ) position . This prevents the weapon from discharging even when dropped , which is a typical problem with the open - bolt design . Performance . The rate of fire of the M - 11A1 is one of the biggest complaints on the firearm . Listed as approximately 1200 rpm ( rounds per minute ) , though in reality , it is closer to 1600 rpm , the MAC - 11 is capable of emptying the entire 32 - round magazine in less than two seconds , which many users view as a setback . Rate of Fire will also vary depending on which grain of ammo is used . Acceptance . The M - 11 is the least - common version in the MAC family of firearms . This is mostly due to the . 380 ACP round , which has a muzzle velocity of approximately and of energy , and is widely considered to have insufficient stopping power . At the MAC - 11 ' s high cyclic rate , extreme trigger discipline is required to discharge short bursts , which are required for combat expediency . Without proper training , the natural tendency of the inexperienced shooter is to hold down the trigger , discharging the entire magazine in little more than a second , often with poor accuracy due to recoil . Manufacturers . MAC - type pistols were first manufactured by the Military Armament Corporation , and later by RPB Inc . , Sylvia / Wayne Daniel Inc . , Cobray , Jersey Arms , Leinad , MasterPiece Arms , and Vulcan .
