The Kriegsakademie was subordinated to the " Inspektion der Militärbildungs - Anstalten " , a department of the Ministry of War , that was responsible for all training institutions of the Bavarian Army . Like the " Kriegsschule " ( war school ) and the cadet corps of the Bavarian army , it was located southwesterly of the corner " Blutenburgstraße " and " Pappenheimstraße " , nearby to the parade - ground on the " Marsfeld " and the later infantry barracks " Marsfeldkaserne " , which were completed in 1888 .

Manius Manilius Manius Manilius ( fl . 148 BC ) was a Roman Republic an orator and distinguished jurist who also had a long military career .

Manilius was proconsul of Spain in 155 BC when he led an unsuccessful campaign against the Lusitani . He became consul in 149 BC with a Marcius Censorinus . He unsuccessfully besieged Carthage at the beginning the Third Punic War , and was replaced by Calpurnius Piso in 149 after suffering a heavy defeat at Nepheris , a Carthaginian stronghold south of the city . Manilius as a jurist .

His works were still read in the classical period , and he was cited by such authors as Varro , Cicero , and Brutus .

AD Scout The AD Scout ( also known as the Sparrow ) was designed by Harris Booth of the British Admiralty ' s Air Department as a fighter aircraft to defend Britain from Zeppelin bombers during World War I . Design and development . The Scout was a decidedly unconventional aircraft - a biplane with a fuselage pod mounted on the " upper " wing . A twin - rudder tail was attached by four booms , and it was provided with an extremely narrow - track undercarriage . The primary armament was intended to be a 2 - pounder recoilless Davis Gun , but this was never fitted . Four prototypes were ordered in 1915 and two each were built by Hewlett & Blondeau and the Blackburn Aeroplane & Motor Company . Operational history . Trials flown by pilots of the Royal Naval Air Service at Chingford proved the aircraft to be seriously overweight , fragile , sluggish , and difficult to handle , even on the ground . The project was abandoned and all four prototypes scrapped .
Richard Hawkins Admiral Sir Richard Hawkins ( or Hawkyns ) ( c . 1562 – 17 April 1622 ) was a 17th - century English seaman , explorer and Elizabethan " Sea Dog " , and the son of Admiral Sir John Hawkins . He was from his earlier days familiar with ships and the sea , and in 1582 he accompanied his uncle , William Hawkins , to the West Indies . In 1585 he was captain of a galliot in Drake ' s expedition to the Spanish main , in 1588 he commanded a queen ' s ship against the Armada , and in 1590 he served with his father ' s expedition at the coast of Portugal . In 1593 he purchased the discovery ship " Dainty " , a vessel originally built for his father and used by him in his expeditions , and sailed for the West Indies , the Spanish Main and the South Seas . It seems clear that his project was to prey on the oversea possessions of Spanish crown . Hawkins , however , in an account of the voyage written thirty years afterwards , maintained , and by that time perhaps had really persuaded himself , that his expedition was undertaken purely for the purpose of geographical discovery . After visiting the coast of Brazil , the " Dainty " passed through the Straits of Magellan , and in due course reached Valparaíso . Having plundered the town , Hawkins pushed north , and in June 1594 , a year after leaving Plymouth , he arrived in the Bay of San Mateo , at the mouth of the Esmeraldas river , nowadays Ecuador , at the position . Here the " Dainty " was attacked by two Spanish ships . Hawkins was hopelessly outmatched , but " Dainty " ' s crew defended her with gallantry . At last , when he himself had been severely wounded , 27 of his men killed , and the " Dainty " was nearly sinking , he surrendered on 1 July 1594 on the promise of a safe - conduct out of the country for himself and his crew . Through no fault of the Spanish commander , this promise was not kept . In 1597 Hawkins was sent to Spain , and imprisoned first at Seville and subsequently at Madrid . He was released in 1602 , and , returning to England , was knighted in 1603 . In 1604 he became Member of Parliament for Plymouth and Vice - Admiral of Devon , a post which , as the coast was swarming with pirates , was no sinecure . In 1620 to 1621 he was vice - admiral , under Sir Robert Mansell of the fleet sent into the Mediterranean to reduce the Algerian corsairs . He died in London on 17 April 1622 . Hawkins wrote the memories of his trip under the title " Voiage into the South Sea " ( 1622 ) , which became the most famous Elizabethan adventure , re - published by the Hakluyt Society and reworked in Charles Kingsley ' s " Westward Ho ! " ( 1855 ) . He depicts the Spaniards in the Americas in a positive way , judging them as " temperate " and " gentle " .

Tank plinking Tank plinking is a term that was given by pilots during the Gulf War to the practice of using guided munitions to destroy artillery , armored personnel carriers , tanks , and other targets . As the war progressed , the term began to encompass all forms of destroying a target ( such as a T - 72 tank ) with an overly capable weapon ( such as an A - 10 Thunderbolt II ' s GAU - 8 Avenger cannon , at a cyclic rate of 3 , 900 rounds - per - minute ) . This term was discouraged by the military . Background . General Norman Schwarzkopf was looking for a plan to incapacitate 50 % of the Iraqi army before any ground invasion could begin . Planning was performed including high intensity air strikes with General Dynamics F - 111 , A - 6 Intruder , F - 15E Strike Eagle , F / A - 18 Hornet , AV - 8 Harrier , A - 10 Thunderbolt II , and F - 16 Falcon crews . This culminated in December 1990 , with " Operation Night Camel " in which air crews of the F - 111 evaluated the ability of aircraft to use guided munitions with the LANTIRN and Pave Tack target designation systems from medium altitude . This is a deviation from standard military air engagement due to the prevalence of the surface - to - air missile ; most aviators would prefer to engage a target from either a very high altitude , or a very low altitude , and certainly with low observability aircraft . However , the Iraqi defenses proved to be very inadequate . The winning combination for the eventual campaign was either a pair or quartet of F - 111F aircraft loaded with four GBU - 12 500 - lb , laser - guided bombs . Bombs were designated for both entrenched , hard targets , as well as softer targets ( e . g . armoured personnel carrier s ) .
