Battle of the Port of Carthage The Battle of the Port of Carthage was a naval battle of the Third Punic War fought in 147 BC between the Carthaginians and the Roman Republic . In the summer of 147 BC , during the Siege of Carthage , the Roman fleet , under the command of Lucius Hostilius Mancinus kept a close watch on the city from the sea . His warships were reinforced that same year by the forces of Scipio Aemilianus . The Carthaginians managed to find an escape route to the sea that had not been effectively blockaded by the Roman navy and put their fleet of 50 trireme s and smaller numbers of other vessels to sea to confront the invading fleet . They met the Roman fleet outside the Port of Carthage , and met with initial success in repulsing the Roman attacks to their ships , inflicting heavy casualties on them . As the battle progressed , the Carthaginians decided to return to port . During this operation , the smaller ships of the Carthaginian fleet blockaded the entrance to the port , forcing the Roman vessels very close into shallower waters . Many of the smaller Carthaginian vessels were sunk , but at dawn , a majority had made it successfully back to port . This small victory for the Carthaginian navy was in no way enough to break the blockade by the Roman navy .
BCT Network The Army will continue the development and fielding of an incremental ground tactical network capability to all Army brigade combat team s . This network is a layered system of interconnected computers and software , radios , and sensors within the Brigade Combat Team ( BCT ) . The BCT network is essential to enable Unified Battle Command and will be delivered to the Army ' s Brigade Combat Teams in increasing capability increments . The first increment is currently finishing SDD developmental and operational testing and will be delivered to Infantry Brigade Combat Teams in the form of Network Integration Kits ( B - kits ) with E - IBCT . The soldier at every echelon , from Brigade to Squad , will be connected to the proper sensor data and communication relays to ensure proper battlespace situational awareness . The Network Integration Kit . The Network Integration Kit ( NIK ) is a suite of equipment capable of being installed on many vehicles including HMMWV ' s and MRAP ' s . It provides the Network connectivity and battle command software to integrate and fuse sensor data into the common operational picture ( COP ) displayed on the Force XXI Battle Command Battalion / Brigade and Below ( FBCB2 ) . The Network Integration Kit consists of an integrated computer system ( ICS ) that hosts the Battle Command software and the Systems of Systems Common Operating Environment ( SOSCOE ) software , along with the JTRS GMR radio to provide the interface to the sensors and unmanned systems , as well as voice and data communications with other vehicles and soldiers . Soldiers will be able to communicate with the Battalion Tactical Operation Center ( TOC ) , by sending reports on enemy sighting , activity and location utilizing the NIK via the Network allowing for split - time tactical decisions .

Similar in performance to the Russian 9M123 Khrizantema , it is meant to compete with other next generation missiles . The MSS - 1 . 2 was designed to deal with current and future armored threats such as Russian T - 90 , American M - 1 Abrams and British Challenger 2 tanks , but can also be used against low - altitude aircraft such as helicopters and unmanned aerial vehicle s . It has successfully breached more than six meters of concrete in tests carried out by the Brazilian army . Description . The anti - tank missile MSS 1 . 2 is in production , waiting for placement in the Brazilian Army . Although the requirement of EB was for a missile with a 2 , 000 meter range , during recent tests the missile remained " attitude of target " , ( i . e . , it was guided and impacted on the target at ranges ranging from 3 , 500 to 4 , 000 meters ) " We put a conservative in the serial range of 3000m . But it goes much further , and accurately , while maintaining full control . "
