CTA Convertiplano The Convertiplano is a cancelled Brazilian convertiplane project . It is based on the earlier Focke - Achgelis Fa 269 . Henrich Focke revived the design in the early 1950s on behalf of Brazil ' s Centro Técnico Aeroespacial ( CTA ) , at the time the air force ' s technical center , who had contracted him to develop a convertiplane . The Convertiplano was built using the fuselage and wings of a Supermarine Spitfire Mk 15 , which was believed to be one delivered to Argentina as a sales example . Britain refused to supply the Armstrong Siddeley Double Mamba engine originally selected and the design was altered to accept a mid - mounted Wright Duplex Cyclone radial , as used in the Lockheed Constellation , instead . This required a redesign of the transmission due to the increased weight and vibration . Some 40 workers and US $ 8 million were devoted to the project , and more than 300 takeoffs were achieved . The aircraft never entered service .

Yazid ibn ' Abdallah al - Hulwani Yazid ibn ' Abdallah ibn Dinar al - Hulwani ( also called al - Turki ) ( ) was the military governor ( " wālī al - jaysh " ) of Egypt for the Abbasid dynasty from 856 to 867 . He was the first Turk to govern Egypt . Career . Yazid rose to prominence as a lieutenant of the Turkish commander Itakh , and he served for a time as the chief of police ( " ṣāḥib al - shurṭa " ) of Samarra as the latter ' s deputy . His career appears to have survived Itakh ' s fall from power in 849 , and in 856 he was selected to govern Egypt on behalf of the Abbasid prince al - Muntasir , who had been assigned the province as part of the caliph al - Mutawakkil ' s succession arrangements . Yazid ' s tenure as governor was characterized by a lack of stability in the country . In Upper Egypt , rebellious Arab tribes had effectively seized control of the area around Aswan . In the north , Yazid was concerned with keeping dissent followers of ' Ali in check . Several ' Alawis were arrested and deported to Samarra , and the central government sent him instructions to severely limit the freedoms ' Alids and their supporters in the province . In 866 a revolt in the region of Alexandria was begun by one Jabir ibn al - Walid and enjoyed the support of the local Arabs , Christians and " mawālī " . Soon the rebels had spread across the Delta region and defeated the Turkish garrison stationed at Fustat . As a result of Yazid ' s failure to suppress the rebellion , he was recalled from his post by the central government in 867 . Part of the reason for Yazid ' s failure was that his powers as governor were limited . He had been given responsibility for Fustat and the Nile districts , but Alexandria and Barqa had been removed from the jurisdiction of the Egyptian government and were separately administered at the time . In addition , in accordance with the normal practice of the era , Yazid had control over the military and administration of the province , but not its fiscal affairs ; these were delegated to a separate director of finance ( " ' āmil " ) . From 861 on this latter post was occupied by Ahmad ibn al - Mudabbir , whose heavy taxes likely exacerbated the feelings of discontent among the populace . Yazid was replaced as governor by Muzahim ibn Khaqan , who had been dispatched to the province with reinforcements to put down Jabir ' s rebellion .

Anti - submarine warfare carrier An anti - submarine warfare carrier ( ASW carrier ) is a type of small aircraft carrier whose primary role is to hunt and destroy submarine s . This type of ship came into existence during the Cold War as a development of the escort carrier s used in the ASW role in the North Atlantic during World War II . Role . After World War II , the main naval threat to most Western nations was confrontation with the Soviet Union . The Soviets ended the war with a small navy and took the route of asymmetric confrontation against Western surface ship superiority by investing heavily in submarines both for attack and later fielding submarine - launched missiles . Several nations who purchased British and US surplus light carriers were most easily able to accommodate slow - moving , less expensive , and easy - to - land anti - submarine aircraft from the 1960s forward , such as the S - 2 Tracker , which flew from the decks of US , Canadian , Australian , Dutch , Argentine , and Brazilian carriers , or Alizé , which flew from French and Indian ships , allowing these ships to still remain useful especially in the framework of NATO even as newer fighter and strike aircraft were becoming too heavy for the equipment designed for WWII aircraft . Improvement in long - range shore - based patrol and conventional ship - based ASW helicopter capability combined with the increasing difficulty maintaining surplus WWII carriers led to most of these ships being retired or docked by smaller nations from the 1970s to the mid - 1980s . This trend in ASW force draw - down only accelerated with the massive reduction in the operational Soviet / Russian submarine fleet , which rarely went to sea in large numbers in the 1990s . Ships that could be called dedicated ASW carriers are now only found with the Japanese navy , which operates helicopters and no fixed - wing carrier - based aircraft of any kind . Even the United States Navy , the last nation to regularly operate a dedicated fixed - wing carrier - based ASW aircraft , the S - 3 Viking , on its mixed - role super carriers had already removed most ASW equipment in the 1990s from this aircraft and has now removed this type from service as of January 2009 without replacement . Interestingly , the Argentine Navy , currently without much hope of a replacement CATOBAR carrier of its own , still trains several times a year landing S - 2 Turbo Trackers aboard the Brazilian carrier " São Paulo " . Much easier to operate from small decks than fixed - wing aircraft were ASW helicopters , which flew from the decks of nearly all allied conventional carriers to this day and most LPH or STOVL carriers operated by the Soviet , Spanish , Italian , Japanese , British , and Thai navies . List of ASW carriers . Aircraft carriers and helicopter carriers that had primary ASW duties from the mid - 1960s onward .

Curtiss F7C Seahawk The Curtiss F7C Seahawk was a carrier - capable biplane fighter aircraft of the United States Navy Marine Corps in the late 1920s and early 1930s . Design and development . Curtiss ' Model 43 was their first aircraft designed expressly for the Navy , rather than a modified Army type .

The engine was a Pratt & Whitney R - 1340 - B Wasp radial . Entirely fabric - covered , the top wing was framed with spruce , while the fuselage was built from a combination of aluminum and steel tubing , sufficiently strong to serve as a dive bomber as well as a fighter . Operational history . The prototype XF7C - 1 first flew on 28 February 1927 . After some modification demanded by the Navy ( such as the wing sweepback ) , 16 production aircraft F7C - 1 Seahawks were built , and entered service in the USMC ' s VF - 5M at Quantico . In 1930 VF - 9M organized the Marine ' s first aerobatic stunt team , " The Red Devils " , with F7Cs featuring red painted noses . They continued in service until 1933 .
