Before this aircraft were put into service under their manufacturers designation . History . United States Army Air Service 1919 to 1924 . During this period Type Designations used by the United States Army Air Service were allotted , using two or three letters , which were an abbreviation of the aircraft ' s purpose . Examples include GA for Ground Attack aircraft ; NO for Night Observation aircraft and NBS for Night Bombardment , Short Distance aircraft . Army aviation 1924 to 1962 . From 1924 to 1947 the Air Service , United States Army Air Corps , United States Army Air Forces and United States Air Force used a designation system based on mission category , with each model in a category numbered sequentially . In 1947 , the designation system was extensively overhauled , with several categories being dispensed with , and others renamed For instance , the Lockheed P - 80 " Shooting Star " ( Pursuit ) was redesignated as F - 80 ( Fighter ) , while the A - 26 medium bomber / attack aircraft was redesignated as the B - 26 , reusing the designation , the Martin B - 26 having retired in the meantime . US Navy system 1922 to 1962 . From 29 March 1922 to 18 September 1962 the United States Navy ( including United States Marine Corps and United States Coast Guard ) used a completely separate designation system , based on both " mission " and " manufacturer " . Tri - service system ( Air Force / Navy / Army ) 1962 to date . Since 18 September 1962 a joint system of " mission " - based designations has been used , with most of these restarting from 1 . Various previously - designated models from the pre - 1962 Army - Air Force system ( such as the F - 111 ) were not redesignated . All in - use USN / USMC aircraft from the pre - 1962 system were redesignated within the new system . An attempt was made to retain the original Type Sequence numbers for as many aircraft as possible . Thus , the F2H Banshee became the F - 2 , the F4H Phantom II became the F - 4 and the F8U Crusader became the F - 8 . In the US Air Force , these designations are commonly referred to as " Model Design Series " or MDS . In the US Navy , US Marine Corps and US Coast Guard , they are referred to as Type / Model / Series or T / M / S . External links . A comprehensive explanation can be found at Systems of Designation .
Geneva Agreements The Geneva Agreements of 1954 ( also , " Geneva Accords " ) arranged a settlement which brought about an end to the First Indochina war . The agreement was reached at the end of the Geneva Conference . A ceasefire was signed and France agreed to withdraw its troops from the region . French Indochina was split into three countries : Laos , Cambodia , and Vietnam . Vietnam was to be temporarily divided along the 17th Parallel until elections could be held to unite the country . These elections were never held ; following repeated refusals to hold nationwide elections by Ngo Dinh Diem and his declaration of leadership of a new state , South Vietnam , the Vietminh established a communist state in the North led by Ho Chi Minh . The US gave Diem considerable support in the form of financial aid ; due to the corruption evident in his regime , and the question of the depth of support for him in Vietnam , there was a certain amount of reluctance in doing so . Walter Bedell Smith , US representative at the Conference , read a statement on July 21 , 1954 , in which the US ' willingness to abide by the terms of the agreements was implied , and it promised to " refrain from the threat or use of force to disturb " them . Specifically , the statement seemed to promise not only US acquiescence to the mandated elections , but aid in executing them . Black propaganda operations by the CIA commenced within ten days of Smith ' s announcement ; the leaflets dropped on Hanoi were so convincing , that Vietminh denouncements of them were believed by even the Communist party faithful to be French trickery . Registration by Vietnamese wanting to go south to French territory increased threefold , and Vietminh currency halved in value , within days of the leaflet drop . Aspects of the Conference that have been the subject of controversy include whether it constituted a partition of Viet Nam , the transfer of responsibility for abiding by the agreement from the French representative for Viet Nam , Bảo Đại , to his largely self - appointed ( and US - backed ) successor Ngo Dinh Diem , and similarly , the extent of US responsibility for abiding by an agreement it did not sign .

Black Knight ( vehicle ) The Black Knight is a prototype Unmanned Ground Combat Vehicle designed by BAE Systems . Similar in size and appearance to a tank , it is armed with a turret - mounted 30mm gun and a coaxial machine gun . Although the armored vehicle can be controlled from a command center , the Black Knight does feature some autonomous functions in the turret and can also plan a route without hitting obstacles by itself . If necessary , the Black Knight can also be controlled by a Dismounted Control Device ( DCD ) . Information from the robot is relayed to and viewed by the Commander ' s Independent Viewer ( CIV ) , or to the DCD in the latter case . The vehicle is fitted with a Caterpillar diesel engine , developing 300 horsepower . The Black Knight uses many automotive components from the Bradley Infantry Fighting Vehicles to reduce costs and simplify maintenance . Its high maximum speed allows it to keep pace with main battle tanks . The Black Knight can be airlifted by the C - 130 transport aircraft . It is an early prototype , which demonstrates advanced robotic technologies . Vehicle is currently being tested and evaluated by the US Army .
