CS 30. The CS 30 is a Canadian sailboat, that was designed by Tony Castro and first built in 1984. The design is out of production.

Production
The boat was built by Canadian Sailcraft in Canada. It became their most successful model, with 90 built the first year and 500 completed over the whole production run from 1984-1990.

Design

The CS 30 is a small recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fibreglass, with wood trim. It has a masthead sloop rig, an internally-mounted spade-type rudder, reverse transom and a fixed fin keel. It displaces  and carries  of ballast.

The boat has a draft of  with the standard keel,  with the optional shoal draft keel and  with the optional wing keel.

The boat is fitted with a Volvo diesel engine of . The fuel tank holds  and the fresh water tank has a capacity of .

The winged keel version of the boat has a PHRF racing average handicap of 156 with a high of 185 and low of 144. It has a hull speed of .

Operational history

In a review Michael McGoldrick wrote, "The CS 30 was introduced in the mid 1980s, and it was an immediate hit with sailors who had outgrown their 26 and 27 footers. It is a newer design which features a fairly long waterline, a wide transom, and double spreaders. And while it doesn't quite have an enclosed aft cabin, it comes very close with a large aft double berth ... Approximately five hundred CS 30s were built during the latter half of the 1980s. Unlike the large windows illustrated on line drawings, many of these appear to have been built with 8 smaller opening ports (similar to what is found on the CS 36 Traditional)."

Air Barons. The Air Barons were  an aerobatics team of the United States Navy, which was active  from 1958 to 1971. The team was initially equipped with Grumman F9F-6 Cougars. The Air Barons were the aerobatics team of the Naval Air Reserve and thus the second aerobatic team of the US Navy along with the Blue Angels.

History 
In contrast to the Blue Angels, which also flew the A-4 at the same time, the Air Barons always flew with an additional tank under each wing, while the Blue Angels used external transfer tanks only for transfer flights and carried out the actual flight demonstrations completely without external loads. One of the 6 A-4 also had an air to air refueling unit  at the centerlinepylon. In contrast to the full-service military pilots of the Blue Angels, which only operate aerobatics during their classification at the Blue Angels, the pilots of the Air Barons were active as pilots of the Naval Air Reserve only as part-time military pilots. The Air Barons aerobatic team flew 66 official flight demonstrations during its existence.

İstif-class frigate. The Istif-class frigates are a group of eight multirole frigates currently being constructed for the Turkish Naval Forces. Developed under the MILGEM national warship program as the I-class frigate, the Istanbul class is an enlarged version of the  anti-submarine corvette, with enhanced endurance and MIDLAS Vertical Launching System (VLS) for multi-role capability. On 19 January 2017, Turkish Navy held a ceremonial steel cut for the lead ship TCG Istanbul (F 515). Istanbul was laid down on 3 July 2017 and launched on 23 January 2021.

History and background

The Istif class has its origins in the Turkish MILGEM project for developing national warships and warship building industry. The program calls for the construction of a warship family in three classes, where all vessels would be designed with high degree of commonality. First product of the project emerged as Ada-class anti-submarine/patrol corvette. The Istanbul class, originally known as the TF-100 class under MILGEM-G designation, belongs to the second development phase, where structure of the Ada class vessel is extended to host multi-role capabilities.

Design
The Istif class is an enlarged variant of the Ada class and will feature a slightly larger hull for improved endurance. In addition to retaining the guns, self protection and anti-submarine warfare systems of the Ada class, the Istif class will have twice the number of anti-ship missiles and will be equipped with the indigenous MDAS vertical launching system,   capable of firing HISAR and other missiles, along with other systems for improved multi-role combat capabilities. The experience and technological know-how gained with the Istanbul class will play an important role in determining the design characteristics and the development process of the TF-2000-class destroyers, as well as the selection of the systems and equipment which will be used on these significantly larger and more capable warships.

The first ship of the class, TCG Istanbul, was laid down on 19 January 2017. The fifth and largest modern warship to be both indigenously designed and built in Turkey, it is claimed that at least 75% of its systems will be of indigenous manufacture. Its steel cutting ceremony was attended by Turkish Defence Minister Fikri Işık and senior military officers, including Admiral Bülent Bostanoğlu, Commander of the Turkish Naval Forces.

Construction took six years and the vessel was commissioned into service on 19 January 2024.

Export
It was stated in Aselsan 2023 Annual report that İstif class frigate was exported to an unnamed Middle Eastern country.

Tucker gun turret. The Tucker gun turret was a fast-traversing electrically powered gun turret widely described as having been mounted on World War II bombers and on some ground vehicles and small naval vessels like US Navy PT boats.  American industrialist Preston Tucker first developed the turret for the experimental Tucker armored car in 1938.

Steve Lehto in his biography of Tucker, asserts that it is a misconception that Tucker's turret was widely used on US bombers during the war. He states that different manufacturers were each assigned contracts to develop different turrets for different planes, and that Tucker's firm was to build turrets for the Douglas B-18 Bolo.  In the end no Tucker turrets equipped any bombers.

When Tucker was under investigation by the Security and Exchange Commission, a half-hour film entitled Tucker: The Man and his Car was prepared and shown to the Commission members.  Lehto and Jay Leno described the film's narrator "gushing" over Tucker and noted: "A short section on his wartime efforts to create the Tucker Combat Car introduced the Tucker Turret and may have been the source of the myth that his turrets were widely used during the war."

A Hollywood biopic of Tucker covered Tucker's production of the turret, prompting reviewers to characterize the turret design as "incredibly ergonomic, effective and convenient".

Burin (engraving). A burin ( ) is a steel cutting tool used in engraving, from the French burin (cold chisel). Its older English name and synonym is graver.

Etymology 
The term burin refers to a tool used by engravers that has a thin, pointed blade and is used to etch or cut. The first known use of the word dates back to France in the mid-1600s, when the term was coined for the tool we know today.

Design 

The burin consists of a rounded handle shaped like a mushroom, and a tempered steel shaft coming from the handle at an angle and ending in a very sharp cutting face, creating a "V"-shaped groove in a printing plate of soft metal, classically copper.

The most ubiquitous types have a square or lozenge face, but there are many others. A tint burin has a square face with teeth, to create many fine, closely spaced lines. Stipple techniques can be done with many flicks of a conventional burin, and this was the earliest technique used. Later wheeled tools called roulettes allowed the easy creation of many fine dots. A flat burin has a rectangular face, and is used for cutting away large portions of material at a time.

Uses 

An engraving burin is used predominantly by intaglio engravers, but also by relief printmakers in making wood engravings. Usually an engraver will have several tools, of different sizes and shapes of cutting face.

The burin is held at approximately 30° to the surface. The index and middle fingers guide the shaft, while the handle is cradled in the palm. The 16th-century Dutch engraver Hendrik Goltzius found his unusually malformed hand was well suited for cradling and guiding a burin.

The burin was and is also used by goldsmiths to engrave inscriptions or designs on metal, which preceded its use in printmaking.
