After the First world war, France had the largest tank Park in the world. And the main part of it were the fighting vehicles Renault FT17— without a doubt the best tanks of the last war, which allowed them not to hurry with the creation and adoption of new models of armored vehicles. However, in 1926, he developed the first post-war concept of development of armored forces. The armament of the infantry was supposed to have three types of tanks: light, medium (or “combat”—weighing up to 20 tonnes) and heavy.
FRENCH INFANTRY TANK
At the end 1940-x of years in several countries of Europe, a dilapidated Second world war, gradually began to recreate the automotive industry. On the streets there are inexpensive micro cars purely personal use: trehalase German “Messerschmitt” with a body that resembled the fuselage of an airplane of the same name, quadruple “Zundapp-Janus” with doors in the front and rear body panels, three-wheeled double “Heinkel kabine”, quadruple “BMW-600” and Italian is a four – seater FIAT 500 and the double four “Isetta” with a narrowed rear track.
Glider interceptor firm “Blom und Voss” BV 40. January 1943 started mass raids of British bombers compounds on German cities. Armada of bombers flying in close formation, known as the “combat box”, providing mutual support by their fire side 12.7 mm machine guns. German fighters struggled to overcome the barriers of the escort fighters and defensive fire of the bombers before they reach the ability to attack the target. Losses were high and the efficiency low. In this regard, the task of countering allied bombers became for Germany a priority. Her decision was attended by many design teams that have submitted their, sometimes very original projects. Perhaps the most unexpected proposal was submitted by the firm “Blom und Voss” glider interceptor V 40. Let us try to retrace the thinking of its creators.
Supersonic tactical fighter-bomber of the US air force Republic F-105 Thunderchief. Supersonic tactical fighter-bomber custom development F-105 Thunderchief (eng. the Thunderer) company Republic became the first aircraft of this type—all combat vehicle of similar purpose were merely modifications of the classic fighters. In addition, the Thunderchief was a single of the largest single-engine fighter-bombers in the world ever built such aircraft. Its development took more than seven years, which took five million man-hours and a billion dollars.
By the beginning of the First world war, all naval power was quite easy to divide the main with a significant naval power with diverse and numerous ships of all classes, and secondary, having only a purely local fleets, including, at best, a few dozens of small units and only a few large warships. The former, of course, include the UK, USA, Germany, Russia and France; with some doubt they can add more and Italy. In a wide range of second hits most of the rest of Europe and most developed countries in Latin America. Well, the third category of countries, the Navy of which can be seen only through a magnifying glass, treated other countries in the world, owners is that a pair or two very small gunboats (sometimes proudly referred to as “cruisers”) and other boats, military value has not possessed.
In the mid-1980s, the famous “jeep”, many years in service with the us army, had to be substituted. Then the military picked the car М1025/М1026 (HMMWV – Hammer “Hummer”) produced by AM General firm, recognized as a “highly mobile multipurpose wheeled vehicle”. It turned out to be more functional and powerful, larger in its dimensions, but left only four-wheel drive General purpose machine.
The first meeting of these armored vehicles occurred in rebel Spain in 1936 to September this year, arrived at 41 German tank Pz-1. After a month on the boat “Komsomolets” was delivered 50 tanks T-26. In the first combat quarters revealed a considerable advantage of the Soviet machines. 45 mm gun 20K any range punched through Pz-1, which was the only spark 7.92-mm machine guns, dangerous for our machines – the T-26 was also more powerful.
The end of the 80-ies of the XIX century was for the Russian shipbuilding a turning point. The Navy finally became “steel”; changed the materials, machinery, artillery, ammunition, tactics. Gradually began to change the approach to shipbuilding programs: separate “model” ships have passed into history, because the creation of each of the “unique” require a lot of money, and the fleet strength of such loners has increased slightly.
The interaction between aviation and ground forces—one of the conditions for the successful conduct of modern warfare. The form of this interaction is determined by the accepted military doctrine. Local wars of the 1960s years has dealt a serious blow to the supporters of nuclear missile strategy, is now considered front-line aircraft as means of delivery of nuclear weapons. Vietnam and the Arab-Israeli war revealed the need to enhance survivability and effectiveness of tactical aircraft with conventional means of destruction under intense fire counter enemy air defenses. Partly these problems were solved by modifications and rearmament of the existing fleet of tactical guided missiles “air—surface”.
These small maneuverable vessels are used for long-term diving operations. With their Board examined the bottom waters is inspected the underwater part being afloat or stranded vessels. In addition, they are adapted for underwater excavation, blasting and rescue operations.
