In the summer of 1963, the Ministers of defense of the United States and Germany – Robert McNamara and William Hassel had signed a bilateral agreement on joint development of a new main battle tank (MBT) for the armed forces of both countries. The program was called the MBT (Main Battle Tank). It was assumed that in this way it is possible to create a single tank of NATO. First and foremost, this project was caused by the appearance in the Soviet Union T-64 tanks, superior in many characteristics of the machines available then, armed with the NATO countries.
GERMAN GRANDPA “ABRAMS” AND “LEOPARD – 2”
In the halls of the Central exhibition NTTM, dedicated to the XXVI Congress of the CPSU, it is possible to see many original designs and arrangements, created by young scientists, innovators various sectors of the economy. Is on display and very unusual exhibit — a fragment of a brick house, over which a fortified small drum with a wound on its shaft with tape. This flywheel model of lift is designed for lowering people from a height of 100-150 m in the case of fires or other natural disasters, when the regular elevators stopped because of power-cut. The device can be useful when landing fire landing of a helicopter, for example, on forest fires, when landing is impossible because of the smoke.
Many imported models of the industrial housing calls does not stop the flight of thought of an Amateur designer, but on the contrary. To install the house call that will surprise and delight guests – a worthy reason to continue playing. The obvious advantage the home worker before the foreign industry is the knowledge of local cultural traditions, so when I decided to develop an idea, character, ringing the bell, it didn’t take much time.
The German engineers before the Second world war began the development of guided air missiles “air — air”. Brought to flying condition samples and technical documentation “wonder weapons” were killed under the ruins of factories, prepared for their serial production, after the RAID of allied bombers in early 1945.
In the UK, “astroganga” in three types: A, b and C nearly five dozen descendants overseas “Holland”, think about two things. First, they wanted to leave quite humiliating dependence on former colonies (recall that Vickers would continue to pay each submarine built at its shipyards, the owner of the rights American “electric boat company”), and secondly, the Admiralty wanted to have not only deeply defensive options coastal submarines, but the submarine is able to attack the enemy far from their bases.
The creation of remote electronic devices control various actuators were promising direction in the radio even during my “pioneer” childhood in the 1980-ies. Then, under the guidance of mentors, we enthusiastically gathered such equipment using discrete components. She usually had a range of 5 — 6 m and it barely fits in the box size 300х300х150 mm. If it was possible to assemble at least a fortnight instrument remote control model boats or aircraft with a transmission range of teams at 20 — 30 m, it was considered from us (10 to 12-year-olds) with great success.
Snow scooter we recommend that you do, will give the opportunity not only to descend from the snowy mountains, but to engage in the slalom. To build it is not too difficult. Well, of course, if you manage to use the weld, but in a pinch you can do without it, replacing the weld bolt.
“From work saw burn until white!” — wrote Vladimir Mayakovsky in his poem “Whom to be?” Meanwhile, heat the cutting tool in the first place means that he is dull. In this case, the joiner, as of old, takes padpilot (triangular file — in modern terminology) and manually sharpening the teeth of a handsaw. Much hard work and unproductive work! But maybe, and this operation can be mechanized? There are also sharpening machines for milling cutters, disks of circular saws… However, here’s a review on the machine, developed by ninth-graders of high school № 28 of Ust-Kamenogorsk city under the leadership of teacher A. A. Boytsov: “bench grinder will find wide application not only in school workshops, but in the joiner shops of the construction companies and carpentry teams on any construction site. The machine is easy to manufacture and allows you to sharpen the various woodworking tools — hand saws, the blade semi-circular and chain saws”.
