| gyrojet lancejet: Future Weapons Kevin Dockery, 2007-12-04 On the battlefield, a soldier's best friends are his gun and his gear—because his life depends on them. But what will it take to fight and survive on the battlefields of tomorrow? What will those combat arenas consist of, and where will they be? And what will our nation's fighting men and women carry with them into battle? Future Weapons is a compendium of the weapons of war that may accompany our soldiers in the near and far future, as well as an insightful look at the soldier, sailor, and airman of today and tomorrow. All manner of military hardware is covered, as well as information about cutting-edge technology that will become standard in weapons to come, the possibility of robotic soldiers, vehicles, protective armor, and the prospects of fighting a war in both space and cyberspace. |

| gyrojet lancejet: Perfecționări în tehnica omuciderii Golea Daniela Georgiana, Radu Andreea Florina, Lucian Ștefan Cozma, 2020-07-22 Recent (august 2020) Editura Militară a publicat o lucrare cel puțin inedită: „Perfecționări în tehnica omuciderii. Îmbunătățirea armamentelor de foc portative și muniției eferente” (vol.1). Această carte este rodul muncii unui mic colectiv de autori format din persoane cu pregătire pluridisciplinară: Andreea Florina Radu, actualmente în cadrul Ministerului Afacerilor Interne, dar cu o vastă experiență profesională în domeniul politicii și relațiilor externe; Daniela Georgiana Golea, cu pregătirea de bază în domeniul economiei și a managementului, actualmente doctorand în cadrul Academiei Naționale de Informații, desfășurând activitate de cercetare în domeniul managementului securității naționale; Cosmin Vasile Țenu, inginer mecanic ca pregătire de bază, dar și master în securitate și apărare (Universitatea Națională de Apărare, București) și absolvent al Colegiului Național de Apărare din București, cu pregătire în domeniul conducerii politice a forțelor armate; în fine, echipa aceasta a fost completată cu Lucian Ștefan Cozma, persoană policalificată și posedând o variată experiență, jurist (licențiat în București), fizician (Măgurele) cu două specializări, fost pilot/parașutist sportiv. Abordând problema omuciderii, mai mult din perspectivă tehnică decât juridică, autorii sus-menționați au prezentat în lucrarea lor o serie de posibile (și prognozate) evoluții tehnologice ale armamentelor de foc și muniției acestora, pentru viitorul apropiat și mediu. Astfel, cercetătorii menționați mai devreme au intuit dezvoltarea în viitorul apropiat a muniției autopropulsate de calibru relativ mic, prezentând numeroase argumente științifice în acest sens, precum și exemple concrete de realizare a unor astfel de muniții. Totodată, ei au făcut și un scurt parcurs istoric al evoluției tehnologice specifice armelor de foc sau/și muniției acestora, prezentând cititorului maniera în care s-a produs această evoluție și cerințele care au impus-o. În final, căutând să preconizeze maniera în care ar putea evolua tehnologia armamentelor de foc într-un viitor previzibil. Lucrarea este bogat ilustrată și prezintă o densitate mare de date și informații, ceea ce induce nevoia de a lectura atent, fără grabă. În ciuda acestei dificultăți de lecturare, cartea respectivă este accesibilă publicului larg prin felul în care este organizată, ca și prin conținutul său divers și prezentat de o manieră cât mai inteligibilă. Acest prim volum nu face decât să ne stârnească surpriza și curiozitatea, mai ales că armamentele prezentate sunt în cea mai mare parte din cazuri, atipice, originale. Următoarele două volume (preconizate) ar urma să ne prezinte tehnologii cu totul noi destinate armamentelor: bazate pe utilizarea energiei electrice sau/și electromagnetice, energiei sonice, energiei undelor de șoc dirijate etc. De asemenea, este așteptată prezentarea armamentelor hibride și a celor neconvenționale dar făcând parte din categoria non-NBC (nuclear/biologic/chimic). Așteptăm cu mare interes următoarele două volume și-i invităm pe toți cei interesați de tehnică militară să caute volumul recent publicat de Editura Militară. GOLEA DANIELA GEORGIANA |

| gyrojet lancejet: SOG John L. Plaster, 2019-01-01 John Plaster’s riveting account of his covert activities as a member of a special operations team during the Vietnam War is “a true insider’s account, this eye-opening report will leave readers feeling as if they’ve been given a hot scoop on a highly classified project” (Publishers Weekly). Code-named the Studies and Observations Group, SOG was the most secret elite US military unit to serve in the Vietnam War—so secret its very existence was denied by the government. Composed entirely of volunteers from such ace fighting units as the Army Green Berets, Air Force Air Commandos, and Navy SEALs, SOG took on the most dangerous covert assignments, in the deadliest and most forbidding theaters of operation. In SOG, Major John L. Plaster, a three-tour SOG veteran, shares the gripping exploits of these true American warriors in a minute-by-minute, heartbeat-by-heartbeat account of the group’s stunning operations behind enemy lines—penetrating heavily defended North Vietnamese military facilities, holding off mass enemy attacks, launching daring missions to rescue downed US pilots. Some of the most extraordinary true stories of honor and heroism in the history of the US military, from sabotage to espionage to hand-to-hand combat, Plaster’s account is “a detailed history of this little-known aspect of the Vietnam War…a worthy act of historical rescue from an unjustified, willed oblivion” (The New York Times). |
| gyrojet lancejet: The Bazooka Gordon L. Rottman, 2012-06-20 Most belligerents entering World War II armed their infantry with bulky and ineffectual anti-tank rifles as their primary means of combating tanks. US planners realized that what infantrymen needed was a relatively lightweight, man-portable anti-tank weapon that was simple to operate, accurate, and capable of knocking out the average tank at a reasonable range, while also being effective against fortified buildings, pillboxes, and personnel in the open. The bazooka combined a revolutionary new anti-tank rifle-grenade warhead, a much-modified British anti-aircraft rocket motor, and a cobbled-together launcher tube and electrical firing system; its first test-firing astounded observers, and it was immediately adopted by the US armed forces. Featuring specially drawn colour artwork, this engaging study tells the story of the bazooka, which set the standard for future light anti-tank weapons and their ammunition, and was a key influence on anti-tank tactics and techniques in the post-war era. |

| gyrojet lancejet: The Best Caliber Wars James M Volo, 2019-05 Guns can be very effective tools, but they are each of limited utility. There is no one weapon that is perfect for every purpose. Private persons may own a number of guns that fulfill a variety of functions. Ballistics is important for soldiers, law enforcement, sportsmen, and anyone who seeks to protect their life, their home, their family, or their workplace. If you are among these, this book is for you.Not surprisingly, gun owners and firearms enthusiasts are often part of a social gun culture in which certain facts, trends, and fads circulate and evolve with time, some stirring intense loyalty among shooters even when the realities suggest otherwise. For the average gun user some very popular myths, misconceptions, and miscalculations concerning ballistics and the terminal effects of bullets are strongly held, and it is not the purpose of this discussion to demonstrate why they are or are not true, only to lay out the parameters of the debate so that the readers can make their own judgments with increased confidence. The origin of ballistics is in the study of the flight path of projectiles, but its domain has been expanded in modern times. Among the modern ballistic sciences are areas of interest concerning how ammunition and weapons operate. |

| gyrojet lancejet: The Darkness Beckons Martyn Farr, 2017-05 Martyn Farr¿s The Darkness Beckons charts the history and development of cave diving, from early underwater expeditions in France in the late nineteenth century, through to cutting-edge dives across the globe, where iron-willed individuals are pushing the limits of equipment and techniques in the pursuit of exploration. Cave diving is the natural evolution of caving, where cavers and open-water divers overcome the challenges of water-filled passages by using specialist breathing apparatus to explore further and deeper than ever before. The challenges are many ¿ distance, depth, temperature, visibility, rockfall and simple restriction in passage size ¿ together with the physical and mental demands placed on an individual in an environment where, despite meticulous preparation, equipment can malfunction and one cannot expect to be rescued if something goes wrong. Early cave dives were made using Standard Equipment diving suits, before `frogman¿ equipment was adopted by British and Italian divers in the 1940s. Around the same time, Jacques-Yves Cousteau and Émile Gagnan designed the compressed-air aqualung, the first scuba equipment. The development of breathing apparatus has continued, alongside solutions to evermore challenging projects, especially those at extreme depth. British cave divers, including the author, have been at the forefront of many developments, such as the explorations at Wookey Hole in the Mendips, Keld Head in the Yorkshire Dales and Pozo Azul in Spain. Cave diving today is a truly international endeavour, and Farr gives detailed and engaging accounts of developments in Europe, the Americas, Australia and New Zealand, Southern Africa and more. Farr introduces cave diving¿s pioneers and chronicles their achievements. Among a cast of many are the Britons Graham Balcombe and Mike Boon; the American Sheck Exley, who died while attempting to establish a new depth record in the Zacatón sinkhole in Mexico; and the outstanding German cave diver and equipment innovator Jochen Hasenmayer. The stories of their adventures are charged with courage, danger and excitement, and some have led to tragedy. First published in 1980, this 2017 edition of The Darkness Beckons has been fully revised and updated to reflect the latest developments. Featuring over 400 breathtaking photographs and illustrations, and with a foreword by renowned American cave diver and explorer Bill Stone, it is an inspirational read for anyone with an interest in exploration and adventure. |

The 1950s were Broadway's heyday but also the time of blacklisting, and Malden paints a vivid picture here of those times. Moreover, the actor eschews the 'down-and-dirty tell-all memoir' so common now to offer his views on the various acting techniques and methods he came upon. Recommended. - Library Journal |

He rubbed shoulders with the mob, the Kennedys, and Hollywood's biggest stars. He was one of America's favorite entertainers. But no one really knew him. Now Nick Tosches reveals the man behind the image--the dark side of the American dream.
