Название: A Field Guide to Ghost Guns Автор: Robert E. Walker Издательство: CRC Press Год: 2022 Формат: True PDF Страниц: 145 Размер: 110 Mb Язык: English
While it has always been legal for a citizen in the United States to manufacture their own firearm, the sale and distribution of such items is illegal under current U.S. law. The primary impediment to individuals making their own weapons has been access to the tooling and machinery required to convert raw materials into finished parts for assembly. However, in the last fifteen years this paradigm has changed drastically. Home builders and companies have emerged to support individuals who choose to produce their own firearm. Kits with receivers and gun components are available for hobbyists, as are 3-D printable gun designs, downloadable from the Internet in some cases. This phenomenon has led to the term ghost guns: firearms whose existence is not reported to any third party and therefore whose existence is unknown and, largely, untraceable. |

Название: Autonomous Weapons Systems and International Norms Автор: Hendrik Huelss and Ingvild Bode Издательство: McGill-Queen's University Press Год: 2022 Страниц: 297 Язык: английский Формат: pdf (true), epub Размер: 21.7 MB
Autonomous weapons systems seem to be on the path to becoming accepted technologies of warfare. The weaponization of Artificial Intelligence (AI) raises questions about whether human beings will maintain control of the use of force. The notion of meaningful human control has become a focus of international debate on lethal autonomous weapons systems among members of the United Nations: many states have diverging ideas about various complex forms of human-machine interaction and the point at which human control stops being meaningful. |

 Название: Osprey New Vanguard 211 - US Cold War Aircraft Carriers: Forrestal, Kitty Hawk and Enterprise Classes Автор: Brad Elward Издательство: Osprey Publishing Год: 2014 Формат: PDF Страниц: 48 Размер: 2,7 МБ Язык: Английский
The Forrestal class (Forrestal, Saratoga, Ranger, and Independence) was the first completed class of US Navy supercarriers, so-named for their 25 percent size increase over the World War II-era carriers such as the Midway class, and the strength of their air wings (80–100 aircraft, compared to 65–75 for the Midway, and fewer than 50 for the Essex class). Design-wise, the Forrestals were a huge improvement over their predecessors, being more stable and comfortable, while maintaining advancements such as the armored flight decks that had been introduced with the Midway.

 Название: Osprey New Vanguard 79 - American Heavy Frigates 1794-1826 Автор: Mark Lardas Издательство: Osprey Publishing Год: 2003 Формат: PDF Страниц: 48 Размер: 2,4 МБ Язык: Английский
By 1805 the 44-gun frigate was probably viewed as a failed experiment whilst the 38-gun frigate was viewed as the vessel of the future. Ten years later every navy was building 44-gun frigates and today it is viewed as the symbol of the Napoleonic-era cruiser. This remarkable transformation resulted from the performance of three ships – the Constitution, United States, and President – 44-gun frigates built for the United States Navy between 1794 and 1799.
