Iveco LMV
Iveco LMV (Light Multirole Vehicle) is a 4WD tactical vehicle developed by Iveco, and in service with several countries. After its adoption by the Italian Army as the ''Veicolo-Tattico-Leggero-Multiruolo'' (VTLM) ''Lince'' ("Light tactical multirole vehicle Lynx"), it won the Future Command and Liaison Vehicle (FCLV) competition of the British Army as the Panther, but the fleet was put up for sale in 2018. It has been adopted by the armies of Albania, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Norway, Russia and Spain. The Italian Army took vehicles to both Afghanistan and Lebanon. In Afghanistan, Lince vehicles have saved passengers' lives in several attacks with IEDs. Design The LMV uses modular armour packs to adjust its level of protection to its mission requirements. In regards to mine protection, the vehicle's ground clearance has been increased to 493 mm without increasing the overall height (less than 2 meters); it also uses suspended seats of aeronautical derivation, v-hull ...

M65 Jacket
The M-1965 Field Jacket (also known as M65, M-65 Field Jacket, and Coat, Cold Weather, Man's Field), eponymously named after the year it was introduced, is a popular field jacket initially designed for the United States Armed Forces under the ''MIL-C-43455J'' standard, produced by Alpha Industries, the Southern Athletic Co.; the John Ownbey Co., and the Golden Mfg. Co., among others. It was introduced into U.S. military service in 1965 to replace the previous M-1951 field jacket, itself an improvement on the M-1943 field jacket introduced during World War II, although the M-51 continued to be issued for quite some time. The front portion of the jacket has two large hip pockets and two medium-sized breast pockets. The collar of the jacket features a zipper which houses a protective hood. The M-1965 field jacket can be combined with a button-in insulated lining for cold-weather wear, as well as a button-on fur trimmed winter hood. The jacket is fastened with a large aluminum or bra ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
M65 Recoilless Nuclear Rifle
The M-28 or M-29 Davy Crockett Weapon System was a tactical nuclear recoilless smoothbore gun for firing the M388 nuclear projectile, armed with the W54 nuclear warhead, that was deployed by the United States during the Cold War. It was the first project assigned to the United States Army Weapon Command in Rock Island, Illinois. It remains one of the smallest nuclear weapon systems ever built, with a yield of . It is named after American folk hero, soldier, and congressman Davy Crockett. History By the year 1950, there had been rapid developments made in the use of nuclear weapons after the detonation of "Little Boy" and "Fat Man" in 1945. These developments paved the way for nuclear warheads to be created at a smaller size. By the 1950s, advances in nuclear weapons technology, spurred on by the first detonation of the Soviet nuclear bomb in 1949, led to great reductions in the size of nuclear weapons. By 1957, the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) declared that it had created a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Soltam M-65
The Soltam M-65 is a 120 mm mortar that was developed by Tampella in 1953 via introduction of new baseplate for 120 Krh/40 invented by Hans Otto Donner. In 1960s Soltam Systems of Israel bought a license. The mortar system comes in two versions, a standard mortar and a long-range version. Design This heavy mortar is light enough to be transported by helicopter sling load, drop by parachute or carried in an APC such as the M113 Armored Personnel Carrier. It can also be towed as a normal artillery piece or even manhandled if necessary. The wheels on the carriage are the same as fitted to the M151 Jeep, and have handling rings to aid in manhandling it. All components are made of chrome-plated or stainless steel to resist wear and corrosion. Vehicle mounted version * M3 Mk.

Tikka M65
The Tikka M65 (originally Tikka LSA65) is a Finnish rifle designed by a Finnish firearms company Tikkakoski in 1969. It was designed as a long action rifle on the basis of the short action Tikka M55 rifle, however its action differs much from the M55. Like the Tikka M55, the M65 was imported to the United States by Ithaca Gun Company. History Tikkakoski company had designed the Tikka M55 in 1967–1968 and it had been brought to production in 1968 (initially called ''Tikka M76'' but already in 1969 ''LSA55''). However, it could only use cartridges with cases up to 55 mm, and Tikkakoski decided to develop a long action rifle in 1969, the M65, which initially was called ''LSA65'', for cases up to 65 mm long (after which the rifle was named). In 1972 the rifle was renamed to M65. Tikkakoski company was bought by Nokia in 1974 and by Sako in 1983. Sako also bought Valmet in 1986. After the success of the Tikka M55 as a sniper rifle, in 1988 Sako brought a purpose-built sni ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
M65 Motorway
The M65 is a motorway in Lancashire, England. It runs from just south of Preston through the major junction of the M6 and M61 motorways, east past Darwen, Blackburn, Accrington, Burnley, Brierfield, Nelson and ends at Colne. History The M65 was opened in the following sections: *Junctions 1a to 6 M6 to Whitebirk in 1997 *Junctions 6 to 7 (Whitebirk to Accrington/Hyndburn) in 1984 *Junctions 7 to 10 (Hyndburn to Burnley) in 1983 *Junctions 10 to 12 (Burnley to Brierfield) in 1981 *Junctions 12 to 13 (Brierfield to Nelson) in 1983 *Junctions 13 to 14 (Nelson to Colne) in 1988 The first section of the motorway was opened in 1981, connecting Burnley to Brierfield. Over the years, several extensions were made, the largest being the link from Whitebirk to the M6 and M61 motorways in 1997. This extension was the scene of a standoff between construction security workers and protesters forming part of the environmental direct action movement. Protesters occupied abandoned bui ...

M-65 (Michigan Highway)
M-65 is a state trunkline highway in the US state of Michigan. The highway runs between termini on US Highway 23 (US 23) near Omer and Rogers City in the northeastern Lower Peninsula of the state. M-65 runs inland through several small communities in the region, passing through forests and fields along its course. M-65 crosses several watercourses, including the Au Sable River where it runs along the River Road National Scenic Byway. The region also includes the Huron National Forest and the Mackinaw State Forest areas. The original M-65 was created by 1919 on a discontinuous series of roads between the Ohio state line and Flint; the two sections were later joined together before the highway was replaced by US 23 in 1926. The current M-65 was created in 1930 in Iosco County. When US 23 near Omer was moved in 1932, M-65 was extended southward to encompass a roadway formerly part of US 23. A second segment in Alpena County was added to M-65 later in the 1930s ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Miles M
The mile, sometimes the international mile or statute mile to distinguish it from other miles, is a British imperial unit and United States customary unit of distance; both are based on the older English unit of length equal to 5,280 English feet, or 1,760 yards. The statute mile was standardised between the British Commonwealth and the United States by an international agreement in 1959, when it was formally redefined with respect to SI units as exactly . With qualifiers, ''mile'' is also used to describe or translate a wide range of units derived from or roughly equivalent to the Roman mile, such as the nautical mile (now exactly), the Italian mile (roughly ), and the Chinese mile (now exactly). The Romans divided their mile into 5,000 Roman feet but the greater importance of furlongs in Elizabethan-era England meant that the statute mile was made equivalent to or in 1593. This form of the mile then spread across the British Empire, some successor states of which conti ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
M65 (Durban)
The M65 also named Mdloti Street is a short metropolitan route in the eThekwini Metropolitan Municipality, South Africa linking the N2 and R102 to King Shaka International Airport and Dube TradePort. Route The M65 begins at the Exit 195 interchange with the N2 highway (to KwaDukuza and Durban) heading in a west-southwesterly direction. Motorists on the M65 exiting southwards to Durban pay toll at the King Shaka Ramp Plaza whilst motorists on the M65 exiting northwards to KwaDukuza pay toll at the oThongathi Mainline Toll Plaza, 7 km further on the N2. It bypasses King Shaka International Airport's (KSIA) runway to the south before intersecting with the road to KSIA's car rental returns. The M65 proceeds to intersect with the road to KSIA's parking and terminal building and Dube City (''Umsinsi Junction'') and thereafter it intersects with International Trade Avenue (to Dube TradeZone and Dube Cargo Terminal). The road proceeds to make a sharp right turn, intersecting wi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Envelope
An envelope is a common packaging item, usually made of thin, flat material. It is designed to contain a flat object, such as a letter or card. Traditional envelopes are made from sheets of paper cut to one of three shapes: a rhombus, a short-arm cross or a kite. These shapes allow the envelope structure to be made by folding the sheet sides around a central rectangular area. In this manner, a rectangle-faced enclosure is formed with an arrangement of four flaps on the reverse side. Overview A folding sequence such that the last flap closed is on a short side is referred to in commercial envelope manufacture as a pocket – a format frequently employed in the packaging of small quantities of seeds. Although in principle the flaps can be held in place by securing the topmost flap at a single point (for example with a wax seal), generally they are pasted or gummed together at the overlaps. They are most commonly used for enclosing and sending mail (letters) through a prepaid- ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Messier 65
Messier 65 (also known as NGC 3623) is an intermediate spiral galaxy about 35 million light-years away in the constellation Leo, within its highly equatorial southern half. It was discovered by Charles Messier in 1780. With M66 and NGC 3628, it forms the Leo Triplet, a small close group of galaxies. Discovery M65 was discovered by Charles Messier and included in his Messier Objects list. However, William Henry Smyth accidentally attributed the discovery to Pierre Méchain in his popular 19th-century astronomical work ''A Cycle of Celestial Objects'' (stating "They 65 and M66were pointed out by Méchain to Messier in 1780"). This error was in turn picked up by Kenneth Glyn Jones in ''Messier's Nebulae and Star Clusters''. This has since ramified into a number of other books by a variety of authors. Star formation The galaxy is low in dust and gas, and there is little star formation in it, although there has been some relatively recently in the arms. The ratio of old stars to ...
