Tatra Tiger
"Tatra Tiger" is a nickname that refers to the economy of Slovakia in period 2002 – 2007, following the ascendance of a right-leaning coalition in September 2002 which engaged in a program of liberal economic reforms. The name "Tatra Tiger" derives from the local Tatra mountain range. In 2004 and 2005, Slovakia had one of the highest gross domestic product growth rates in the European Union after some of the Baltic countries, reaching 6%. In 2006, the year-over-year growth amounted to an unexpected 9.8% in the 3rd quarter, which helped to increase the overall annual economic growth expectation for 2006 from 6–6.5% to 8.2%. This 9.8% growth (a low estimate) can be partly ascribed to the launch of production at a new Peugeot SA plant. The growth came as a surprise to local analysts, given that another big foreign investor, Kia, launched its production in late 2006. In 4Q of 2007, the growth was 14.3%. However, public polling shows that despite the resultant high growth rat ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Tátra-class Destroyer
The ''Tátra'' class consisted of six destroyers built for the Austro-Hungarian Navy shortly before the First World War. Design and description By the last years of the first decade of the 20th century, Admiral Graf Rudolf Montecuccoli, head of the Austro-Hungarian Navy (german: kaiserliche und königliche Kriegsmarine), recognized that the latest s were already obsolete in comparison to larger and faster foreign destroyers. His 1910 expansion plan called for six new large destroyers powered by steam turbines and their construction was awarded to a Hungarian shipyard to secure Hungarian parliamentary approval of the expansion program. The ''Tátra''-class ships displaced more than twice as much as the ''Huszár'' class which allowed them to have a much stronger armament and be significantly faster. The ships had an overall length of , a beam of , and a maximum draft of . They displaced at normal load and at deep load. The ships had a complement of 105 officers and enlisted men ...
