As such the registry ranges from the pre-World War II era tanks to modern T-72 tanks. However, the registry is not intended to include any modern AFVs that are still in service. Format The Poland Historical AFV Register is organized by Voivodeship and city or town as follows. VOIVODESHIP CITY OR TOWN AFV Model Man./User status Notes and/or location The numbers in parentheses are department numbers or city postal codes respectively. Man./User donotes the original manufacturer (country) and various users, using three letter country codes. Status is denoted by one of the following codes. ind = indoor display out = outdoor display std = stored (this can be either indoor our outdoor storage, but clearly not on display) wre = wreck (typically vehicles on or recovered from a target range, or simply in very bad condition) dep = departed Additional information about a particular vehicle is often included in footnotes. Often, if there are a large number of AFVs on display in a particular town or military post, sublistings are also provided, organized by location - museum, building, road, etc. Sources The Poland Historical AFV Register is compiled from a number of sources. Firstly, the register is an expansion of a portion of Leslie Delsing’s “Europe AFVs” register file and of Łukasz Sambor website http://www.militarnepodroze.net/. Some of the other notable online sources include the websites http://www.odkrywca-online.com/, http://www.forum.eksploracja.pl/index.php and http://www.militarium.net/forum/ The persons who noticeably helped doing this register are DaSk, Waldemar Raczkowiak, Andrzej Ditrich, Paweł Kupisz, Piotr Michno, Damian Tadych, Romuald Guzenda, Rafal Roszak, Łukasz "Lupac" Pacholski, Maciej Grabowski, Czarek Piotrowski “Alkali”, Wojtek Zaremba, Łukasz Tomaszewski, Michał Szafran, Lufcik, asdg70, mac76, Krzysztof Spólnicki, Tomek Spólnicki and Pierre-Olivier Buan.

  • Worldwide Equipment Guide Chapter 1: Littoral Systems
    Dec 2016 Worldwide Equipment Guide Chapter 1: Littoral Systems TRADOC G-2 ACE Threats Integration Ft. Leavenworth, KS Distribution Statement: Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited. Worldwide Equipment Guide Chapter 1: Littoral This chapter focuses on vessels for use in littoral ("near the shore") operations. Littoral activities include the following: - "brown water" naval operations in coastal waters (out to as far as 200+ km from shore), - amphibious landing operations or port entry (opposed and unopposed), - coastal defense actions (including patrols, engaging enemy, and denying entry) - operations in inland waterways (rivers, lakes, etc), and - actions in large marshy or swampy areas. There is no set distance for “brown water.” Littoral range is highly dependent on specific geography at any point along a coast. Littoral operations can be highly risky. Forces moving in water are often challenged by nature and must move at a slow pace while exposed to enemy observation and fires. Thus littoral forces will employ equipment best suited for well-planned operations with speed, coordination, and combined arms support. Littoral forces will employ a mix of conventional forces, specialized (naval, air, and ground) forces and equipment, and civilian equipment which can be acquired or recruited for the effort. Each type of action may require a different mix of equipment to deal with challenges of terrain, vulnerability, and enemy capabilities. Coastal water operations can utilize naval vessels that can operate in blue water. Naval battle groups for deep water also operate in littoral waters. Submarines and anti-submarine warfare (ASW) systems conduct missions in littoral waters. But challenges of shallow waters and shoreline threats also require use of smaller fast-attack boats, patrol craft, cutters, etc.

These predecessors of the armored cavalry regiments of the late 1940s to early 2000s carried the lineages of pre-war cavalry regiments. Supporting field armies, corps, and divisions, the lightly armed, fast-moving cavalry groups performed not only their primary roles of reconnaissance and security missions, but also both offensive and defensive operations, as well as a variety of unforeseen special missions.
