We accept no responsibility for the use or application of this information. We suggest that readers contact the specific government and military programme offices if seeking to confirm the reliability of any data. 1 MARKET OVERVIEW Broadly speaking, the global helicopter market is currently facing a two- pronged assault. The military helicopter segment has been impacted significantly by continued defense budgetary pressures across most traditional markets, and a recent slide in global crude oil prices has impacted the demand for new civil helicopters as well as the level of activity for existing fleets engaged in the offshore oil & gas exploration sector. This situation has impacted industry OEMs significantly, many of which had been working towards strengthening the civil helicopter segment to partially offset the impact of budgetary cuts on the military segment. However, the medium- to long-term view of the market is promising given the presence of strong fundamentals and persistent, sustainable growth drivers. The market for military helicopters in particular is set to cross a technological threshold in the form of next-generation compound helicopters and tilt rotorcraft.

  • Learning Curve During Survey in Antarctica
    ARTICLE COLOMBIA€™S FIRST SCIENTIFIC EXPEDITION TO ANTARCTICA Learning Curve during Survey in Antarctica The first Colombian scientific expedition to Antarctica was a major challenge for the country and the Colombian Hydrographic Survey organisation because of the extreme conditions in which the investigations had to be carried out. It is Colombia’s vision to contribute to the preservation of the 'White Continent'. The preparation and the professionalism of the scientists and crew were critical to achieving the objective of the cruise: to become part of the Antarctic Treaty. This objective has been set out to the member countries of the ’Antarctic Treaty’ in Document 104. Within the Antarctic Treaty Colombia intends to change its status, from an observer country to a consultative treaty country. This resulted in the preparation of the first Colombian expedition to Antarctica. During the preparatory meetings of the expedition, we listened and took note of the recommendations made by the Hydrographic Services of Ecuador, the Hydrographic Service of Chile and the Chilean Antarctic Institute INACH, institutions with extensive experience in research in these latitudes. Each meeting and each recommendation increased our anxiety and fears to explore the unknown, but at the same time, we were encouraged to ultimately prepare ourselves for this challenge. The hydrographic research was coordinated by the Chilean Hydrographic Service and was to result in the delivery of bathymetric information in four areas in the Gerlache Strait, specifically to the nautical chart INT 9103 SHOA / CHILE Bay Markmann to Andrvord Bay. Only 10% of the Antarctic waters are mapped, so this hydrographic survey will be an important contribution to the maritime security in this region, which can be used by all countries practicing tourism or conducting research in this area.

    WARNING! The views expressed in FMSO publications and reports are those of the authors and do not necessarily represent the official policy or position of the Department of the Army, Department of Defense, or the U.S. Government. Guerrilla in The Brazilian Amazon by Colonel Alvaro de Souza Pinheiro, Brazilian Army commentary by Mr. William W. Mendel Foreign Military Studies Office, Fort Leavenworth, KS. July 1995 Acknowledgements The authors owe a debt of gratitude to Marcin Wiesiolek, FMSO analyst and translator, for the figures used in this study. Lieutenant Colonel Geoffrey B. Demarest and Lieutenant Colonel John E. Sray, FMSO analysts, kindly assisted the authors with editing the paper. PRÉCIS Colonel Alvaro de Souza Pinheiro discusses the historical basis for Brazil's current strategic doctrine for defending the Brazilian Amazon against a number of today's transnational threats. He begins with a review of the audacious adventure of Pedro Teixeira, known in Brazilian history as "The Conqueror of the Amazon." The Teixeira expedition of 1637 discovered and manned the principle tributaries of the Amazon River, and it established an early Portuguese- Brazilian claim to the region. By the decentralized use of his forces in jungle and riverine operations, and through actions characterized by surprise against superior forces, Captain Pedro Teixeira established the Brazilian tradition of jungle warfare. These tactics have been emulated since those early times by Brazil's military leaders. Alvaro explains the use of similar operations in Brazil's 1970 counterguerrilla experience against rural Communist insurgents. The actions to suppress FOGUERA (the Araguaia Guerrilla Force, military arm of the Communist Party of Brazil) provided lessons of joint military cooperation and the integration of civilian agency resources with those of the military.
