Asiatic Sea Defense & Aerospace 29-31 MARCH, 2011 | SPLIT, CROATIA First time trade shows are a bit uncertain for attendees and exhibitors alike. It’s difficult to determine which start-up shows have a good chance of putting the products in front of the decision makers, before making the financial and time commitment to attend. Location, time of year, competing shows, all enter into these decisions. What help’s make the decision is who the promoter of the show is and how their other shows perform. In the case of ASDA, TNT Produc- ASDA2011 tions, Inc. has many other successful shows and two more military shows in the region: BSDA in Bucharest, and GDA ASIATIC SEA DEFENSE & AEROSPACE in Kuwait. We expected a good show, and TNT certainly made ASDA worth going to. Those who took the time to at- tend are, in the words of one exhibitor, “Plankholders” for future shows. by DAN SHEA 120 SADEFENSEJOURNAL.COM SADEFENSEJOURNAL.COM 121 ASDA 2011 he City of Split, Croatia, was an excellent choice for a show in the region. The April weather is wonderful, the sights are breath- taking, the people are hospitable and the accommodations and expenses are very Treasonable. Split is located on the Dalmatian Coast of the Adriatic Sea, and the Croatian heritage is influ- enced heavily by millennia of interaction with Italy, just across the Sea. Split is also centrally located to many of the regional military groups, making it readily accessible and providing a good flow of attendees. The Spaladium Arena is under construction at present, but it provided a nice venue in the working show area and was easy enough to access. Croatia is expected to enter into the European Union in 2011, becoming the 28th official member of the EU. They are planning to change currency from the Kuna to the Euro in about 2016. On 1 April, 2009, Croatia became an official member of NATO. This has entailed many changes, but the armed forces of Croatia must meet NATO standards, and Croatia has earmarked approximately $4 Billion (U.S. Equiva- lent) for this process. The official notice says it all: “The Croatian Armed Forces Long-Term Develop- ment Plan 2006-2015, which has been approved by the government, details the acquisitions required to substantially modernize the Armed Forces. The mod- ernization plans include ongoing and future expected HS PRODUKT procurements in all 3 major defense sectors: air, land and navy.” This is a strong motivator for military and HS Produkt is a well-known firearms manufacturer in Croatia, with their procurement personnel to want to meet with NATO semiautomatic HS2000 pistols currently being marketed in the U.S. as the item suppliers, and was the foundation that ASDA was Springfield Armory XD model.

The Opening Ceremony remarks given by Justin Webb, President of TNT Productions, Inc. (ASDA pro- moter), introduced the NATO/EU concept to the par- ticipants, and laid the groundwork for the show. Mr. Webb’s group had provided individual country delegate boxes on an upper floor for meetings and preparation, and the delegates from surrounding countries were evident on the showroom floor. Croatian Prime Minis- ter Mrs. Jadranka Kosor then addressed the attendees, and Croatian President (and Supreme Commander of the Croatian Armed Forces) Mr. Ivo Josipović made an official visit to the show.

The Soviets assumed this would be a short uneventful battle; however, the Mujahadeen had other plans. The Mujahadeen are guardians of the Afghani way of live and territory. The Soviets went into Afghanistan with the latest weapons to include the AK-74, AKS-74, and AKSU-74, which replaced the venerable AK-47 in the Soviet Arsenals. The Mujahadeen were armed with Soviet-made AK-47s. This twist of fate would prove to be fatal to the Soviets. For nearly 11 years, the Mujahadeen repelled the Soviet attacks with Soviet-made weapons. The Mujahadeen also captured many newer Soviet small arms, which augmented their supplies of weaponry. In 1989, the Soviet Union withdrew from Afghanistan back to the other side of the mountain. The Mujahadeen thwarted a communist take- over with their strong will to resist and the AK-47. This is important to you because it illustrates what an effective weapon the AK-47 is, and in the hands of a well-trained rifleman, what can be accomplished. Importance This is important to you as a Marine because there is not a battlefield or conflict that you will be deployed to, where you will not find a Kalashnikov AK-47 or variant. In This Lesson This lesson will cover history, evolution, description, and characteristics of foreign weapons.

  • Availability of Illegal Weapons: Connecting the Dots Case Study of CROATIA the Republic of Croatia
    81 Availability of illegal weapons: connecting the dots Case study of CROATIA the Republic of Croatia Filip Dragović, Paul James, Krešimir Mamić and Robert Mikac The territory of the Republic of Croatia has been a corridor for the transportation of people, goods and ideas from its early history to the present day. The modern secu- rity environment and the risks facing Croatia are partly the legacy of its recent history, its geostrategic and geopolitical position, and its role as a transit country on the so-called Balkan routeI for the smuggling of people, drugs, contraband and fire- arms from Asia, Africa and South Eastern Europe to Western Europe, as well as the smuggling of various goods such as stolen vehicles and synthetic drugs in the oppo- site direction. As a result Croatia is often referred to in the context of organised crime. In professional security related circles it is usually linked to the smuggling of heroin from Afghanistan – the world’s largest producer – to Western Europe, where there are developed markets and high demand for heroin. In recent years the Balkan route has also been important for the movement of migrants.1 This route has at least three main branches: the Bulgarian branch, the east Balkan route and the Adriatic route.2 Not surprisingly, the Yugoslav wars in the 1990s strongly impacted the security situ- ation in Croatia and trafficking along the Balkan route. On 25 June 1991 the Republic of Croatia declared its independence and broke its ties with Yugoslavia. The regime in Belgrade refused to accept this and attempted to undermine Croatian independ- ence by encouraging rebellion among the local Serb population and sending the I The assumption is that the original route ran through Turkey, Greece, Bulgaria, Romania, Macedonia, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, and Slovenia to Austria, Italy, and other Western Euro- pean countries.

WASHINGTON D.C. June 20, 2018 - RETAY ARMS LTD. STI. of Konya Turkey announces ​ ​ ​ that on June 12, 2018 the United States Patent and Trademark Office issued PATENT ​ ​ 9,995,542 for “Rotating head assembly for use with the bolt assembly of a gun” in recognition of RETAY’s innovation of a rotating bolt head system that prevents the unintended unlocking of the bolt head from the breach of a firearm. RETAY began developing its rotating bolt system in an effort to achieve a more reliable rotating bolt head for use in semi-automatic firearms. For decades the traditional kinetic energy powered rotating bolt system has enjoyed popularity for its simple design and ease of maintenance however, the original design was plagued by a tendency of the bolt head to unintentionally unlock from the breach of the firearm when it was jarred by walking over rough terrain or by the impact of setting the firearm down. The resulting unlocking would often go unnoticed by the operator and cause a misfire. To prevent a misfire, the operator would have to first be aware of the state of the bolt and then manually re-engage the action which cost time and unnecessary noise that could startle game.
