    In the crowded streets of Mogadishu sits a downed Blackhawk surrounded by a tyrannical warlord and his drug-crazed warriors. In the villages of Iraq lurk insurgents led by the ruthless al-Qaeda. In the arid desert of the Bakaw Valley is a terrorist training camp. In the mountains of Tora Bora lurks Osama bin Laden and his fanatical followers. Against these desperate foes are the most advanced armies ever created. But after the smoke from the smart bombs has cleared, it’s the infantry who must go in and finish the job. These are today’s threats. These are Modern Ops. Modern Ops lets you recreate the battles of the modern world, from regular mili- tary operations to special forces actions in Iraq, Afghanistan, the Soviet Union, and more. You’ll find complete troop lists for today’s combat- ants, including vehicles and aircraft, as well as our trade- mark Savage Tales and random Events that make every battle a surprise. Modern Ops is a complete miniatures skir- mish game. The Savage Worlds roleplaying game is NOT required.

    Deep Web Secret Deep Web Secret Automatic Pistols These weapons use Guns(Pistol)/TL7 skill. AMT Automag .44 AutoMag (Holdout -2) AMT Original Automag: A large single action semi automatic weapon, this is the original Automag by Harry Sanford. When it was introduced in the seventies this was the first pistol to fire high powered magnum cartridges. Clint Eastwood takes a break from his .44 Magnum to use the .44 Automag in one of his Dirty Harry films. It has been out of production for close to two decades now, but after Harry Sanford died in early 1999 the AMT factory was sold off, and the new owners decided to run a limited series of original Automags in the .44 AMP caliber. These guns will be exact copies of the original guns. This may also mean that they will only function properly with full powered loads, and that some parts (most notably the extractor) will be somewhat fragile. Most likely these guns will seldom be fired anyway, as they are instant collectors items due to their reputation and their flashy, sleek and slightly futuristic looks. Should these guns be used they will look very intimidating and at the same time classy, combined with a lot of recoil... The Automag is a recoil operated pistol, is made entirely of stainless steel, and these new guns are of excellent quality, unlike some of the last pistols made in the seventies. They are very accurate. The magazine holds seven rounds of .44 AMP ammo. AMT Automag III (Holdout -2) A large single action semi automatic weapon, this is the brainchild of Harry Sanford, creator of the original automag.

Most of the design work was done by Germany’s Thyssen-Krupp AG, who had already developed the TAM light tank for Argentina. The idea of an APC based on the TAM chassis was the idea of the Argentine Army, and this was done to decrease the cost of the VCTP as well as the cost of maintenance by producing a vehicle that had a large percentage of parts that were the same as the TAM. It also meant that mechanics trained to work on the TAM could be quickly trained to also work on the VCTP, and a driver who could drive a TAM could drive a VCTP. The Argentine Army originally intended to replace all of their APCs and many of its scout vehicles with the VCTP, for a total of 350 VCTPs and VCPCs; however, only 210 (of all versions) were actually produced, due to budgetary problems.

    VIII th International Armament Conference „Scientific Aspects of Armament & Safety Technology”, Pułtusk, Poland, 6-8.10.2010 SOME DESIGN FEATURES OF SOLID PROPELLANT ROCKET MOTORS FOR SHOULDER-LAUNCHED WEAPON SYSTEMS Berko ZECEVIC, Jasmin TERZIC, Mario BASKARAD, Alan CATOVIC, Sabina SERDAREVIC-KADIC, Zijo PEKIC, University of Sarajevo, Mechanical Engineering Faculty, Defense Technologies Department Vilsonovo setaliste 9 71000 Sarajevo,, Bosnia and Herzegovina Abstract. Solid propellant rocket motors for Shoulder Launched Infantry Weapon Systems (SLWS) are characterized with very short burning time, high-pressure combustion and wide spectrum of design solutions for rocket motor structure. Interior ballistic behaviour of such rocket motors depends on many factors as design structure, propellant grain shape, propellant grain joint to the rocket motor case, type and location of the igniter, spinning mode and nozzle design. Erosive burning also plays important role due to high combustion gases mass flow rate. Numerical simulation of the igniter combustion gases flow through the hollow of the propellant grain tubes with gas temperature distribution was carried out in this paper. Results confirmed an assumptions that igniter interior gases flow affected pressure rise duration. A mathematical model approach for prediction of curve p=f(t) which was included a model of the corrected propellant grain burning surface for two types of short-time rocket motors has been presented. A good agreement with measured curves was achieved. Keywords: short-action solid rocket motor, burning rate, ignition time, derivative dp/dt , regression model. 1. INTRODUCTION An intensive development of shoulder-launched weapon systems (unguided and guided) with munitions propelled by solid propellant rocket motors has been carrying out recently.
