It clearly highlights that Sheikh Zayed’s dream of embracing space is achieved today by “Zayed’s children,” armed with modern science and knowledge. They assert day after day that they can move the UAE into the ranks of KhalifaSat: Zayed’s developed countries. The UAE space project began with an idea that was born during Sons Make The Sheikh Zayed’s meeting in the 1970’s with the NASA team responsible for the Apollo trip to the moon. The idea then turned into a legitimate Dream Come True ambition to enter the space age. This ambition was then translated into action to establish a national space sector, beginning with the establishment of Thuraya Telecom in April 1997, Yahsat (Al Yah By: Satellite Communications Company) 10 years later in 2007, and the Staff Lieutenant Colonel / announcement by His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Yousef Juma Al Haddad President of the UAE, on July 16, 2014, of the establishment of the Editor in Chief UAE Space Agency, which is responsible for the space sector. [email protected] The launch of KhalifaSat into space is a civilised quantum leap for the UAE in particular, and all Arabs in general. It does not only translate the cultural, scientific, and technological development of the UAE, Since its inception in the early 1970’s by the but it also sends a message of hope and optimism to Arab peoples founding father Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, that Arabs can contribute to human civilisation if they master science may God rest his soul in peace, the key feature of and sound planning, and own a good outlook for the future, just as the UAE is that it doesn’t know the impossible. Its the UAE did. It managed to break the stereotype of the Arab and aspirations have no ceiling or limits. It always has Islamic countries as “rigid” states that do not move in favour of a new the strong will to succeed and look forward to the image based on participation in the creation of human civilisation future as long as it works for it. This philosophy of and encouragement of innovation and creativity, such as space action has become an approach followed by all, manufacturing, aerospace and other fields that require a modern leadership and people, so the UAE is now an icon intellectual, cognitive and technical infrastructure. of success and a source of inspiration for countries The Emirates Space Project includes ambitious programmes that seek to achieve development and progress. to prepare national cadres with expertise in space science, and continuous plans to develop the education system in the country to meet the requirements of this vital sector. With the launch of KhalifaSat, the UAE has entered into the age of full space industrialisation and continues to work day and night to send the first Emirati probe, the Hope Probe, to Mars in 2021, which coincides with the UAE golden jubilee of its foundation. The launch of KhalifaSat coincides with the Year of Zayed in which the UAE celebrates the 100th anniversary of the birth of Sheikh Zayed. This is in fact the best celebration and appreciation of the founding leader, because it affirms that his legacy in work, construction, ambition and sacrifice for the homeland, constitute the value system with which Zayed’s sons arm themselves to face challenges and cross into the future.

  • The Defence Needs of Azerbaijani Armed Forces for Peace, Security, and Stability
    Open Military Studies 2020; 1: 79–87 Research Article Muhammad Ali Baig*,† The Defence Needs of Azerbaijani Armed Forces for Peace, Security, and Stability https://10.1515/openms-2020-0106 Received Oct 15, 2020; accepted Dec 11, 2020 Abstract: Azerbaijan is a peace-loving country and a cooperative member of the United Nations Organization. Being a sovereign member of the international community, it has all the rights and privileges entitled to a state. However, the claims of neighbouring Armenia driven by irredentism and revanchism over the contested region of Nagorno Karabakh have led to numerous conflicts between the two. Having the role of ensuring Azerbaijan’s political integrity and sovereign status, the role of its armed forces is demanding yet challenging. This article is geared towards analysing the operational capabilities of Azerbaijani Armed Forces with a special focus on equipment, doctrine, and command and control platforms. It also assesses and prescribes the necessary and immediate needs to deter the threats and to thwart any military conflict. It theorises the potential of Azerbaijan-Pakistan defence relations. Finally, it aspires to take a structural approach in explaining the state behaviour and the relevance of security in contemporary times. Keywords: Azerbaijan, Armenia, Nagorno Karabakh, Armed Forces, Caspian Sea, Peace and Security 1 Introduction The military force of a state not only ensures security, but it guarantees a rapid yet credible response in case of an armed conflict. The size, structure, organization and equipment along with training play a vital role in such endeavours. Apart from these pivotal constituent elements, the doctrine by the virtue of which an armed force guides its actions serves as the basic framework to achieve policy objectives.

G. Student, Department of Mechanical Engineering, GS Mandal’s- MIT, Aurangabad, Maharashtra, Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University, Aurangabad, Maharashtra, (India) ABSTRACT An Amphibious vehicle is a means of transport, viable on land as well as on water even under water. It is simply may also called as Amphibian. Amphibious vehicle is a concept of vehicle having versatile usage. It can be put forward for the commercialization purpose with respect to various applications like in the field of military and rescue operations. Researchers are working on amphibious vehicle with capability to run in adverse conditions in efficient way. This paper focuses on concept of amphibious vehicle in detail. In later stage of paper we have explain and described the design and analysis of amphibious car. We have followed proper design procedure and enlisted the material used in detail. Capabilities of efficient amphibious vehicle will fulfil all the emerging needs of society. Success of every concept largely relies on research and development, though amphibious vehicle is yet to travel a long journey of innovative development, it has shown excellent potentials for future benefits.

The Argentines have 54 of these vehicles on hand at present, though they do not currently have plans to manufacture more. In this role, the turret is removed, and in its place is a hump-backed rear with a set of large hatches, which are opened when the mortar is to be fired. What is normally the rear cargo area is taken up by the mortar, a turntable built into the floor of the vehicle, a special bipod and sight assembly designed for the vehicle, and ammunition racks. However, the VCTM carries only a limited amount of ammunition and charges internally (like almost all mortar carriers) and during most extended firing missions, the VCTM is fed by crewmembers manning ammunition stacks and charge containers outside the rear doors of the vehicle, who attach the charges to the rounds according to the range required and then pass them by hand to the assistant gunner (the crewmember who actually drops the round down the tube).
