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.

  • Military Operations
    Case Study Military Operations In additon to serving more traditional aviation users, Tennessee’s airports provide substantial support to military aviation, including both the Tennessee Air National Guard (ANG) and the United States Air Force. These units have played important strategic roles in national defense and the United States’ military presence around the world. Further, their locations are tied to the geopolitical history of the nation. For instance, the nuclear research at Oak Ridge National Laboratory and the Tennessee Valley Authority’s hydroelectric facilities gave critical strategic value to having military aviation as national defense. McGhee Tyson ANG Base – A Legacy of Service in Tennessee The McGhee Tyson ANG Base is located at McGhee Tyson Airport (TYS). Units housed at the base include the 134th Air Refueling Wing, 119th Command and Control Squadron, and 241st Engineering Installation Squadron. The 134th flies KC-135 Stratotankers, the military’s primary aerial refueling aircraft. The KC-135 has been in service for over fifty years and has a strategic role in extending the endurance of United States aircraft in action. The 134th has served in conflicts worldwide for decades, including most recently in the Middle East. The 119th plays a unique support role in ensuring the United States Air Force’s operational readiness as a component of the United States Strategic Command. Its continued presence in Tennessee reflects the state’s importance in the nation’s geopolitical legacy. The 241st has a long history in Tennessee, most recently relocating from another base in Chattanooga to the McGhee Tyson ANG Base. In total, McGhee Tyson ANG Base personnel, including both Air and Army National Guard members, account for over 1,400 jobs earning a combined annual $52 million in wages.

  • Development and Promotion of the Utilization of Vetiver Grass According to His Majesty's Initiative Under the Responsibility O
    Development and Promotion of the Utilization of Vetiver Grass According to His Majesty’s Initiative Under the Responsibility of the 11th Infantry Regiment King’s Guard Lt Colonel Songwit Noonpakdee Commander 11th Infantry Regiment King’s Guard, Thailand Abstract: To fulfill His Majesty’s initiative concerning the development and promotion of the utilization of vetiver grass, the 11th Infantry Regiment King’s Guard has initiated a program based on: 1. Planting of vetiver to prevent soil erosion within the army unit; 2. Setting up a centre to provide knowledge on vetiver among the army officers and their families, as well as the public and private agencies; 3. Launching a campaign among the officers and their families encouraging them to acquire the knowledge on vetiver ecotypes, maintenance, and benefits, and to extend the results among the soldiers, who are about to leave the army, so that they can adopt the knowledge gained on their own land at home; 4. Establishing a propagation center to supply vetiver tillers to other units and government agencies in the nearby areas. So far the program achievements included: 1. Building demonstration plots of vetiver cultivation in various patterns and methods according to the royal initiatives beginning with the unit’s main road; 2. Studying the ponds within the unit and the areas with soil erosion problem, as well as planting vetiver to conserve the areas; 3. Establishing the 11th Infantry Regiment King’s Guard vetiver demonstration centre to extend the results and implement public relations activities to encourage the army officers, their families as well as the interested public to acquire the knowledge; 4.

  • Economic Assessment of Flood Control Facilities Under Climate Uncertainty: a Case of Nakdong River, South Korea
    sustainability Article Economic Assessment of Flood Control Facilities under Climate Uncertainty: A Case of Nakdong River, South Korea Kyeongseok Kim 1,* ID and Ji-Sung Kim 2 ID 1 School of Civil & Environmental Engineering, Yonsei University, Seoul 03277, Korea 2 Hydro Science and Engineering Research Institute, Korea Institute of Civil Engineering and Building Technology, Goyang-Si 10223, Korea; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +82-2123-7940 Received: 6 November 2017; Accepted: 24 January 2018; Published: 25 January 2018 Abstract: Climate change contributes to enhanced flood damage that has been increasing for the last several decades. Understanding climate uncertainties improves adaptation strategies used for investment in flood control facilities. This paper proposes an investment decision framework for one flood zone to cope with future severe climate impacts. This framework can help policy-makers investigate the cost of future damage and conduct an economic assessment using real options under future climate change scenarios. The proposed methodology provides local municipalities with an adaptation strategy for flood control facilities in a flood zone. Using the proposed framework, the flood prevention facilities in the Nakdong River Basin of South Korea was selected as a case study site to analyze the economic assessment of the investments for flood control facilities. Using representative concentration pathway (RCP) climate scenarios, the cost of future flood damage to 23 local municipalities was calculated, and investment strategies for adaptation were analyzed. The project option value was determined by executing an option to invest in an expansion that would adapt to floods under climate change. The results of the case study showed that the proposed flood facilities are economically feasible under both scenarios used.

  • 1 the Royal Thai Navy's Theoretical Application of the Maritime Hybrid
    The Royal Thai Navy’s Theoretical Application of the Maritime Hybrid Warfare Concept by Hadrien T. Saperstein In the maritime strategic thought community there has been much talk about the theoretical application of the Maritime Hybrid Warfare concept by second and third-tier naval powers in the Northeast and Southeast Asia sub-regions.i On that theme, a recent publication on the Royal Thai Navy’s maritime and naval strategic thought concluded that the organisation stands at an existential crossroad with the advent of maritime hybrid threats in the grey-zone warfare era and should therefore consider operationalising the aforesaid multi-dimensional maritime concept to its organisational system and material capabilities.ii Since the publication released date though, this conclusion has only become more poignant in light of recent reports that China, a country that has applied the Maritime Hybrid Warfare since 2012,iii has signed a secret agreement giving it access to the Ream Naval Base in Cambodia.iv This newfound foothold at the mouth of the Gulf of Thailand puts a first-tier naval power – the People's Liberation Army Navy – now within striking distance to one of the Royal Thai Navy’s most important naval bases. In response to this event the following article analyses the manner by which the Royal Thai Navy, a second-tier naval power in the Southeast Asia sub-region, could theoretically operationalise the Maritime Hybrid Warfare concept in an effort to combat the soon-to-be present maritime hybrid threats in its internationally-recognised
