Its primary responsibility is to secure Indian airspace and to conduct aerial warfare during a conflict. It was officially established on October 8, 1932 as an auxiliary air force of the Indian Empire and the prefix Royal was added in 1945 in recognition of its services during the World War II. After India achieved independence from the United Kingdom in 1947, the Royal Indian Air Force served the Union of India, with the prefix being dropped when India became a republic in 1950.

    FROM CRADLE TO GRAVE? The Place of the Aircraft Carrier in Australia's post-war Defence Force Subthesis submitted for the degree of MASTER OF DEFENCE STUDIES at the University College The University of New South Wales Australian Defence Force Academy 1996 by ALLAN DU TOIT ACADEMY LIBRARy UNSW AT ADFA 437104 HMAS Melbourne, 1973. Trackers are parked to port and Skyhawks to starboard Declaration by Candidate I hereby declare that this submission is my own work and that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, it contains no material previously published or written by another person nor material which to a substantial extent has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma of a university or other institute of higher learning, except where due acknowledgment is made in the text of the thesis. Allan du Toit Canberra, October 1996 Ill Abstract This subthesis sets out to study the place of the aircraft carrier in Australia's post-war defence force. Few changes in naval warfare have been as all embracing as the role played by the aircraft carrier, which is, without doubt, the most impressive, and at the same time the most controversial, manifestation of sea power. From 1948 until 1983 the aircraft carrier formed a significant component of the Australian Defence Force and the place of an aircraft carrier in defence strategy and the force structure seemed relatively secure. Although cost, especially in comparison to, and in competition with, other major defence projects, was probably the major issue in the demise of the aircraft carrier and an organic fixed-wing naval air capability in the Australian Defence Force, cost alone can obscure the ftindamental reordering of Australia's defence posture and strategic thinking, which significantly contributed to the decision not to replace HMAS Melbourne.

Das Verkehrsflugzeug Dornier „Komet“ (Do P) Von Günter Frost (ADL) Erstveröffentlichung 06.2019 im ADL-Internetportal Teil 3: Technische Beschreibung und Produktion Entwicklung der Dornier-Metallbauweise Die Zeppelinwerke Lindau GmbH (ZWL) unter Leitung von Claude Dornier gehörten zu den wenigen Unternehmen in Eu- ropa, die sich bereits während des 1. Weltkriegs ausschließlich mit der Herstellung von Metallflugzeugen beschäftigt hat- ten. Zunächst wurden intensive Grundsatzforschungen zu allen Fragen der Verwendung von Metall im Flugzeugbau be- trieben und an der methodischen Entwicklung von Verfahren zur Herstellung von Ganzmetallflugzeugen gearbeitet. In die- ser Zeit gewann ZWL wertvolle Erfahrungen sowohl bei der Konstruktion als auch beim Bau, die sich in einer großen Zahl von Patenten im In- und Ausland niederschlugen. Als Baustoffe kamen nur Stahl und Duraluminium zur Verwendung. Während für hochbeanspruchte Teile wie Holme, Mo- torlagerungen, Stiele usw. grundsätzlich gehärteter Stahl benutzt wurde, verwendete man für Flügel, Rümpfe, Boote, Schwimmer, Spieren usw. hauptsächlich Duraluminium. Insbesondere dieses Leichtmetall bereitete bei seiner Verarbei- tung zunächst große Schwierigkeiten, vor allem mußte erst eine geeignete Warmbehandlung entwickelt werden. Hinzu kam, daß sich Duraluminium nur sehr schwer schweißen läßt, so daß auch die Verbindung der einzelnen Teile neue Ver- fahren erforderlich machte. Ebenso bedeutsam war die Entwicklung optimaler Querschnittsformen von Profilen aus Stahl und Leichtmetall. Umfang- reiche Belastungsversuche mit Holmen, Spieren, Stielen, Flächen und ganzen Flugzeugen lieferten die für die Berechnung der Flugzeuge auf statische Festigkeit notwendigen Daten.
