Corvettes to sail smartly: nearly half a century ago the major navies' last corvettes were being towed ignominiously to the scrap yards. But over the past two decades there has been a renaissance in this category; not just among Third World navies but also some of the major naval powers, indeed even the Royal Navy has shown interest in this type of warship.	Hooton, E.R.	2385
Developing, testing--and ranges to do that: unveiled without much fanfare in mid-2006, the Polecat drone (also code-named P-175) was nevertheless given the <<2006 Best for What's New>> award by Popular Science. The design may look unusual for an unmanned vehicle, but the pattern is quite logical.	Biass, Eric H.	1213

Drives for drones: engines designed for vehicles as diverse as snowmobiles and regional jets have been adapted for drones. Their special needs are reductions in engine weight, fuel consumption and detectability, and the use of battlefront fuels.	Braybrook, Roy	1939

Hand on the trigger: forward operating bases (and troops) are some of the most valuable and definitely the most vulnerable assets available to any commander. Keeping the front-line forces safe, and doing so without putting innocents in danger, requires an innovative mix of planning, equipment and technology.	Kemp, Ian	2677

Taking Di@ne to the next level: battle planning has metamorphosed from arranging wooden figures on a castle floor to an in-depth, highly technical choreograph of command assets, possible hostile contacts, engagement scenarios and solutions.	Keggler, Johnny	2297
