Pave, paired with other words, also names laser systems that designate targets for LGBs, for example Pave Penny, Pave Spike, Pave Tack and Pave Knife, and for specialized military aircraft, such as AC-130U Pave Spectre, MH-53 Pave Low, and HH-60 Pave Hawk.

The Lockheed Martin AN / AAS-35 ( V ) Pave Penny is a laser spot tracker carried by US Air Force attack aircraft and fighter-bombers to enable them to track a laser spot on the ground ( it does not produce a laser beam itself, so the aircraft cannot launch and guide laser-guided bombs against ground targets without additional hardware ).

Pave Penny was developed in the mid-1970s based on the earlier AN / AVQ-11 Pave Sword laser tracker used on a few USAF F-4 Phantom II during the Vietnam War, miniaturized using solid-state electronics.

Unlike the LRMTS ( laser ranger and marked target seeker ) systems common to European aircraft, or the more sophisticated ASQ-228 ATFLIR, TIALD, and LANTIRN designators, Pave Penny does not contain a laser.

Pave Penny can recognize specific laser designation signals based on pre-determined four-digit codes encoded into the laser pulse, allowing it to seek out particular targets and ignore others ( to avoid, for example, several aircraft hitting the same target ).

The Ford Aerospace AN / AVQ-26 Pave Tack is an electro-optical targeting pod developed by the United States Air Force ( USAF ) for military attack aircraft.

Pave Tack is a large installation, with the pod alone weighing some 629 kg ( 1, 385 lb ) and measuring 4, 220 mm ( 166 inches ) in length.

On the F-4, the size of the pod meant that it had to be carried on the centerline station in place of the standard drop tank, and it imposed a substantial drag penalty ; crews referred to it as " Pave Drag ," and it was generally unpopular.

The F-111C and F-111F carried the Pave Tack pod on a rotating carriage in its internal weapons bay, retracting it when not in use to reduce drag and protect the sensors from damage.

The Ford Aerospace AN / AVQ-10 Pave Knife was an early targeting pod developed by the USAF to designate and guide laser-guided bombs.

Pave Knife was a roughly banana-shaped external pod, weighing about 550 kg ( 1, 200 lb ), containing a steerable laser and closed-circuit television camera.

A special conference of scholars on Pius XII on the 50th anniversary of his death was held in Rome on 15 – 17 September 2008, by Pave the Way Foundation, a nonsectarian organization founded by Gary Krupp, a Jewish American, which promotes interfaith cooperation.

This force was flown several hours by US Air Force MH-53 Pave Lows to the dam.

Although their personnel was continually changing, The Meanies ' sound would remain consistent as they released the albums Peace Love Groove ( 1991 ), Pave The World ( 1992 ), Kiss Your Ass Goodbye ( 1995 ), Full Throttle ( 1997 ), and the live Sonic Documentation Of Exhibition And Banter ( 1998 ).

Direction of the program was assigned to the Guided Bomb Program Office at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in August, and flight testing begun in November at Eglin Air Force Base under the direction of an interagency organization called the Pave Way Task Force.

The original, comprehensive METRO regional plan was defeated in a vote by suburbanites who seemed to view the problem not as one of pollution, transit, sprawl, or lack of planning: in what some Seattleites referred to as the " Pave the Lake " strategy, they just wanted more bridges across Lake Washington.

The Buccaneers carried the Pave Spike designator, which was less capable and limited to daylight.

Pave Tack was developed in the late 1970s, and was initially used by the USAF McDonnell-Douglas F-4 Phantom II and General Dynamics F-111F Aardvark strike aircraft.

Pave Knife was developed in 1969 to replace the original, essentially improvised Airborne Laser Designator ( ALD ).

When Pave Knife was sent out for bid by the Air Force, it was for a firm fixed-price type of contract, it involved design, development, and manufacture of one prototype, and also a quick reaction project.

Pave Knife was used by F-4 Phantom II and A-6 Intruder aircraft in the attack role.

The Pave Knife was superseded by the later Pave Spike and Pave Tack systems, and is no longer in service.

Pave or PAVE is sometimes used as an acronym for precision avionics vectoring equipment ; literally, electronics for controlling the speed and direction of aircraft.

In some cases, the basic mission code is replaced by one of the modified mission codes when it is more suitable ( e. g., MH-53 Pave Low III ).

During the national tobacco litigation, a memo from Philip Morris executive Frank Gomez revealed that Ridenour ( under her maiden name of Amy Moritz ) had offered " to use any information we can provide re the current anti-tobacco onslaught ..." Ridenour wrote many op-eds attacking the filing of lawsuits by state attorneys general against tobacco firms and on tobacco policies, such as " Ironies of the Tobacco Wars ," " Federal Tobacco Lawsuit Could Pave Way for Litigation Tax on Other Industries ," " Latin America Go Home: Tobacco Policies in Foreign Countries Should Be Made by Foreign Countries, Not in U. S. Courts " and " Lawyers ' Fees in Tobacco Case Should Be Capped.
