At least one state vehicle was in existence in 1917.

In order to further refine the management of passenger vehicles, on July 1, 1958, the actual title to every vehicle was transferred, by Executive Order, to the Division of Methods, Research and Office Services.

Unfortunately, `` Poised For Violence '' was not the happiest vehicle with which to make the point.

** Atlas III was a US launch vehicle ( 2000 – 2005 )

Around 500 BCE, following the Achaemenid conquest of Mesopotamia under Darius I, Old Aramaic was adopted by the conquerors as the " vehicle for written communication between the different regions of the vast empire with its different peoples and languages.

Henry Ford was the first to master the moving assembly line and was able to improve other aspects of industry by doing so ( such as reducing labor hours required to produce a single vehicle, and increased production numbers and parts ).

The basic APC design was substantially expanded to an Infantry fighting vehicle ( IFV ) when properties of an armoured personnel carrier and a light tank were combined in one vehicle.

The only vehicle with the qualities of an assault gun to be fielded after the removal of the M50 and M56 from service within the US military was the M551 Sheridan.

It is important, however, to remember that the Sheridan was not developed as an assault gun, but as a light reconnaissance vehicle.

An example of the development of tank destroyer technology throughout the war are the Marder III and Hetzer vehicle, that were very different in spite of being based on the same chassis: Marder was straightforwardly an anti-tank gun on tracks whereas Hetzer traded some firepower ( its Pak 39, designed to operate within the confines of a fully-armored fighting compartment, fires the same projectiles from a reduced propellant charge compared to Marder's Pak 40 ) for better armor protection and ease of battlefield concealment.

Eliminating the turret also allowed the vehicle to carry thicker armor than would otherwise be the case, although sometimes there was no roof ( or merely a strip of canvas ) to keep the overall weight down to the limit that the chassis could bear.

It became the single most-produced armored fighting vehicle of Nazi Germany throughout the war, and was employed in infantry support and offensive armored operations as well as in the defensive anti-tank role.

The StuG III was the most-produced German armored fighting vehicle of any type built during the war years, with some 9, 400 examples built from January 1940 through March 1945.

Image showing shock waves from NASA's X-43A hypersonic research vehicle in flight at Mach 7, generated using a computational fluid dynamics algorithm. On September 30, 1935 an exclusive conference was held in Rome with the topic of high velocity flight and the possibility of breaking the sound barrier.

Joseph-Armand Bombardier was a mechanic who dreamed of building a vehicle that could " float on snow ".

The Ski-doo was originally called the " Ski-Dog " because Bombardier meant it to be a practical vehicle to replace the dogsled for hunters and trappers.

Tank and vehicle production was a constant problem for Germany ; indeed, late in the war many panzer " divisions " had no more than a few dozen tanks.

The game was given a large amount of advance publicity in the comics, with story lines often revolving how the characters each acquired his / her vehicle.

Despite the setbacks, Chaplin was soon writing a new film script, The Freak, a story of a winged girl found in South America, which he intended as a starring vehicle for his daughter, Victoria Chaplin.

Charles realised he was using poetry as a vehicle for his sense of humour, and progressed into stand-up comedy.

The vehicle was designed to boost to 28 km altitude and glide a distance of 280 km, but test flights in 1934 and 1936 only reached an altitude of 500 meters.

Possibly the most notorious such vehicle was the former Soviet TMM bridging truck that could carry and launch a 10 meter bridge that could be daisy-chained with other TMM bridges to cross larger obstacles.

A notable example of this type of armoured bridging vehicle was the Churchill Ark used by the Allies in the Second World War.

Factories of motor vehicle producers like Fiat, Renault and Karsan, as well as automotive parts producers like Bosch, Mako, Valeo and Delphi have been active in the city for decades.

For example drive straps are now commonly employed to transfer torque as well as lift the pressure plate upon disengagement of vehicle drive.

weapons laboratory, as well as a custom-built battle van, constructed by the Wakanda Design Group with the ability to change its color for disguise purposes ( red, white and blue ), and fitted to store and conceal the custom motorcycle in its rear section with a frame that allows Rogers to launch from the vehicle riding it.

Flower Films has gone on to produce the Barrymore vehicle films Charlie's Angels, 50 First Dates, and Music and Lyrics, as well as the cult film Donnie Darko.

The vehicle leans into the turns on the ground, to impart the feeling of being ' flown ' on the ground as well.

This generally requires the rear of the vehicle to be extensively altered ; commonly, the rear roof is cut away from the front windows back and all interior parts are removed from the rear as well.

A weapon that destroys a track will do significantly more damage to a wheeled vehicle ( such as destroying the axles in which case the vehicle will have to be towed away as well ).

The original Jeep vehicle that first appeared as the prototype Bantam BRC became the primary light four-wheel-drive vehicle of the United States Army and Allies during World War II, as well as the postwar period.

Intended as a prestige picture for Warner Bros. as well as a major commercial vehicle for Demme, it instead became a troubled production due to the conflicting visions of Demme and star Hawn.

Additionally, because the entire Space Shuttle system, including ground and launch vehicle assets, was designed to work together as a closed system, and the specifications did not change, all of the certified systems and components served well in the roles for which they were designed.

Depending on the rules of the class, many types of open-wheelers have wings at the front and rear of the vehicle, as well as a very low and virtually flat undertray that helps achieve additional aerodynamic downforce pushing the car onto the road.

This inefficiency indirectly affects gravity losses as well ; the vehicle has to hold itself up on rocket power until it reaches orbit.

The flight marked the first time that a human entered outer space, as well as the first orbital flight of a manned vehicle.

This survey enables the ( government ) to estimate the likelihood of victimization by rape, sexual assault, robbery, assault, theft, household burglary, and motor vehicle theft for the population as a whole as well as for segments of the population such as women, the elderly, members of various racial groups, city dwellers, or other groups.

While BMW sells far fewer V12-engined 7-Series vehicles than V8 versions, the V12 retains popularity in the US, China, and Russia, as well as maintaining the marque's prestige in the luxury vehicle market segment.

RTS games make a habit of giving a vehicle a " health bar " that generally allows it to survive even powerful single shots, but each hit reduces its health by some amount, allowing a high volume of rifle fire to knock out a well armored tank.

The weakness of the systems include potential developments in missile design such as radar or IR decoys, which would drastically reduce their chance to intercept a missile, as well as technical challenges such as dealing with multiple missiles at once and designing a system that can cover a vehicle from any angle of attack.

Organic particles result from vehicle emissions, long-range transport from urban areas, and forest fires, as well as from VOCs emitted by vegetation in the surrounding forests.

Nitrates, carried in from urban areas, stationary sources, and vehicle emissions ; as well as black carbon from forest fires and vehicle emissions, also contribute to a lesser extent.

This method allows for greater flexibility in operation, as well as removing the need for a single immensely powerful launch vehicle.

The vehicle manual will indicate the proper pattern for tightening as well as a torque rating for the bolts.
