  Murad III - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Murad III ( July 4, 1546 – January 15, 1595) was the sultan of the Ottoman Empire from 1574 until his death.
His accession marks the definite beginning of the decline of the Ottoman power, which had only been maintained under Selim II by the genius of the all-powerful grand vizier Mehmed Sokollu.
For, though Sokollu remained in office until his assassination in October 1579, his authority was undermined by the harem influences, which with Murad III were supreme.

The "devþirme" : Murat II and Mehmet II the Conqueror developed the "devþirme" (established by Murat I), a system of recruiting young Christian males between eight and seventeen years old, who were going to be converted to Islam and owe absolute allegiance to the sultan.
First attempts towards modernization were made, from the end of the 18th century and during the 19th century, by enlightened sultans such as Selim III (1789-1807) who opened new military schools and reorganized the military with the help of French instructors, but failed to replace the Janissaries who overthrew him.
The deposition by Selim III of the pro-Russian governors of Moldovia and Walachia led to the Russo-Turkish War of 1806—1812.

After a recall about the present situation concerning the standardization in the field of IM, or MURAT in France, the different regulations followed by the main Forces are analysed, to better describe the possibilities offered by introduction of IM or MURAT into service.
This question reflects in concrete fashion the concern of the armed forces which, as well as a reduction of potential losses from hazards in wartime, want to see an easing of logistical constraints, especially in respect of munition storage.
