Topic: Type 88


  
  K1 Type 88 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The K1 (or Type 88) is a main battle tank in use with the South Korean ground forces.
It was introduced to the Republic of Korea Army (ROKA) in 1988, hence its name Type 88.
The Type 88 series will remain in service with the ROK Army well into the future, as the ROK Army is in the process of disposing of the older American M47, M48 and M60 battle tanks and slowly replace them with the newer K1A1 and the upcoming XK2.

 Type 96 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Type 88 tank is unique in that unlike the rest series of Chinese tanks, this series actually includes versions from different families of earlier tanks.
Type 85 further developed in to Type 90, but besides a few test vehicles for evaluation, this tank was not adopted by People's Liberation Army, instead, the tank became the export model for Pakistan which developed MBT-2000 (Al-Khalid) tank based on Type 90.
However, the result was disappointing because China had yet to master the technology: although the power plant was somewhat adequate enough in the humid climate in southern China, the reliability did not meet the standard in arid climate in northern China and the harsher desert climate in Pakistan.

 Type 88 Sniper Rifle | Ground Forces | SinoDefence.com   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-01)
The Type 88 (also known as QBU88) 5.8mm semi-automatic sniper rifle was developed in the mid-1990s as a member of the PLA’s second-generation 5.8mm small arms family.
The Type 88 development began in 1989 and the rifle entered PLA service in 1996 to replace the older Type 79/85 (Dragonov SVD) 7.62mm semi-automatic sniper rifle.
Strictly speaking, the Type 88 is, by modern standards, a military marksman rifle rather than a dedicated professional sniper rifle.

 Type 88 Main Battle Tank | Ground Forces | SinoDefence.com   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-01)
The Type 88 is China’s second-generation indigenous main battle tank (MBT) developed from the Type 80 MBT prototype introduced in the early 1980s.
The Type 88/80 was based on the first generation Type 59 and Type 69 MBT designs, but was upgraded with Western technologies, including a NATO standard 105mm rifled gun, British fire-control system, and German diesel engine.
The Type 88 is a hybrid of the Chinese tank design with heavy Soviet influenced and Western technologies.

 Type 80
The Type 80's all-welded hull is divided into three main compartments with the driver at the front, fighting compartment in the center, and the engine and transmission at the rear.
According to IISS the Chinese had roughly 900 Type 88 A/Bs in the inventory in 2002, and in 2003 the number had increased by roughly 100 for a total of a 1,000.
The Type 80-II is virtually identical to the basic Type 80 except that it has a slightly greater combat weight and a greater overall length.

The Type 88 and the SVD are functionally the same (though the zoom sight picture differs).
The Type 88 marksmen rifle or QBU-88 is a gas operated, semi-automatic rifle that was intended to fire semi-automatic at greater distances than other assault rifles rather than as soley a sniper rifle.
The Type 88 was made for heavy loading of a 5.8 x 42 mm cartridge but can also fire standard 5.8 mm ammunition.

 1980/81 Lotus Type 86/88 Windtunnel Model Spec Sheet
The Type 86 prototype and Type 88 racecar were designed to circumvent the ban on sliding skirts and also isolate the driver from the aerodynamic download.
Based on the Type 81, it's aluminum honeycomb monocoque with conventional suspension formed the primary chassis, carrying the driver, fuel tanks, and drivetrain, all relatively softly suspended.
Both the the primary and secondary chassis were constructed in carbon composite, with three carbon beams of the secondary chassis running through the primary chassis and all the aero downloads of the secondary chassis being fed directly into the uprights.

 RFC 1615 (rfc1615) - Migrating from X.400(84) to X.400(88)
Provided that implementations of the 88 standards do not try to place restrictions on the values that may be present, any future extension will be relayed by these implementations when appropriate (i.e., when the extension is not critical), thus providing a painless migration to new versions of the standards.
A DDA with type "X400-88" is used, whose value is an std-or encoding of the address as defined in RARE Technical Report 2 ([4]), "Mapping between X.400(1988)/ISO 10021 and RFC 822".
If mixed vintage 88 and 84 Management Domains (MDs) are created, the routing loop detection rules, which specify that a message shall not re-enter an MD it has previously traversed, require that downgrading is performed within that mixed vintage MD. That MD therefore requires at least one MTA capable of downgrading from 88 to 84.

 photo.net Forum: Differences between Polaroid Type 88 & 100 Film
So the film type 88 for colour or 87 for fl and white film was more than fine and there was no need to spend an extra 30% or more money for the type 100 films which simply had a lot more fl around the 6x6 area.
You see, the print size of the type 80 is 8.5cm x 8.5cm whereas the print size of the type 100 is 8.5cm x 11.5cm.
The series 100 Polaroid films had one advantage: Type 105 - Type 108 - Type 107: a colour film, an ordinary fl and white film and a second type of fl and white film which gave a negative also.

 | Kievaholic Klub - FAQ - Kiev 88 |
The more complex gearing of the Kiev 88 which is needed to give the interchangeable film magazine design, requires a greater degree of precision to be implemented correctly.
The Kiev 88 was designed to have a metal shutter, and cloth does not have the same physical properties as metal.
The most common route taken is to change the mount on a Kiev 88 body, recessing it into the body and converting it to Kiev 60 breech lock mount (as in the Kiev 88CM) or to a Pentacon 6 bayonet "twist-and-lock" mount (Kiev USA and Hartblei).

 Messier Object 88
M88 is one of the eight galaxies found on March 18, 1781 by Charles Messier in the Coma-Virgo region, and described by him as "nebula without stars," "one of the faintest" objects, and similar to M58.
This bright member of the Virgo Cluster of galaxies is nicely symmetrical and of multiple-arm type.
Type Ia Supernova 1999cl occurred in M88 on May 28, 1999, was discovered on May 29, 1999 at magnitude 16.4 and reached magnitude 13.6..13.8 (June 5, 1999).

Not to be confused with the "Small Type 88" fuze typically used with the 50mm "Knee Mortar".
While the term "Gun and Howitzer-Mortar" is used to describe this fuze in U.S. identification manuals, it requires centrifugal force (spin) to arm it, which a mortar does not provide.
U.S. TM9-1985-5 indicates this was made in two types, with differences in the strength of the internal latch spring safety inside, but outwardly identical.

 Turbo Blow Off Valves   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-01)
Each is made of durable cast and billet aluminum frame and the valve to diaphragm ratio provides performance that cheap piston types cannot offer.
Being of a pull type valve structure, the SSQV can not physically leak under any level of boost because boost pressure also keeps the valve closed against its seat.
The SSQV is actuated by pressure alterations only, not by the rate of pressure or vacuum in the line, which ensures a quick valve response and complete closure during idle.

 Modern Firearms - QBU-88 / Type 88 sniper rifle
The QBU-88 rifle (also sometimes referred to as Type 88 rifle) was the first weapon of the newest generation of Chinese small arms, chambered for proprietary 5.8x42mm ammunition.
Adopted in the late 1980s, the QBU-88 is, by the modern sense, not a true sniper rifle - it is more of designated marksman rifle, intended for aimed semiautomatic fire at ranges beyond the capabilities of standard infantry assault rifles.
QBU-88 rifle is equipped with open, diopter type adjustable sights, mounted on folding posts; it also has a short rail which can accept telescope or night sight mounts.

Now, this design does not look any different from the SBD 88 and I find it rather unsual that we have a gauge when we are not monitoring anything.

This requires that all European R&D MHS 88 MTAs capable of interworking with 84 systems shall be able to map the value of "common-name" DDA in OR-Names received from 84 systems to the 88 standard attribute extension component common-name, and vice versa.
As the transition topology recommended for the European R&D MHS is to never use 84 transit systems between 88 systems, it is possible to improve on the P2 originator downgrading and resending scenario.
In particular, all European R&D MHS 88 MTAs should generate reports containing extensions copied from the subject message and route reports through the DL expansion hierarchy where appropriate.
