Type 12 Frigate
Type 12 frigate refers to several ship classes, most commonly the three ship classes of the Royal Navy designed during the 1950s and constructed during the 1960s. * The first Type 12 frigates, designed as convoy escorts, were later named the . Six operated in the Royal Navy, with one loaned to the Royal New Zealand Navy, and two built for the Indian Navy. * The design of the Type 12 Modified (Type 12M) or was optimised towards anti-submarine warfare and fleet escort duties, and fitted with the Sea Cat missile system. Nine were built for the Royal Navy, two for the Royal New Zealand Navy, and three (as the 'President class') for the South African Navy. * The third class, designed as an all-purpose warship, was known as the Type 12 Improved (Type 12I) or the . The class was made up of three 'batches'; the main differences between each batch being variations in propulsion machinery and weapons outfit. 26 were built for the Royal Navy, some of which later saw service in the navies of C ...

Belgian State Railways Type 12
The Belgian State Railways Type 12 was a class of steam locomotive A steam locomotive is a locomotive that provides the force to move itself and other vehicles by means of the expansion of steam. It is fuelled by burning combustible material (usually coal, Fuel oil, oil or, rarely, Wood fuel, wood) to heat ...s for express passenger service, introduced in 1888. They were the successors of the Belgian State Railways Type 1 locomotives. Construction history The locomotives were built by various manufacturers from 1888 to 1897. The machines had an outside frame with the cylinders and the Walschaert valve gear located inside the frame. The locomotives used three-axle tenders with a capacity, as well as two-axle tenders with . References Bibliography * * * * * * External links * ETH-Bibliothek Zürich, BildarchivS.A.

Datsun Type 12
The 1933 Datsun Type 12 was a small car produced by Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. Description The 1933 Datsun Type 12 was a small car produced by Nissan under Datsun Datsun (, ) was a Japanese automobile manufacturer brand owned by Nissan. Datsun's original production run began in 1931. From 1958 to 1986, only vehicles exported by Nissan were identified as Datsun. Nissan phased out the Datsun brand in Marc ... marque (which was used by DAT for their line of small cars). After the DAT corporation was absorbed into Nissan, these cars continued to be produced, and the original model name was maintained. The Type 12 was basically similar to the earlier 1932 Datsun Type 11, but had a larger engine. Japanese laws at that time did not require a license to drive automobiles with small-displacement engines. DAT/Nissan produced the Type 11 as their entry into this market. The original limitation for this class of vehicles was 500 cc displacement engines, but that was changed to 750 cc ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Porsche Type 12
The Porsche Type 12 was a German project to develop an "Everyman's automobile" (''Auto für Jedermann'') for Zündapp. Fritz Neumeyer, then owner of Zündapp, ordered Ferdinand Porsche to design and build the prototype in 1931. Eventually, two saloons, and one drophead coupé were built. All of those cars were lost during World War II, the last one in a bombing raid in Stuttgart in 1945. The Type 12 is considered an important early step in the development of the original Volkswagen. A replica of the Type 12 is on static display at the '' Museum Industrielkultur'' in Nürnberg. Comparison with contemporary concepts The Type 12 was an early example of the aerodynamic and rounded designs that came somewhat in vogue in the 1930s, developed concurrently with Mercedes-Benz's 120H, and ahead of Tatra's second V570 prototype, and DKW's F2-based, one-off rear-engined streamline prototype — both in 1933. In production cars the style was typified by the 1934 Chrysler and DeSoto A ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
NMBS/SNCB Type 12
The NMBS/SNCB Type 12 was a class of steam locomotives built in 1938–1939 for the fast lightweight Ostend boat trains operated by the National Railway Company of Belgium. Design and construction The class was designed by engineer Raoul Notesse, based on the Canadian Pacific Railway's successful 4-4-4 "Jubilee" semi-streamlined locomotives of 1936/7, but also incorporated the ideas on streamlining of André Huet. The type 12 locomotives were produced for the Belgian Consortium of Locomotive Construction, by Société anonyme John Cockerill at Seraing, near Liège. The locomotive bodies were fully streamlined except for openings to provide access to the valve gear and the crankshaft. The design included inside cylinders but outside valve gear to reduce oscillation at speed. Operation The class was designed for the fast, relatively lightweight, boat trains on the journey between Brussels and Ostend to be capable of speeds of . They were also used on Brussels–Liège e ...
