To get the ball rolling on my question, I know of two other Native names that have been used for naming transport: Chinook helicopter and the Winnebago motor home. But this blatant disrespect of Native Tribal names is not exclusive to transport; the insult has been extended to several makes of tents. (Tesco Direct Spring/Summer 2008 catalogue pgs 75-77).

Lichfield Navaho 2 person tent

Lichfield Apache 3 person tent

Lichfield Apache 4 person dome tent

Lichfield Cherokee 4 person tent

Lichfield Cheyenne 5 person tent

Lichfield Arapaho DLX 6 person tent

Lichfield Comanche 8 person tent

It beggars belief how these manufacturing companies see nothing wrong with denigrating the names of Native Tribes. Evidently, stealing their country wasn't enough. This is a classic case of adding insult to injury.

What problem did rome engineering help to overcome?

Roman engineering helped overcome the challenges of urbanization and infrastructure development in ancient Rome. By creating advanced systems like aqueducts for water supply, roads for transport, and monumental buildings, they facilitated efficient movement of goods and people. This engineering prowess enabled the growth of cities, improved public health, and supported the vast Roman Empire's administration and military logistics. Ultimately, it laid the groundwork for modern engineering principles and urban planning.


What was the name of the helicopter used in the Vietnam war?

The U.S. Army's main transport was the UH-1 Huey (officially the "Iriquois"), models B thru H. We used the AH-1G Cobra as a gunship, an armed escort in the later years, along with some UH-1Bs and Cs, converted transport models. My recollection is that there were some "Mike" models (UH-1M) entering the inventory in the later years, too. In the scout function, the inimitable OH-6 "Loach" (officially the "Cayuse", but universally THE Loach, from LOH- Light Observation Helicopter) and the OH-58, the military version of the ubiquitous Bell Jet Ranger. The Army also had some CH-54 Skycranes as the big vertical lift machines. Earlier in the war, the Army used piston-engined H-34s and H-21s as transports, and Oh-13s and OH-23s in the scout role. I believe there was some attempt to use the CH-37 as a transport, but there were very, very few of them. The Air Force, Navy and Marines also used helicopters. Each of these services had variants of the Huey. The Air Force also had: the H-43 Husky; the HH/CH-3; and the HH-53. These last two were the big Sikorskies, famous as the "Jolly Green Giant" and "Super Jollys", which Navy also used. The Marines added to the following to the list: the H-34, most famously the D model, the "Dog"; and the H-46, both also used by the Navy. Yes, they were,


What mode of transportation did all English companies have to have in order to transport their goods to Europe?
