anclajes, puntos de anclaje Explanation: Hi Barbarella, En jerga militar, un "hardpoint" tiene la siguiente definición: A hardpoint is a mount where parts (often weapons) are externally mounted to a vehicle. This term is most often used when referring to aircraft. For example, missiles, bombs, electronic countermeasures, gun pods, and drop tanks are mounted to fixed-wing aircraft wings via hardpoints. The release method for a bomb stored on a hardpoint involves the detonation of a shotgun shell within the hardpoint that provides the necessary push for a clean release. Whereas most missiles are rail-launched from a hardpoint. A typical fighter aircraft has a number of hardpoints including ones for bombs, launch racks for missiles, and plumbed pylons dedicated for fuel stores. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_point Por extensión, se puede entender que son puntos de anclaje, como en el contexto siguiente: container ship cargo stowage adapter — Serves as the bottom-most SEASHED and precludes the necessity of strengthening of tank tops or the installation of ***hard points on decks***, thereby accelerating container ship readiness. See also container ship; SEASHED; stowage. (JP 4-01.6) http://www.gulfknight.net/GME/Dictionary/C.htm En el ámbito de un campamento, imagino que tanto las tiendas como la oficinas podrán ser de lona y que necesiten una serie de anclajes a la tierra. Creo que se podría decir tanto "anclajes" como "puntos de anclaje". Suerte y sonrisas, Álvaro :O) :O) |
