An old Marine Pilot sat down at a Starbucks, wearing his old USMC flight suit and leather jacket. He ordered a cup of coffee. As he sat sipping his coffee, a young woman sat down next to him. She turned to the pilot and asked, 'Are you a real pilot?' He replied, 'Well, I've spent my whole...

As Manfred Powell said in Lara Croft: Tomb Raider: "My ignorance amuses me!" Very good one from Ironduke. Here is where I lean right now. We already know it is a Swedish design.  On top of that, I see a mantlet and long 75mm gun from a German Panther. SWE got one from France apparently in...

MCG has it.  This is the Aussie version of the Mk II - the "Special." Only four were made. It had the ball mounted MG on the right side. MCG is up! Gasplug  :salute:

I think we need to get away from German panzers and have fun with a tank that was produced in only 4 samples. Gasplug  :salute:

It's one of the GVT experimental vehicles (GVT 01-05). Some have called this one the Leopard 3 but that is disputed in other literature. Gasplug  :salute:

Now this is a good one.  I am scouring my German sources but this one is still a mystery. I guessed it was German from the font of the numerals on the 3 pictures and the side-mounted MG or cannon. It looks somewhat like a Marder's. I need to look for a picture of the Kampfpanzer 90 or the...

I think I will reserve judgment until I read the report, but 45,000 reservists need a better role than "individual augments" to Reg Force units. Bring back Corps '86!!!!! Ha! My  :2c:. Gasplug  :salute:

Wooki, After three years in Naples (2007-2010) and into my second year in Berlin, I guess I can give you a few pointers.  Naples is always dependent on the exact position you get on the Peace Establishment AND on where you live around the NATO Base.  I was lucky; I had 3 good jobs in three...

Congrats, Old and Tired!  :nod: It is indeed an FV4101 Charioteer. This is one of the 56 that were sold to Austria in 1956. It is now in the Panzergarten of the Army Museum in Vienna. I guess I should have cropped it a bit more to make it more challenging. >:D Your turn! Gasplug  :salute:

Here goes. One from my own collection of weird and wonderful "widgets"... Gasplug  :salute:

It's a Swedish MC 103 V Glufs Glufs mine roller.  They used a modified S tank to make it.... :salute: Gasplug

vG, Well done!  It's actually even older than the BBC feed according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hwacha. I took this picture in Seoul in Aug 2006 in the Deoksugung Palace. Your turn. Gasplug  :salute: Edit: for too fast on the Post button!!!!

Let's try something different!  ;D Gasplug :salute:

Good tricky shot, luckily the numerals on the sides are different than ours... It's the NM142 (Rakettpanserjager) from Norway. Gasplug :salute:

I guess you won't miss many of the Germans! ::) You got it even with the Hetzer chassis... Your turn. Gasplug :salute:
