T6 155mm 45 CALIBRE TURRET by Denel's LIW . It's mounted on a T72 for the Indian Army

That is an T6 turret, but not on an T-72 hull and this combination has an official designation.

What a strange little thing!  Although if it actually got hit by anything bigger than .50 cal I dont think that armour will help at all...

Ironduke,

How about I send you a few bucks for a CDRom, shipping, and a coffee/beer/rum as appropriate to your tastes?  Drop me a pm with an address if you'd like to go that way, otherwise, maybe we can find someplace with some temporary web storage so you can upload the info, and I can download it?

Hey, I got one!

I hope that I'm attaching an image here. If not, I'll pass the baton to someone who knows what they're doin'.

Hey, I got one! ...

No takers? Okay, it was the Inducol Aymara from Colombia ... more or less a simplified version of the Brazilian EE-11 Urutu. Prototypes only, I think.

If anybody's interested, try http://www.defesa.ufjf.br/fts/Aymara.pdf

Anyone sitting on something more engaging? I pass the torch.

Man, it's been quiet!

That one was harder than I thought. Initially I thought French because of the turret. A bit of searching and I came up with the Brazillian EE-17 EE-18 Sucuri Tank Destroyer

 

[Mud]

That's the one, I had never heard of it before today....

 

[Danjanou]

Me neither, Ok I'm up but I'm at work so will have to wait until I'm home and have access to my research stuff to find something to stump you guys with.

 

[larry Strong]

That is a Panhard/AMX turret though isn't it?

 

[Danjanou]

Yup probably built under license in Brazil.

 

[ironduke57]

Easy, but funny. What have we here?

(The driver of the lower tank was probably not happy at that moment that he has no escape hatch.)

(Tank porn doesn´t count. ;D )

[ironduke57]

Right. Said it´s easy.

I don't have an alpha-numerical designation for this thing, so the name is good enough.
