Name This Photo!!! - The AFV Recognition Thread

[big bad john]

#1 Pucara  We shot up enough of them in the Falklands.  I posted the photo's of them on the site.

 

[nsmedicman]

Yep ;D...thought that might be the easy one....

Top:  Pucara - Argentine CAS aircraft (although this one looks like one of those captured by the RAF in the Falklands)

Middle:  I'll have to snoop a bit more.  Some sort of UAV.

Bottom:  Kaman HH-43B Huskie USAF

 

[Teddy Ruxpin]

My guess for the middle pic:  BQM-145A Medium Range UAV?

The RM Captured 5 Pucara's intact enough to be shipped back to the UK.  All others were destroyed.  This is the paint scheme of the RAF operated AC.

#2 appears to be a Global Hawk....but it's not.

Hunter?

 

[nsmedicman]

Not sure....sorry....

 

[nsmedicman]

One more.....

I am thinkin' that Recce By Death has a certain advantage here.  "AFV GOD".

Hunter?

It isn't - it's a Teledyne, as nsmedicman has posted...

As for the helicopter, it appears to be an Italian A129...

(of course, as I'm busily modifying my post, RbyD beat me to it!)  :'(

Here's one:

A129 Mangusta light attack helicopter

As for the helicopter, it appears to be a Eurocopter Tiger varient - the top photo in Spanish Army service...

Teddy....Eurocopter:

 

[Teddy Ruxpin]

You're right, and I caught my error (and mispost of my next photo), but you beat me to it!  The Italian for "Army" on the side of the aircraft was a bit of a giveaway!  LOL

 

[Franko]

Here's one for you....

And I'm no good with missles unless they are attached to the launch vehicle....IE FROG 7, SCUD B, Gadfly etc....

 

[Teddy Ruxpin]

T-55

And it isn't a missile!

And it isn't a missile! 

Well done....no rad scoop on the rear.

New one....

 

[nsmedicman]

Augusta A 129 "Mangusta" or "Mongoose"

 

[Teddy Ruxpin]

Mine, for the record, was a Canadair CL-219 drone...in German service.

....and for a dismounted flare now....
