Pzkfw IV B  The white cross was only used in the Polish campaign, they were found to be great aiming points and were re-designed after the campaign.

Actually the Pz ll was not called the "Luchs" but was used as the basis for the Luchs but these were not built in large numbers

 

[Black Watch]

here one...

B52?

 

[Black Watch]

the second one looks like the Koeingtiger...

 

[Franko]

OK....MRM....B52, I'd know that cockpit anywhere.

The "VAB" is a Fennek.

There is a Stumgashuts....or Stug III there.

I'd say that the larger panzer is a "Mouse" but I'm not 100% on that.

As for the "Centurian-like" photo with the jammy cam, would it be a Chieftain in Iraqi service?  Just a wild guess....(I don't even know if Pre-Saddam Iraq even had British stuff!)

Von Garvin,
  Iraq used Soviet Block as well as French eqipment but, the Iranians had Cheiftains.

The tank with the jammy cam is I think a Vickers mark I Indian army. Second German tank, again I think is a VK1600 Leopard

 

[toglmonster]

OOP! typo, It's an VK1602, pardon my fat fingers.

 

[vonGarvin]

That's right, the Leopard!
The Mk IV is a model "A".  And yes, used in the Polish Campaign.  The crews added black paint to the white crosses in order to reduce their aid to enemy gunners.

Well done.  It was redesignated the Vijayanta by India

Remember folks.....one or two pics at a time please.... ;D

Have you figured this one out yet?

HINT: It is a Leopard...but what variant, who owns this one, and what is the designation of it in the army that it serves here?

German in Macedonia 2001

 

[vonGarvin]

Would it then be a Leo 2A5?

 

[Franko]

Would it then be a Leo 2A5?

Leo 2 A4 at the most.

A5/ A6 have the sloped turret aplique armour IIRC.

[Koenigsegg]

yuppa...the A4 was the last batch produced before they upgraded the armour (and made it look cool).

 

[nsmedicman]

Yup....it's a Leo 2A4....what country is it from, and what is that army's designation for it?

 

[Franko]

Strv 121 aka Leo 2S?

 

[nsmedicman]

Good try....a little southwest

 

[Koenigsegg]
