Steyr 4k 7fa AMC81
My guess would be Greek...cause of the pretty blue bus.

 

[BernDawg]

Sho nuf!  The Greeks call it a Leonidas II.  The floor is yours.

Game on!

M84- Yugoslavian. 

 

[LIKELY]

No sir!

Large Road Wheels; 'Live' Track; Engine Exhaust on Left side; 12.5 mm on turret; Thermal Jacket on Main Gun; looks like spare Fuel Drum brackets on rear hull; looks like large bin on back of turret, characteristic of T-72..........T-72.

 

[LIKELY]

George,,,,You are bang on.

I know the M84 is a derivative but this one was from Chechnya....

 

[George Wallace]

Another easy one for those LRR guys:

 

[AmmoTech90]

SA-11 Gadfly surface to air missile.

The title of the photo gave it away...Buk

Edit: Not a SA-17 because of the longer fins.

 

[George Wallace]

More careful with file names now...... ;D

Thought a first a weird MT-LB, but too many road wheels.
Then I remembered the 2S1 based on it but streched.  This would be ACRV, command and recce vehicle designed to support it.  But this one looks like it's got an auger on the top, so maybe it's an engineer varient of ACRV?  Could be an antenna of somesort too for EW...

Everybody knows what this is, but I thought it was a pretty amazing photo anyway.  Some impressive skill on the pilots part.

Taken in Aghanistan, on some random hill.

 

[George Wallace]

Good photo.  It hs been posted with the story in another topic already.

THIS IS A TEST.  Do not name this photo for I have already named it "Panzer 002"


Thank you for your patience


(PS: Yes, I know, it's a Leopard C2 MBT)

 

[BernDawg]

So, George, is it an ACRV or what?

 

[George Wallace]

As I'll be gone for the next 48 hours or so.........it is a CP for the TOR Radar systems (auxillery vehicles for the SA 15 Gauntlet ).


TOR CP

 

[BernDawg]

Thanks George.  I'll dig up a pic unless someone beats me to it.  ;D

 

[BernDawg]
