Name This Photo!!! - The AFV Recognition Thread

Just a guess, but is it a laundry unit with a ROWPU in the background?

It looks like this piece of kit http://www.army.gc.ca/lf/English/6_1_1.asp?id=734&action=comment
Private François Vézina-Paquette of the Mobile Laundry and Bath Unit transfers laundry from the washing machine to the spin cycle during Exercise PHOENIX RAM.

Yep and yep.  That was the set up in Haiti in 2004.  Had to scrub out the bleach bottles and detergent.

Over to you.
 
A driver's maintenance nightmare?        ;D

The base vehicle is fairly obvious but what's the conversion called?

Bernardini X1A2 from Brazil.

An old M3 Stuart with a new turret and 90mm gun, although I'm not too sure if the one in the picture is the -A or the A-2
 
You got it!. It's the prototype X1A1 / CC MB1 (Carro de Combate, Modelo Brasiliano 1) ... the 30 odd X1A2 / CC MB2 were  built entirely from new parts. Vehicle weighed 19 tons, had a crew of three, 90mm main gun, and a 300 hp Saab-Scania diesel. (An updated M3 with the Saab-Scania was an X1A.)

Over to you, chanman.
 
Okay, this is going to be a bit unusual (and probably contravening some of the game's rules), but I saw an acquaintence's photos and can't ID them, so I figured I'd post them here.

Whoever ID's that should go next, but game aside, I'm also wondering if anyone knows what those 'pipes' on top of this humvee are:

In case the Traditional Chinese billboards and humvee dont' give it away, the photos were taken in Taiwan
 
The top photo is the amphibious EKW M3 pontoon bridge layer.

No clue about the HMMWV "pipes". Some lucky winner out there knows the answer. ;)

Well, I suppose it's your turn again.  Maybe I'll get an answer on the 'pipes' some other time :D
 
Errr, we had the M3 a couple of days ago...

Maybe let the Hummer with pipes stand a couple of days.

Sorry about that, must've missed the previous M3.
 
Dang, you're right. :-[  Had to dig but Mortar guy posted an M3 in August 2006.

We need Viss to update the list again!
 
Errr, I'll just grab my coat now, used the M3 a couple of days ago

Yes A list of what has already been posted and sucessfully answered would be nice, as 123 pages of posts is a lot to go through to make sure something has not been posted recently, or at all
