No matter the cause or issue and the reason for; someone out here will ALWAYS be my Marine Buddy.

As "Pride Runs Deep" so does "Semper Fidelis".

From the lift (160lb. sandman.) and 20ft+12s/2mi. at 27m flat. I live to work another year. I wonder if it'll be harder @ 65!?! :rolleyes:

Regards,
Pat

It would appear from reports and photos , that Ukraine has at least one ABV

Given what I've seen reported about the Russian defenses they could use a battalion of them.

Apparently, the Russians had a substantial (shed-load) stockpile of mines.
It would be interesting to know how far back in age they go. Some of them could easily be (possibly..... ) ones made before they stopped needing to use them in quantity in WW2

One thing the Soviet/Russian government/military is known for is never disposing of anything (other then people) that has the slightest use. Wouldn't be surprised to see them pull out a MIG-17.

This is not MBT related but it doesn't fit any catigory we used so I used the most popular thread

"Rhino (Oshkosh) and Ofek (Merkava) command vehicles seen side by side. "

Re: MBT's
 
The problem is this....... I am guessing the Rhino (Oshkosh) is the one I was asking about but a Google search does not show anything that looks like that at all and this......

https://www.israeldefense.co.il/site...A4%D7%A72.jpeg

is an ofek and there isn't one in that photo I posted. That MIGHT be one ( maybe ) in the second tanknet photo on the right side but it's not clear that is what it is

https://static.timesofisrael.com/www...1/DSC02460.jpg

The large vehicle DOES look like it's built on an Oshkosh truck chassis

https://www.defencetalk.com/wp-conte...AS-B-truck.jpg

and ELbit makes something very, very similar for the Swedes

https://defence-industry.eu/wp-conte...med-Forces.jpg

https://defence-industry.eu/elbit-to...-armed-forces/

So it seems it's an Elbit and Elbit Systems Sweden AB IS a subsidiary of Israeli company Elbit Systems ( which used to be IMI )
