Fallout Re: The FASTBOAT Patch page.

Hope to post my input on the T-64 M17 later tonight. I used for my research the latest T-64 BULAT (Probably same as you sent me.), OPLOT and OPLOT-M (As you sent about the SEP, it won't be an OPLOT-M either.).

About SADF, with all the "fits and starts", it was the culmination of seven years of research that started very confusedly bouncing the OOB against the data, think INDIA here.

Current MBT status as of this writing:
https://www.defenceweb.co.za/securit...defence-force/

Armour
191: 177 Olifant 1A/B (Of which 133 in storage) and 26 Olifant Mk 2 (for training)
(The above website is a dedicated all Africa Defense site.)
(This site is missing the Olifant Mk 2B.)
http://www.army.mil.za/equipment/wea...ant_equipm.htm

(The above is missing the Olifant 1B.
It is very much there and improved as submitted, around 2010 I believe. (Along with the above "missing" tank which also had a ton of references to support their existence, you hopefully will have a better understanding of why I walked away from this SADF issue over that time period I mentioned above.)

Gotta get that "military" haircut (Flat top for my three hairs and a hot towel shave, it's almost heaven!?!)

Regards,
Pat
