Fallout Re: MBT's

Want to enjoy the rest of this evening but, I came across another tank that was on my list which I kind've felt wasn't gaining any real traction as far as getting into the game especially after the MERKAVA 4b WINDBREAKER entered service (A planned interim tank to the following.) but now that's changed!! MERKAVA 5 BARAK!! Cmon, you had to know that was coming!

One of my favorite tanks (Because I spent over half a page of revisions to it a few years ago in you know where.) the STRV 122 series appears to be getting what I believe is a NEW tank round the 120mm M339 that Israeli tanks now have.

Well, can you guess what's coming next!?!

Well I'm sure Don will at this point will agree, this would be a good time for to start watching "Viking Valhalla" personally I blame Ancestry (You know who.) for updated their DNA tech and databases, 17% Swedish!?! Someday I'll tell the story behind it from my Mom from her Grandmother during the bombing campaign over Cologne Germany.

Regards,
Pat
