Khand-e Posted August 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 Type 91 improved IFV variant of the Type 90 series of export APC, excellent little workhorse vehicle. Hopefully it attracts some sales here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khand-e Posted August 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 MZD-2 Dual Purpose cluster munition designed for use in various delivery systems, this has actually seen combat in the form of various insurgent and rebel groups in the Middle East mainly. With a multi tool for scale. And an AA battery. (the one on the right is an M-42) Inside showing the HEAT cone within the plastic casing holding the 3mm steel BBs Fragments and shrapnel from a recovered casing after being used in 122mm rocket systems by Hezbollah, Circa 2006.

LoooSeR Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Type 89 TD/SPG. Collimatrix 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Collimatrix Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Eeenteresting. You can see it has a front-mounted engine like an SPG, and a huuuueg turret, but also that it has a thermal shroud and muzzle reference system like a dedicated direct-fire system would.

LoooSeR Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 AFAIK that thing mounted near muzzle is laser for training games. Type 89 is a TD that was made to counter hordes of Soviet T-72s. It is a primarly direct fire vehicle with 120 mm gun (later China accepted 125 mm guns for MBTs). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Collimatrix Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Is it adapted from an APC? Why does it have the front-mounted engine?(You can see the frontal drive sprocket on the background vehicle) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoooSeR Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 I don't know, Calli. Although it have IFV-like armor - around 50 mm in the frontal parts. Type 89 is like combination of Merkava, Gvozdika/Akatsia and Sprut-SD, modern SU-152 Taran :-D Rear door. Strange vehicle for modern days.

Collimatrix Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 That does make me think it's built on an APC chassis. Reminds me of CV-90-120. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoooSeR Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Chassis of that TD looks familiar, but i don't remember where i saw it. Type 89 internal layout. Ammunition is in same places as with Merkava tanks (Siman 4 have several rounds in turret bustle) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoooSeR Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 SU-152 Taran for comparison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Collimatrix Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Interesting; the last road wheel swing arm of the type 89 is reversed. I wonder why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoooSeR Posted August 17, 2015 Report Share Posted August 17, 2015 China prepares to secretly invade Beijing. More of the Type 89 TD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoooSeR Posted August 17, 2015 Report Share Posted August 17, 2015 This is ZBD 08, looks like BMP-3 backwards - engine is in the front and "Troichatka" in the ~rear part of hull. Kurganets with unmanned version of BMP-3 turret will probably look similar to ZBD 08. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
