I've decided to decrease amount of "separately photographed" pics I take, as it takes simply too much time (~doubling it).

1-10 issues and supplements of JDW 1994 (vol.21) done from cover to cover

...14.07.20

https://cloud.mail.ru/public/9dEX/djuwzbp4V/_tmp

Two dozen issues of JDW from 1990, one issue of IDR from 1975, four from 1991 and 11 from 1990 plus supplements, two (out of two stored at RSL) issues of 1998 Jane's Intelligence Review plus supplement,

along with several pages from Military Technology issues from 2000 and 2001, and pages from Jahrbuch der Wehrtechnik Vol.2, Vol.4, Vol.6, Vol.12 were photographed.

Unfortunately even basic processing (put_into_folder-rotate-delete_blurry_pages_and_doubles-rename_properly) takes too much time,

so I've skipped "rename properly" part, and, in order to avoid confusion, put most of those photos into separate temporary folder - about 7Gb or ~6-7k files.

https://cloud.mail.ru/public/9dEX/djuwzbp4V/Jahrbuch%20der%20Wehrtechnik/Jahrbuch%20der%20Wehrtechnik%2012%20(1981)

JdWT Vol.12 (which, thanks either to some glitch of my phone's memory or to me forgetting that copying several thousand small files takes a lot of time, especially on old memory card which could go as slow as 50kB/s, and removing memory card while some files were still copying, lost 28 pages, which will be fixed sometime later)

https://cloud.mail.ru/public/9dEX/djuwzbp4V/IDR/1975 vol.8/06

IDR 1975-06

https://cloud.mail.ru/public/9dEX/djuwzbp4V/JIntR/1998 (10)/

and JIntR 1998

were renamed and put into appropriate folders, though.

...16.07.20

https://cloud.mail.ru/public/9dEX/djuwzbp4V/Jahrbuch der Wehrtechnik/Jahrbuch der Wehrtechnik 6 (1971)/

Jahrbuch der Wehrtechnik Vol.6 now available from cover to cover.

Also following things were photographed and uploaded to _tmp folder:
International Defense Review 1990-12 with supplement, 1989-01, 02, 03 with supplement, 04; 
all 16 issues of Jane's Defence Upgrades 1997 (Vol.1) stored at RSL (out of 24 published)

I moved all 1990 IDR issues with all pages renamed properly (01, supplement to 02, 05 and two supplements, 06 with supplement) into temporary "a" folder.

...17.07.20

https://cloud.mail.ru/public/9dEX/djuwzbp4V/_tmp/JDUpgr/1998 (02)/

Jane's Defence Upgrades 1998 (vol.02) - 23 issues out of 24 published are stored at RSL, and were photographed and uploaded.

https://cloud.mail.ru/public/9dEX/djuwzbp4V/_tmp/International Defense Review/1989 vol.22/05/

Only one IDR issue was photographed (1989-05), and only 2/3 of it. Also uploaded.

so I've decided instead to upload it asap, "as is", with most uploaded by now, and few (in subfolders which would be available via the same link) in following couple of days. 

During following six-and-a-half weeks I've managed to put all of those images into folders, rotate them, and rename properly.

/with Moscow lifting some of COVID-related restrictions, I hope to visit RSL either during this weekend, or next one.

Since they've put a limit on number of books one can request during his visit, making photos of some books from cover to cover seems now like a preferable way to spend time there./

In the same time (later in 2015) there was this version shown.

It was shown in January of 2013, as seen for example there http://gurkhan.blogspot.com/2013/01/25.html

There are several vehicles used for parades only, with engine in front and driver and commander sitting side by side,

and then there are other vehicles used for development and testing, with engine at front- right and driver on the left - IIRC none of those ever appeared on parade in Moscow

Did you upload all photographs you took from the 1974 edition of Jahrbuch der Wehrtechnik

Yes. IIRC all photos of pages from all books are uploaded.

Still, I hope to visit RSL as soon as it opens again, so may be you can name particular remaining articles or page numbers in this book, which should be photographed first?

/...I do hope, eventually, to revisit all those books and magazines in order to make photos of all pages from cover to cover, but that seems like at least a couple years worth of weekends task, and it seems more important now to make photos of covers and table-of-contents with occasional articles which catch my attention. But, as I implied, requests are possible.

btw, AFAIK both GoogleBooks and Hathitrust 

have volumes 1-16 of Jahrbuch der Wehrtechnik scanned almost decade ago, but they would not make those available in full view untill, like, 2060s - early 2090s. Well, unless someone finds copyright holder and convinces it to give permission to show it's publications in full view before copyright expires (like with Life, Popular Mechanics, and some other magazines).

Internet Archive's Online Library could provide something much earlier, with their digital lending model, but they scan things on their own, so they are much smaller than either of first two, IIRC smth like 15 to 30 times when compared by total number of digitized books, and their digitization efforts are also seem to be much slower./

I've concluded that with my current pace of "processing" my photos of pages from some military-related magazines and books from and usually on 1950s-2010s, stored at Russian State Library, it would take months or years until finally done, 
so I've decided instead to upload it asap, "as is", with most uploaded by now, and few (in subfolders which would be available via the same link) in following couple of days.

And this one, overall closest, but still somewhat different:

Ok, it's two GCV renders, but first one is in a very bad quality

>digital design

Last time they did that (with proposals for GCV), information available to general public was very limited. IIRC there are like one single render published on GDLS proposal, and no pictures at all on SAIC-Boeing-KMW-Rheinmetall Puma-based proposal.

It was photoshopped (not only w/ ERA kit, but also by replacing gunner's sight ) back in 2013, by Wiedzmin from otvaga - discussion starting with this post and continuing on the following pages

Older Tatra 813 chassis (in principle still the same thing) was used for RM-70 MLRS or OT-64 SKOT. 

Tatra has nothing to do with OT-64 and most of its components (with the exception of its engine), OT-64 was designed by Praga-Avia using parts from their Praga-Avia S360 truck (btw, OT-64 was also designated as Avia A105 and Praga S260)(one may simply look at OT-64's double wishbone suspension, such thing was never used for any 111/12x/138/148/813/815-series Tatra AFAIK) which was developed as replacement for well-known Praga V3S, but was never put into production.

In 1988 Germany developed a concept for a tank with two crew men. In order to test whether it's possible for only two crew men to operate a tank effectively, a Leopard 1 and a Leopard 2 were modified.
