  1. Might have been posted already, but I like this video. I personally wasn't aware of what kinds of innovations in portable weapons technology have been made in the last few years.
  2. Happy New Year, everyone! Here are some vehicles I never see much mention of: the Turtle Series. Full credit goes to Tank and AFV News for finding this is Armor Magazine: https://tankandafvnews.com/2017/07/10/from-the-vault-the-turtle-series-of-armored-vehicles/
  3. I've never heard of the D 739! Is this all that's known about the gun?
  4. Some people know about the French ERAC (Engin de Reconnaissance Amphibie de Combat), not to be confused with Engin de Réaction Anti-Chars: It's an amphibious light tank from the early '60s, but apparently it didn't end with this vehicle. New photos have been added somewhat recently on chars-francais.net of a second, albeit similar vehicle: No additional information is revealed, but the mounted gun is quite obviously larger than on the first one. Both vehicles are labeled "ERAC 105mm", yet the website claims the gun to be the 90mm DEFA D 914.
  5. Ed Francis has recently started a fantastic Youtube channel going over British vehicle design and development called Armoured Archives. He has plenty of unseen gems in his videos, including this bad boy: I'll let his work speak for itself: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCIgjPAYn253oyWLsYgiHDw
  6. Finally joining the forum after years of lurking! Here's something I couldn't find other than from old and obscure source: Spartan.
