That might be the 1/75 scale 'official' models that were contracted for.

I don't for a second think that the US is going to put those marines on Kharg island. They'll go for one or more of the small islands in the straits first.

It was reported as about 47K..... I'm thinking it's going to hit just over 50K and that'll be it. Interesting thing - with the case in front of the SCC, there will be a strong consideration for an extension to the Amnesty until the ruling is passed.

Cool! Is it a 1/144 scale 3D printed model...? ;-)

Pretty sure it's a single 21 shot launcher.

C-Navy - who's that?

Concur - there are egregious errors in that image - you've touched on most of them. I'm aware that my 'model' of the T26 is pretty close. I was given some 'that doesn't go there' info from a couple of folks.... CIWS is definitely a nope....the RAM is the right type (21 cell) but wrong...

Starting to look the part - details left to print and add, along with Decals. The little one will hopefully be done by next week.

If you open it, I'll help make their brisket sandwiches. :-)

Someone was using it to build SkyNet? Bring on the terminators...I'm done with this timeline. LOL

They were done up as some sort of meat filled egg-roll-ish thing. I recall them being OK for taste and because of how the meat was prepared (finely minced/chopped) it wasn't tough at all.

Good 3 AM Food - fresh bacon, a couple slices of toast and some raspberry jam.....yum. I also had the privilege of eating in the mess in Camp Orange in Holland - they served horse meat at one point. Wasn't actually as bad as I thought it'd be.

Porkbarrel/2%GDP solution - buy land back, build airport again....

There was also that time I was duty at A-Block as a LS Roundsman back in the day....as I'm in line to get my meal for supper, I turn around and there's a cockroach crawling up the wall. I point it out to the cook - he shrugs...so I squish it and he proceeded to get MAD at me for killing it...

Worst meal? We had a PO2 on ship who thought it was his job to save the Crown a few pennies....so he made peanut butter sandwiches as a main meal line choice one night. No jam. Just peanut butter. Ugh.
