I do love the internet! Still a Pantsir is pretty easy (how many truck mounted SAM systems are there out there?).  ;D Here's a good one. MG

I am the Pantsir-S1 and I come from Russia. The UAE has ordered 50 of me. I am armed with two 2A72 30mm cannons and twelve 57E6 missiles. MG

RBD - Is that an SA-12 Bill Board radar? MG

Well, yeah, I knew that. I recognized the second Afghan from the left in the background. His name is Nematullah... ;D MG

Turkish Army (Commando Bde)? The vehicle behind Buddy is an Otokar APC which is why I think they're Turkish. MG

Mine did. And I also found that, like most boots, they became much more comfortable after a couple of weeks of wear. MG

I have a set of the boots you describe and I love 'em. Mine are the Goretex/Thinsulate/Vibram versions and I usually only wear them when hiking in the fall/winter but I have to say that they're outstanding. Yes, they are stiff, but I like them that way. Cheers MG

That Leo 2 looking-creature is a Japanese Type 90, nescafe? Edit: Oops. Don't drink and do AFV recognition!

Guns don't kill people, Rick Hillier kills people There is no theory of evolution. Just a list of animals Rick Hillier allows to live. Outer space exists because it is afraid to be on the same planet as Rick Hillier Rick Hiller can lead a horse to water AND make it drink. Rick Hiller can...

Oh, give me a break! We all know that Bravo Coy is/was by far the best Rifle Coy in the entire CF. Granted, Charles Commando came close for a couple of years but everyone knew Bravo were the big dogs. Bravo Company was almost as good as Mor Pl but of course you can't compare the two (it's like...

If I had to guess, I'd say that we were looking for funding under the NATO Security Infrastructure Program. See here http://www.nato.int/docu/handbook/2001/hb0905.htm It would be about bloody time we got something out of a NATO fund! MG

What in the name of Me are you talking about!? Why would our C-17s be flying out of Tampastan? If you were trying to be funny and I just didn't get it, I apologize. MG

I think it's plain for all to see what the problem is and I don't think all journalists are to blame. You get people like Christie Blatchford, Matthew Fisher and Graeme Smith who actually have the parts to travel to Kandahar and see for themselves what is happening. They are almost unanimously...

Really? There are some people a LFTEU who might disagree with you on that one George. I can't divulge too much but let's just say you would be surprised by the 25mm penetrating power. MG
