Name This Photo!!! - The AFV Recognition Thread

[zipperhead_cop]

Okay, try this one.  Although it isn't a photo, but a pretty good drawing:

 

[Teddy Ruxpin]

It's an OMC Casspir (Mk III) APC - South African.  The vehicle comes in a variety of types, but this is the basic one.  They've been around for a while...the triple M1919s suggest that this is an early picture.

 

[zipperhead_cop]

Got it, but I had it as a Casspir MPV (Mine Protected Vehicle) from India. 

 

[Teddy Ruxpin]

The old MGs give it away.  The South Africans have sold the vehicle to a few countries, including India.

I think there needs to be a master list of what Vehicles have been covered.  I just noticed that the Type 89 Tank Destroyer I posted had been previously used on page 17 or 18

I don't think it matters if we double up occasionally.  After this many posts it's hard to avoid and people come and go on here so could easily miss it the first time.

My 5 cents worth (accounting for inflation)

[LIKELY]

Wow! Someones an insomniac....or too much free time.

(neatness is the sign of a sick mind)

 

[rmacqueen]

Hmmm, reminds me of another thread.  You know you're addicted to Army.ca when...

 

[Teddy Ruxpin]

Back on track, I think I'm up...

 

[Jay4th]

How dare you refer to the M1919 mg as old.  Just for that I will NOT identify this vehicle until you refer to the it as the VENERABLE old M1919.

 

[Teddy Ruxpin]

Right...the VENERABLE old M1919... 

Do you know what the vehicle is?  ;D

 

[warrickdll]

Leonidas (Greek produced version of the Austrian Steyr 4K 7FA).

Already listed?

 

[Mud]

Hey Viss that's a very impressive list!

  By the way in case anyone was curious #148 (UAZ 469) was a modification made by the Uruguayan Army known as the Aperea (Brazilian guinea pig) and is used by that country's 15th Mechanized Infantry Battalion

cheers

Leonidas (Greek produced version of the Austrian Steyr 4K 7FA).

Already listed?

My bad, it was.  I checked the list, but missed it.

 

[Viss]

I think Iterator is up to bat in having to post a new picture since he was the first to guess the picture correctly, that is unless Teddy gets another turn since the Steyr 4K 7FA was already on the list. I don't really mind who posts a picture first, because the whole idea is to have fun with it right?

Should I continue to modify the list so that it is updated periodically as people continue to post pictures?

On a side note, the trend of the thread has been to post pictures of only armoured fighting vehicles but the topic of the thread is "Name this Photo!!!". Just a thought. For those out there who aren't so keen on their AFV, other pictures like that of the Mil-Tec BDU 172 Tropical Flectar trousers, the the various commando units or the various weapons etc. may be just as useful in terms of broadening everyone's general knowledge of military related things and also in throwing curveballs to those out there who may be known as "AFV gods"

Just a thought, but keep putting those pictures up! Its quite fun!

I wouldn't want Teddy Ruxpin to pass a fault . It's a do-over.
