Combat Vehicle 90 (CV90)) is a family of Swedish tracked combat vehicles designed by FMV, Hägglunds and Bofors during the mid-1980s and early 1990s. The Swedish version of the main infantry fighting vehicle is fitted with a turret from Bofors that is equipped with a 40 mm autocannon, although export versions use 30 mm and 35 mm autocannons. Developed specifically for the Nordic sub-arctic climate, it has very good mobility in snow and wetlands while carrying and supporting eight (later versions were reduced to six) fully equipped soldiers. Other variants include Forward Observation, Command and Control, Anti-air, Armoured Recovery, Electronic Warfare and so forth. It is still produced and being developed further by BAE Systems Hägglunds AB.

das Spähpanzer Luchs (English: Lynx) is a German 8×8 amphibious reconnaissance armoured fighting vehicle (Spähpanzer) in service since 1975 with the German Army, who used 408 in their armoured reconnaissance battalions.

The all-wheel drive Luchs made by Thyssen-Henschel (now: Rheinmetall) is well armoured, has an NBC protection system and is characterized by its low-noise running. The eight large low-pressure tyres have run-flat properties. At speeds up to about 50 km/h, all four axles can be steered.

Fotogalerie eines Royal Aircraft Factory BE2A, The Royal Aircraft Factory B.E.2 was a British single-engine tractor two-seat biplane which was in service with the Royal Flying Corps (RFC) from 1912 until the end of World War I. About 3,500 were built. Initially used as front-line reconnaissance aircraft and light bombers; variants of the type were also used as night fighters. Like many warplanes since, the B.E.2 was retained in front-line service long after it had become obsolete, for want of a suitable replacement. After its belated withdrawal it finally served as a trainer, communications aircraft and on anti-submarine coastal patrol duties.

Album mit 16 Fotos walk-around von einem »SKP M-42»

Fotogalerie eines SKP M-42, Terrängbil m/42 KP (Tgbil m/42 SKP/VKP), meaning “Off-road vehicle 42” with a secondary designation of “Scania, Bodywork: Armoured” or “Volvo, Bodywork: Armoured”, was the Swedish army’s first armoured personnel carrier, developed as a stop-gap measure during World War II. In 1941, when tanks were organized into a unit of their own, it was clear there was a desperate need for a troop carrier able to both keep up with the tanks and provide protection against artillery shrapnel and small-arms fire. Due to the war there were no international suppliers to buy from, so the only option was to develop a domestic solution. AB Landsverk designed an APC consisting of a chassis from a regular army lorry equipped with an armoured shell.

NachfolgerTatra T815

Fotogalerie eines Tatra 813 Kolos, Tatra T813 was a truck produced in Czechoslovakia by the Tatra company. The first prototype already built in 1960 utilized existing Tatra T138 assemblies in 4×4 full-time all-wheel drive, which was also another first for Tatra. After the initial trials however the designers decided to develop and expand the concepts onto 8×8 all-wheel-drive all-terrain vehicle. The basis of the design thus became the modular chassis of T813. Successor is the Tatra T815 model.

Album von 23 Fotos walk-around von einem »Merkava Howitzer Sholef»

Fotogalerie eines Merkava Howitzer Sholef, Two prototypes of Sholef (“Slammer”, Hebrew slang for “Gunslinger”) 155 mm self-propelled howitzer with automatic loading system were built by Soltam in 1984–1986. The 45-ton vehicle had a long 155 mm gun barrel giving a range of 45+ km. Using GPS, inertial navigation, and an internal fire control computer, it was also capable of direct fire while on the move. It never entered production. The Slammer is a heavily armored artillery gun mounted on a modified Merkava Mk 1 chassis. Many of these vehicles are Merkava Mk 1 that were retired after the Merkava Mk 2 and Merkava Mk 3 came into service. The Slammer has a long 52-caliber gun barrel that allows +10% range. Reload speed may be decreased to 1 for one minute every 10 minutes through use of an automatic loader. Ammunition racks are large. The Slammer is ready for autonomous operation (without an FDC) if the target’s location is known within 15 seconds of a halt, using GPS, inertial navigation, and an internal fire control computer. The Slammer 155 mm self-propelled howitzer is based on a modified Merkava MBT chassis fitted with a new welded steel turret, designed by Soltam Systems. Development commenced in the 1970s. The project was considered of high national priority and incorporated the newest technological developments. Instead the Israeli Defense Forces selected an upgraded version of American M109 howitzer.

Der 25pdr SP, verfolgt, Küster war ein selbstfahrendes Artilleriefahrzeug des Zweiten Weltkriegs. Er basierte auf kanadischen Versionen des amerikanischen Panzerfahrgestells M3 Lee und M4 Sherman, die in Kanada als Ram and Grizzly in Produktion gingen. Als die Sherman-Produktion in den USA expandierte und die Versorgung kein Problem mehr darstellte, wurde 1943 beschlossen, die kanadischen Produktionslinien auf die Produktion des Sexton umzustellen, um der britischen Armee eine mobile Artilleriekanone mit ihrer Ordnance QF 25-Pfünder-Kanonenhaubitze zu geben, die eine 87,6 mm (3,45 Zoll) 11,5 kg (25 lb) HE-Granate oder eine panzerbrechende Granate abfeuern konnte. Es fand Verwendung in der kanadischen und britischen Armee sowie in zahlreichen anderen britischen Empire- und assoziierten Streitkräften. Kurz nach dem Krieg wurden eine Reihe von Grizzly und Sextons nach Portugal verkauft, die sie bis in die 1980er Jahre verwendeten.

Erstflug1. Oktober 1947
Gebaut9860

das North American F-86 SabreSabrejet war ein transonisches Düsenflugzeug. Produziert von North American Aviation, ist die Sabre vor allem als der erste gefegte Flügeljäger der Vereinigten Staaten bekannt, der der ähnlich geflügelten sowjetischen MiG-15 in Hochgeschwindigkeits-Hundekämpfen um den Himmel des Koreakrieges (1950–1953) entgegenwirken konnte. Die F-86 gilt als eines der besten und wichtigsten Kampfflugzeuge in diesem Krieg und wird auch im Vergleich zu Jägern anderer Epochen hoch bewertet. Obwohl sie in den späten 1940er Jahren entwickelt wurde und Ende der 50er Jahre veraltet war, erwies sich die Sabre als vielseitig und anpassungsfähig und setzte sich als Frontjäger in zahlreichen Luftstreitkräften fort, bis die letzten aktiven Einsatzbeispiele 1994 von der bolivianischen Luftwaffe eingestellt wurden.
