PapelTanque de cañón antiaéreo

El Flugabwehrkanonenpanzer Gepard ("tanque de cañón antiaéreo Cheetah", más conocido como Flakpanzer Gepard) es un cañón antiaéreo autopropulsado alemán autónomo y con capacidad para todo tipo de clima (SPAAG). Fue desarrollado en la década de 1960 y desplegado en la década de 1970, y ha sido actualizado varias veces con la última electrónica. Constituyó una piedra angular de la defensa aérea del ejército alemán (Bundeswehr) y de varios otros países de la OTAN. En Alemania, el Gepard fue eliminado a finales de 2010 para ser reemplazado por "SysFla", un sistema de defensa aérea móvil y estacionario que utiliza el misil LFK NG y el nuevo sistema de armas MANTIS. La plataforma móvil de SysFla probablemente se basará en el GTK Boxer.

Variante holandesa : Search radar: X band, 15 km range Tracking radar: X/Ka band, 13 km range The Dutch version was officially called the PRTL (PantserRupsTegenLuchtdoelen translating to “ArmourTrackAgainstAirtargets”), pronounced as “pruttel” (meaning ‘to sputter’) by the soldiers. The Dutch series version was made public through a photograph of a vehicle from a C-Company, the first to be equipped with the new weapon. Traditionally all Dutch vehicles in a company have names beginning with the company designation letter and this vehicle happened to have the individual name Cheetah painted in bold type on its turret. Inevitably the international press assumed “Cheetah” was the Dutch name for their Gepard version and this mistake found its way into most armour publications on the subject. In 2000 the Dutch military authorities, tired of constantly having to explain all this and considering “pruttle” was hardly a martial name anyway, conformed themselves to common error and made “Cheetah” the official designation, when the system was upgraded.

The RM-70 (raketomet vzor 1970) multiple rocket launcher is a Czechoslovakian army version and the heavier variant of the BM-21 Grad multiple rocket launcher, providing enhanced performance over its parent area-saturation artillery system that was introduced in 1971 (but the NATO designation is M1972). RM-70 was developed in Czechoslovakia as a successor for the RM-51, achieving initial operational capability with its Army in 1972. The launcher was being produced in Dubnica nad Váhom (Slovakia). Originally, it was sold to East Germany. After the Soviet Union collapse and the split of Czechoslovakia into the Czech Republic and Slovak Republic, it was sold to several states in Africa, America, Asia and Europe.

The MOWAG Piranha is a family of armoured fighting vehicles designed by the Swiss company MOWAG (since April 2010 the name has changed to General Dynamics European Land Systems – Mowag GmbH). Five generations of vehicles have been produced, manufactured by Mowag or under licence by other companies, and variants are in service with military forces throughout the world. Piranhas are available in 4×4, 6×6, 8×8, and 10×10 wheel versions. There are several variants within these versions, giving different degrees of armour protection and several kinds of turret, for use in a variety of roles.

Official German designation: Sturmgeschutz (StuG) 8.8cm Pak43/2 (Ferdinand/Elefant) The StuG 8.8cm was based on the unsuccessful Porsche Tiger chassis fitted with a heavily armoured superstructure in the front and a mounted 8,8cm Pak 43/2 L/71 gun. A total of 90 vehicles were produced; they first saw combat in the Battle of Kursk (Operation Citadel). It was built in 1943 under the name Ferdinand, after its designer Ferdinand Porsche, but was soon renamed. After the Battle of Kursk, the remaining 48 vehicles were pulled out of service and given an overhaul. This included a ball-mount machine gun in the front along with a commander’s cupola. The name Elefant was soon decided upon. The vehicle was received with mixed feelings. It provided good protection with its thick armour but was severely unreliable in its mechanics due to the use of non-standard parts. Nevertheless, the Ferdinand/Elefant might well have been the most successful tank destroyer employed during the war, with a kills to losses ratio of approximately 10:1.

Pansarbandvagn 301 (pbv 301), was a Swedish armoured personnel carrier used by the Swedish Army. It was a typical “battle taxi”, armed with a 20 mm Bofors gun from the scrapped J21-fighters and with room for transporting 8 fully armed soldiers. The pbv 301 was an interim solution, built on the chassis from the obsolete Stridsvagn m/41, introduced in 1961 and removed from service in the late 1960s and early 1970s when the replacement pbv 302 came into use. The pbv 301 replaced the open-topped KP-bil armoured car as the armoured troop transport in the Swedish Army.

Galería de fotos de un Douglas F4D-1 (F-6A) Skyray, The Douglas F4D Skyray (later redesignated F-6 Skyray) was an American carrier-based supersonic fighter/interceptor built by the Douglas Aircraft Company. Although it was in service for a relatively short time and never entered combat, it was notable for being the first carrier-launched aircraft to hold the world’s absolute speed record, at 752.943 mph,[1] and was the first United States Navy and United States Marine Corps fighter that could exceed Mach 1 in level flight. It was the last fighter produced by the Douglas Aircraft Company before it merged with McDonnell Aircraft and became McDonnell Douglas. The F5D Skylancer was an advanced development of the F4D Skyray that did not go into service.

el Northrop F-5A/B Freedom Fighter y el F-5E/F Tiger II forman parte de una familia de cazas ligeros supersónicos, inicialmente diseñados a finales de la década de 1950 por Northrop Corporation. Siendo más pequeño y simple que contemporáneos como el McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II, el F-5 cuesta menos tanto para adquirir como para operar, lo que lo convierte en un avión de exportación popular. El F-5 comenzó su vida como un programa de caza ligero financiado con fondos privados por Northrop en la década de 1950. El equipo de diseño envolvió un pequeño caza altamente aerodinámico alrededor de dos motores Compactos y de alto empuje General Electric J85, centrándose en el rendimiento y el bajo costo de mantenimiento. Aunque está diseñado principalmente para el papel de superioridad aérea del día, el avión también es una plataforma de ataque terrestre capaz. El F-5A entró en servicio a principios de la década de 1960. Durante la Guerra Fría, más de 800 fueron producidos hasta 1972 para aliados estadounidenses. Aunque la USAF no tenía ninguna necesidad reconocida de un caza ligero, adquirió aproximadamente 1.200 aviones de entrenamiento Northrop T-38 Talon, que se basaban directamente en el F-5A.
