Fotogalerii 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.

Fotogalerii 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 23 fotod «Merkava haubitsast Sholefist»

Fotogalerii 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.

25pdr SP, jälgitav, Sexton oli II maailmasõja iseliikuv suurtükisõiduk. See põhines Ameerika M3 Lee ja M4 Shermani paagi šassii Kanadas ehitatud versioonidel, mis jõudsid Kanadas tootmisse Ram ja Grizzly nime all. Kui Shermani tootmine USA-s laienes ja pakkumine ei olnud enam probleem, otsustati 1943. aastal vahetada Kanada tootmisliinid Sextoni tootmiseks, et anda Briti armeele mobiilne suurtükiväepüstol, kasutades nende Ordnance QF 25 naelapüstolit-haubitsat, mis võib tulistada 87,6 mm (3,45 tolli) 11,5 kg (25 naela) HE-kesta või soomust läbistava kesta. See leidis kasutamist Kanada ja Briti armees, samuti paljudes teistes Briti impeeriumis ja nendega seotud jõududes. Vahetult pärast sõda müüdi mitmed Grizzly ja Sextonid Portugalile, kes kasutasid neid 1980. aastatel.

2007 Põhja-Ameerika F-86 Sabre, mida mõnikord nimetatakse Sabrejetiks, oli transooniline reaktiivhävituslennuk. Põhja-Ameerika lennunduse toodetud Sabre on kõige paremini tuntud kui Ameerika Ühendriikide esimene pühkitud tiiva võitleja, kes suutis võidelda sarnaselt tiibadega Nõukogude MiG-15-ga kiiretes koeravõitlustes Korea sõja (1950–1953) taevas. F-86, mida peetakse üheks parimaks ja kõige olulisemaks hävituslennukiks selles sõjas, on samuti kõrgelt hinnatud võrreldes teiste ajastute võitlejatega. Kuigi see töötati välja 1940. aastate lõpus ja see oli 50-ndate aastate lõpuks aegunud, osutus Sabre mitmekülgseks ja kohanemisvõimeliseks ning jätkas eesliini võitlejana paljudes õhujõududes, kuni Boliivia õhujõud 1994. aastal viimased aktiivsed operatiivsed näited pensionile jäid.

Fotogalerii Vabariik F-84 Thunderjet, The Republic F-84 Thunderjet was an American turbojet fighter-bomber aircraft. Originating as a 1944 United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) proposal for a “day fighter”, the F-84 first flew in 1946. Although it entered service in 1947, the Thunderjet was plagued by so many structural and engine problems that a 1948 U.S. Air Force review declared it unable to execute any aspect of its intended mission and considered canceling the program. The aircraft was not considered fully operational until the 1949 F-84D model and the design matured only with the definitive F-84G introduced in 1951. In 1954, the straight-wing Thunderjet was joined by the swept-wing F-84F Thunderstreak fighter and RF-84F Thunderflash photo reconnaissance aircraft.
