North American Aviation T-6 Texan on ühemootoriline täiustatud treeninglennuk, mida kasutatakse Ameerika Ühendriikide armee õhujõudude (USAAF), Ameerika Ühendriikide mereväe, kuninglike õhujõudude ja teiste Briti Rahvaste Ühenduse õhujõudude pilootide koolitamiseks Teise maailmasõja ajal ja 1970. aastatel. Põhja-Ameerika lennunduse disainitud T-6 on olenevalt mudelist ja tegutsevast õhuväest tuntud mitmesuguste nimetuste all. Ameerika Ühendriikide armee õhukorpus (USAAC) ja USAAF nimetasid selle AT-6-ks, Ameerika Ühendriikide merevägi SNJ-ks ja Briti Rahvaste Ühenduse õhujõud Harvardiks, mille nime järgi seda kõige paremini tuntakse väljaspool USA-d. Pärast 1962. aastat nimetasid USA väed selle T-6-ks. See on endiselt populaarne sõjalinnulennuk, mida kasutatakse lennunäituste demonstratsioonidel ja staatilistel väljapanekutel. Seda on korduvalt kasutatud ka erinevate Jaapani lennukite, sealhulgas Mitsubishi A6M Zero simuleerimiseks filmides, mis kujutavad Teist maailmasõda Vaiksel ookeanil.

RiikUSA
TüüpKaubaveok

Fotogalerii M923 Guntruck, This medium cargo truck of the 5 ton category, is representative of today’s generation of logistical vehicles of the U.S. Forces. It entered service in the early eighties. The M-923 has an extremely sturdy structure and excellent off-road features, which are necessary to secure the flow of material to the front line combat units. Based on this chassis many versions have been produced: wrecking trucks, tank trucks, mobile maintenance and communication trucks. The A-1 version is characteristic because of its large off-road tires which have earned it the nick-name “big-foot”. During its operational use, and in particular in the most recent military campaigns in which it was employed as Iraq and Afghanistan, the “Big Foot” has often been modified with the addition of “home made” protections to reduce the damages caused by the fire of light weapons. However, the personalization of the vehicles, made “on field” by the crews, were possible thanks to the excellent platform offered by-M-923 trucks.

Album 51 Jalutuskäigu fotod Schwimmwagen

2018. VW 166 Schwimmwagen oli Saksa amfiibauto, mida kasutati Teise maailmasõja ajal. Selle kerge maastikuauto 4X4 režiim on aktiivne ainult esimesel ja tagasikäigul. Kuna selle kliirens on üsna kõrge ja see masin saab kasu rullidega iselukustuvatest diferentsiaalidest, on see masin tõeline kõikehõlmav. Schwimmwageni kasutatakse peamiselt side- või luuresõidukina ning haavatute evakueerimise kiire vahendina.

Un embout d’hélice relevable permet de facilement basculer en mode amphibie, la propulsion dans l’eau se faisant uniquement en marche avant. Avec plus de 15000 unités construites entre 1941 et 1944 la Schwimmwagen est surement un des véhicules amphibie les plus produits de tous les temps.
