Tank destroyer m / 43 (Pvkv m / 43) was a Swedish combat vehicles that were manufactured in 1947-48. The carriages were built on the same chassis as Strv m / 42 with the superstructure of a lvkanon m / 36. They were originally built to open up but Armétygförvaltningen upgraded them in the 1950s with the roof. 1963 was fitted wagons with sexcylidriga Scania engines from decommissioned Strv m / 41 and m / 40. The carriages were used until the late 1970s. The gearbox was a Volvo VL 420 or Landsverk S-8082.

TypeGetraceerd amfibisch transport
Productiebegonnen 1965
LichaamsbouwWaterdichte romp

De Pts is a Soviet tracked amphibious transport. PTS stands for Plavayushchij Transportyer – Sryednyj or medium amphibious transport vehicle. Its industrial index was Ob’yekt 65. Introduced in 1965, it is large, with a substantial payload of 10 tons, two to four times the capacity of the BAV 485, and better cross-country performance, at the cost of greater somewhat higher purchase costs because it is tracked. The most common model is the improved PTS-M that is powered by a 350 hp diesel engine. It has a boxy, open watertight hull, with six road wheels per side, front drive sprocket, rear idler sprocket, and no return rollers. Like the BAV 485, and unlike the DUKW, it has a rear loading ramp. The crew is seated at the front, leaving the rear of the vehicle open for a vehicle, which can be driven (or backed) in, rather than lifted over the side. To aid in facilitating this, the engine is under the floor. Propulsion in water is by means of twin propellers, in tunnels to protect them from damage during land operations.

RoleDe kanontank van het luchtafweergeschut

De Flugabwehrkanonenpanzer Gepard ("luchtafweerkanontank Cheetah", beter bekend als de Flakpanzer Gepard) is een autonoom, weersinvloedend Duits zelfrijdend luchtafweergeschut (SPAAG). Het werd ontwikkeld in de jaren 1960 en veld in de jaren 1970, en is meerdere malen geüpgraded met de nieuwste elektronica. Het vormde een hoeksteen van de luchtverdediging van het Duitse leger (Bundeswehr) en een aantal andere NAVO-landen. In Duitsland werd de Gepard eind 2010 uitgefaseerd om te worden vervangen door "SysFla", een mobiel en stationair luchtverdedigingssysteem met behulp van de LFK NG-raket en het nieuwe MANTIS-pistoolsysteem. Het mobiele platform van SysFla zal waarschijnlijk gebaseerd zijn op de GTK Boxer.

Nederlandse variant : 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 MT-LB (Russian: Многоцелевой Тягач Легкий Бронированный, Mnogotselevoy Tyagach Logkiy Bronirovannyi / light multi-purpose armoured towing vehicle) is a Soviet multi-purpose fully amphibious auxiliary armoured tracked vehicle, which was first introduced in the late 1960s. Initially, the vehicle was known as the M 1970 in the west. Swedish MT-LB converted into Pbv 401 Pbv 401 (pansarbandvagn) – modified former East-German vehicle with 7.62 mm machine guns Ksp 95 and Ksp 58.

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 302 (Pbv 302) is een Zweeds pantservoertuig met hoge mobiliteit dat is ontwikkeld om te voldoen aan de operationele vereisten van het Zweedse leger. Het werd ontworpen en geproduceerd door Hägglund en Söner in Örnsköldsvik (nu Hägglunds Vehicle AB). Het ontwerp werd in 1961 in gebruik genomen ter vervanging van de Pbv 301. De productie liep van 1966 tot 1971. Het voertuig is geüpgraded en blijft in beperkte dienst, hoewel de CV 90-serie nu het standaard infanteriegevechtsvoertuig in Zweden is, dat zowel thuis als door Zweedse troepen in het buitenland wordt gebruikt.
