The Ordnance Quick-Firing 17 pounder (or just 17 pdr) was a 76.2 mm (3 inch) gun developed by the United Kingdom during World War II. It was used as an anti-tank gun on its own carriage, as well as equipping a number of British tanks. It was the most effective Allied anti-tank gun of the war. Used with the APDS shot it was capable of defeating all but the thickest armour on German tanks. It was used to ‘up-gun’ some foreign-built vehicles in British service, notably the Sherman Firefly, giving British tank units the ability to hold their own with their German counterparts. In the anti-tank role it was replaced by the 120 mm BAT recoilless rifle after the war. As a tank gun it was succeeded by the 20 pounder.

Le Panzerkampfwagen IV (PzKpfW IV), souvent appelé Panzer IV était un char d’assaut utilisé par l’Allemagne nazie durant la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Conçu initialement comme char d’appui-feu, avec un canon de 75 mm court, pour le Panzerkampfwagen III, il finit par remplacer ce dernier quand les chars alliés devinrent trop protégés pour celui-ci. Rééquipé avec un canon long antichar, le PzKpfW IV fut le principal char allemand pendant la seconde partie de la guerre avec plus de 9000 exemplaires produits et donna naissance à de nombreuses versions..

En bok fra Osprey Publisering boken «M3 Lee/Grant Medium Tank 1941–45 – NEW VANGUARD 113» .

Den svært vellykkede "stop-gap" M3 medium tanken ble designet i 1941, og da tilstrekkelige tårnstøpeanlegg ennå ikke var klare, brukte M3 en uvanlig bevæpningskonfigurasjon etter mønster av en fransk stridsvogn. Britiske lend-lease-krav førte til utformingen av en andre tårntype med den amerikanske versjonen kalt Lee og den britiske versjonen Grant. Den kunne trenge gjennom Panzer-rustningen, og dens eksplosive ildkraft var utmerket for å håndtere tyske anti-tank våpen. Denne boken dekker design, utvikling, service og varianter av et kjøretøy som var ryggraden i mange styrker fra andre verdenskrig.

Den Universell transportør was a fast, lightly armed vehicle developed by the British Army to carry infantry across ground defended by small-arms fire, specifically the Bren light machine gun, hence the name ‘Bren Gun Carrier’. This name would stick with the Universal Carrier and all of its future variants. This book details the Carrier, which was employed in a number of roles including carrying ammunition and towing anti-aircraft guns and trailers. All Allies used the Universal Carrier extensively during practically every World War II campaign. By the war’s end, the Universal Carrier had proved itself to be an invaluable and successful cross-country vehicle that was both agile and fast for its time.

Une dokumentasjon signée Osprey Publisering le livre «Imperial Japanese Navy Aircraft Carriers 1921–45 – NEW VANGUARD 109» .

The Imperial Japanese Navy was a pioneer in naval aviation, having commissioned the world’s first built-from-the-keel-up carrier, the Hosho. Throughout the 1920s and 1930s, it experimented with its carriers, perfecting their design and construction. As a result, by the time Japan entered World War II and attacked the United States at Pearl Harbor in 1941, it possessed a fantastically effective naval aviation force. This book covers the design, development and operation of IJN aircraft carriers built prior to and during World War II. Pearl Harbor, Midway and the first carrier vs carrier battle, the battle of the Coral Sea, are all discussed.

Album 65 photos du «BM-13 Katioucha»

Den Katyusha (en russe Катюша), diminutif russe de Catherine, est le surnom donné par les Soviétiques à un lance-roquettes en rafales de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Ce nom vient de la chanson traditionnelle Katioucha. Surnommé par les Allemands « orgue de Staline » (Stalinorgel) à cause de ses caractéristiques, elle consistait en un camion tirant des roquettes en rafales. Plusieurs batteries de Katiouchas étaient généralement alignées, dans le but de créer un tir de barrage et de destruction très important. Leur formidable puissance de feu était néanmoins altérée par une forte imprécision du tir. Il existe deux versions de ce lance-roquettes en rafale, le BM-8 de 82 mm et le BM-13 de 132 mm (BM pour Boïevaïa Machina, « véhicule de combat »). Chaque camion comportait entre 14 et 48 lanceurs. Les roquettes du système BM-13, appelé RS-132 (RS pour Raketnyi snaryad, « roquette auto-propulsée ») étaient d’une hauteur de 1,8 m, de 132 mm de diamètre et d’un poids de 42 kg. Les roquettes étaient lancées par un propulseur solide à base de nitrocellulose disposé dans le moteur en acier de la roquette. La roquette était stabilisée par des ailerons cruciformes en tôle d’acier. L’ogive explosive, pouvant être à fragmentation, était hautement explosive et d’un poids d’environ 22 kg. La distance de tir des Katioucha était d’environ 8 km.

Une dokumentasjon signée Osprey Publisering le livre «British Anti-tank Artillery 1939–45 – NEW VANGUARD 98» .

The rapid development of the tank as an offensive weapon following its introduction in World War I gave artillery theorists cause for concern during the 1920s and 1930s. By the beginning of World War II anti-tank guns had been developed, initially at around 37mm and 2 pounds in weight of shot. By the end of the war, monster anti-tank weapons were being developed, able to penetrate an armour thickness of up to 200mm at a range of 1,000 yards. This book explores the British efforts to keep up in a war of development, which saw heavier and more powerful guns eventually replaced by experimental ideas in an attempt to stop the German onslaught.

It was the only tank destroyer deployed during World War II actually based on their requirements for speed and firepower. This book examines the development of this vehicle, the controversies over the need for high-speed tank destroyers, and its actual performance during World War II. Special emphasis is placed on examining its performance in its intended mission. Coverage also includes derivative vehicles of the M18 such as the M39 armored utility vehicle.

A documentation from Osprey Publisering the book «German Destroyers 1939–45 – NEW VANGUARD 91» .

Den German destroyer fleet of World War II consisted of nine classes: the Diether Von Roeder Class, the Leberecht Maas Class and the wartime classes Z23, Z35, Z37, Z40, Z43, Z46 and Z52. These vessels, though fewer in number than the British destroyer fleet, tended to be much bigger and more powerful than their allied counterparts. They served their country well in operations in the Channel, North Sea, the Far North and in the rescue of civilians from East Prussia during the final days of the war. This title describes their design, development and operational use from the fjords of Narvik to the final days of the war.
