SAAB B17
Land	Sverige
Rolle	Bombefly, rekognosering
Første flytur	18. mai 1940
Bygget	323

Den Saab 17 was a Swedish bomber-reconnaissance aircraft. The project was initiated in response to a request in 1938 from the Swedish air force for a reconnaissance aircraft that could replace the Fokker S 6. Design work began at the end of the 1930s as the L 10 by ASJA, but after the merger with Saab in 1939 it was renamed Saab 17. The wings were reinforced to make it possible for use as a dive bomber. Since there was a shortage of engines the aircraft were flown to their destination, where the engines were removed and returned for use by the next delivery. The aircraft was also made in three versions with different engines.

TKrupp Kfz.81 Protze
Land	Germnay
Rolle	Artilleri traktor / Utility lastebil
Produsert	1934–1941
Bygget	7000

L 2 H 43 og L 2 H 143 "Krupp-Protze” (unofficial designation) was a six-wheeled 6×4 German truck and artillery tractor produced between 1934 and 1941 and heavily used in World War II. It was powered by a 4-cylinder, 55 hp or, from 1936, 60 hp Krupp M 304 petrol engine. Its main purpose was to tow artillery, especially the PaK 36, and transport motorized infantry. This vehicle was extensively used on the Eastern Front, during the North African campaign and in France and Sicily. The “Krupp-Protze” was of relatively advanced design. Its fuel consumption was relatively high (24 Litres / 100 km on road) in comparison to the comparable Opel Blitz 1.5 t truck (16.5 liters / 100 km, produced 1938 – 1942). Total production was about 7,000 units.

Type A Midget Submarine
Land	Japans rike
Klasse	Kō-hyōteki-klasse ubåt
periode	Andre verdenskrig
Bygget	Unknow

Den Type A Ko-hyoteki (甲標的甲型 Kō-hyōteki kō-gata, Target ‘A’, Type ‘A’) class was a class of Japanese midget submarines (Ko-hyoteki) used during World War II. They had hull numbers but no names. For simplicity, they are most often referred to by the hull number of the mother submarine. Thus, the midget carried by I-16-class submarine was known as I-16’s boat, or “I-16tou.” This class was followed by: Type B (甲標的乙型 Kō-hyōteki otsu-gata), Type C (甲標的丙型 Kō-hyōteki hei-gata), and Type D (甲標的丁型 Kō-hyōteki tei-gata), the last one better known as Kōryū

PT boat
Land	Norge , Norge
Klasse	Destroyer-eskorte i kanonklasse
Lansert	20. februar 1944
Identifikasjon	DE-766

En PT båt (forkortelse for patruljetorpedobåt) var et torpedobevæpnet hurtigangrepsfartøy (MTB) brukt av United States Navy under andre verdenskrig. Den var liten, rask og billig å bygge, verdsatt for sin manøvrerbarhet og hastighet, men hemmet i begynnelsen av krigen av ineffektive torpedoer, begrenset bevæpning og relativt skjør konstruksjon som begrenset noen av variantene til kystfarvann.

Den Lynx rekognosering kjøretøy (manufacturer’s name: M113½ Command and Reconnaissance Vehicle, abbr. M113 C&R) is a United States-built tracked reconnaissance armoured fighting vehicle, which was employed by the armed forces of the Netherlands and Canada. Dutch vehicles were exported in the 1990s to Bahrain[1] and Chile, according to SIPRI 35 and 8 vehicles respectively. The M113½ was developed in 1963 as a private venture by FMC Corp., the manufacturer of the M113. It competed with the M114 but the US Army chose the M114 for production. The design was then offered to foreign buyers and gained the name Lynx when purchased by Canada.
