TypeLastebil

Bildegalleri av en 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.

Bakkeklaringen er ganske høy og drar nytte av selvlåsende rulleforskjeller denne maskinen er en ekte allrounder. Schwimmwagen brukes hovedsakelig som et liaison- eller rekognoseringskjøretøy og som et raskt middel til å evakuere de sårede.

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.

Bildegalleri av en Norsk Electric Canberra Mk.20, The English Electric Canberra is a British first-generation jet-powered medium bomber that was manufactured during the 1950s. It was developed by English Electric during the mid-to-late 1940s in response to a 1944 Air Ministry requirement for a successor to the wartime de Havilland Mosquito fast-bomber; amongst the performance requirements for the type was the demand for an outstanding high altitude bombing capability in addition to flying at high speeds, these were partly accomplished by making use of newly-developed jet propulsion technology. When the Canberra was introduced to service with the Royal Air Force (RAF), the type’s first operator, in May 1951, it became the service’s first jet-powered bomber aircraft.
