Álbum de 23 fotos walk-around de um «Merkava Howitzer Sholef»

Galeria de fotos de um Merkava Howitzer Sholef, Two prototypes of Sholef (“Slammer”, Hebrew slang for “Gunslinger”) 155 mm self-propelled howitzer with automatic loading system were built by Soltam in 1984–1986. The 45-ton vehicle had a long 155 mm gun barrel giving a range of 45+ km. Using GPS, inertial navigation, and an internal fire control computer, it was also capable of direct fire while on the move. It never entered production. The Slammer is a heavily armored artillery gun mounted on a modified Merkava Mk 1 chassis. Many of these vehicles are Merkava Mk 1 that were retired after the Merkava Mk 2 and Merkava Mk 3 came into service. The Slammer has a long 52-caliber gun barrel that allows +10% range. Reload speed may be decreased to 1 for one minute every 10 minutes through use of an automatic loader. Ammunition racks are large. The Slammer is ready for autonomous operation (without an FDC) if the target’s location is known within 15 seconds of a halt, using GPS, inertial navigation, and an internal fire control computer. The Slammer 155 mm self-propelled howitzer is based on a modified Merkava MBT chassis fitted with a new welded steel turret, designed by Soltam Systems. Development commenced in the 1970s. The project was considered of high national priority and incorporated the newest technological developments. Instead the Israeli Defense Forces selected an upgraded version of American M109 howitzer.

O SP 25pdr, rastreado, Sacristão foi um veículo de artilharia autopropulsado da Segunda Guerra Mundial. Foi baseado em versões canadenses do chassi de tanque americano M3 Lee e M4 Sherman, que entraram em produção no Canadá como Ram e Grizzly. Quando a produção de Sherman nos EUA se expandiu e a oferta não era mais um problema, em 1943 foi decidido mudar as linhas de produção canadenses para produzir o Sexton para dar ao Exército Britânico uma arma de artilharia móvel usando seu canhão Ordnance QF 25, que poderia disparar um projétil HE de 87,6 mm (3,45 pol) 11,5 kg (25 lb) ou um projétil perfurante de armadura. Encontrou uso no Exército Canadense e Britânico, bem como em vários outros impérios britânicos e forças associadas. Logo após a guerra, vários Grizzly e Sextons foram vendidos para Portugal, que os usou na década de 1980.

O F-86 Sabre norte-americano, às vezes chamado de Sabrejet, era um avião de caça transônico. Produzido pela Aviação Norte-Americana, o Sabre é mais conhecido como o primeiro caça de asa varrido dos Estados Unidos que poderia combater o MiG-15 soviético de asas semelhantes em lutas de alta velocidade sobre os céus da Guerra da Coreia (1950-1953). Considerado um dos melhores e mais importantes caças nessa guerra, o F-86 também é altamente avaliado em comparação com caças de outras épocas. Embora tenha sido desenvolvido no final da década de 1940 e estivesse desatualizado no final dos anos 50, o Sabre mostrou-se versátil e adaptável, e continuou como um caça de linha de frente em numerosas forças aéreas até que os últimos exemplos operacionais ativos foram aposentados pela Força Aérea Boliviana em 1994.

Galeria de fotos de um República F-84 Thunderjet, The Republic F-84 Thunderjet was an American turbojet fighter-bomber aircraft. Originating as a 1944 United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) proposal for a “day fighter”, the F-84 first flew in 1946. Although it entered service in 1947, the Thunderjet was plagued by so many structural and engine problems that a 1948 U.S. Air Force review declared it unable to execute any aspect of its intended mission and considered canceling the program. The aircraft was not considered fully operational until the 1949 F-84D model and the design matured only with the definitive F-84G introduced in 1951. In 1954, the straight-wing Thunderjet was joined by the swept-wing F-84F Thunderstreak fighter and RF-84F Thunderflash photo reconnaissance aircraft.

TipoTrator de Lagarta
ConstruídoDesconhecido

Galeria de fotos de um RSO M 75mm PAK, Raupenschlepper Ost, literally “Caterpillar Tractor East”, is more commonly abbreviated to RSO. This fully tracked, lightweight vehicle was conceived in response to the poor performance of wheeled and half-tracked vehicles in the mud and snow during the Wehrmacht’s first autumn and winter on the Soviet Front. The RSO was a contemporary with somewhat similar Allied full-tracked small artillery tractors in use in other armies (such as the Soviet STZ-5 “Stalingradec”, and the U.S. Army’s own M4 Tractor), mostly originated from the pre-war light to medium series of Vickers artillery tractors. Two variants of this vehicle were built: the basic cargo carrier, and a self-propelled antitank vehicle armed with a PaK 40 gun. Both shared the same chassis.

Galeria de fotos de um Rio Rooikat, The Rooikat (Afrikaans for “Caracal”; literally “Red cat”) is a wheeled armoured fighting vehicle built in South Africa for the South African Army. It was designed for combat reconnaissance and seek and destroy operations. Its secondary roles include combat support, anti-armour and anti-guerrilla operations. The Rooikat is intended for deep penetration missions, so the wheeled design was needed for speed and to counter sandy desert conditions that might slow tracked vehicles.
