    Opinion on 'ARRSE' goes with you, I'm afraid my tank reccy doesn't go past the Cent's!!!
    Whoops, ARRSE says it is T653 (Chinese type 59) whatever they are!

    Re: quiz

    The Type 59 is the Chinese copy of the T-55.

    You can tell the Type 59 because it has 'Made in China' stamped on the bottom.

    Name that tank!

    Wake up at the back there! this thread has gone to sleep.
    So, I submit to you a top secret design from WW2. :lol:
    See, even the 'non-sense-of-humour' Germans knew that the Brits knocked off for tea!
    Or is just a myth?

    Continuing my theme of discovering the identity of vehicles for inclusion in the PMVR, what are these:

    1)
    [​IMG]

    2)
    [​IMG]

    3)
    [​IMG]

    4)
    [​IMG]

    5)
    [​IMG]


    I have definate suspicions about some of them, but would appreciate input from you knowledgable types.
