Well first up I obvoiusly don't know for sure. But having said that we can make some educated guesses. The presumed threat would be long rod...
I wouldn't have a clue mate. The Canadian Leopard 1's recieved a couple of upgrades that I believe included both this type of technology and...
That's right. The plates have holes tailored to the expected threat, say 30mm sub calibre projectiles/long rod penetrators so that on impact with...
Apparently it doesn't (probably) best guess at this point is that's it's mostly perforated steel plates rather than any sort of composite. Of...
More bits and pieces Difficult to say how they would have done in Europe or anywhere else. They most likely theatre initially would have been...
That would be Puckapunyal's restored one, 8030. Not really sure, 8045? puts it outside the first 25 tanks which the army accepted, they never...
To blatantly steal a good idea from another forum (tgplanes.com) - if you have a particular favourite obscure AFV or prototype (like the Sentinal,...

A whole lot of them were captured by the British, about 6(? I think) or so were hand over to Australian forces comprising a mix of M11/39 and...
I wouldn't, and I don't think anybody else would either, expect you to vouch for it's accuracy, but two simple errors and some misleading...
The Leo always was light on armour, advances in ammo technology and the fact that the AS1s are going to be around 30 years old before they are...
I'd be careful about using the Australian purchase of M1s as an argument for their superiority, that particular decision was made without the...
Re: Hello, and apologies for my absence ! I wouldn't have bothered if I were you, you said yourself that you heard they were pushed off the...
You have to be a bit careful with how you measure the diameter and not all measurements are the same. Some refer to the actual ball bearing race,...
Hardly surprising since there wouldn't have been anyone on it. From memory for any Australian or New Zealand still in Europe at the time, the NZ...
I thought you might have, but since no one had mentioned it in this thread I thought I might just point it out anyway.
I don't actually know (hence the "?"), but I was under the impression that it did. It would sound a bit odd singing about one when you've got the...
