  1. Some of it is sitting packed in Drill halls ready for back loading, last I saw the PRC 351 used was middle of last year....Dont see it getting used now as the batteries will be knackered after sitting for near a year.....
  2. Er Max Towing Weight.... with the numbers part missing ?
  3. and the last couple.... :cry: Sorry if this has been done before....
  4. Hello Troops... Was over in Germany last few weeks and managed to take a few pics of the Hulks around the ranges, including an area with a few interesting wee collection are off the side of "K" range.... Oh and a Chieftain and Cent outside 20 Brigade HQ in Normandy Barracks.
  5. Not sure that fit of kit is a great idea.........Going by what I saw of RAF Regt wagons in Iraq..... seems we dont learn hellish much by experience. Just a thought like........:-|
  6. Hi MartynHere are some shots of the Wimk's we had in 2002/03 in Afghanistan, these were early models were inherited from 4 Lancs and the SBS before them.....Due to the G5 stance on the NSE at Kabul at the time we only mounted the GPMG on the top mount and on picture 4 you can see the LMG mounted on the commanders mount...mounting pin are in the same place.... of course this all changed later :undecided:
  7. Some ECM mounts (but not kit nor what it can do) are in public domain See "Millitary Machines international Jan 12".....And I know what and cannot be said on this issue so no OPSEC issue.
  8. Looks like a ECM Mount to me...for the Antennas
  9. Great link, did you notice how much better the S boat sits at speed.... :blush:
  10. "Catherine II" Basrah 2006 on the bonnet under the idiot fixing the wiper.......and no the 9mm was not loaded :blush: oh and Catherine I was a WiMK based out of Camp Souter in Kabul...... Catherine III was a Yamaha Quad based in PB Khaamar Helmand last year, thus not worth a pic (but still wish i did)........See guys its still going on.. :-D:-D:-D
  11. I can assure you there was no harm meant by the post, I just thought she was an interesting old bird, we still had them cutting about in service 20 years ago.....
  12. Hello, was out near Lochearnhead in Perthshire and found MK2 LR Ambulance sitting in a Field next to the Watersport Center, poor old Girl looks as if she has been there for a while...
  13. I see its been the focus of a few upset RSM's due to the big question of tucked in with Regt Stable belt worn or wear out without belt........
  14. Nice work, a great big boys toy if I ever saw one :cool2:
  15. Only thing I can say against it is its a bit on the heavy side, I bought one of the light weight ones for under my Armour, I know it looks a bit chav having a MTP Shell jacket but works a treat in a Helmand Winters Morn :cool2:
  16. Same in My lot...DAF's turned up then buggered off back to be replaced soon with MANs..I will miss the old Bedfords, even though they were a pig on long trips! Wonder how long we get to keep the MANs before they cull us eh ? :wow:
  17. I,m about 90% sure there is a Hulk on the ranges at La Courtine......not on the AT range but in one of the forests, my battery was out in my camera, but saw it large as life.
  18. Oh i dont know, a few worse nick onces have been lifted out, depends where she is and how much someone wants her....Crackin post never knew about this one at all :-D
