FV105 Sultan is a British Army command and control vehicle based on the CVR(T) platform. It has a higher roof than the APC variants, providing a more comfortable "office space" inside. This contains a large vertical map board and desk along one side, with a bench seat for three people facing it. Forward of this are positions for the radio operator with provision for four radios and vehicle commander, whose seat can be raised which also gave his access to the pintle mounted G.P.M.G.

Five Sabres in very very poor condition. These are probably the last to be sold !

I understand they are the first 4 of a batch of 8 to come from ABRO Donnington. The Scimitar would not start ... however I did stay long enough to see a Spartan off loaded.

HELLO MR DONOVAN

 

nice short clip good to see it l do not remember getting a royalty fee l expect its in the post

 

regards wally

Cheers Wally... you know... you just can't rely on the post these days !!

The Stallion was the prototype for the Stormer based Shielder. A small number were built and sent to the Gulf in 1991. At least 3 survive.

Ive just watched the video for the third time ,very good, turn the volume up and listen to the Detroits in the M10 wound up and on song !!

Agreed... fantastic sound. Regards Paul

Great video,very artistic !.......

Thanks...

Thanks guys, we worked hard for 4 days, we sourced an engine-and a nice 1 to :-) , dampers, track and a drivers seat. I collected all in a week up to the show, even getting the tracks delivered direct to the show itself. For 2 guys who have never worked on a cvrt it was daunting, but we figured there would be so much advice available it was to good an opportunity to miss, so we went for it! Thank you to Timbo and Chris for their help. Don't get me wrong its not finished, but we had a ball:-)

Brilliant effort guys... !

A fantastic effort well done to Barry and the guys. I have to admit I was a little dubious they would get it done from a standing start...

 

Also shows the benefit of having a quality engine supplier!

:laugh:

lol...!

Very nice. For the record it's a 606 unloading an Autocar U-7144T. There was a Federal 94x43 at the show however.

Thanks for that... I've updated the info on YouTube. Paul

Did not pick up the fuel starvation problem ?

Sounded to me as if the driver was pumping the throttle at times to keep it moving.... noticeable in the first shot as it passes the camera and starts to go down the straight. Normally I would expect it to be hammering round and great speed..... ?

Short Video highlighting the very noisy cooling fan... Bearings knackered... to quote Chris McMillan sounds "like bricks in a tumble drier" Note to self : Order New Bearings !!

50 Shades of NATO Green... well that would be a great story.... sadly its the story of the Sabres colour scheme.... Painted the two o/side hull bins down the shed... fitted them today (along with the Turret Hatches) and they are a much darker green than the rest of the vehicle..... what a pain.

What do the neighbours think? Or are you just accepted as the local nutter?:-D

Local Nutter.... every road should have one !!

Beverley Museum of Army Transport 23rd March1994. A short video showing some of the armoured vehicles.. Abbot, Scorpion, Ferret, Saladin, Diamond T tank transporter etc plus the Blackburn Beverley Transport Aircraft.

This is the one made running at W_P I presume=

 

One of my favourite modern tracked vehicles.

 

Well done.

Hi.... no ... this one has not been to W&P yet.... !

The BRDM-2 (Boyevaya Razvedyvatelnaya Dozornaya Mashina, Боевая Разведывательная Дозорная Машина), literally "Combat Reconnaissance/Patrol Vehicle" †[4]) is an amphibious armoured patrol car used by Russia and the former Soviet Union

Great replica vehicles and Soldiers cross a small bridge.... if anyone can provide a more accurate description for this video it would be much appreciated !

The Ural-4320 is a general purpose off-road 6x6 truck, produced at the Ural Automotive Plant in Miass, Russia for use in the Russian army. Introduced in 1976, it is still in production today. The wheel arrangement for the Ural-4320 was designed for transporting cargo, people and trailers on all types of roads and terrain. It also serves as a launching platform for the BM-21 "Grad" rocket launcher.

The Ural-4320 is a diesel-powered development of the Ural-375D.
