sirhc Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 I'm afraid I can't help much. My lists show that 49AT18 and 49AT19 have survived, 10FD67 and 10FD68 have survived and 10FD72 is still around. Can't help with info on your old vehicles though. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marmite!! Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 That's interesting... been told numerous times that the Fox was never fitted with any pintle mounted weapons:confused: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpltomo Posted August 2, 2009 Author Share Posted August 2, 2009 It was a un offical mod we did to them using spare spotlight brakets. As you can see they work very well. And looked good on the range with the coax gpmg going as well. It was centre mounted betwwen the two turets so either commander or gunner could use it. We also had the bigger artic bins fitted to the back of the turret. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cpltomo Posted August 9, 2009 Author Share Posted August 9, 2009 (edited) Looking forward to that too, not seen any of Fox in service Artic bin looks a great mod! What Sqn were you BTW? Yea it came in handy the artic bin i got mixed up the artic bin was fitted to simiter and sabre. The fox had the otis bin on the back of the turret. Was in "c" sqn (the Cheshire Yeomanry) Queens own yeomanry. Til the big defense shack up they were re rolled with the rmly and made to a Mbt chally 2 regiment. Also put some pics of fox in my gallery. Going though all my old pics at the moment got a far few so will tak ea bit to sort out.
