ArtistsRifles Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Note that this list should NOT include Berni's latest re-enactment accessories!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirhc Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 I'd say either Ferret Mk 1, Chieftain ARRV or CVRT Scimitar. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FV601 (R.I.P.) Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Wellllllllllllllllll I rather like the Bradley AFV and I guess the Leopard 2 isn't bad. The Israeli Marklara comes to mind as does the Swedish "S"Tank. Then of course there's the Centurion and lets not forget the Conqueror. Fox's are good as they're quick as are ferrets. But I have to stick with the quirkiness of the Saladin as my main choice but with the CVRT range coming a close second and if money and space is no object then it would be a Challenger 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtistsRifles Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Do you mean "Merkava" ??? Glad you had the "S" tank in there. Saw them many years ago in action (exercise!!) - weird and wonderful things..... Didn't think any found their way into private hands though????

ArtistsRifles Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 No probs John - only reason I knew is because it got mentioned elsewhere today! (one of the Israeli contractors working for us worked on the thing...) Weird design concept in it's own way - but a very effective machine........

Didn't think any found their way into private hands though???? I remember seeing photos of a load of them lined up somewhere after they'd been sold for scrap. I think there is one in the Littlefield collection, I don't know if anyone else managed to get hold of one though. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
