paulbrook Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 (edited) Once upon a time Antwerp Bks (where those photos were taken) was the home of 3 Tank Transporter Squadron, and that square was full of Antars! In fact not far from there are the last remains of a set of overhead traffic lights from the road out of Soest ....

eddy8men Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 if you get on the ranges keep your eyes peeled for a couple of churchills and a conqueror, not sure which range or whether it's still active but they are still there rick ps don't shoot them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Herbert Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 I think that the one in the video is a 'Linked Ark' conversion. A war time Ark was too narrow for Cent and Conqueror to use so they made a twin one with one trackway on each Churchill and linked them together.

eddy8men Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 you are right david it is a link dog ark, the only other example had the ramp attachments cut off and was used as the basis for Montgomery's mk4 that dave Arnold completed on the iow. apparently he took a bit of stick for it for cutting up a rare vehicle but then again you don't see many mk4 gun tanks driving around either so I can't say I blame him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
