Barely-injured 0 Posted March 3, 2010 Yup defiantly to the offtopic section. Nice pictures and video non the less. Can someone explain to me what kind of leo is in picture 13. I cant read that language :o. seems like a really interesting idea. First time i have seen a tank used in recon in such a way, if that is indeed what it is for.

It's a leopard II tank, that part should be easy to read and incidentally also the only part that describes the actual nature of the tank :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JdB 151 Posted March 3, 2010 It looks like a Norwegian Leopard 2A6 (they bought them 2nd hand from the Netherlands). The camera in the barrel is for simulating the firing of the main gun, similar to the Miles system for small arms (the yellow objects on the breach of small arms). The camo net is pretty standard. Don't really see how you thought the tank is involved in recon tasks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

almanzo 144 Posted March 17, 2010 actually its the Camera that threw me off there :D. didn't know that such a method exists to simulate tank firing. Thanks for the info. The tanks (modeled on top of cars) at airsoft event Berget uses a simular system in fact :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
