Thanks for the pic McKenna. I was a medic in an armored battalion when the Abrams came into line. The vehicle in the right hand corner with the red crosses is the one I lived in for awhile.
You bring back alot of memories. I remember us standing in the desert of Texas cheering when these tanks roared through a river at full steam. The commander standing out of the hatch giving a fist to show they're better.

Thank you. You've given this old boy good memories.

Now, back to acting like a kid again. lmao

 

[McKenna]

Thank you. You've given this old boy good memories.

Awww..... Glad I could spark a few good memories. Thanks for sharing one of them!

The proper form on this thread is:

TANKS FOR THE MEMORIES.

By the way, is it just me or does anyone else get the feeling that photo has certain phallic overtones?

Heavy metal turns me on. Although the challenger's somehow sexier.

I like the Leopard II better meself. Always liked German equipment.

But the Abrams is a nice piece of machinery.

For me the ultimate tank is the Russian T-94.

If you examine the picture in the link carefully, you will see that a T-94 crew can always say, "mine is longer than yours!"

No sweat. Just remember, there's phallic, and then there's PHALLIC.

LOL LOve those triple 16 inchers..... In Nam the New Jersey was our bestest friend....

 

[oggbashan]

The Japanese had to go one better...

... with the Yamato and the Musashi and their 18.1 inch guns.

Or Gibraltar - the Army installed a 36 inch muzzle loader in the early 19th century. It was never fired in anger.

And the absolute meanest god damn airplane ever made, the A-10 Warthog.

A collection of parts flying in loose formation, but it gets the job done.

Love the Warthog. Ugliest plane in existence, but again, it gets the job done.

Yeah I dig Soviet and Russian armor. I didn't know they'd built anything more advanced than the T-90 though, which is an updated T-72 I believe.

It probably translates to something along the lines of boys and stupid and weird.
