Especially the 2a5 and later, with that angled turret armour, just gorgeous

I've been thinking about getting back into modelling and that would be one the first ones I'd do

Jerry builds a nice tank indeed

I don’t think he’s the nerdy type. Maybe only when he’s in the rascal. Would he be able to drive the rascal out onto the battlefield?

The K-2 Black Panther is a beauty too.

Wondering if any of those make it to Ukraine at some point.

Made by Hyundai, by the way. So if we get a few in the Canadian army my wife would be pretty comfortable backing one into a parked car at the grocery store if it ever came down to it.

Did the Russians destroy the bio-terror labs that the Ukrainians or Azovs had (according to the far-right people)?

Heard on the radio this morning that Canada is discussing sending 4 tanks at this point.

Send them to Russia, lol!

Was doing a bit of armchair research last night about the abrams, and their new shells are pretty interesting:



These amp rounds seem crazy.. the airburst shots may be deadly against russian infantry

This looks like either a response to Zelensky's birthday, or a hissy fit about the western tanks.

Either way, all missiles in the Kyiv area were downed, unfortunately there was still casualties as a result of the downed missiles.

Someone also caught smoking in Kursk hours later

LOL. Whoops really got that in the wrong thread! But I'll leave it, since it is from the war room.

Hey...I'd be all for air-dropping Shandro into Moscow on a mission to hunt Putin.

Direct Tyler to Putin's driveway, and let him take it form there.

And then you could do that stupid thing they do at baseball games where they make a fan put his forehead on a bat and spin around and then run?

Shandro on the Kremlin driveway....just spin him up and let him rip!

I mean, he'd likely be murdered almost instantly but I'd call that a Win/Win. Or he becomes Putin's new Tea-fetching boy.

I hope these battle tanks help bring a swift end to the war.

What right or justification does Russia have to lob missles at Kyiv when the battlefield is then the East? (Rhetorical Q)
