WOW, its been a while since i met you mofos,readiing AS WE SPEAK. What Year are we on ?

Get a good suit, sound posh, be semi-fit. As long as your not a regular you should get in.

Typing one handed as i am currently fist chewing.

My thinking was, instead of a completely new round we could modify existing rounds with some sort of timing device plugged on the base of a...

Damn this is right up my ally but i'm too drunk to see my keyboard. Firstly, I worked with the danish in the sandy place and they are happy with there ammo mix (canister and other stuff my viking...

I have had a similar problem with the PTT's for CR2 but not on a wagon. Was it always the same correction to be applied that went wrong? could be an error in crew drill in not ending in elevation? I...

Who is your dad? PM me. What stage in your recruitment are you?

Correction, Preeeeeepair to halt, haaaaaaaaalt!!!!

D&M Is so backwards.

Unfortunately its is, same goes for if your gunner traverses through random objects like trees, street lights or even land rovers, it all comes back on the commander.

The worst thing you can possibly do is brake down on the last day of a Medman. last through the washdown, last through the maintenance bay and worst of all you miss the battlegroup photo and wacky...

The best kit i have is a 120mm Tupperware tub can hold a shed load of Yorkshire tea tea bags, a few days before end-ex they are worth a fortune. my turret looks more like a tea room then a tank.

Ah, so less diameter because of the BBs equates to less penetration, so spin really is an important factor then.

I have never seen a British tank do that!

Well all they need now is a decent brew kit and they are set.

I have a plan, we stop feeding our children, dig up a few roads, conduct a huge media campaign and ask India for aid, freeing up the rest of the budget to spend on the military, we too could have a...

I read a while ago we can fire their ammo but it is not of the highest quality, maybe a technology exchange of our ammo tech for their guns and ammunition, both sides benefit. anybody here had any...

Was that not the reason CR2 had a rifled barrel, not because out of what was effective but because when it was designed it was supposed to compliment rather then supplant older tank designs, so it...

Then you could have just pointed that out to me instead of making shitty comments, like the first reply you my made to my first comment on here in years was especially blunt and condescending. I'm at...

didn't a carl gustaf put a hole in an Argentinean submarine in 1982?

Cloth belts in the 80s? did you have a PIAT slung over the hatch also? i had no idea we were still using that sort of tech in the 80s. I am starting to feel really young yes.

Sigs is a good choice, you could end up anywhere, one of those jobs that everyone needs. well you will have time to choose later on anyway.

Its good to chat with the lads down there, just to get...

Ha lol, i thought i was missing something. I was just about to start frantically googling!

Slat armor does nothing for HESH i'm afraid, just breaks straight through.

Done the same really, maths is ok but my spelling is horrendous (i got a red swiggly line under horrendous, go spell check!). I have some good planning exercise books i got of the intertwizzle which...

LOL you have completely lost me, I know the L94 and the L37 but whats an L9?

How are you finding light role? what do you prefer? no more BATUS for you, off to Kenya where the beer is even...

I think it was the french who had a HEAT round for one of its tanks (not sure caliber) that had ball bearings between the outer case and the warhead so although the round was spinning the warhead...

So CR1 had a separate sight for TI (as in internal) so to flick from TI to day you moved your head? while we are on the subject, does anyone know the reason why they moved the TI from the side of the...

82?????? why did we hold onto them so long? i had no idea it was that late.

Lol i did, but where did you get L9 from?

Well i was going to say L37 but i couldn't remember what L it was lol

Check you out you old sweat! :-) Did you ever get to have a go on a scorpion? How did the conversion go, its not like jumping from a rover to a snatch its a completely different system, what did your...

Dont get me wrong, good little gun, but what a pain in the arrse to fix if it goes tits up. Imagine stripping an L7 because of a stoppage.

Ohhhhhh, you work for the MOD?

Well that certainly was nice of her, you cant go wrong with a freebie from the queen.

Been ready for it for a while now, its been a pain in the arrse getting it...

I'm coming down from Catterick but i have family in Wiltshire so going to stay over i think. What you doing in Germany?

CR1 sounds way too complicated. put the red dot on the target, lase and fire simplzzzz. Is that a chally1 sight in your avitar pic?

After some comic squinting at my paperwork you appear to be correct. Where are traveling from?

I probably should have read all the posts but hey what can you do, is there anyone on 708? 13-14 March?

30cal browning? as in WW2 30cal? when did we switch over?

Ah, so it could be 30mm then.

Danish perhaps?

Good pic, is that 105mm for the cent? i thought it would be smaller!
