Here are a couple of photographs that I thought some of you might be interested in. I took them at the Artillery Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia. I have some more, but I particularly like these. I don't know what the mobile gun is. Maybe someone could tell me. I hope you enjoy them.

Pat,

I have downloaded some of these off the web, but would love some more.
I'm also planning a trip to their probably in September for the Airshow, and would love a chat about your visit (assuming you went) to aid in my trip to see things military whilst there.

Any chance of a discussion off line.

Hi Scott:

I sent an email with some information re: the armor photos. I would also be happy to have a conversation offline, if that is possible. Pat helped me with the uploading of the photos, as I was not very successful the first time that I tried. Armor is not my specialty, so, does anyone know what the mobile type gun is? I would be interested in learning about it.

The mobile gun is a 2S5 'Giatsint' 152mm SP gun.

Scott, have fun there! That is without a doubt one of the most awesome military museums in the world. Spectacular doesn't begin to cover it!
