CaptainJack!

Object 764, developed in 1964 and still in use in some areas/countries today.

All hail the BMP-1!

Many thanks go to CaptainJack's Investigative Service's Corp for the pic, but.

Is this a 'Guess what this is' photo contest, or can we take cdave's word for it?

...smell of all that beer might go to his brain he does know his AFVs...


Aye, the beer might be there, or a small shot (or three) of Tequilia! :-)

As for the truth to the post above, it was a response to the mis-quoted Merkava comment. Can thee not see the sultle curves of the side skirt attachment......
Can thee not see the beautiful amphibius dished road wheels from the Soviet press shops....
And lastly, can thee not see the lovely shades of Soviet Green peeking through here and there


This is of course, a favorite subject!

Dave
perhaps I should get out more........ #:-)
