Panther (1)

26 Jun 2023 100
This Panther (Panzer VI Ausf A) is in the American Heritage Museum (Hudson, MA). It was originally in the Littlefield collection. It was recovered from the River Czarna in Poland into which it was scuttled in 1945. The restoration was quite astonishing. Pentax K-3iii, SMC Pentax-DA* 50-135mm f/2.8 lens.

A Mark IV male tank in the Tank Museum, Dorset. A "male" tank had artillery guns in the side sponsons rather than machine guns. The bundle of branches on the top is a "fascine" intended to help the tank bridge a trench.

A BMP 1 Armoured Personnel Carrier

26 Aug 2012 1 438
This one has a somewhat non-standard turret but the basic machine is a Soviet BMP 1. I'm not certain this one would meet the emissions test! There is an article about these machines in the September 2012 issue of Classic Military Vehicle magazine. Seen at the Military and Flying Machines show in Essex. Pentax K20D, SMC Pentax-DA* 50-135mm f/2.8
