We begin today with a German Molch submarine, a one man crewed sub of the Second World War.
The Great Eastern Ramp was a ramp mounted onto a tank, deployed to provide a route over an obstacle.
Eatons was a department store chain in the country for over a century. Two plaques, honouring company employees who fought and died in World War One and World War Two, once were found in the company's flagship store in Toronto. When the chain went under several years ago, the plaques made their way here.
Deck guns for submarines. These aren't seen anymore, as submarines spend more time submerged, and these would drag on the vessel's speed.
Up above, a CF-100 Voodoo, which was the primary fighter-interceptor for the country for years.
This looks like a tank but is not. This is the M109A4+, a self propelled Howitzer, with the big field gun mounted onto the body of the vehicle.
Overhead is a UAV that was used in Afghanistan.
And here we have the M577A2 mobile command post.















Those tanks creep me out.
ReplyDeleteGood mix of military equipment here. Spending long days in tanks during battle must have been very tough mentally, physically and more.
