Commando
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

Anyone going near McCoy in the near future? I need a really comprehensive walkaround of the commando prototype there for a lecture later this year. _________________ TTFN Jim If your not a member of JED then your not serious about anything military.. ********************* www.jedsite.info JED Military Equipment *********************

I suspect Don & Joe D should have some pictures. Unfortunately Don's were posted on the old board, which is now totally gone Neil

That is the only shot that I have of the Commando. I still have all the pics I took back in 05.

JoeD might have some also have some pics as he spent a little time up there. I don't know if he took any of the Commando.

A bit small for my purposes but would maybe do in an emergency. I am after individual images of everything on the vehicle and may be persuaded to cough up mileage & expenses on this one....

I managed to locate 64 identifiable variants of the Commando. Have images of most of them but if anyone comes across any interesting images I would appreciate a copy...

Cool

Sorry Jim,
Dontos is right, I have quite a few of it which are quite large but they are stored on a CD at home Neutral

, Some pretty good top views too. Probably won't get access to them until late June Sad

, But when I do get home I'll have some pretty good pictures to post. In hindsight I should have backed all my pictures up on an external harddrive and took it with me. All I brought was my M60 stuff Rolling Eyes
