Please identiy uparmored APC
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.

I found this on the news. Obviously Brits in Iraq. But what's that APC and what's that uparmor package? It almost looks like a M113 with some sort of Raphael uparmor package. But I'm about 70% sure that I'm wrong on that vehicle I.D. [img]http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e171/mduplessis/BritAPC.jpg?t=1172011400[/img]

Its a Fv432 Mk 3 aka Bulldog. They are fitted with the EEAK armour package with some british enhancements. _________________ TTFN Jim If your not a member of JED then your not serious about anything military.. ********************* www.jedsite.info JED Military Equipment *********************

THAT's an old Fv432?!!! Jeepers, the base vehicle has entirely disappeared beneath the add-ons! I wonder if they're having any suspension/hp-ton ratio issues with all that extra added stuff.
