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.

Very nice pictures, Paul. Just two notes: a. The MG in the last page is an MG34. b. The F-86's SN corresponds to an A model, but the aircraft has certain features of the F-86F-2 - windshield from late E model onwards, enlarged gun blast panel with two guns per side, the latter meaning it was probably used in Project GUNVAL in Korea. _________________ 1/72 and 1/76 scale fanatic.

You are welcome. I was amazed to see such a rare aircraft (IIRC about ten were made for operational trials in Korea and some ended up in the ANG). _________________ 1/72 and 1/76 scale fanatic.

Great set of photos. The two ship models are the USS Ronald Reagan, CVN-76 & the USS New Jersey, BB62. The artillery piece, centre of photo 295, is a Japanese model 41 (1908) 75-mm infantry gun.
