Bovington
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.

Glad you like it Win The exhibition tries to convey the story of a tank factory. In all honesty, I wasn't that much impressed, I am afraid it was a very ambitious goal, maybe a bit too much. Massimo

Yes it was, not to mention the amount of space it takes up. Did you get any shots of that unfinished scorpion in the background?

Interesting, thanks. Was it always like that or did they sandblast a rare prototype?
