Ontos 'Spotting'
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.

...alas, no guns. Just think, they could have had a feature..."The Thing Meets The Thing" (Well, OK, it's five years too late, but anything's possible in Hollyweird)

Thanks Don for the really great video. Although not a 'tank' but truly a unique combat vehicle like no other! Jeff

- Doug_Kibbey Great vid, Don! BTW, who does the music? Artist and album, por favor.... uh.....The opening is 'Fanfare for a Common Man' (Copeland written) preformed by Emerson, Lake & Palmer. The follow on song title and artist, I can't seem to remember. It came of a multi-artist double disc. I'll try to locate it...
