Canadians sending M113's to Afghanistan
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.

Hi Jens! Hi Folks! - Jens_O_Mehner I'd suggest taking a close look again, Roy, just compare the width of the pads... Looks like they run from sprocket tooth to sprocket tooth. I guess my old eyes need a better picture to see the difference. Sgt, Scouts Out! _________________ "You can never have too much reconnaissance." General G.S. Patton Jr.

Here are close ups of the tracks of the TLAVs in Afghanistan from the Combat Camera photos.

A couple of years apart/a different generation of track. This one has band track and is in AFG. Note all the clutter on the front panel too. www.combatcamera.force...mbatcamera

And just to keep the discussion lively, check out the Fitter's version !! Original track, extended track length AND an open rear superstructure. You don't see these versions every day. www.combatcamera.force...mbatcamera

Dang!! That track is too narrow for either of the older versions. And now I've used up my one mistake for July.

I think I still got 10 left so, I'm confident I can make it to August without using my allocation. I thought that track was different. Been a little to busy to jump in on the conversation. Don
