News Pics of AFVs in the South Ossetia conflict (updated)
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.

Thanks Doug. Good points. I'll admit even I was stretching the pics/post rule... Sorry... Neil

This looks like a turret that has come thru the roof of a building. Am I mistaken? This site shows dead and wounded people, need a mod to say if it's o.k. to post a link.

- Dennis_Smith This site shows dead and wounded people, need a mod to say if it's o.k. to post a link. OK to post link, but with conspicuous warning. Have to think about those viewing from work and younger members that drop by.

Fascinating shots there, and many not for the faint of heart. Soldiers fight and die. Sometimes the end is not pretty either.

That turret "bomb" punching through concrete slabs is a puzzler. It had to going down fast enough to break through the first one without slowing down. I've never seen something like that in pictures before.

Do the Georgians write with a different alphabet than Russians? It almost looks like Thai, but of course it can't be.
