Also been there but sadly without the Priest, who should be there. Some discusions at the Brussels museum prevented us taking the Priest there ( sad story Crying or Very sad

).

Seen all of that, and a Chaffee from the Cavalerie museum, the Pz 68/88 from Zwijndrecht armour cars, a humber a lot of half tracks.

Maybe we should start a tread for who is going to what meeting, so we could meet for a drink and a lot off talking.

If I ask you guy's it's not so quiet at the site

So, to keep you all busy
I found an picture on an online photo album site and was wondering what it is
All I could figure out, is that it is based on the Leopard 2 chassis

Warning the picture is large 3900x2600
www.mijnalbum.nl/Grote...DG64SQ.jpg

Some who has an idea?
Also if some-one know's what it is, is it still in active service or is it turning into an museum piece?

Of special interrest is the RN 84-KP-00, in which KP means that it belongs to an supporting military branche
So it is not part of the army, airforce or navy

Michel

Just a normal Leopard 2A4 hull. The KP numbers are also normal. It can be 83-KP-xx, 84-KP-xx, 85-KP-xx and 86-KP-xx. In the past 84-KP-00 (serial is 12123) was from DMKL (Material Command). IIRC it is now from Maaldrift. Not active service anymore.

Picture of an (then) operational ''KP'' registred A5 in Bosnia

"In total, 5,746 Marmon-Herrington Armoured Cars were built. About 4,500 were used by South African units, while others were employed by British, Indian, New Zealand, Greek, Free French, Polish and Belgian forces."

Hi folks,

still working on the new version of the NLD AFV Reg

I have come across an picture of an armoured car at an Dutch museum
Could some one tell me what it is Confused

www.canadianalliedforc...seum32.jpg

It is at an museum called STICHTING CANADIAN ALLIED FORCES 1940 - 1945, at Groningen
website: www.canadianalliedforces.com/

The strange thing is that the vehicle has WW2 Polish armored division markings
